The fusion-evaporation reactions Si-28(S-32,1 alpha 2p1n)Fe-53 at 125 MeV and Mg-24(S-32,2p1n)Fe-53 at a 95-MeV beam energy were used to investigate excited states in Fe-53. The combination of the Gammasphere Ge detector array and ancillary devices led to the construction of an extensive level scheme comprising some 90 transitions connecting 40 states. The lifetime of the yrast 25/2(-) state and u
På grund av svåra metodologiska och praktiska svårigheter domineras forskning om bolagsstyrning i allmänhet och styrelseeffektivitet i synnerhet av relativt ytliga modeller. Så kallade black boxstudier är mycket vanliga, och kontrasteras mest av rent konceptuella modeller utan kvantitativa amibitioner. Den här uppsatsen kikar in i den svarta lådan och utforskar den interpersonella kontexten i styrDue to severe methodological and practical difficulties, research on corporate governance in general and board performance in particular is dominated by relatively shallow models. So called black box studies are very common, and are contrasted mainly by conceptual models without any quantitative ambitions. This paper peeks into the black box, exploring the interpersonal context within the board ro
Flygprestanda AB supplies IT services for airline operations, management and control. The system delivered to facilitate this is the Flight Operation Control System or FOCS. This thesis addresses the Schedule View service included in the FOCS system. The Schedule View is a tool where the user gets an overview of aircrafts and planned flights. In addition aircrafts and flights can be added and modi
Gehörsundervisning är ofta obligatoriskt i musikutbildningar. Trots att många moment inom gehörsundervisning, såsom prima vista-sång, kräver en mängd kognitiva färdigheter visar tidigare forskning att den kognitiva sidan av gehör sällan behandlas inom musikpedagogiken. I studien analyseras forskningsresultat från musikpedagogik och mer kognitionsinriktad forskning för att undersöka i vad mån resul
Forskning har kunnat visa att aktiv framplockning av tidigare inlärda minnen kan hämma framplockning av konkurrerande minnen vilket leder till en framplockningsinducerad glömska, kallad retrieval-induced forgetting, RIF. Denna form av glömska tillskrivs ofta en kognitivt inhiberande process som aktiveras för att försvåra framplockning av icke relevanta konkurrerande minnen till förmån för underlätResearch has shown that active retrieval of previously learned memories can diminish retrieval of other concurring memories leading to what is known as retrieval-induced forgetting, RIF. This form of forgetting is often ascribed to a cognitive inhibition-process thought to be activated to reduce retrieval of not relevant concurring memories in favour of retrieval of sought after memories.

An improved synthetic route to the bicyclo[2.2.2]octane-2,6-diol ligands (2,6-BODOLS) allowed an increased structural variation of the ligand side-arm. The addition of aromatic or vinylic Grignard reagents to hydroxyketone 1 was highly selective and ligands 3f-3I were isolated in 84-97% yield. The addition of alkyl Grignard reagents containing beta-hydrogens resulted in lower yields (13-71%) due t
The gene encoding an alkaline active cyclodextrin glycosyltransferase (CGTase) from the alkaliphilic B. agaradhaerens LS-3C was cloned and sequenced. It encodes a mature polypeptide of 679 amino acids with a molecular mass of 76 488 Da. The deduced amino acid sequence of the mature CGTase revealed 99 and 95% identity to the CGTase sequences from the other B. agaradhaerens strains, DSM 8721T and 99
The aim of this study was to develop a model for the quantification of the occupant risk in residential fires. The model should make it possible to quantitatively evaluate which effect the presence of a residential sprinkler has on the fire development. Statistics on causes and outcomes of residential fires were used as background material for the model development. A literature review was carried
Based on a discrete choice experiment with 336 consumers, this study investigated whether the consumer propensity to choose a simplified European Union (EU) vs. non-EU denomination of origin for beef, instead of a specific country-of-origin (COO) denomination, depends upon the amount and type of credence information provided to the individual. The likelihood of choosing the EU/non-EU denomination
