L0/L1 trigger generation by the ALICE PHOS detector
(Doctoral thesis, 2011-12-14)Quark-Gluon Plasma (QGP) is a phase that exists above a critical temperature and corresponding energy density according to the theory of Quantum Chromo-Dynamics (QCD). The studies of the QGP help us to understand the early ... -
A Lagrangian study of liquid flow in a reverse-flow hydrocyclone using positron emission particle tracking
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2015-01-10)In this study the liquid flow in a reverse-flow hydrocyclone is studied experimentally using the Lagrangian approach. Resin beads with densities that are close to the density of the liquid in which they move, i.e. ... -
\lambda Polarization in Heavy Ion Collisions
(Master thesis, 2015-06-02)Results on transverse lambda polarization in peripheral heavy ion collisions in an exact, analytic, self-similar rotating hydrodynamics model using the gradient and curl of the inverse temperature field. We estimate the ... -
Large area microwave plasma CVD of diamond using composite right/left-handed materials
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Diamond growth at low temperatures (≤400 °C) and over large areas is attractive for materials, which are sensitive to high temperatures and require good electronic, chemical or surface tribological properties. Resonant-cavity ... -
The Large Hadron–Electron Collider at the HL-LHC
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)The Large Hadron–Electron Collider (LHeC) is designed to move the field of deep inelastic scattering (DIS) to the energy and intensity frontier of particle physics. Exploiting energy-recovery technology, it collides a ... -

Laser light propagation in a turbid medium: solution including multiple scattering effects
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)We have shown that solutions to the radiative transfer equation for a homogeneous slab yield a zenith radiance reflectance that for collimated beam incidence in the nadir direction can be expressed in terms of the lidar ... -
Laser Wake Field Collider
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Recently NAno-Plasmonic, Laser Inertial Fusion Experiments (NAPLIFE) were proposed, as an improved way to achieve laser driven fusion. The improvement is the combination of two basic research discoveries: (i) the possibility ... -
Late Time Entropy Production in Leptogenesis Scenarios
(Master thesis, 2016-12-20)In this thesis we will consider Standard Model (SM) Leptogenesis scenarios and determine the maximally allowed entropy production with respect to the mass of the lightest right handed neutrino. We extend the SM Leptogenesis ... -
Latest results on the production of hadronic resonances in ALICE at the LHC
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Measurement of short-lived hadronic resonances are used to study different aspects of particle production and collision dynamics in pp, p–A and relativistic heavy-ion collisions. The yields of resonances are sensitive to ... -
Latest results on the radiation tolerance of diamond detectors
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)We have measured the radiation tolerance of chemical vapor deposition (CVD) diamond against protons and neutrons. The relative radiation damage constant of 24 GeV protons, 800 MeV protons, 70 MeV protons, and fast reactor ... -
Learning science in interactive exhibitions. Frameworks for design and evaluation of material for exploratory learning experiences
(Doctoral thesis, 2017-03-10)This study addresses utilization of interactive science exhibitions as resources that support students’ progress towards conceptual understanding of science. Informed by previous empirical studies related to our area ... -
Library of Simulated Gamma-Ray Glows and Application to Previous Airborne Observations
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Gamma-Ray Glows (GRGs) are high energy radiation originating from thunderclouds, in the MeV energy regime, with typical duration of seconds to minutes, and sources extended over several to tens of square kilometers. GRGs ... -
