K-kertaisesti kiellettyjen uniikkien β-siirtymien faasiavaruusintegraalit
2018
Tässä tutkimuksessa perehdytään K-kertaisesti kiellettyjen uniikkien beetasiirtymien faasiavaruusintegraaleihin. K-kertaisesti kielletyt uniikit beetasiirtymät ovat beetahajoamisten alaryhmä, ja faasiavaruusintegraalit kuvaavat hajoamisreaktion jälkeisiä lopputiloja ja antavat muun muassa tärkeää tietoa siirtymän hajoamisvakiosta. Tutkimuksessa laskettiin numeerisesti faasiavaruusintegraalit useille tunnetuille beetasiirtymille, jotka voivat olla kaksi- tai useampikertaisesti kiellettyjä. Saatua laskentadataa analysoitiin eri näkökulmista. Tärkein näkökulma on kielletyn uniikin beetasiirtymän ja samaa beetahajoamista kuvaavan perus- eli sallitun siirtymän välinen suhde, koska tämä näkökulma…
Fission yield studies with SPIG-equipped IGISOL : a novel method for nuclear data measurements
2010
This thesis work consists of two sections. In the first section, the development of a so-called Laser Ion Source Trap (LIST) device is described. The LIST device is based on a double SPIG (SextuPole Ion Guide) system, providing the possibility to improve the elemental selectivity of the IGISOL method via highly discriminative laser ionization occurring outside the ion guide. The improved selectivity enables the production of isotopically pure beams. The double SPIG can be used without laser ionization and replaces the conventional skimmer electrode. In this work, the SPIG is compared to the skimmer and is shown to remarkably improve both the efficiency and beam quality of the IGISOL facilit…
Ydinfuusion fysikaaliset perusteet energiantuotannossa ja fuusiolaitteiden kehitys
2016
Kahden atomin, joiden massaluku on alle 60, yhdistymistä yhdeksi atomiksi kutsutaan fuusioksi. Tämän ydinreaktion seurauksena vapautuu valtavasti energiaa ja sen valjastamista ihmiselle hyödyllisen muotoon on tutkittu yli 50 vuoden ajan. Keskeisin tavoite tälle pro gradu -tutkielmalle oli selvittää lämpöydinfuusion fysikaaliset perusteet, minkälaisia merkittäviä läpimurtoja fuusiotutkimuksessa on saavutettu ja toisaalta minkälaisia ratkaisemattomia ongelmia energiantuottoon kykenevän fuusiovoimalan edessä on. Edistysaskelien ja ratkaisemattomien ongelmien osalta keskitytään menestyksekkäimpään koelaitteeseen, tokamakiin. Tähän mennessä erilaisia koejärjestelmiä on ehdotettu useita, mutta to…
Nuclear fission studies with the IGISOL method and JYFLTRAP
2015
there is no unique model or theory which describes all aspects of this phenomenon. Experimental measurements of nuclear fission product distributions still remains quite a challenging task for modern technologies. In the present work nuclear fission is studied from the radioactive ion beam production point of view. Some models suggest that the neutron-induced fission can be more favorable for production of neutron-rich nuclides than the proton-induced fission. The general idea of this thesis is to compare all aspects of both approaches in connection with the IGISOL method. A new technique to determine independent fission product yields was suggested for the comparison. This technique has be…

Electron spectroscopy with the SAGE spectrometer
2016
A device called the SAGE (Silicon And GErmanium) spectrometer, designed for in-beam electron spectroscopy, is introduced in this work. A detailed description to the technical aspects of the device is given along with several examples of analytical procedures related to work done with the device. The radial ltering method and veto/add-back algorithms are tools for improving the quality of the electron-gamma data whilst the time-gate selection procedure helps in determining absolute internal conversion coe cients without reference points. Two very di erent types of experiments with results obtained from the electron data are introduced and analysed. Coulomb excitation is used to probe 154Sm a…
Book and Radio Play Silences : Medial Pauses and Reticence in ‘Murke's Collected Silences’ by Heinrich Böll
2019
This article analyses silence at the interface between print and audio media by reading and listening to Heinrich Böll's short story ‘Murke's Collected Silences’ (‘Doktor Murkes gesammeltes Schweigen’) in its book (1958) and three German-language radio play versions (1965; 1986; 1989). Reference is also made to Benjamin Gwilliam's sound art piece (2007) based on the 1986 adaptation. The Böll story thematises silence and media in various ways, and has definite countertextual aspects, in the sense of technology, textuality, and materiality of language. In the printed story, silence is either verbally named or typographically indicated, whereas the radio plays present or perform it. The compar…
γ decay of excited states in 198Rn identified using correlated radioactive decay
1999
The low-lying level structure of the neutron-deficient isotope 198Rn has been studied for the first time, using the 166Er(36Ar,4n) reaction at a beam energy of 175 MeV. Evaporation residues were selected using an in-flight gas-filled separator, RITU, and implanted at the focal plane into a 16-element position-sensitive, passivated ion-implanted planar silicon detector. Prompt γ rays in 198Rn were observed at the target position using the JUROSPHERE array of 24 Compton-suppressed germanium detectors, and were identified by the subsequent radioactive decay of associated recoiling ions in the silicon detector. Isotopic assignments of the nuclei produced were made on the basis of the energy and…
Effect of different co-solvents on biodiesel production from various low-cost feedstocks using Sr–Al double oxides
2020
The main objective of the present paper comprises the investigation of biodiesel production from low-cost feedstock such as lard oil and waste cooking oil (WCO) using Sr-Al double oxides. Nanocatalyst was characterised FTIR, XRD, SEM, TEM, BET and XPS. The Sr:Al with 3:1 molar ratio showed the best catalytic activity in the conversion of both oils to fatty acid methyl ester. The effect of acetone and tetrahydrofuran (THF) as a co-solvent for transesterification were compared and the best result was obtained with 5 % THF. The mutual effect of the nanocatalyst and co-solvent on biodiesel production was investigated. The characterisation of biodiesel synthesised from lard oil and WCO was perfo…
