Most of the experiments related to quantum information applications, involving rare-earth doped inorganic crystals, are performed on yttrium orthosilicate single crystals. The work presented here is motivated by the search of new compounds which can be used in the field of quantum computing and/or quantum storage. Relaxation times and hyperfine structure of the H-3(4)(0)-> D-1(2)(0) transition in
Hemp milk has the potential to be a climate-friendly substitute for cow milk. In contrast to other milk substitutes, the climate impact of hemp milk has not yet been studied. This study aims to examine the climate impact and water consumption of hemp milk throughout the whole process from the agricultural stage to the finished product via a life cycle assessment. The results show that the climate
This thesis investigates how public archives in Sweden engage with ecological sustainability, with the purpose to provide an opportunity for reflection and discussion on the topic. My point in question is the disambiguation of the Swedish word “hållbarhet”. This is used both in reference to sustainability, meaning actions for improving environmental conditions, and to durability, which in the arch

The energy system is undergoing significant changes and is expected to continue to evolve. Energy demand is anticipated to increase, as is renewable energy capacity, and technical solutions are advancing. For electrical power, traditionally centralized production is increasingly complemented by distributed production, transforming fundamental system functionality. These developing factors will aff
Electric power systems are undergoing huge changes due to the shift from conventional power production to more renewable-based generation like solar and wind. This is primarily driven by the need to mitigate climate change by reducing CO2 emissions. The shift to more generation from solar and wind will affect the dynamical behaviour of power systems, and consequently how they should be controlled.
This thesis investigated the potential of using reactive power compensation to solve overvoltage issues caused by high amounts of distributed generation, such as rooftop photovoltaic (PV) systems, in the low voltage grid. High voltages are caused by increasing distributed generation as the Swedish power grid shifts from centralised to decentralised power production. The aim was to manage overvol

Present power system will face great challenges in several areas depending on the market economy, extensive global integration and constant need for more electric power, which will force the system to operate much closer to its stability limits. Meeting these challenges may involve improving and complementing or even total restructuring of the power systems.New technologies are emerging such as re
Technology change will have a central role in achieving a sustainable energy system. This calls for methods of analysing the dynamics of energy systems in view of technology change and policy instruments for effecting and accelerating technology change. In this thesis, such methods have been developed, applied, and assessed. Two types of methods have been considered, methods of analysing and proje
Inhalation as a method for drug delivery has been employed for more than 2000 years and serves many advantages for diseases in the respiratory tract, like cystic fibrosis and asthma. When administrating the drug directly to the respiratory tract it results in rapid effects and elimination of systemic side effects due to more targeted delivery. Dry powder inhalers (DPI) typically consist of the act
Hög energieffektivitet och god fordonsdynamik är två av de viktigaste fokusområdena för drivsystem i personbilar. En central komponent i BorgWarner:s produkter för momentöverföring är en lamellkoppling som regleras med hjälp av trycksatt olja från en hydraulisk axialkolvpump. Ett alternativ för att reducera energiförbrukningen och samtidigt förbättra pumpens prestanda är att variera pumpens deplacEnergy efficiency and good vehicle dynamics are two of the main focus areas for passenger car drive systems. A central component in BorgWarner’s torque transfer products is a multi-plate clutch which is actuated by pressurized oil from a hydraulic axial-piston pump. One way to reduce the energy consumption and improve the performance of the pump is to let the displacement of the pump vary dependin
In this work, we numerically study a self-guiding process in which ionization plays a dominant role and analyze its effect on high-order harmonic generation (HHG) in gases. Although this type of self-guiding-termed "plasmacore- induced self-guiding" in previous works-limits the achievable cutoff by regulating the intensity of the laser beam, it provides favorable conditions for phase matching, whi
The Horizon 2020 project EuPRAXIA (European Plasma Research Accelerator with eXcellence In Applications) is producing a conceptual design report for a highly compact and cost-effective European facility with multi-GeV electron beams accelerated using plasmas. EuPRAXIA will be set up as a distributed Open Innovation platform with two construction sites, one with a focus on beam-driven plasma accele
We describe a series of microcalorimeter X-ray spectrometers designed for a broad suite of measurement applications. The chief advantage of this type of spectrometer is that it can be orders of magnitude more efficient at collecting X-rays than more traditional high-resolution spectrometers that rely on wavelength-dispersive techniques. This advantage is most useful in applications that are tradit
It has been shown by Fano [1] that photoionization of a cesium atom by a laser pulse tuned to the vicinity of a Cooper minimum generates spin-polarized electrons. Here we show that while photoionization of rare gases does not provide large spin polarization in the vicinity of the Cooper minimum, the Fano resonances yield much higher overall spin polarization (≥40%). The spin polarization increases
