  2. 6. Reactions with relativistic radioactive beams and gamma multiplicities

    Author : Simon Lindberg; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; R3B; Calibration; Radioactive Beams; FAIR; Gamma Multiplicity; Analysis; Virtual Alignment; GSI;

    Abstract : Experiments with relativistic radioactive beams are used to study the properties of exotic nuclei. The experimental setup used in this thesis is a complex system of detectors for identifying and measuring the 4-momenta of all incoming nuclei and products created when the nuclei impinge on a reaction target.

  4. 7. Direct writing with an MeV proton beam: Development and Applications

    Author : Vaida Auzelyte; Kärnfysik; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; direct writing; beam control; Physics; Fysik; Teknik; Technological sciences; proton beam; lithography; Fysicumarkivet A:2006:Auželytė;

    Abstract : This thesis presents work aimed at the development and application of a new lithography system for direct material patterning with the MeV proton beam at the Lund Nuclear Microprobe (NMP) facility. MeV proton beams are advantageous for use as a patterning tool due to their deep and well defined penetration through matter and their highly local energy deposition. READ MORE

  5. 8. Implementation of MRI gel dosimetry in radiation therapy

    Author : Sven Bäck; Malmö Medicinsk strålningsfysik; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; oncology; Cytology; uncertainty; detector; dosimeter; ferrous ions; gel dosimetry; magnetic resonance imaging; monomers; polymerisation; proton; treatment planning verification; radiation therapy; cancerology; Cytologi; onkologi; cancer;

    Abstract : Gel dosimetry was used together with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to measure three-dimensional absorbed dose distributions in radiation therapy. Two different dosimeters were studied: ferrous- and monomer gel, based on the principles of radiation-induced oxidation and polymerisation, respectively. READ MORE

  6. 9. Laser-Driven Particle Acceleration - Improving Performance Through Smart Target Design

    Author : Matthias Burza; Atomfysik; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; wakefield; ultra-relativistic; ultra-intense; TNSA; Terawatt; sheath; proton; polarimetry; plasma mirror; plasma; Petawatt; particle; oscillation; Normarski; micromachining; LWFA; laser; interferometry; electron; contrast; acceleration; bubble; Fysicumarkivet A:2012:Burza;

    Abstract : Laser-driven particle acceleration makes use of sub-picosecond, pulsed, high-power laser systems, capable of producing intensities ~10^{19} W/cm^2 at the laser focus to form plasmas, and use ultra-relativistic and nonlinear dynamics to produce quasistatic acceleration fields. This allows electrons to be accelerated to ~100 MeV over sub-centimetre distances, while protons may be accelerated to the ~10 MeV regime. READ MORE

  7. 10. A Fast Pixelated Thermal-Neutron Detector

    Author : Emil Rofors; Kärnfysik; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; SoNDe; thermal-neutron detector; GS20 scintillator; Li-glass; H12700A MAPMT; position-dependent response; alpha-particle; proton; deuteron; neutron; ESS; SKADI;

    Abstract : This thesis presents the study of a position-sensitive scintillation-based detector called the Solid-State Neutron Detector (SoNDe). SoNDe is being developed for cold- and thermal-neutron detection at the small-angle neutron scattering (SANS) instrument SKADI at the European Spallation Source (ESS), currently under construction in Lund, Sweden.
