  1. 1. Improving the understanding of cloud radiative heating

    Author : Erik Johansson; Abhay Devasthale; Michael Tjernström; Annica M. L. Ekman; Robert Pincus; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; clouds; radiative effects; upper troposphere-lower stratosphere; atmospheric circulation; remote sensing; atmosfärvetenskap och oceanografi; Atmospheric Sciences and Oceanography;

    Abstract : Clouds play an essential role in regulating Earth’s radiation budget by reflecting and absorbing energy at different spectra. As they interact with radiation, they can radiatively heat or cool the adjacent atmosphere and the surface. READ MORE

  2. 2. Excitonic effects in ZnO

    Author : Shula Chen; Irina Buyanova; Weimin Chen; Ivan Ivanov; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Zinc Oxide (ZnO) is an extensively researched II-VI wide bandgap semiconductor material. As a promising material for future optoelectronic and spintronic applications, it continues to attract enormous amount of interest. READ MORE

  3. 3. Quantum dynamical effects in complex chemical systems

    Author : S. Karl-Mikael Svensson; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Quantum dynamics; Radiative association; Classical Wigner method; Feynman path integral; Reaction rate constants; Wigner phase space;

    Abstract : When using mathematical models to computationally investigate a chemical system it is important that the methods used are accurate enough to account for the relevant properties of the system and at the same time simple enough to be computationally affordable. This thesis presents research that so far has resulted in three published papers and one unpublished manuscript. READ MORE

  4. 4. Investigating aerosol effects on stratocumulus clouds through large-eddy simulation

    Author : Ines Bulatovic; Annica Ekman; Caroline Leck; Ilona Riipinen; Daniel Grosvenor; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; aerosol particles; stratocumulus; mixed-phase clouds; cloud microphysics; cloud radiative effects; Arctic; Arctic amplification; LES; aerosolpartiklar; stratusmoln; underkylda vattendroppar och iskristaller; molnmikrofysik; molnstrålningseffekter; Arktis; ”large-eddy simulation”; Atmospheric Sciences and Oceanography; atmosfärvetenskap och oceanografi;

    Abstract : Clouds have a large impact on Earth’s radiative budget by reflecting, absorbing and re-emitting radiation. They thus play a critical role in the climate system. Nevertheless, cloud radiative effects in a changing climate are highly uncertain. READ MORE

  5. 5. Theoretical Studies of Atomic Structure, Radiative Transitions and Interference Effects

    Author : Martin Andersson; Fysiska institutionen; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Naturvetenskap; Natural science; Computational physics; Zeeman; Transition rate; Lifetime; Hyperfine structure; Interference; Atomic structure;

    Abstract : Theoretical calculations concerning the advanced understanding of atomic structure and transitions has been performed for some atomic systems. The importance of different types of correlation depending on system has been investigated both using relativistic and non-relativistic quantum mechanics. READ MORE
