This Element reviews the existing literature on the matter and argues that it must go beyond the typical explanations of knowledge and language differences and look at more fundamental, societal, and cultural explanations. The empirical focus of this Element is the history and possible p

This letter proposes a novel wideband, single-layer monopolar antenna with high selectivity and enhanced pattern stability across the operating band. Building upon a conventional circular patch antenna, the rejection levels of the upper and lower sidebands are carefully analyzed, designed, and optimized to achieve the desired performance. To further improve performance, a shorting-via-loaded ring

Group Exhibition. Participating artists: Daniel Boyd, Vija Celmins, David Horvitz, Bouchra Khalili, Judy Radul, Thomas Ruff, Carrie Mae Weems, Urban Subjects (Sabine Bitter, Jeff Derksen, and Helmut Weber), Paul Wong.Star Witnesses assembles works by a constellation of artists whose insightful observations of the cosmos bring new understandings of exploratory and migratory movements on Planet Eart

The CSDDD, the EU’s mandatory due diligence directive, is a landmark addition to the EU’s corporate sustainability framework that transforms previously voluntary norms into binding law. Its mandatory due diligence obligations require companies to identify, assess, and address adverse human rights and environmental impacts in their chain of activities, both within and outside the EU. The aim is to

Background: Multimorbidity is increasingly acknowledged as a significant health concern, particularly among older individuals. It is associated with a decline in quality of life and psychosocial well-being as well as an increased risk of being referred to multiple healthcare providers, including more frequent admissions to emergency departments. Person-centered care interventions tailored to indiv

We investigate the fragmentation dynamics of adamantane dications produced after core-ionization at the carbon edge followed by Auger decay. The combination of high-resolution electron spectroscopy, energy-resolved electron-ion multi-coincidence spectroscopy and different theoretical models allows us to give a complete characterization of the processes involved after ionization. We show that energ

Bat ultrasound analysis has been around for several decades and it is one of the most important tools in studies of bat ecology. Discrimination between species is based on intra-specific features of echolocation calls. Identification of species and genera in audio files can be attempted either manually or through software which performs a fully automated discrimination between species. However, si

This thesis devolops a general formalism for continuous feedback control in quantum systems. The main result is a quantum Fokker-Planck master equation describing the joint dynamics of a quantum system and a detector with finite bandwidth. For a fast detector, this equation can be reduced to a Markovian master equation for the system dynamics. In particular, the formalism is amenable to analytical

Moving into a nursing home is a significant transition for older people which can be emotional and stressful. The literature on the decision to move and subsequent residential stress focuses on the time after admission; however, there is less understanding of older people’s management of the process. To fully understand and possibly reduce negative consequences and health-related risks, the aim of

Vid till- och nybyggnation i detaljplanerade områden finns det ett antal punkter som måste vara uppfyllda för att bygglov ska beviljas. Detta omfattar bland annat att ansökan ska följa gällande detaljplan samt att de krav och skyddsbestämmelser som finns i Plan- och bygglag (2010:900) ska vara uppfyllda. Ett av dessa krav är anpassningskravet i 2 kap. 6 § 1p PBL. Denna uppsats syftar till att geWhen granting a building permit for changes in detailed development areas, such as alterations and new construction, several requirements must be met. The application must comply with the detailed development plan, but also that the applicable regulations regarding the requirements and protective provisions are complied with. One of these requirements is the adaptation requirement (anpassningskrav

The past decade and a half has seen the design and execution of several ground-based spectroscopic surveys, both Galactic and Extragalactic. Additionally, new surveys are being designed that extend the boundaries of current surveys. In this context, many important considerations must be done when designing a spectrograph for the future. Among these is the determination of the optimum wavelength co

In February 2013, the United States and the European Union announced to start negotiations on a comprehensive Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership. If these negotiations lead to a free trade agreement between the United States and the European Union, the two markets together will form the largest trading bloc in the world. The US and EU are already each other’s main trading partners and

Fram till för några decennier sedan, innan ordförande Maos död, var Kina avstängt från resten av världen. Idag är Kina världens näst största ekonomi och en mycket attraktiv destination för utländska investeringar. Medan denna ekonomiska explosion har medfört enorm teknikutveckling för Kina, har vissa observatörer påstått att dessa framsteg har kommit genom det som kallas "tvångsöverföring av Up until a few decades ago, before the death of Chairman Mao, China was closed off from the rest of the world. Today, China is the second largest economy in the world and a very attractive destination for foreign investment. While this economic explosion has brought with it tremendous advancement in technology for China, some observers have alleged that these advancements have come through what is

Minoritetsstress på grund av etnisk bakgrund är ett nytt område inom forskningsfältet minoritetsstress. Det saknas ett mätinstrument för denna typ av stress. Denna studie syftade till att utifrån Meyers (2003) koncept minoritetsstress, konstruera ett mätinstrument för mätning av etnisk minoritetstress (EMS); samt se minoritetsstressens relation till allmän stress, anknytning och coping för att undMinority stress due to ethnic background is a new area in the research field. Based on Meyer's (2003) concept of minority stress, this study aimed to construct an instrument for measuring ethnic minority stress (EMS); and study minority stress and its relation to general stress, attachment and coping to investigate whether attachment and coping can become dimensions that can be used to disting

The study investigated how a case study through method triangulation can contribute to anuanced and detailed understanding of what challenges and strategies can be experienced in the development of group dynamics in a virtual team. With a theoretical basis in Tuckman phases of group development, Systems centered theory and An integrated model of group development, the team's attachment to the

Denna uppsats behandlar upphovsrättsliga intrång vid myntandet av Non Fungible Tokens (NFTs). Samtidigt som en ny värld av möjligheter har öppnat upp sig för rättighetsinnehavare och kreatörer i samband med NFTs framväxt har också en rad juridiska problem och otydligheter uppkommit. Teknikens utveckling sker i en hastighet som juridiken sällan kan upprätthålla. Tillämpligheten och kompatibilitetenThe introduction of Non Fungible Tokens (NFTs) on the digital crypto market provides copyright holders new opportunities to exhibit, distribute and capitalize on their works. NFTs are cryptographic tokens connected to specified assets. The assets are usually digital files, but NFTs can be connected to tangible assets as well. The connection between a NFT and an asset is made in the creation proces
