Search for flavour-changing neutral-current interactions of a top quark and a gluon in pp collisions at √s=13 TeV with the ATLAS detector
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)A search is presented for the production of a single top quark via left-handed flavour-changing neutral-current (FCNC) interactions of a top quark, a gluon and an up or charm quark. Two production processes are considered: ... -
Types of pulsating aurora: Comparison of model and EISCAT electron density observations
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Energetic particle precipitation associated with pulsating aurora (PsA) can reach down to lower mesospheric altitudes and deplete ozone. It is well documented that pulsating aurora is a common phenomenon during substorm ... -
Readout Electronics for the Upgraded ITS Detector in the ALICE Experiment
(Doctoral thesis, 2022-06-03)ALICE is undergoing upgrades during the Long Shutdown (LS) 2 of the LHC to improve its performance and capabilities, and to prepare the experiment for the increases in luminosity provided by the LHC in Run 3 and Run 4. One ... -
Cutoff Latitudes of Solar Proton Events Measured by GPS Satellites
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Solar energetic particles (SEPs), one of the main causes of particle radiation in interplanetary space, can disrupt radio communication, induce spacecraft failures and change the heating and cooling rates in the atmosphere ... -
Quantitative Magnetic Resonance Imaging of Tissue Microvasculature and Microstructure in Selected Clinical Applications
(Doctoral thesis, 2022-06-03)This thesis is based on four papers and aims to establish perfusion and diffusion measurements with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in selected clinical applications. While structural imaging provides invaluable geometric ... -
Problem solving in basic physics: Effective self-explanations based on four elements with support from retrieval practice
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Self-explanation, a learning strategy where students explain to themselves the steps taken in a worked example, is an effective learning strategy in early cognitive skill acquisition. However, many physics students produce ... -
Modelling of gas hydrates in sedimentary systems : Methane hydrates impact on flow through porous media
(Doctoral thesis, 2022-04-06)In nature, gas hydrates exist in areas of permafrost and in shallow subsurface sediments at ocean depths of more than 300-500 metres. In terms of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) of the United Nations, better ... -
