SIRT7 suppresses energy expenditure and thermogenesis by regulating brown adipose tissue functions in mice

Johan Auwerx

Brown adipose tissue plays a central role in the regulation of the energy balance by expending energy to produce heat. NAD(+)-dependent deacylase sirtuins have widely been recognized as positive regulators of brown adipose tissue thermogenesis. However, he ...

Beam Selection and Tracking for Amplify-and-Forward Repeaters

Andreas Peter Burg, Ruben Merz, Adrian Schumacher

Mobile network operators constantly have to upgrade their cellular network to satisfy the public's hunger for increasing data capacity. However, regulatory limits regarding allowed electromagnetic field strength on existing cell sites often limit or preven ...

Dissipation-Driven Selection under Finite Diffusion: Hints from Equilibrium and Separation of Time Scales

Paolo De Los Rios, Daniel Maria Busiello, Shiling Liang

When exposed to a thermal gradient, reaction networks can convert thermal energy into the chemical selection of states that would be unfavourable at equilibrium. The kinetics of reaction paths, and thus how fast they dissipate available energy, might be do ...

Microchannel-based Calorimeter for Rapid and Accurate Loss Measurements on High-efficiency Power Converters

Elison de Nazareth Matioli, Remco Franciscus Peter van Erp, Palliyage Srilak Nirmana Perera

The difficulty in accurately measuring losses in high-frequency power converters hinders accurate breakdown of losses which is essential for device and circuit optimization. Electrical methods are often not adequate and calorimetric approaches found in the ...

Low-energy stereodynamics of ion-forming reactions

Junwen Zou

In this thesis, an experimental study of low-temperature stereodynamics in the reactive scattering of Ne(3P2) + X collisions (X = Ar, Kr, Xe, CO and N2) is presented. The steric effect of Ne(3P2) in these reactions is observed experimentally using a contro ...

Studies of cold chemistry in crossed and merged neutral beams

Silvia Tanteri

In this thesis we present the design of two setups to study low-energy collisions between neutral species: an electron velocity map imaging for chemi-ionisation reactions and a merged electrostatic guide for polar molecules scattering. In the past few yea ...

Method for patterning a thin film of a solid material

Jürgen Brugger, Giovanni Boero, Xia Liu, Ana Conde Rubio, Samuel Tobias Howell

A method for patterning a thin film of (a) solid material(s), comprising the steps of providing a thin film of said solid material(s) onto a substrate, said substrate being deformable by heat and indentation; and performing a thermo-mechanical indentation ...

Thermal management of components for high energy physics experiments and space applications

Timothée Robert Sophus Frei

High-energy physics (HEP) experiments and space missions share a common challenge: thermal management in harsh environments. The severe constraints in both fields make cooling of electronic components a major design concern. This thesis aims to develop hig ...
