In attosecond physics, pump-probe experiments have been a promising tool to study the fundamental light-matter interaction process of photoionization. In this context, photoelectron spectroscopy is used to spatially and temporally characterize the ejected photoelecron. Low repetition rates can be limited in resolution by space-charge effects \cite{spacecharge} and measurement statistics which can

The aim of this essay is to examine young men's stories and thoughts about the violence and the street shootings that have been committed in Malmö in recent years. The stories and thoughts are thus aimed to identify some forcings behind the violence in the city. By listening to the young men's stories, the purpose is to portray norms and factors that contribute to criminal activities among

Människan har genom alla tider givit upphov till avfall. I takt med att utvecklingen fortskridit har även mängden avfall ökat vilket ställt krav på en effektiv avfallshantering. Deponering och kompostering är några av de metoder som används för omhändertagandet av avfall där mängden organiskt avfall som deponeras har minskat till följd av de förbud som införts. Mängden organiskt material som omhänThrough time, mankind have given rise to waste. Along with the evolvement of technology the amount of waste has steadily increased which in turn have put high demands on waste management. Landfills and composts are some of the methods used for treatment of waste where the amount of organic waste that is being landfilled has decreased due to restrictions. The amount of organic waste that is being t

This study will examine how relative solmization can be used to teach children and young people how to sing and read sheet music. Data collection was done using four methods; case study, observation, qualitative interview and stimulated recall. The literature chapter of this study accounts for the differences between absolute and relative solmization, and then describes relative solmization based

När massiva träbjälklag används i byggnader är dimensioneringen ofta styrd av krav på utböjningen. För att minska utböjningen för ett bjälklag måste böjstyvheten ökas. Ökning av böjstyvheten för ett bjälklag kan antingen ske genom en ökad höjd eller genom användning av material med högre styvhet. Den vanligaste metoden för att öka böjstyvheten är genom att öka höjden på bjälklaget. I denna rapportWhen massive timber decks are used in buildings the design is often regulated by serviceability limit state (SLS), mainly the vibration criteria. To decrease the risk for vibrations of a deck the bending stiffness needs to be increased. To increase the bending stiffness of the deck either the depth of the deck can be increased or the stiffness of the used material. The most common way to increase

The study adapts on the cybernetic controls part of the framework of Malmi and Brown (2008) elaborating the discussion to resolve the limitations of traditional accounting practices with the combination of modern accounting techniques. Since some conventional practices of accounting are no longer commensurate to the contemporary lean manufacturing environment, the emerging techniques come in place

This paper investigates the journalistic language in El País, Spain’s most read newspaper, with the aim to problematize the use of male generic nouns in Spanish. According to our theoretical framework, the feminist critique of language, male generic nouns are considered to be the result of a patriarchal and androcentric system. Thus, the analysis studies how and to which extent the usage of male g

Dagens stadsbyggnadsprojekt är komplexa och många funktioner ska trängas på en liten yta i våra städer. I ett försök att ge grönstruktur i städer större plats har flera kommuner runt om i landet börjat ställa krav kring grönytefaktor; ett sätt att mäta mängden grönska på tomter i staden. I denna studie undersöktes vilken effekt detta krav har på samhällsbyggandet och hur det fungerar i samspelet mAbstract Title: Green Area Factor in affect – How does the implementation of Green Area Factor requirements work in Sweden today?

This study evaluates investments in education and schooling outcomes of children in households that engage in internal migration. Using panel data from Indonesia, community and household fixed effects are employed to account for unobserved heterogeneity and self-selection of migrants. Maternal migration is found to be associated with an average 30% reduction of educational expenditure and worse sc

Intertriginös dermatit (Intertrigo) är en hudsjukdom som orsakas av friktion i hudveck. Värme och fukt inducerar en inflammation i huden som orsakar smärta och ofta leder till sekundära infektioner. Det här examensarbetet har ämnat utveckla en produktprototyp för en topikal filmdeponerande emulsion som kan användas av patienter som lider av Intertrigo. Produkten ska förebygga inflammation genom atIntertriginous dermatitis (Intertrigo) is a skin disease caused by friction between adjacent skin surfaces. Heat and moisture induces an inflammation, causing pain and often secondary infections. The aim of this degree project was to develop a prototype for a topical film forming emulsion for patients suffering from Intertrigo. The prototype should deposit a film on epidermis which decreases frict

This thesis explores the relationship between the reader or buyer of books and the brand of the publisher on the Swedish book market. The aim is to investigate whether the name or logotype of the publisher is important for the average reader and what aspects might be more or less important than the publisher. A digital survey was sent out to reach a wide range of informants. Three focus groups wer

In 2009 the Swedish police organization was presented to a new set of core values, meant to clarify their mission for themselves as well as for the public, and to consequently make Swedish police better. But what role does such core values play in an organization like the police, whose professional behavior is already controlled by the law? Defined as a moral risk group, numeral research points to

The topic of eco-innovation has gained much traction over the last decade due to its potential to improve environmental sustainability without compromising socio-economic goals. This thesis presents a descriptive analysis of the national and regional patterns of eco-innovation in Sweden using new long-run data over the period of 1970-2013 from the SWINNO database. Results show that the long-run ag

The importance of investing in low-tech industries has been underestimated for a long time because of its low R&D input to output ratio. But in reality, so-called high-tech industries only account for 3 per cent of value added in the OECD, while low-tech industries, such as the food industry, indeed do not lack the opportunities of benefiting from innovation. The driving forces of innovation h

This paper investigates how multilingual speakers may recognize compounds, focusing on the theory that a multilingual recognizes a compound equivalent of a compound faster than a monomorphemic equivalent of a compound. To test this, I administered a translation recognition task to native speakers of Swedish who spoke English as their first L2. The informants were shown the pairs in sequence and ei

Geomagnetically induced currents (GIC) arise in our power system due to fluctuationsin the earths magnetic field, which commonly is caused by space weather events. Thesecurrents may result in core saturation for transformers that get exposed. The purposeof this project is to clarify the possibility of reconnecting the delta connected tertiarywindings in order to mitigate the saturation that is cau

This thesis is a qualitative interview-study of the working conditions for female journalists within an Indian and Keralan context focusing on the female body and spaces. The study takes place in the Keralan society focusing on how women journalists cope with working in a traditional male dominated area and how the female body somehow is seen as an invader in the journalism field, based on pre-ass

This thesis examines the frontier defensive system found in the vicinity of the Roman auxiliary fort near modern-day Bologa, Cluj County, Romania. The goal is to study the visual relationship between the more certain watchtowers and the other military installations (the auxiliary fort and other fortlets) to understand how arrangements and visibility might have contributed to the functioning of the

Even though Evelyn Waugh’s Brideshead Revisited and Donna Tartt’s The Secret History were written almost fifty years apart, they share many similarities. They are both forms of academic novels and they both depict the University and College as places excluded from the surrounding world where the characters can act out their desires in their adolescent years before they enter adulthood. In both nov

A Song of Ice and Fire (1996-Present) is a series of fantasy books written by George R.R. Martin. In this series, the concept of ‘prophecy’ plays a major role, as it does in many works of literature, both within the fantasy genre and in literary fiction in general. This essay defines prophecy in a literary context, looking at how prophecies are used to drive a narrative and what other purposes the
