Populärvetenskaplig sammanfattning Metallorganisk kemi är en gren av kemin som fokuserar på att utveckla nya reaktioner med hjälp av övergångsmetaller som t.ex. järn, kobolt och guld. Genom att använda övergångsmetaller i kemi är det möjligt att bilda nya reaktioner som man med konventionell organisk kemi inte kan få tillgång till. Dessutom är selektivitet, avfallsminskning, minimering av biprodukSeveral N-heterocyclic gold (I) complexes were synthesized featuring both the bis-(2,4,6-trimethylphenyl)imidazolium carbene (IMes) ligand and the bis-(1,3-diisopropylphenyl)imidazolium carbene(IPr) ligand. Complexes of the form LAuCl, LAuOtBu, and LAuPh (L = IMes, IPr) were synthesized and characterized using 1H-NMR. Two updated crystal structures of IMesAuPh and chloro(dimethylsulfide)gold(I) we

Studiens syfte är att undersöka möjliga situationer där kvalitetsbristkostnader uppkommer och de former av samordning som kan användas för konsulter i projekteringsfasen. Detta för att möjliggöra slutsatser kring hur ett projekts samordning av konsulter bör utformas för att minimera kvalitetsbristkostnader i projekteringsfasen. Målsättningen är att uppmärksamma de områden där man kan utveckla arbeThe purpose of the study is to investigate possible situations where costs of poor quality arise and the form of coordination that is used for consultants during the design phase. Through this being able to draw conclusions on how the consultants of a project should be coordinated to minimize the cost of poor quality during the design phase. The objective is to highlight on the areas where working

Teleportering – att förflytta människor och ting mellan två platser utan att de faktiskt reser mellan dem – har länge varit en del av science fiction berättelser, som exempelvis Star Trek. Fram till 90-talet så förblev teleportering en science fiction dröm, men 1993 så föreslog Charles H. Bennett och medarbetare ett sätt att få teleportering att bli verklighet. 1997 så utfördes ett experiment i ÖsQuantum teleportation is a way to transfer a quantum state between two locations, by utilizing a shared entangled state, measurements and the ability to communicate measurement outcomes between the two locations. This thesis consists of a theoretical investigation of an experiment that would implement quantum teleportation using single-electron states in mesoscopic architectures. First, we studied

Under de senaste decennierna har samhället genomgått en snabb teknologisk utveckling som resulterat i nya arbetssätt. Det är nu lättare än någonsin att arbeta var, när och hur man vill. Att världen drabbades av en pandemi under inledningen av 2020 accelererade den teknologiska utvecklingen. Digitala arbetssätt blev därmed vardag för majoriteten av den kontorsarbetande befolkningen. När det bevisliIn recent decades, society has undergone rapid technological development, resulting in new ways of working. It is now easier than ever to work where, when and how you want. A global pandemic at the start of 2020 accelerated technological progress. Digital ways of working thus became commonplace for the majority of the office-working population. With the evidence that remote working is productive,

Beräkningsmodeller kan hjälpa oss förstå benvävnadens unika förmåga att avleda sprickor och skydda sig mot benbrott Sannolikheten att råka ut för ett benbrott ökar för äldre och bensköra personer. Hos en ung och frisk person så har benvävnaden i vårt skelett en unik förmåga att skydda sig mot benbrott genom att avleda mikrosprickor. Men med ålder och sjukdom blir skelett svagare och sprickor och Human cortical bone tissue is a complex and strong composite material, with the ability to resist damage via slowing, stopping or redirecting propagating cracks. However, the ability is impaired with age. At the microscale, changes are seen both in terms of increased porosity and as changes in local material parameters. The microstructure is based on circular concentric layers of bone tissue, call

While studies on the relationship between health, income, healthcare spending and productivity is generally consistent, little attention has been brought to the regional contexts. Meanwhile, a country like Sweden who is generally known for a well-established healthcare system and welfare state, experiences increasing regional disparities. This thesis investigates the relationship between health, i

Efforts to regulate transnational corporations in the context of human rights are not new. They traced back to the early 1970s, when the United Nations first initiated attempts to study the impact of transnational corporations on the international development process and proposed a United Nations Code of Conduct on Transnational Corporations, an initiative that ultimately stalled. A renewed attemp

Från industriella restprodukter till grönt drivmedel – två vägar mot förnybara bränslen. Bio-olja från skogsrester kräver uppgradering för att kunna behandlas i befintliga oljeraffinaderier. Två innovativa processer visar potential, men tekniska och ekonomiska utmaningar framstår. Att minska beroendet av fossila bränslen är avgörande för att nå klimatmålen. Ett lovande alternativ är att producerThis master’s thesis evaluates the commercial-scale feasibility of two processes that upgrade lignocellulosic bio-oil: dewatering and derivatization upgrading (DDU) and green cooking and cleaning (GCC). Both processes aim to produce upgraded bio-oil suitable for co-processing in existing oil refineries, though they differ significantly in complexity. GCC includes the entire conversion from raw bio

Objectives: To examine the effects of thiopurine exposure during pregnancy on intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy (ICP) in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) pregnancies using nationwide data from Swedish healthcare registers. Methods: This register-based cohort study included all singleton pregnancies with prevalent SLE or IBD in Sweden, 2007-2022. Exposure

Informal carers in paid work are known as working carers (WKCs). This combination of care and work is particular to them, and their support needs may differ from other informal carers. This exploratory study describes the caregiving-related factors associated with experiencing caregiving as demanding and a decreased ability to work in WKCs. The Swedish National Carer Survey was conducted in a stra
