  1. 16. Linking the selectivity of varying surface phases of a real palladium catalyst toward specific methane oxidation pathways with Ambient Pressure X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Synkrotronljusfysik; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen

    Författare :Ulrike Küst; [2023]
    Nyckelord :APXPS; catalysis; palladium; methane; Physics and Astronomy;

    Sammanfattning : The study of heterogeneous catalysis, especially within methane oxidation, is of high importance in order to more efficiently remove unburned methane from bio-fuel exhausts. This is relevant as bio-fuel engines will replace those driven by fossil fuels in the coming decades. LÄS MER

  2. 17. Identifying Fundamental Characteristics of Shock Nonstationarity using MMS Measurements : Identifying and Distinguishing Non-stationary Behaviour Through the Magnetic Field Gradient in Quasi-perpendicular Shocks

    Master-uppsats, KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Författare :Hannah Wik; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Space; Space Plasma Physics; Collisionless Shocks; MMS; Non-stationarity; Shock Reformation; Rippling; Bow Shock; Solar Wind; Rymd; Rymdfysik; Kollisionsfria chocker; MMS; Icke-stationär; Reformation; Bogchock; Solvind;

    Sammanfattning : Collisionless shocks are widespread phenomena in the universe, and understanding the mechanisms behind their energy dissipation, with a rare number of collisions between particles, remains a significant unresolved question. The Earth’s bow shock provides an excellent opportunity to study this phenomena in situ. LÄS MER

  3. 18. Can Dwarf Galaxies Tell Us How the Milky Way Formed?

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Astrofysik; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen

    Författare :Þóra Karlsdóttir; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Dwarf Galaxy; Milky Way; Physics and Astronomy;

    Sammanfattning : Dwarf galaxies are a key component in understanding the evolution of galaxies and provide tests on the standard cosmological $\Lambda$ Cold Dark Matter model. According to the formation hierarchy, dwarf galaxies are the pieces that create all galaxies. Our current understanding of dwarf galaxies faces discrepancies between theory and observations. LÄS MER

  4. 19. Simulations of the Tenuous Upper Atmospheres of Exoplanets

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Astrofysik; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen

    Författare :Lucian Spitzner; [2023]
    Nyckelord :astronomy; astrophyics; exoplanets; transmission spectroscopy; magnetic fields; atmospheres; ions; Physics and Astronomy;

    Sammanfattning : Over the last decade, the interest in research on extraterrestrial planets has expanded dramatically. With the number of confirmed exoplanets having increased tenfold over the last ten years, we now know that many different types of exoplanets exist. LÄS MER

  5. 20. Characterization of Bi-incorporated InSb(111)A/B Surfaces : An STM and XPS Study

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Synkrotronljusfysik; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen

    Författare :Shengpeng Huang; [2023]
    Nyckelord :indium antimonide; surface reconstructions; bismuth deposition; scanning tunneling microscopy; X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy.; Physics and Astronomy;

    Sammanfattning : In recent years, III-V semiconductor materials have received increasing attention due to their admirable electronic properties like direct tunable bandgaps and high charge carrier mobility. Indium Antimonide (InSb) possesses the largest electron mobility among III-V materials and is promising for infrared detectors, high-speed field effect transistors, and spintronics. LÄS MER
