Research in magnetic materials leads to new devices and technologies. As the technology progresses, the devices become smaller and this miniaturization allows more storage capacity and lower costs in ...
López Domínguez, Víctor (Date of defense: 2014-06-11)
The interaction between magnetic nanoparticles and high frequencies, such as microwaves or terahertz waves, is one of the most active field of research, with interesting applications in the screening ...
Maccarrone Heredia, Alessandro (Date of defense: 2016-02-08)
The main objective of this thesis is to understand from a microscopic point of view some of the characteristic phenomena of rotating black holes. The inclusion of rotation gives rise to physics that ...
