  1. 21. Spin ice and demagnetising theory

    Author : Mikael Twengström; Patrik Henelius; Peter Holdsworth; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Geometrical frustration; spin ice; Monte Carlo simulations; demagnetising theory; special temperatures; Ewald summation; neutron scattering; structure factors; loop algorithms; parallel tempering; frustrated ferromagnets; equilibration issues; long-range interactions; exchange interactions.; Fysik; Physics;

    Abstract : Frustration, or the inability to simultaneously minimise all local interactions is, a phenomenon occurring in a broad number of physical systems. We will in this thesis focus on a class of frustrated ferromagnetic materials called spin ices and how both numerical and experimental techniques can be used to understand their properties.

  2. 22. Hopf and Frobenius algebras in conformal field theory

    Author : Carl Stigner; Jürgen Fuchs; Jens Fjelstad; Ingo Runkel; Karlstads universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; conformal field theory; category theory; Hopf algebra; Frobenius algebra; coends; mapping class group; defect lines; factorization constraints; Physics; Fysik;

    Abstract : There are several reasons to be interested in conformal field theories in two dimensions. Apart from arising in various physical applications, ranging from statistical mechanics to string theory, conformal field theory is a class of quantum field theories that is interesting on its own. First of all there is a large amount of symmetries. READ MORE

  3. 23. Cosmoparticle Physics and String Theory

    Author : Stefan Sjörs; Marcus Berg; Joseph Conlon; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Supersymmetry; dark matter; cosmology; inflation; modifications of gravity; string theory; flux compactifications; perturbative string theory; teoretisk fysik; Theoretical Physics;

    Abstract : This thesis deals with phenomenological and theoretical aspects of cosmoparticle physics and string theory. There are many open questions in these topics. In connection with cosmology we would like to understand the detailed properties of dark matter, dark energy, generation of primordial perturbations, etc. READ MORE

  4. 24. From Branes to Brains : On M-theory and Understanding Thermodynamics

    Author : Tom W. Adawi; Jon Ogborn; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Physics; M-theory; p-branes; supersymmetry; duality; heat and temperature; phenomenography; context; Physics Education Research; Fysik; Fysikens didaktik; Physics; Fysik; Materiefysik; Physics of Matter; Physics with specialization in Physics Education; Fysik med inriktning mot fysikens didaktik;

    Abstract : This thesis is concerned with research in both physics and physics education, and is divided into two parts.Part IString theory has been the leading candidate over the past few years for a theory that unifies all the fundamental forces of nature. READ MORE

  5. 25. Aspects of Wrapped Branes in String and M-Theory

    Author : Ling Bao; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Instantons; Algebraic symmetries; String theory;

    Abstract : This thesis consists of an introductory text together with five appended research papers. The Ariadne's thread through the whole thesis is various effects coming from high-dimensional p-branes in various subsectors of string and M-theory. READ MORE
