Extraction of form factors from a four-dimensional angular analysis of ¯B→D∗ℓ−¯νℓ
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019-08-30)An angular analysis of the decay ¯B→D∗ℓ−¯νℓ, ℓ∈{e,μ}, is reported using the full e+e−collision data set collected by the BABAR experiment at the Υ(4S) resonance. One B meson from the Υ(4S)→B¯B decay is fully reconstructed ... -
Fabrication of large free-standing nanostructured zone plates for focusing a Bose-Einstein condensate
(Master thesis, 2017-09-20)Matter wave optics is a fascinating area of physics touching many scientific disciplines ranging from microscopy to high precision gravity measurements. One of the major recent breakthroughs was the realization in 1995 of ... -
FAME 3: Predicting the sites of metabolism in synthetic compounds and natural products for phase 1 and phase 2 metabolic enzymes
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)In this work we present the third generation of FAst MEtabolizer (FAME 3), a collection of extra trees classifiers for the prediction of sites of metabolism (SoMs) in small molecules such as drugs, druglike compounds, ... -
Fargestoffer i tropiske planter
(Master thesis, 2003)Antocyaner er av de viktigste og mest utbredte pigmentene i planteriket. De gir opphav til et spekter av røde og blålige farger. Dette gjør dem blant annet til en nødvendig brikke i spredningen av frø og pollen, da planter ... -
Fast photodegradation of antibiotics and dyes by anionic surfactant-aided CdS/ZnO nanodispersion
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)The photocatalytic technology has broad applications in energy and environmental science. In this study, we synthesized a type II heterojunction CdS/ZnO (CSZ) nanodispersion by means of one-pot precipitation. Different ... -
Fast-fase NMR-spektroskopi og MRI-studier av fettsyreprofiler direkte på fiskekjøtt. En sammenligning av oppdrettslaks og villaks
(Master thesis, 2018-06-28)The purpose of this project has been to determine the fat content, fat distribution and fatty acid composition in wild and farmed salmon using solid-state Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectroscopy and Magnetic Resonance ... -
Fishmeal physicochemical properties. Impact on the fish feed extrusion process, phase transitions and physical pellet quality
(Doctoral thesis, 2015-06-19)Norway is the world largest producer of Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar). In 2013 the Norwegian aquaculture industry produced 1.2 million metric tons salmon with the use of 1.5 million metric tons of commercial feeds. The ... -
Fixed Bed Reactor Validation of a Mayenite Based Combined Calcium–Copper Material for Hydrogen Production through Ca–Cu Looping
