1. Prospects for a Free Electron Laser at the FemtoMAX Beamline
Kandidat-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Synkrotronljusfysik; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionenSammanfattning : A Free Electron Laser (FEL), is a device that generates extremely coherent and brilliant radiation using electrons accelerated to relativistic velocities in a particle accelerator. The process utilises similar equipment to what is used at a synchrotron source like MAX IV, but in addition there is an interaction between the relativistic electron beam and the generated radiation to achieve an exponential growth in radiation intensity.

2. Quantum Optical Description of High-order Harmonic Generation
Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Atomfysik; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionenSammanfattning : High-order Harmonic Generation (HHG) is a highly non-linear process in which an atom interacts with a strong laser field. The laser field lowers the atomic potential barrier allowing bound electrons to escape into the continuum through tunnel ionization, propagate, and, with some probability, recombine with the parent ion.

3. Generation of attosecond X-ray pulses in free-electron lasers using electron energy modulation and undulator tapering
Uppsats för yrkesexamina på avancerad nivå, Uppsala universitet/FREIASammanfattning : Free-electron lasers (FELs) are among the world's most intense artificial artificial sources of coherent light and are tunable to various wavelengths, including the X-ray spectrum. X-ray FELs (XFELs) are extremely useful for diffraction experiments to study molecules, materials, and quantum systems. LÄS MER
4. Quantum state tomography of attosecond electron wavepackets
Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Atomfysik; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionenSammanfattning : In this master thesis, a broad theoretical description is done of a novel quantum state tomography protocol called KRAKEN. This protocol is meant for the determination of the density matrix of an electronic state created by absorption of XUV radiation in the vicinity of a Fano resonance. At first, a description of the KRAKEN protocol is provided. LÄS MER
5. Measuring the Pulse Duration and the Time-Dependent Polarisation State of Ultrashort Laser Pulses with the D-Scan Technique
Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen; Lunds universitet/AtomfysikSammanfattning : Ultrashort laser pulses with time-dependent polarisation states have many applications, such as the generation of isolated attosecond pulses and the study of the optical chirality of molecules. In this project the polarisation gate, built from two quarter-wave plates of different orders, is thoroughly characterised in experiment and simulation. LÄS MER
