  2. 1. Role of charge and spin fluctuations and their interplay in solids : A Green’s function approach

    Author : Tor Sjöstrand; Matematisk fysik; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Green’s function; correlations; collective excitations; screened interaction; electric polarization; orbital and spin magnetization; magnon-phonon interaction; Fierz ambiguity; time-dependent exchange-correlation potential;

    Abstract : Due to the large number of electrons, solid state physics boils down to many-body approximations in which only selected types of collective excitations are taken into account, guided by the emergent properties of the material under study. In this thesis, the collective excitations of primary interest are electronic charge and spin fluctuations(plasmons and magnons) and nuclear charge fluctuations (phonons). READ MORE

  4. 2. First principles methods for electronic structure calculations of solids

    Author : Martin Springer; Matematisk fysik; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; screened interaction; T-matrix; vertex function; GW approximation; Green function; density functional theory; gradient expansion; order N method; Physics; Fysik;

    Abstract : A straightforward gradient expansion of the exchange energy of a perturbed electron gas is performed. Studied perturbations range from very weak to those that produce, e.g., a silicon-like band structure with a band gap. READ MORE

  5. 3. Interfacial Properties of Lipid Liquid Crystalline Nanoparticles

    Author : Pauline Vandoolaeghe; Fysikalisk kemi; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; interaction; adsorption; surface; peptide; bilayer; cubic phase; monoolein; cubosome; lipid; liquid crystalline nanoparticles; ellipsometry; neutron reflectivity; QCM-D; SAXD;

    Abstract : Lipid liquid crystalline nanoparticles are studied for their potential as biocompatible carriers for pharmaceutical, food and cosmetic applications. Their potential as delivery vehicles is due to their nanometer size, their controllable structure and physical properties and their large carrying capacity of a wide range of molecules. READ MORE

  6. 4. Mechanisms of microbial-host interaction during asymptomatic bacteriuria

    Author : Jenny Grönberg Hernandez; immunologi och glykobiologi - MIG Avdelningen för mikrobiologi; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Asymptomatic bacteriuria; Urinary tract infection; Escherichia coli 83972; IRF3; TLR4; Evolution; host response; promoter polymorphisms; transcription; P fimbriae; Type 1 fimbriae;

    Abstract : Urinary tract infections (UTIs) present an interesting and relevant model for studying microbial adaptation. After establishing significant numbers, the bacteria either cause severe disease, or an asymptomatic carrier state resembling the normal flora at other mucosal sites. READ MORE

  7. 5. Analysis of the interaction between HIV-1 protease and inhibitors : Applications for drug discovery

    Author : Per-Olof Markgren; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Biochemistry; Biokemi; Biochemistry; Biokemi; Biokemi; Biochemistry;

    Abstract : The aims of this study were to identify and characterize inhibitors of HIV-l protease aspotential leads in a drug discovery process, and to develop improved methods for suchcharacterization. More than 300 inhibitors, including linear and cyclic peptidomimetictransition state analogs and Cu2+, were analyzed. READ MORE
