The study of a system from a network perspective focuses on the impact that connectivity between the elements has on the function of the system. The observation and measurement of parameters of real-world ...
Sagarra Pascual, Oleguer Josep (Date of defense: 2016-07-22)
Complex networks grow subject to structural constraints which affect their measurable properties. Assessing the effect that such constraints impose on their observables is thus a crucial aspect to be ...
Carbonell Cortés, Carla (Date of defense: 2012-06-22)
The work presented in this thesis consists of two distinct parts. The first years of my work focused on the development and improvement of a new equipment built to study magnetic and electrical ...

L'experiment d'Stern-Gerlach (SG) és considerat un dels més importants de la història de la teoria quàntica, i sovint s'utilitza en llibres de text de Mecànica Quàntica per il·lustrar ...
