A Josephson junction is a device where a thin insulating barrier or a nanostructure is placed between two superconducting leads. Such a junction is essential to superconducting qubits that store quantum information due to its anharmonic spectrum.

Onderzoekers van LIACS werken aan het bedenken van de computers van morgen die de ruggengraat zullen vormen van de Cloud en Edge computing paradigma’s en ‘the Internet of Things’. In dit verband zijn we betrokken bij onderzoek en ontwikkeling van high performance computing systemen, embedded & real-time…

The thesis is part of a bigger project, the HEPGAME (High Energy Physics Game). The main objective for HEPGAME is the utilization of AI solutions, particularly by using MCTS for simplification of HEP calculations.

IoT technology poses serval opportunities to supply chains. This thesis employs grey correlation and forecasting models, system dynamics, agent-based modeling, and ex-ante LCA to investigate and quantify the opportunities and risks of IoT-enabled sustainable supply chain operations from both industrial…

In this thesis chemical and physical processes in the ice mantles on interstellar dust grains are studied.

Given the accelerating appearance of antimicrobial resistance, there is an urgent need for more fundamental research into novel antibiotic strategies. The work in this thesis helps to address this global problem by developing new antibiotic compounds, inspired by the antibacterial mechanisms of the…

Chinese materia medica (CMM), comprising a diverse array of natural substances from plants, animals, and minerals, has been integral to Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) throughout history. This study investigates the dynamic evolution of CMM, noting shifts in species for improved therapeutic effects…

This thesis is is made of three parts. The first part describes a generalization of the Chabauty's method, that can be used to determine the rational points of a curve such that s+g>r+1, where g is the genusof the curve, r is the rank of the Mordell-Weil group of the jacobian of the curve and s is…

The first direct detection of gravitational waves opened the possibility of mapping the Universe via this new and independent messenger.

In het najaar van 2021 deelden Cleveringa-hoogleraar Roméo Dallaire en werelddeskundigen hun gedachten over PTSS, kinderrechten, oorlogsmisdaden, humanitair recht en vredeshandhaving in een reeks gesprekken over leiderschap en morele dilemma's in tijden van conflict en crisis.

This thesis describes the antimicrobial discovery strategy developed in our group, the den Hertog Group at the Hubrecht Institute. It includes a cultivation-based screening approach for novel antimicrobial agents from the source of fungi, and a bacterial time-lapse imaging approach for antimicrobial…

Galaxies form and evolve through close interaction with their surroundings. As a result, the heavy elements ('metals') that are synthesized in stars, are found both inside and outside galaxies.

This thesis develops a method for direction dependent calibration of the ionosphere in radio interferometric data.

An algorithm is discussed to compute the exponential representation of principal units in a finite extension field F of the p-adic rationals.

The European Council and the European Commission have a similar role in agenda setting. Both place issues on the EU agenda. However, these institutions have distinct designs. They have different political attributes (the European Council has considerably more political authority) and information-processing…

In this thesis, topics relating to the optimization of high-throughput pipelines used for imaging are discussed. In particular, different levels of implementation, i.e., conceptual, software, and hardware, are discussed and the thesis outlines how advances on each level need to be made to make gains…

CMLCA is a software tool that supports the technical steps of the Life Cycle Assessment. The focus of the program is on advanced computational aspects of life cycle inventory calculations.

In this thesis, we developed new ways to use a technique called electroextraction (EE) to extract charged molecules from one liquid into another using an electric field.

This thesis provides explicit expressions for the density functions of absolutely continuous invariant measures for general families of interval maps, that include random maps and infinite measure transformations, not necessarily number systems.

Explaining treatment response variability between and within patients can support treatment and dosing optimization, to improve treatment of individual patients.

In this thesis, we have studied cell images from two types of cells, including pollen grains and the immune cells, neutrophils. These images are captured using a bright field microscope and a confocal microscope.

In this thesis, we have used numerical approaches to study the effects of translational symmetry breaking on strange metallic systems as realised by the holographic duality⁠.

In this thesis, we aim to shed light on the diverse and often opposing roles of integrin α3β1 in cancer.

Neuroimaging-onderzoek heeft de kennis over het menselijk brein al enorm vooruit geholpen. Het is inspirerend om na te denken over wat er mogelijk zou zijn als we neuroimaging niet alleen kunnen gebruiken om het functioneren van de hersenen in kaart te brengen, maar ook kunnen toepassen om mensen te…

Wiskundige Oliver Nagy kan zich nog levendig herinneren dat hij voor het eerst leerde over ‘random walks’. ‘De docent liet ons denken aan een groep dronken studenten die door de straten dwaalden. Bij elk kruispunt draaien ze één van hen in de rondte en gaan ze in de richting waar diegene tot stilstand…
