The stereodynamics of ion forming reactions

Andreas Osterwalder, Sean Dennis Steven Gordon

Energy transfer reactions occur in all areas of chemistry. One fundamental form of this is demonstrated by reactions in which an electronically excited atom transfers energy to a neutral, resulting in spontaneous ionisation, potentially combined with compl ...

Nonreciprocal surface acoustic wave propagation via magneto-rotation coupling

Dirk Grundler, Mingran Xu

A fundamental form of magnon-phonon interaction is an intrinsic property of magnetic materials, the “magnetoelastic coupling.” This form of interaction has been the basis for describing magnetostrictive materials and their applications, where strain induce ...

Resilience of Transitions - Introducing seven Theses

Claudia Rebeca Binder Signer, Romano Tobias Wyss, Thorsten Schilling

Within the sustainability discourse, resilience has been taken up more and more as a central boundary object. Resilience in principle has both static and dynamic elements to it, allowing a system to stay in an equilibrium without endangering its long-term ...

Fermi-level pinning and intrinsic surface states of Al1-xInxNd(10(1)over-bar0) surfaces

Nicolas Grandjean, Jean-François Carlin, Raphaël Butté

The electronic structure of Al1-xInxNd(10 (1) over bar0) surfaces is investigated by cross-sectional scanning tunneling spectroscopy and density functional theory calculations. The surface exhibits empty Al and/or In-derived dangling bond states, which are ...

Characterization of Ligand Shell for Mixed-Ligand Coated Gold Nanoparticles

Francesco Stellacci, Quy Ong Khac, Zhi Luo

Gold nanoparticles owe a large number of their properties to their ligand shell. Indeed, many researchers routinely use mixtures of ligand molecules for their nanoparticles to impart complex property sets. It has been shown that the morphology of ligand sh ...

EU-FP7-IMARS: Analysis of Mars multi-resolution images using auto-coregistration, data mining and crowd source techniques: Processed results - A first look

Anton Ivanov

Understanding planetary atmosphere-surface exchange and extra-terrestrial-surface formation processes within our Solar System is one of the fundamental goals of planetary science research. There has been a revolution in planetary surface observations over ...

Reduced Models for Optimal Control, Shape Optimization and Inverse Problems in Haemodynamics

Andrea Manzoni

The objective of this thesis is to develop reduced models for the numerical solution of optimal control, shape optimization and inverse problems. In all these cases suitable functionals of state variables have to be minimized. State variables are solutions ...

Fano Resonances in Plasmonic Nanostructures

Benjamin Gallinet

Surface plasmons are able to generate extremely strong and confined optical fields at a deep-subwavelength scale, far beyond the diffraction limit, and now play a central role in nanosciences. A proper combination of plasmonic nanostructures can support Fa ...

Low-rank tensor Krylov subspace methods for parametrized linear systems

Daniel Kressner, Christine Tobler

We consider linear systems A(alpha)x(alpha) - b(alpha) depending on possibly many parameters alpha = (alpha(1), ... , alpha(p)). Solving these systems simultaneously for a standard discretization of the parameter range would require a computational effort ...
