In the context of an infrastructure project UAV-electromagnetic measurements at five areas in southern parts of Sweden are conducted to study the variation of depth to the bedrock. The source signals are the distant radio transmitters in the band 15-350 kHz. The example shown in this work is from Area 5 where the underlying bedrock is a gneissic granite with reasonably high resistivity. The resist
Brent geese, Branta bernicia hrota, were equipped with satellite transmitters on a spring stop-over site in Iceland. The brent geese deposit heavy fuel reserves for long-distance flights across the high Greenland ice-cap to breeding destinations in north Canada. Satellite tracking of brent geese on this journey serves the twofold purpose of testing specific predictions about: (i) size-dependent po
The transition to farming in the coastal environments of southern Scandinavia remains a key conundrum in European prehistory. This region was heavily exploited by Late Mesolithic communities of the Ertebølle culture, complex hunter-fisher-gatherers who flourished for some 1500 years prior to the arrival of farming at around 4000 BCE marking the start of the Neolithic period.

In 2018, an AI system named by its creator DABUS (Device for the Autonomous Bootstrapping of Unified Sentience) was credited by its creator to have independently invented a neural flame and a fractal container. According to its creator, DABUS is a ‘sentient artificial general intelligence can replicate all aspects of human cognition, including perception, creativity, consciousness, and sentience’
The digitalisation of courtrooms brings both opportunities and challenges to the judicial process, shaping our understandings of trials and their participants in a myriad of, at times, unexpected ways, and transforming how we participate in, attend, engage with, and consume trials. While digital tools offer potential benefits, they can also impact core aspects of judicial integrity, such as the co
Altermagnetism exhibits unique physical properties such as spin-momentum locking, anomalous Hall effect, nontrivial topological phase, and giant magnetoresistance. Among all the predicted candidates, several room-temperature altermagnets are suggested to host significant potential applications. RuO2 has been proposed as the most promising candidate. However, recently, there is intense debate about
Proton exchange membranes (PEMs) are critical to the performance of vanadium redox flow batteries (VRFBs). Still, conventional perfluorosulfonic acid membranes such as Nafion® suffer from poor ion selectivity and limited long-term stability. In this study, we introduce PEMs prepared from four types of poly(arylene perfluorobenzenesulfonic acid)s, synthesized via polyhydroxyalkylations of biphenyl
The design of iron complexes with long-lived charge transfer states suitable for applications as photosensitizers remains a formidable challenge. Here, we investigated the effect of an extended ligand π-system on the ground- and excited-state properties of iron(II) complexes with N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) ligands. For this purpose, three iron complexes based on the established [Fe(II)(pbmi)2]2+
Pontocerebellar hypoplasia type 10 (PCH10) is a very rare autosomal recessive neurodegenerative disease characterized by intellectual disability, microcephaly, severe developmental delay, pyramidal signs, mild cerebellar atrophy, and white matter changes in the brain, as shown by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). The disease has been described in only twenty-one patients from ten Turkish families
We demonstrate the first fully vertical single-fin AlGaN FinFETs (Al = 2.5%) on ammonothermal n+-GaN substrates, featuring a gate length of Lg = 200 nm and excellent gate control. This work presents a systematic study of the impact of fin orientation along the a- and m-crystallographic planes on the electrical performance of AlGaN vertical FinFETs. We report that threshold voltage is maximized at
Serious Games have gained increased attention in sustainability education. I developed a Serious Game that aims to increase sustainability competencies related to water problems among university students. I applied socio-constructivist learning theory to investigate how sustainability competency can be operationalised in learning outcomes and how these can be translated into game elements. Methodo
To analyse tuberculosis both in present and historic times becomes very important in order to understand the magnitude of this disease. The presented information in this thesis was based on a quantitative analysis of skeletal traits and aDNA used to diagnose tuberculosis in skeletal material and mummified remains. The material was collected from 51 articles, books and theses from the year 2000 unt
As technology advances and population rises, requirements for everyday doors change. In the industrial sector, companies have to keep up with the increase in supply and demand. A well-functioning industrial folding door contributes to a steady flow of goods. Folding doors come in many different sizes and are often installed in narrow spaces. In order for any door supplier to stay competitive, offe
The purpose of this study is to investigate the feasibility of both online and offline fault location and state of health technologies for airport series circuits used to provide power to light fixtures on the runway. In current series circuits, only some ground faults can be detected and no automated fault location or state of health features are available. Fault location is currently performed w
Uppsatsen tar sitt avstamp i den politiska nollvisionen att inga barn ska vräkas. En utredning av gällande rätt klargör att även om det kan finnas en lagstadgad social rätt till bostad för barn så är denna inte så väldefinierad och reglerad att den är utkrävbar i domstol. Hyreslagen i jordabalkens 12:e kapitel ger så små möjligheter att i begränsade fall ta hänsyn till att barn kan beröras av en aThis study takes it start in the political vision zero regarding avoiding evictions of families with children. A thorough investigation of de lege lata gives the result that although Swedish law grants children a social right to housing this right is not defined to the point that it can be claimed in a court of law. Swedish rental property law, 12th chapter of the Land Code, jordabalken, gives nil
The goal of this essay has been to analyze how hospital counselors establish a professional relationship with dying patients and treat them with compassion and professionalism. We wanted to find out how a counselor creates a supportive conversation and how a balance through closeness and distance is established. A qualitative study was done were we interviewed eight hospital counselors tied to pal
The aim of this thesis was threefold: (i) study the association behaviour of β-casein, (ii) study the electrostatic and conformational properties of β-casein, and (iii) evaluate the possibility of using β-casein as a model protein for the acidic proline rich protein (PRP-1). Dynamic light scattering (DLS) was used to determine the size of β-casein aggregates that were formed in aqueous solutions
The purpose of this essay is to give an image of the importance of humanitarian demining, it's difficulties and to what extent GPS can be a tool for this. A human rights perspective is used towards this through the entire work for what IMAS gives the parameters. GPS is a tool among others in the humanitarian demining process. GPS can be a tool in humanitarian demining especially in mapping min
The purpose of this study was to examine how mangers in eldercare in the municipality of Helsingborg view the causes of burnout among employees and staff members, how they handle the situation when burnout appear and which preventive measures they use at the working site. The purpose was also to examine if the facts mentioned by the managers was supported by former studies and already existing res
The aim of the study was to examine how Registered Nurses perceive ethical problems within healthcare and enlighten the ongoing discussions concerning them. Five Registered Nurses at a surgical ward were interviewed in order to perform an empirical study. A literature review was also done where five articles were analysed. The findings show that the patients autonomy, personal sphere and rights, s
