1. 1. Spatiotemporal Consciousness in Special Relativity

   Master-uppsats, Umeå universitet/Institutionen för idé- och samhällsstudier

   Författare :Gustaf Malmberg; [2023]
   Nyckelord :Consciousness; Phenomenology; Special Relativity; Relativistic Spacetime; Theoretical Physics;

   Sammanfattning : The experience of time passing is a fundamental part of the human experience, but what is the relationship between conscious experiences in time and the relativistic nature of space and time? It is natural to think that our phenomenal experiences are realised by neuralevents in our brains. And it seems plausible that the order of these neural events makes a difference to our phenomenology. LÄS MER

3. 2. Black Holes and Scalar Fields : A study of a massive scalar field around a black hole

   Kandidat-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Teoretisk fysik

   Författare :Abdulmasih Ghazal; [2022]
   Nyckelord :Black holes; scalar field; General relativity; special relativity; spacetime; cosmology; Schwarzschild; Schrödinger equation; Svart hål; relativitetsteori; skalär fält; rumtid; Shrödinger; Schwarzschild.;

   Sammanfattning : Black holes are one of the most interesting objects in the universe, and studying these objects should give exciting results. This research will investigate the General Theory of Relativity, explaining the essence of the theory needed for deriving solutions for a Schwarzschild black hole. LÄS MER

4. 3. Gravitation in Lorentz and Euclidean Geometry

   Kandidat-uppsats, KTH/Fysik

   Författare :Niki Wilhelmson; Johan Stoyanov; [2022]
   Nyckelord :gravitation; gravity; euclidean geometry; isometry; laplace; helmholtz; lorentz geometry; differential geometry; general relativity; special relativity; Einstein s field equations; Lovelock; Newton;

   Sammanfattning : The aim of this work is to derive mathematical descriptions of gravitation. Postulating gravitation as a force field, Newton's law of gravitation is heuristically derived by considering linear differential operators invariant under euclidean isometries and by finding the fundamental solution to Helmholtz equation in three dimensions.

5. 4. Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) and Bayesian Inference for Gravitational Waves

   Kandidat-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Astronomi - Genomgår omorganisation

   Författare :Christine Andersson; [2021]
   Nyckelord :Gravitational Waves; LISA; LISA mission; Bayesian Inference; Markov Chain Monte Carlo; MCMC; Bayes’ Theorem; stochastic sampling; Metropolis Hastings; histograms; Physics and Astronomy;

   Sammanfattning : The Laser Interferometer Space Antenna (LISA) is a space borne gravitational wave detec- tor set to launch in 2034, with the objective of detecting and studying the Gravitational Waves (GWs) of our universe. So far, ground-based detectors such as the Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory (LIGO) have been successful in detecting GWs, but the limitations of ground based detectors is what makes LISA so special.

7. 5. Ett genis trovärdighet : En retorisk analys av Albert Einsteins vetenskapliga ethos

   Master-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Litteraturvetenskapliga institutionen

   Författare :Rebecka Göransdotter; [2018]
   Nyckelord :rhetoric of science; rhetoric of inquiry; ethos; prior and secondary ethos; implied auditor; Albert Einstein; special and general theory of relativity; science; theoretical physics; scientific ideal and norms; epistemic virtues; nationalism; anti-Semitism; genre; popular science; popularization; retorik; vetenskapsretorik; ethos; primär och-sekundärethos; föreställd publik; Albert Einstein; allmäna och speciella relativitetsteorin; vetenskap; teoretisk fysik; vetenskapliga ideal; epistemologiska dygder; nationalism; internationalism; antisemitism; genre; populärvetenskap; popularisering;

   Sammanfattning : Albert Einstein published the English translation of Relativity: The Special and General Theory in the midst of two big events in 1920: the confirmation of the two theories of relativity and spacetime in 1919 and the Nobel prize in physics in 1921. The new global celebrity wanted to make the theories intelligible and readable for an international English-speaking audience, an audience that also included antagonistic scientists and even anti-Semites.
