Abstract:
This thesis investigates two very different aspects of quantum gravity. In the first - and main - section, we examine the question of quantum gravitational contributions to the running of a coupling parameter alongside the various problems and issues that this raises. We treat quantum gravity as an e ective eld theory and use perturbative methods to address issues. Speci cally, we look at a '4-type scalar coupling. In a gauge-invariant way, we consider a non-minimally coupled, massive scalar eld, with non-constant background, in the presence of a cosmological constant and contrary to most of t

Thesis (Ph. D.)--Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Dept. of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science, 2009.<br>Cataloged from PDF version of thesis.<br>Includes bibliographical references (p. 199-205).<br>Portable electronics have fueled the rich emergence of new applications including multi-media handsets, ubiquitous smart sensors and actuators, and wearable or implantable biomedical devices. New ultra-low power circuit techniques are constantly being proposed to further improve the energy efficiency of electronic circuits. A critical part of these energy conscious systems are the ene

Abstract:
This PhD thesis examines the role of nuclear energy in the transition to a low carbon economy in the United Kingdom. Theories of sustainable development, including ecological modernisation, are used to frame its findings and emerging geographies of nuclear new build are explored. Analysis of policy shows that recent narrative from government has been inconsistent on the quantification of the carbon footprint of nuclear energy. The relatively low carbon footprint of nuclear energy, when compared to fossil fuel alternatives, is found to be a significant factor, alongside increased energy securit
