Bachelor and Master projects Data analysis, detector R&D, virtual experiments (in Geant4) The underlying philosophy of our research group is to combine ideas, skills, and wishes from you with our group's current research efforts and needs. We often thrive at integrating or linking the undergraduate thesis work to ongoing PhD theses. This approach can often lead to co-authorship on a research publi
Lund activities within the FAIR-NUSTAR HISPEC/DESPEC experiment The HISPEC/DESPEC experiment is embedded in the NUSTAR science pillar of the European FAIR accelerator complex located near Darmstadt, Germany, built as extension to the GSI Helmholtzcentre for Heavy Ion Research. The HISPEC/DESPEC science case concerns γ-ray based nuclear spectroscopy of fast radioactive ion beams produced in relativ
Lund activities within superheavy element research Atoms containing atomic nuclei with more than 103 protons are classed as 'superheavy'. We explore superheavy nuclei both in terms of their nuclear structure as well as their mere existence. To date (2023), no atomic nuclei with a proton number in excess of Z=118 have been observed. In the wake of the discovery of superheavy elements, nuclear spect

Lund activities along the proton dripline in medium mass nuclei Atomic nuclei with the same number of protons and neutrons (N=Z) or those with proton and neutron numbers exchanged ("mirror nuclei") are laboratories to study certain symmetries of the nuclear force. Further, between doubly-magic 56Ni and 100Sn, the N=Z line is close to the proton dripline. This adds aspects of proton-unbound states

We can normally offer diploma projects within each of the three subtopics discussed under the nuclear astrophysics and reactions page. Diploma projects related to experiments at ISOLDEISOLDE diploma projects are currently focused on data analysis, simulations and machine development. Students within these projects often get the opportunity to spend time, in some cases also the complete project wi
