Vidaña Haro, Isaac (Date of defense: 2001-06-08)
The purpose of this thesis is to study, within the framework of Brueckner-Hartree-Fock theory, properties of finite (hypernuclei) and infinite (hyperonic matter) nuclear many-body systems with hyperonic degrees of freedom, ...
Palau Ortin, David (Date of defense: 2016-02-02)
Cells, either as unicellular organisms or as part of a tissue of a multicellular organism, can acquire different functions thanks to their capability of changing their expression state. The enzyme synthesis, cell division ...
Abad García, Marta (Date of defense: 2012-02-16)
In this thesis we study the effects of the dipole-dipole interaction on the physics of ultracold quantum gases, both bosonic and fermionic, within the theoretical framework provided by the mean-field regime. This kind of ...
Picatoste Olloqui, Eduardo (Date of defense: 2016-12-22)
LHCb is one of the four large experiments of the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) based at CERN. The LHCb experiment is taking data at its nominal design luminosity. However, in order to distinguish among models of new physics, ...
Bae, Joonwoo (Date of defense: 2007-04-12)
Quantum cryptography is one of the most important quantum information applications. The present thesis covers several topics on quantum cryptography, such as the security analysis of quantum channels for key distribution ...
Riera Graells, Arnau (Date of defense: 2010-03-18)
THESIS SUMMARY<br/><br/>TEXT:<br/><br/>This thesis is made of two parts. In the first one, the issue of entanglement in many body systems is addressed. The concept of entanglement and some of the recent progress on the ...
Orús Lacort, Román (Date of defense: 2006-07-20)
From the seminal ideas of Feynman and until now, quantum information and computation has been a rapidly evolving field. While at the beginning, physicists looked at quantum mechanics as a theoretical framework to describe ...
Castan i Vidal, Maria Teresa (Date of defense: 1987-04-09)
Els sistemes objecte d'estudi en aquest treball són aliatges metàl·lics d'estructura reticular b.c.c. els quals, a baixes temperatures, experimenten una transició de fase estructural de tipus martensític (bàsicament descrita ...
Planet Latorre, Ramon (Date of defense: 2009-10-23)
La imbibició és un procés de transport de fluids immiscibles en un medi desordenat en el qual el fluid que mulla preferentment el medi desplaça el fluid resident. La interfície que separa aquests dos fluids esta sotmesa a ...
Ramírez de la Piscina Millán, Laureano (Date of defense: 1990-07-06)
La caracterización de sistemas por medio de sus tiempos característicos es sujeto de investigación tanto teórica como experimental. Posiblemente el tiempo característico más conocido y más ampliamente utilizado es el Tiempo ...
Pérez Reche, Francisco José (Date of defense: 2005-04-29)
En esta tesis se han estudiado algunos aspectos de sistemas que presentan transiciones de fase. Para ello se ha empleado tanto un enfoque experimental como teórico. En particular, se han investigado algunas transiciones ...
Ignés i Mullol, Jordi (Date of defense: 1997-06-26)
We have performed pattern formation experiments where a relatively well understood system (flow in a Hele-Shaw cell) is perturbed either by means of a lattice of grooves or by the use of viscoelastic fluids. We have extended ...
Tarrús Castellà, Jaume (Date of defense: 2012-06-07)
The first three chapters of this thesis have been devoted to the theoretical background. We presented the novel work of this thesis in chapters 4 and 5. In chapter 4 we have constructed a Chiral effective field theory for ...
Eiras Fernández, Dolors (Date of defense: 2002-07-01)
Collected papers where problems involving non-relativistic systems are solved by means of a proper Effective Field Theory. Those problems include the calculation of the lifetime of pionium, the lepton finite mass corrections ...
Puig Navarro, Albert (Date of defense: 2012-03-09)
Radiative decays of B mesons, a good example of Flavor Changing Neutral Currents, are interesting for the study of physics beyond the Standard Model, as new high-energy phenomena can enter in the loop. The LHCb experiment, ...
Grabalosa Gándara, Marc (Date of defense: 2012-05-15)
Flavour Tagging at the LHCb experiment is a fundamental tool for the measurement of B oscillations and the study of CP violation. This document explains the development of different tagging techniques and the different ...
Frigola Tubert, David (Date of defense: 2016-01-18)
Biological development is a complex process in which, from a single cell, a whole multicellular organism arises. The formation of this intrincate structures requires a very precise regulation in space and time. This ...
Campàs i Rigau, Otger (Date of defense: 2006-01-01)
[eng] The propulsion mechanisms that drive the movements of living cells constitute perhaps the most impressive engineering works of nature. Still, it is simply the interaction between molecules which is responsible for ...
Trejo Soto, Claudia Andrea (Date of defense: 2016-07-15)
Since Poiseuille times, several techniques has been developed to measure the viscosity of blood. During the 60's and 70's, with the appearance of the first rheomethers, the rheological properties of blood were accurately ...
Teller Amado, Sara (Date of defense: 2016-02-05)
Major dynamical traits of a neuronal network are shaped by its underlying circuitry. In several neurological disorders, the deterioration of brain's functionality and cognition has been ascribed to changes in the topological ...
