This paper presents results of an all-sky search for periodic gravitational waves in the frequency range [50, 1190] Hz and with frequency derivative range of similar to[-20, 1.1] x 10(-10) Hz s(-1) for the fifth LIGO science run (S5). The search uses a noncoherent Hough-transform method to combine the information from coherent searches on time scales of about one day. Because these searches are ve

This paper discusses the housing situation of urban dwellers in Hanoi in the transition period from state housing provision to privatisation and market-driven housing. Based on field studies in a residential area of Hanoi with Soviet-style apartment blocks, the paper shows how new housing policies are contributing to strengthening inequality as 'winners' and 'losers' emerge. The entrepreneurial, t

The rural mountain communities have long faced challenges from a range of social, economic, political and environmental factors and the threat from these factors has only intensified due to the current climate change. This study was conducted in South Sikkim, a mountain region located in the Indian Eastern Himalaya, to get a deeper insight of the multitude of barriers and stresses that a poor rura

The objective of Lund University’s work environment management is to create an environment that you find rewarding and stimulating. Consideration of the work environment and safety is to be integrated into everything we do and form a natural part of all operational planning.By offering a stimulating workplace, we help employees to thrive and perform well.

This thesis uses Vietnamese household’s surveys from 2006 and 2008 to assess income inequality in Vietnam and households access to credit in order to boost their income. Three econometric models are introduced to explain which factors affect income, household’s value and loan value, all important factors in order to obtain loans in theory. The Vietnamese financial market is still underdeveloped wh

About the evaluationsAn important part of the faculty’s quality assurance system is that external assessment panels review and evaluate the quality of the study programmes. The faculty's degree programmes are evaluated every six years, according to the faculty's quality plan.The evaluations should be:Development- and quality-driven.Consider the strengths, challenges and development opportunities o

The Milky Way is expected to host an accreted disc of stars and dark matter. This forms as massive greater than or similar to 1 : 10 mergers are preferentially dragged towards the disc plane by dynamical friction and then tidally shredded. The accreted disc likely contributes only a tiny fraction of the MilkyWay's thin and thick stellar disc. However, it is interesting because (i) its associated '

Smärta och psykisk ohälsa är de vanligaste orsakerna till besök hos läkare och annan vårdpersonal i primärvården. Vi har visat i våra studier att 10% av alla barn i åldrarna 1-12 år och 20% av alla barn i åldrarna 13-18 år söker vård för ospecifik smärta årligen. Det innebär att mer än 300000 barn i skolåldern just nu har smärta som påverkar dem in den grad att de behöver söka vård. Dessa sjukdomaPain and mental illness are the most common reasons for visits to doctors and other healthcare professionals in primary care. These diseases can be caused by many different things and also often occur simultaneously in the same individual. We have shown in our studies that 10% of all children aged 1-12 years and 20% of all children aged 13-18 years seek care for non-specific pain annually. This me

Calcium-rich supernovae (SNe) represent a significant challenge for our understanding of the fates of stellar systems. They are less luminous than other SN types and they evolve more rapidly to reveal nebular spectra dominated by strong calcium lines with weak or absent signatures of other intermediate-and iron-group elements, which are seen in other SNe. Strikingly, their explosion sites also mar

As we’re living in a modern society, most of us have been connected to the water and electricity grid, However, there’re still billions of people who are still lack of reliable water and electricity resource. In some developing countries like India and Philippines, the demand for electricity and water are far more than actual production, which causes frequent electricity and water shortage problem
