The theory of quantum thermodynamics predicts fundamental bounds on work extraction from quantum states. As these bounds are derived in a very general and abstract setting, it is unclear how relevant they are in an experimental context, where control is typically limited. Here we address this question by showing that optimal work extraction is possible for a realistic engine. The latter consists o
Indacaterol (IND; 150 μg), glycopyrronium (GLY; 50 μg) and mometasone furoate (MF; 160 μg [high-dose ICS] and 80 μg [medium-dose ICS]) have been formulated as a once-daily (o.d.) fixed-dose combination treatment delivered via the Breezhaler® device for the treatment of patients with asthma. In this randomized (n = 116), double-blind, double-dummy, active comparator-controlled, three-period cross-o
It has often been argued that the Earth is like an island in space and that its brittleness is most clearly reflected on small islands in the oceans. Easter Island, in particular, with its largely depleted resources, has been seen as a microcosmic warning about what could happen to our entire planet. However, the analogy of the Earth and islands with finite natural resources is not self-evident fr
This doctoral thesis examines the attribution of criminal responsibility in Swedish law in cases where the defendant committed an act during an atypical mental state, e.g. psychosis. In nearly all criminal justice systems, a severe mental disorder can activate special rules that excuse or exempt the defendant. Accountability, or the capacity to be responsible, is a fundamental requirement for crim
Spatial Data Infrastructure (SDI) provides a platform for spatial data sharing and is a key for sustainable development. Developing countries, including Tanzania, are at different stages of implementing SDIs. The importance and advantage of implementation lie in the fact that considerable funds can be saved by avoiding duplication of data, and improving quality of decisions making as well as publi
Curved crystal surfaces enable the systematic and accurate comparison of physical and chemical processes for a full set of vicinal crystal planes, which are probed in the very same environment. Here, we examine the early stages of the CO chemisorption on vicinal Rh(111) surfaces using a curved Rh crystal that exposes a smoothly variable density of {100} (A-type) and {111} (B-type) steps. We readil
Streams of stars from captured dwarf galaxies and dissolved globular clusters are identifiable through the similarity of their orbital parameters, a fact that remains true long after the streams have dispersed spatially. We calculate the integrals of motion for 31 234 stars, to a distance of 4 kpc from the Sun, which have full and accurate 6D phase space positions in the Gaia DR2 catalogue. We the
Objectives: This study investigates specialist healthcare visits of older people with intellectual disability ID having affective and anxiety diagnoses in comparison with the general population, as well as across different levels of ID, behavioural impairment, and living in special housing in Sweden. Method: The study is a retrospective national-register-based study from 2002–2012 of people with I
The polymerase chain reaction (PCR) is a very powerful method to detect and identify pathogens. The high sensitivity of the method, however, comes with a cost; any of the millions of artificial DNA copies generated by PCR can serve as a template in a following experiment. If not identified as contaminations, these may result in erroneous conclusions on the occurrence of the pathogen, thereby infla
Two test series simulating the hazards associated with the accidental release of hydraulic fluid near a source of ignition have been carried out with six hydraulic fluids; mineral oil, organic ester, phosphate ester, water in oil emulsion and two polyglycols in water solution. The flame length, temperature and radiation and the auto-ignition temperature were measured. The correlation between the t
Popular Abstract in Swedish I denna bok undersöks det begynnande 1800-talets svenska reform av kyrkosången. I fokus står J C F Hæffners koralbok 1820, med dess privat utgivna andra del 1821, som här för första gången ägnas en ingående idéhistorisk analys. Hæffners utgåva har kritiserats hårt för att ha tagit död på den s.k. folkliga koralsången — ”dödshugget mot vår nationella tonkonst” — och istäThis thesis analyses the Swedish chorale book in two parts edited by J.C.F. Hæffner in 1820-21 to the new hymnal by Wallin of 1819. This is done in relation to the ideas and practices of the time; earlier and up to present times this chorale style has been described as a “petrified” hymnody, with a rhythmic equalisation, slow tempo, melodic trivialization and harmonic uniformity. To understand th
Experiments have shown that the time is now ripe for a new generation of interactive learning tools for control. The tools are based on objects which admit direct graphical manipulation. During manipulations, objects are updated instantaneously, so that relations between objects are maintained all the time. The tools are natural complements to traditional education, and allow students to quickly g
The Galactic Archaeology with HERMES (GALAH) survey is a large-scale stellar spectroscopic survey of theMilkyWay, designed to deliver complementary chemical information to a large number of stars covered by the Gaia mission. We present the GALAH second public data release (GALAH DR2) containing 342 682 stars. For these stars, the GALAH collaboration provides stellar parameters and abundances for
To address global sustainability challenges, major investments are required in sustainable businesses that deliver triple bottom line results. Although interest in sustainable businesses is on the rise, these businesses are not yet widespread. Venture capital investment has a key role to play in the development of sustainable start-ups. The research area of 'sustainable' venture capital is still e
In year 2017 the WWN+ project "Silent Timber Build" is finishing. The project focused on studying timber structures with regard to their sound insulation characteristics, both airborne sound insulation and impact sound insulation. The aim is to develop calculation models (and / or to provide input to standardized models) for various timber structures available in Europe but also to facilitate futu

Tropical forest soils are a significant source for N2O and NO. Current estimates of N2O and NO emissions areuncertain due to the limited number of fieldmeasurements and model input data. Furthermore, considerable spatialand temporal variability exists due to variation of soil properties, vegetation characteristics and meteorology.Weused a process-based model (ForestDNDC-tropica) to estimate N2O an
Computer control is entering all facets of life from home electronics to production of different products and material. Many of the computers are embedded and thus ``hidden'' for the user. In many situations it is not necessary to know anything about computer control or real-time systems to implement a simple controller. There are, however, many situations where the result will be much better when
