A comparison of Gravity Wave Parameters derived from the Analysis of a Three-Field Photometer with Imagers
(Master thesis, 2015)A method for preprocessing and analysing a few select fields in airglow intensity images from an all-sky imager was developed and utilized. Waves detected with a three-field analysis were compared with those waves ... -
A comparison of two parallel solution schemes for the advection-diffusion equation - Velocity guided random walk of paticles vs finite volume discretization on Cartesian grid
(Master thesis, 2017)In this thesis two methods for solving the diffusion-advection equation was implemented using MPI. The two methods was a velocity guided random walk of particles and solving the advection-diffusion equation on a grid. Both ... -
A Model for the Mixing of Black Carbon Aerosols and Mineral Dust Particles in the Atmosphere
(Master thesis, 2016)The process when freshly emitted black carbon particles are forming clusters and the mixing of these black carbon clusters and mineral dust particles has been simulated for a two-dimensional system. This has been done by ... -
A Monte Carlo Study of the Criticality of the 3D XY Model
(Master thesis, 2015)In this master thesis the criticality of the 3D XY model with cubic anisotropy has been examined by the means of Monte Carlo simulation. The 3D XY model is a special case of the $O(n)$ spin-vector model which describe ... -
A Soft-Limit Theorem for the On-Shell Scattering Amplitudes Describing Processes Involving Massive Nambu-Goldstone Bosons
(Master thesis, 2017)In this thesis we consider systems where both Lorentz invariance and a continuous symmetry group G is explicitly broken by coupling a chemical potential µ to one of the generators Q of G. In such systems it is well known ... -
A Spectroscopic Study of in situ Magnetic Doping of Novel Layered Materials for Spintronics
(Master thesis, 2016)MoS2 is a layered material in the family of the transition metal dicalchogenides (TMDCs), which hosts interesting spin physics. Even though the TMDCs are nonmagnetic in their bulk form, a local breaking of inversion symmetry ... -
A Theoretic Study of β'' Misfits and Strain in Al-Mg-Si Alloys - A Cluster-Based Approach Combining Density Functional Theory and Linear Elasticity
(Master thesis, 2018)Heat treatable aluminium alloys of the 6xxx series are important for many industrial applications in the modern world. They contain small amounts of the alloying elements magnesium and silicon, which cluster together to ... -
Active matter - Collective Motion due to Quincke Rotation
(Master thesis, 2015)his thesis investigates Quincke induced collective motion. It is mostly a qualitative study, but it attempts to connect Quincke induced collective motion to the field of active matter as a whole. The thesis has two objectives. ... -
All-optical Magnetisation Switching in Two-dimensional Metallic Ferro- and Antiferromagnetic Systems
