Criticality and novel quantum liquid phases in Ginzburg--Landau theories with compact and non-compact gauge fields
(Doktoravhandlinger ved NTNU, 1503-8181; 2005:144, Doctoral thesis, 2005)We have studied the critical properties of three-dimensional U(1)-symmetric lattice gauge theories. The models apply to various physical systems such as insulating phases of strongly correlated electron systems as well as ... -
Fiskebiologiske undersøkelser i Auravassdraget. Årsrapport 2005
(NINA rapport;115, Research report, 2006)Formålet med denne undersøkelsen er å overvåke utviklingen av bestandene av laks og sjøør-ret i Auravassdraget. Resultatene skal danne grunnlag for å evaluere de tiltakene som er gjen-nomført som kompensasjon for negative ... -
Modeling the Economics and Market Adoption of Distributed Power Generation
(Doctoral Theses at NTNU, 1503-8181; 2006:93, Doctoral thesis, 2006)After decades of power generating units increasing in size, there is currently a growing focus on distributed generation, power generation close to energy loads. Investments in large-scale units have been driven by economy ... -
Genetic, molecular and functional studies of RAC GTPases and the WAVE-like regulatory protein complex in Arabidopsis thaliana.
(Doktoravhandlinger ved NTNU, 1503-8181; 2004:68, Doctoral thesis, 2006)Small GTP-binding proteins are molecular switches that serve as important regulators of numerous cellular processes. In animal and plant cells, the Rho family of small GTPases participate in e.g. organisation of the actin ... -
Entanglement and its applications in systems with many degrees of freedom
(Doktoravhandlinger ved NTNU, 1503-8181; 2006:209, Doctoral thesis, 2006)Entanglement are the non-local correlations permitted by quantum theory, believed to play a fundamental role in a quantum computer. We have investigated these correlations in a number of theoretical models for condensed ... -
Sorption-enhanced steam methane reforming in fluidized bed reactors
(Doktoravhandlinger ved NTNU, 1503-8181; 2006:116, Doctoral thesis, 2006)Hydrogen is considered to be an important potential energy carrier; however, its advantages are unlikely to be realized unless efficient means can be found to produce it without generation of CO2. Sorption-enhanced steam ... -
