Bestemmelse av egenskaper til piezoelektriske skiver med lavt diameter/tykkelse forhold
(The University of Bergen, 2009-11-20)Oppgaven tar for seg mekaniske, elektriske og akustiske målinger i luft på piezoelektriske skiver av typen PZT-5A med et diameter/tykkelsesforhold på 7.5. Målingene blir sammenlignet med teoretiske modeller for skivenes ...Master thesis -
Birkeland current effects on high-latitude ground magnetic field perturbations
(Wiley, 2015-09-18)Magnetic perturbations on ground at high latitudes are directly associated only with the divergence-free component of the height-integrated horizontal ionospheric current, J⊥,df. Here we show how J⊥,df can be expressed as ...Journal article -

Calibration of the ALICE Photon Spectromter (PHOS) using the neutral pion to gamma gamma decay
(The University of Bergen, 2009-09-01)The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) is under construction beneath the border between Switzerland and France. If it is successful, it will accelerate and collide protons at 7 T eV per proton in center of mass. Furthermore, it ...Master thesis -
Catalysts for Enhanced CO2-CH4 Exchange in Natural Gas Hydrates. An experimental feasibility study of exchange enhancement by use of chemical additives
(The University of Bergen, 2013-06-01)Gas hydrate is a solid state of gas and water at high pressure and low temperature conditions. Vast energy potential is associated with gas hydrates and extensive on-going research aims at addressing the technical viability ...Master thesis -
Challenges related to storage and transfer of solar energy with a case study on long distance power transfer
(The University of Bergen, 2010-06-21)The challenges that will be discussed in this thesis are two-fold; the problems related to trans- mission of power over long distances, and the need for energy storage, especially at night. Both of the issues are accentuated ...Master thesis -
Characteristics of the flank magnetopause: Cluster observations
(WileyAmerican Geophysical Union, 2014-11)The magnetopause is a current sheet forming the boundary between the geomagnetic field on one side and the shocked solar wind on the other side. This paper discusses properties of the low-latitude dawn and dusk flanks ...Journal article -
Characterization of a neutral helium beam for helium microscopy
(The University of Bergen, 2015-06-29)Neutral helium beam microscopy is a new development in scientific instrumentation where neutral helium atoms are utilized to image a sample. The main advantage of using neutral helium is the significantly smaller energy ...Master thesis -
Characterization of Associating Polymer (AP) Solutions. Influences on flow behavior by the degree of hydrophobicity and salinity
(The University of Bergen, 2013-06-02)The most applied polymer today for chemical improved oil recovery (IOR) processes, such as polymer flood and/or polymer well treatments, is the synthetic partially hydrolyzed polyacrylamide (HPAM) and its derivatives. ...Master thesis -
Characterization of Hyper Spectral Irradiance and Radiance Sensors
(The University of Bergen, 2013-09-11)It is surprisingly problematic to to accurately measure light in the laboratory. Even more so when measuring in the field. There are lots of areas where measuring light spectrum and irradiance outside a laboratory is ...Master thesis -
Characterization studies of a GEM detector prototype for the ALICE TPC upgrade for LHC Run 3 and beyond
(The University of Bergen, 2016-11-21)The multiwire proportional chamber signal readout of the ALICE Time Projection Chamber (TPC) will be replaced by Gas Electron Multiplier (GEM) detectors to meet the new requirements due to higher collision rate and energies ...Master thesis -
Charged Higgs boson searches and SemiConductor Tracker commissioning for the ATLAS experiment
(The University of Bergen, 2007-06-21)The ATLAS (A Toroidal Lhc ApparatuS) experiment is one of four major experiments presently being installed at the upcoming Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at the European Centre for Nuclear Research (CERN) outside Geneva. In ...Doctoral thesis -
Charged-Higgs production in the Two-Higgs-doublet model — the τ ν channel
(Springer, 2015-06-15)We update the allowed parameter space of the CP-violating 2HDM with Type II Yukawa couplings, that survives the current experimental and theoretical constraints on the model. For a representative set of allowed parameter ...Journal article -
