Master Thesis in Physics
Uncertainty is certain - our job is to quantify it.
Sigfrid Stjärnholm
During spring of 2023, half a year of research was presented in a thesis with the title 'Propagation of Nuclear Data Uncertainties for Reactor Physics Parameters in Fluorine-19-based Molten Salt Reactors'. The supervisor of the project was Zsolt Elter at the Division for Applied Nuclear Physics at Uppsala University. Below you will find some links to material connected to the thesis. A popular science presentation in Swedish can be found below, which is a summary of the work and is suited for everyone - no matter the age or background knowledge.
