  1. 1. The Pseudo-Unitary Group U(p,q) in Quantum Magnonics

    L3-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Materialteori

    Författare :Maximilian Meyer-Mölleringhof; [2024]
    Nyckelord :quantum magnonics; materials theory; pseudo-unitary; quantum mechanics; magnons; antiferromagnets;

    Sammanfattning : The study of magnons is an essential part of combining quantum information science and spintronics, allowing for the investigation of quantum properties such as entanglement in solid-state devices. Magnons are commonly described using the theory of T. Holstein and H. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Bildning och/eller fri åsiktsbildning? : En uppsats om pseudovetenskap och vilseledande facklitteratur på folkbibliotek.

    Master-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för ABM

    Författare :Jockum Beckman; [2020]
    Nyckelord :Democracy; Public Libraries; Non-fiction; Pseudo Science; Free Opinion Formation; demokrati; folkbibliotek; facklitteratur; pseudovetenskap; fri åsiktsbildning;

    Sammanfattning : The aim of this master's thesis is to find out if there is a potential conflict between the mission of swedish publiclibraries to provide knowledge and the principle of objectivity, as well as what this might mean for the libraries'democratic mission. This is done by interviewing librarians working in various public libraries and analysingtheir thoughts on keeping pseudo-scientific or otherwise misleading non-fiction in the libraries' collections andhow this relates to the democratic mission.

  4. 3. Calling Bullshit: A Study on Pseudo-Profound Bullshit in a Business Context

    D-uppsats, Handelshögskolan i Stockholm/Institutionen för företagande och ledning; Handelshögskolan i Stockholm/Institutionen för marknadsföring och strategi

    Författare :Eva Klocke; Christopher Kuo; [2020]
    Nyckelord :pseudo-profound bullshit; judgment and decision making; fluency; familiarity; bullshit receptivity;

    Sammanfattning : The global concern for fake news, pseudo-science, and conspiracy theories is growing, fueling research on why individuals are receptive to this kind of information as well as on the factors that contribute to this phenomenon. Pseudo-profound bullshit, which is randomly generated and designed to impress without any regard for the truth, has become a relevant field of research in this regard. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Guidance strategies for the boosted landing of reusable launch vehicles

    Master-uppsats, KTH/Rymdteknik

    Författare :Agathe Carpentier; [2019]
    Nyckelord :guidance; Callisto; convex optimization; adaptative pseudo-spectral interpolation; GNC; thesis;

    Sammanfattning : This document presents the results of the master thesis conducted from April 2019 to October 2019 under the direction of CNES engineer Eric Bourgeois, as part of the KTH Master of Science in Aerospace Engineering curriculum. Within the framework of development studies for the Callisto demonstrator, this master thesis aims at studying and developing possible guidance strategies for the boosted landing. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Linear Algebra in Computer Graphics

    Kandidat-uppsats, Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för matematik (MA)

    Författare :Ana Strikic; [2019]
    Nyckelord :Linear algebra; computer graphics;

    Sammanfattning : In this thesis, we will investigate the rapidly developing eld of computergraphics by giving an insight into the calculations behind the most im-portant topics in perspectives, shading and distance. We will delve intofrequently used shading algorithms and perspective transforms in areas ofcomputer science, architecture and photography, such as pseudo sh-eyelenses and wide-angle lenses. LÄS MER
