A search for the Standard Model Higgs boson decaying into a pair of tau leptons is reported. The analysis is based on a data sample of proton-proton collisions collected by the ATLAS experiment at the LHC and corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 4.7 fb(-1). No significant excess over the expected background is observed in the Higgs boson mass range of 100-150GeV. The observed (expected) up

Growing research on social capital and health has fuelled the debate on whether there is a place effect on health. A central question is whether health inequality between places is due to differences in the composition of people living in these places (compositional effect) or differences in the local social and physical environments (contextual effects). Despite extensive use of multilevel approa

A search for the production of three Higgs bosons ((Formula presented)) in the (Formula presented) final state is presented. The search uses (Formula presented) of proton-proton collision data at (Formula presented) collected with the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider. The analysis targets both nonresonant and resonant production of (Formula presented). The resonant interpretations prima

Introduction: Flexible Assertive Community Treatment (FACT) is implemented in Swedish general Mental Health Services. While FACT focuses on supporting the participation and personal recovery of individuals with complex mental health needs, critical components enabling these aspects are poorly understood. The aim of this study was to understand the critical components of FACT delivery supporting pa

A set of measurements for the production of a W-boson in association with high-transverse-momentum jets is presented using 140 fb-1 of proton–proton collision data at a centre-of-mass energy of s=13 TeV collected by the ATLAS detector at the LHC. The measurements are performed in final states in which the W-boson decays into an electron or muon plus a neutrino and is produced in association with j

Background: The number of people with a migration background and dementia is increasing in Europe. All patients with suspected dementia have the right to an appropriate cognitive assessment and correct diagnosis for optimal treatment and support. Rowland Universal Dementia Assessment Scale (RUDAS) cognitive screening instrument is less affected by language, culture, and educational background, and

Today heritage is considered to be an important resource for society and a valuable asset for sustainable development. This notion is true from international to local/regional level. This thesis investigates the current heritage discourse in the European Union (EU) and provides a qualitative assessment of the values and potential impacts of the two case studies, conducted in the proceedings of thi

Climate migration is an emerging topic of research and policymaking in the region of Asia and the Pacific. Migration in the context of climate change is mediated by social, political, and historical factors not solely dependent on the impacts of climate change. Also, migration, including climate migration, is a socially unequal process and has differential impacts on people based on their identity

Elater ferrugineus is a threatened click beetle inhabiting old hollow trees. Its larvae consume larvae of other saproxylic insects including the threatened scarab beetle Osmoderma eremita. Recently, (R)-(+)-gamma-decalactone was identified as a male-produced sex pheromone of O. eremita. Here we present evidence that E. ferrugineus adults use this odor as a kairomone for location of their prey. In

A method for the determination of hexahydrophthalic acid, a metabolite of hexahydrophthalic anhydride, in human urine has been developed. The urine was worked-up by liquid-solid extraction, esterified with boron trifluoride-methanol, and analysed by capillary gas chromatography and selected-ion monitoring. Hexadeuterium-labelled hexahydrophthalic acid was used as the internal standard. The precisi

Greece in a period of financial crisis (2008-2013) is questioning the success of its policy implementation. The training centers for the intellectually disabled, as implementers of policies and programs on a national and European level, also question that success. Using Foucault’s concept of power relations within society, it is aimed to find whether policies and programmes for the intellectually

This study explores two forms of oppressions facing Palestinian women in the Occupied Palestinian Territories: the Israeli Occupation and the Patriarchal Structure in their society. The purpose of the study is to examine how these oppressions intersect and impact Palestinian women’s daily life and their struggle for gender equality. Two question, in accordance with the study’s purpose were of part

The enunciation of the principle of equality and non-discrimination is of fundamental source in international human rights laws and EU-law and has a prominent place in the Icelandic constitution. The principles of equality and non-discrimination are based on various legal concepts that have evolved mainly in international and regional human rights or equality jurisprudence. International legal pro

This paper explores the relationship between Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) and the video game industry, taking video game studios as the main subjects. The aim was to understand the perceived importance of implementing CSR initiatives within businesses and to ascertain the current state of the industry in regard to the subject. A review of the literature was conducted in order to comprehen

Social economy organisations are attributed a major role in solving societal and environmental problems and in implementing social innovations in Europe. These organisations are private entities running economic activities whose main purpose is to provide goods and services to their members or the community at large, with profits coming second. Nevertheless, these organisations are not suffici

Education for sustainability (EfS) has been regarded a promising approach for solving sustainability challenges. Results have been unsatisfying due to a knowledge-dissemination focus in the formal sector. Reasons are economic and political interests shaping formal education. Therefore, hopes are placed in the non-formal sector to close this knowledge-to-action gap. In this case study, I aim to und

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to investigate the role of working from home within family friendly work policies (FFWPs) and its relationship to firm performance, and whether this is affected by the choice of management practices within an organization. Methodology: A cross-sectional dataset from 2004, including data from 732 firms and four countries, accessed through World Management Sur
