De-noising of gravitational-wave data: the rROF method in the cWB data analysis pipeline 

Barneo González, Pablo José (Fecha de defensa: 2024-01-19)

[eng] Since the first experimental evidence for the existence of gravitational waves in 2015, the amount of data in this scientific area has increased enormously. There has also been a great deal of interest in the ...

Dynamical characterisation of the Magellanic Clouds with Gaia data and the KRATOS simulations 

Jiménez Arranz, Óscar (Fecha de defensa: 2024-04-08)

[eng] The more clearly visible galaxies to the naked eye in the night sky are the Magellanic Clouds (MC), the biggest galaxies in the Milky Way (MW) neighbourhood. Because they are so close, the Large and Small Magellanic ...

Disentangling the formation path of lenticular galaxies 

Tous Mayol, José Luis (Fecha de defensa: 2024-04-12)

[eng] Astronomers have known of the existence of lenticular galaxies (S0) almost as long as they have known that there are other galaxies besides the Milky Way. While it is accepted that spiral galaxies emerge from the ...

Towards a non-perturbative description of cosmological inflation 

Cruces Mateo, Diego (Fecha de defensa: 2023-12-13)

[eng] From the observation of the cosmic microwave background radiation (CMBR) we know that the universe is isotropic on scales larger than ∼ 75 Megaparsec to at least one part in 100000. The leading paradigm for explaining ...

Exotic phases of matter in low dimensional lattices: from quantum liquids to kinetic magnetism 

Morera Navarro, Ivan (Fecha de defensa: 2023-07-10)

[eng] In this Thesis we explore exotic phases of matter which arise when different mechanisms compete and favor different ground state configurations. We focus on two classes of low dimensional lattice systems. The first ...

Dark energy in quantum field theory: Implications on modern cosmology 

Moreno Pulido, Cristian (Fecha de defensa: 2023-07-06)

[eng] The Cosmological Constant, Λ, has been a controversial element in theoretical physics and cosmology since its introduction by Einstein in his field equations in 1917. Despite maintaining an irregular reputation over ...

Nonlocal Lagrangian Formalism 

Heredia Pimienta, Carlos (Fecha de defensa: 2023-03-31)

[eng] This thesis aims to study nonlocal Lagrangians with a finite and an infinite number of degrees of freedom. We obtain an extension of Noether's theorem and Noether's identities for such Lagrangians. We then set up a ...

From the Precision Era towards the Accuracy Era of Cosmology with DESI 

Brieden, Samuel (Fecha de defensa: 2022-09-14)

[eng] Despite the successes of the cosmological ΛCDM model and having entered the "Precision Era of Cosmology" there are still open questions. The principal model ingredients, ΛCDM, contribute to ~95% of the total energy ...

Effective-theory description of heavy-flavored hadrons and their properties in a hot medium 

Montaña Faiget, Glòria (Fecha de defensa: 2022-07-08)

For many decades after the conception of the quark model in 1964, and the development of quantum chromodynamics (QCD) a few years later as the theory governing the strong interaction between quarks and gluons, there was ...

Observational consequences of Black Holes in the Universe: From dark matter candidates to quasars 

Oncins Fernández, Marc (Fecha de defensa: 2022-06-03)

The existence of black holes that go beyond the mass given by their stellar origin has been known for some time. On the lower end, a subset of primordial black holes (PBHs) could form all of the dark matter with individually ...

Variational quantum architectures. Applications for noisy intermediate-scale quantum computers 

Bravo Prieto, Carlos (Fecha de defensa: 2022-06-20)

Quantum algorithms showing promising speedups with respect to their classical counterparts already exist. However, noise limits the quantum circuit depth, making the practical implementation of many such quantum algorithms ...

The Dynamical State of Star-forming Regions, from Molecular Clouds to Massive Clumps 

Lu, Zujia (Fecha de defensa: 2022-04-26)

Star formation is a fundamental and still largely unsolved problem of astrophysics and cosmology. Its complexity stems from the complex interaction of turbulence, magnetic fields and gravity, and from the onset of different ...

Primordial black holes and their implications for Inflation 

Triantafyllou, Nikolaos (Fecha de defensa: 2021-11-12)

The standard cosmological model, ΛCDM, with the addition of an early inflationary phase, provides an accurate description of a nearly flat and homogeneous Universe, at large scales, which expands at an accelerated ...

Modeling and observations of relativistic outflows in high-energy binary systems 

Molina Lumbreras, Edgar (Fecha de defensa: 2021-09-29)

Some binary systems consisting of a compact object, which can be either a neutron star or a black hole, and typically a non-degenerate companion star, have been shown to emit broadband radiation from radio up to gamma-ray ...

Approaching nuclear interactions with lattice QCD 

Illa Subiña, Marc (Fecha de defensa: 2021-09-09)

Holography applications in the strongly coupled sector: from QCD to the new physics 

Katanaeva, Alisa (Fecha de defensa: 2021-02-10)

AdS/CFT correspondence combines ideas of holography and duality in a way that allows one to make calculations in the otherwise hardly accessible (strongly coupled) regime of the target theory. In this thesis we are interested ...

Implications of Dynamical Dark Energy in the expansion of the Universe and the Structure Formation 

de Cruz Pérez, Javier (Fecha de defensa: 2021-04-16)

En aquesta tesi s’estudien diferents models cosmològics, tots ells caracteritzats per considerar, de manera efectiva, una lleu evolució temporal de l’Energia Fosca, en contrast amb l’actual model estàndard de la cosmologia. ...

Detection, characterisation and use of open clusters in a Galactic context in a Big Data environment 

Castro Ginard, Alfred (Fecha de defensa: 2021-04-30)

Open clusters are groups of stars, gravitationally bound together, that were born from the same molecular cloud and, thus, share similar positions, kinematics, ages and metallicities. Traditional methods to detect open ...
