(n,nʹ[gamma]) reactions in 6̳3̳,̳6̳5̳Cu and background in 0[nu] [beta] [beta] experiments
… background for certain underground double beta decay experiments. Neutroninduced gammas are a contribution to background for the next generation of double beta decay experiments, which are designed to reach the sensitivity of the atmospheric neutrino mass scale (45 meV). Measuring and …

Sensitivity Models for [Beta]+/EC Discovery in Large-Volume Scintillation Detectors
In this thesis, we consider the [Beta]+/EC decay of 124Xe and take the first steps towards characterizing a hypothetical experiment to detect it, making use of techniques traditionally employed in neutrinoless double beta decay experiments. We use a simulated large-volume scintillation detector …

Rare-event searches with bolometers
… neutrino masses. Over the last 30 years, these experiments have grown larger and more sophisticated, allowing us to probe new and exciting theories of the universe. At the same time, we have started to apply the technologies and techniques used in rare-event searches to areas of applied physics, …

Distinguishing Macrophage Activation States by Mass Spectrometry
… can be used in imaging mass spectrometry (IMS) experiments to investigate the spatial distribution of differently-activated macrophages within tissue sections. The immortalized macrophage line NR8383 (alveolar, rat) was used, and in vitro activated with the endotoxin lipopolysaccharide (LPS), or …

Neural Network Methods for Improving Signal Processing in High-Purity Germanium Detectors for Rare Event Searches
… to the sensitivity of neutrinoless double-beta decay experiments, and deep learning-based denoising offers a complementary approach to established noise-reduction techniques. The model is trained using the Noise2Noise method, which requires only pairs of independently noisy real data with no …

Theory of mRNA degradation
… on a global scale by parallel analysis of the decay patterns of many different mRNAs from different genes. In previous studies, the interpretation of these mRNA decay experiments relied on a simple theoretical description based on an exponential decay. However, this does not account for the …

Dynamic and Static CO2 Mass Transfer Processes in Bulk Heavy Oil and Heavy Oil Saturated Porous Media
… conditions. This study commenced with pressure decay experiments at static oil condition, where CO2 was brought in contact with two different types of oil samples. It then continued by using a reactor (PARR-4560) to investigate the influence of convection in the bulk heavy oil. Experiments were …

Taphonomy of pigmentary colours in fossil insects
… of pigmentary colours in fossil insects. Decay and tumbling experiments are combined to explore environmental, biological and compositional biases constraining the potential for fossilisation of cuticles in various extant taxa. In addition, the trace elemental signatures embedded in …
