A novel synthesis of tin oxide thin films by the sol-gel process for optoelectronic applications
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2015)A novel and simple chemical method based on sol-gel processing was proposed to deposit metastable orthorhombic tin oxide (SnOx) thin films on glass substrates at room temperature. The resultant samples are labeled according ... -
A novel synthesis of tin oxide thin films by the sol-gel process for optoelectronic applications
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2015-02-13)A novel and simple chemical method based on sol-gel processing was proposed to deposit metastable orthorhombic tin oxide (SnOx) thin films on glass substrates at room temperature. The resultant samples are labeled according ... -
Novel theoretical tools in jet quenching
(Doctoral thesis, 2023-06-13)Jet quenching er studiet av hvordan egenskapene til en QCD-jet endrer seg når den passerer gjennom varmt nukleært materiale. Dette er relevant for kollisjoner av tunge ioner ved LHC og RHIC, da slike kollisjoner produserer ... -

Nuclear modification factor for charged pions and protons at forward rapidity in central Au plus Au collisions at 200 GeV
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2007-07)We present spectra of charged pions and protons in 0–10% central Au + Au collisions at View the MathML sourcesNN=200 GeV at mid-rapidity (y=0y=0) and forward pseudorapidity (η=2.2η=2.2) measured with the BRAHMS experiment ... -
Nuclear modification factor of light neutral-meson spectra up to high transverse momentum in p–Pb collisions at √sNN = 8.16 TeV
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Neutral pion (π0) and η meson production cross sections were measured up to unprecedentedly high transverse momenta (pT) in p–Pb collisions at √sNN = 8.16 TeV. The mesons were reconstructed via their two-photon decay channel ... -
The number of link and cluster states: the core of the 2D q state Potts model
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2005-11-30)Due to Fortuin and Kastelyin the q state Potts model has a representation as a sum over random graphs, generalizing the Potts model to arbitrary q is based on this representation. A key element of the random cluster ... -
A Numerical and Experimental Study of the Dispersion of a Dust Layer by a Rarefaction Wave
(Master thesis, 2017-06-22)In recent years, dynamics of dust lifting behind a passing shock wave have been studied extensively. Few studies have focused on the problem of dust lifting by a rarefaction wave. The aim of this study was to create a ... -
Numerical and experimental study of the vortex length in a gas cyclone
(Master thesis, 2012-09-01)Numerical and experimental study of the vortex length in a gas cyclone. Using a central composite design to find which factors influence the vortex length. -
Numerical computations of pressurized liquefied gas releases into the atmosphere
(Doctoral thesis, 2012-04-13)There is great concern about accidental releases and dispersion of toxic and flammable industrial chemicals into the atmosphere. Their toxic effects and/or flammable properties, combined with their widespread use and ... -
Numerical investigation of a transformable modular PET system: Consideration of point-spread functions, module arrangements, and operation protocols
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Positron emission tomography (PET) is a powerful tool for mapping the dynamic distribution of substances in visually opaque systems. A modular, scalable, transformable, and relocatable PET system is custom built to provide ... -

Numerical Modeling of Supercritical ‘Out-Salting’ in the “Atlantis II Deep” (Red Sea) Hydrothermal System
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2007)Supercritical water behaves close to that of a non-polar fluid and its ability to dissolve salt ions is very low. In rifting locations world-wide, where hot vents occur, it has been shown that seawater attains supercritical ... -
Numerical simulations of the flow and plugging behaviour of hydrate particles
