The reaction between the SO5– radical and MnII has been proposed to be the most important process for regeneration of MnIII in the MnIII/II-catalysed autoxidation of SIV in acidic aqueous solution. In the present study, the second-order rate constant for this reaction has been determined at pH 3. 0 and 10 mmol dm–3 ionic strength by use of pulse radiolysis. The study was performed in the presence

The paper focuses on three key factors in WTI crude oil futures market: Convenience yield, inventory level and price volatility. The main purpose of the paper is to investigate the relation between those three key factors and analyze how those key factors will affect the market trading behaviors. Market trading behaviors could be measured from various aspects though, our paper will use open intere

The aim of this paper is to analyze Peter Linde’s sculpture the Statue of Zlatan as a work of art in a public space and what kind of meaning is produced through its different kinds of expressions. Based on theories concerning public art, ancient Greek and Roman sculptural traditions and iconoclasm, this paper explains how the sculpture is drawing on older sculptural traditions to narrate the obser

n this master’s thesis, one studies the liquidity of bonds. One considers bid-ask spread and develops four estimators of this liquidity measure based on trading data. One also computes Amihud’s measure. This approach helps to determine liquidity and its associ-ated costs without quotation. One finds out that the Roll, the FHT estimators and the Amihud measure take the lead. One looks at the changes

Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a common cause of morbidity and mortality in young individuals. Following TBI, the initial injury caused by the head impact is exacerbated by a complex cascade of secondary injury factors leading to increased tissue loss. TBI is an established risk factor for neurodegenerative disorders including Alzheimer disease (AD). In long-term survivors of TBI, increased aggre

This bachelor thesis deals with the collaboration between the Swedish Armed Forces and the Swedish Coast Guard. Ever since 1987, there has been a political ambition that the Armed Forces and Coast Guard should cooperate more closely in the field of maritime surveillance. These goals have not been achieved despite political decisions and the authorities jointly developed objectives. To identify the

FN:s säkerhetsråd har tillskrivits huvudansvaret för säkerställandet av världsfreden. För att uppfylla sitt ansvar har organet tillskrivits befogenhet att vidta militära åtgärder under kapitel VII Förenta Nationernas stadga (FN-stadgan). I sitt arbete begränsas säkerhetsrådet av de grundläggande principer som finns kodifierade i organisationens stadga. Dessa principer, mer konkret statssuveränitetThe Security Council has primary responsibility for the maintenance of international peace and security. In order to fulfil its responsibilities, the Security Council can authorize the use of force to maintain or restore international peace and security under Chapter VII of the Charter of the United Nations. When fulfilling its obligations, the Security Council is bound by the fundamental principl

Background: COMP (Cartilage oligomeric matrix protein) is a matrix protein, which is currently studied as a potential serum marker for cartilage processes in osteoarthritis (OA). The influence of physical exercise on serum COMP is not fully elucidated. The objective of the present study was to monitor serum levels of COMP during a randomised controlled trial of physical exercise vs. standardised r

Popular Abstract in Swedish Gastroesofageal refluxsjukdom innebär att maginnehåll backar (reflux) upp från magsäcken till matstrupen på ett onormalt sätt. Hos den friska individen finns flera mekanismer som skyddar matstrupen från reflux, vilket tydligt åskådliggörs av att man efter en måltid kan ställa sig upp och ner utan att föda backar upp i matstrupen. Vid refluxsjukdom föreligger defekter inEsophageal pH monitoring is important in the clinical management of patients with symptoms suggestive of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), and in research aiming to clarify the mechanisms involved in the development of GERD complications. Catheter-based techniques for pH recording are uncomfortable, not well tolerated by all patients and cannot reliably measure acid exposure in the most dist

Ongoing pollinator declines threaten the production of many entomophilous crops. Recent reports that yields of animal-pollinated crops in India are increasing less than pollinator-independent ones suggest the occurrence of pollen limitation. We experimentally evaluated if production of the common food crop chilli benefits from insect pollination and if crop production is constrained by lack of pol

This study investigates the publication and reception of the Latin American boom literature in Sweden from 1960 to 1990, focusing on Julio Cortázar, Carlos Fuentes, Gabriel García Márquez and Mario Vargas Llosa. It analyses the extent of Swedish translations of their works and the type and amount of attention they received in the Swedish press. Using a bibliometric approach for the translations, a

The world today stands at a cross roads when it comes to energy and electrical grids. A large part of the worlds population still lacks access to reliable working electricity 24 hours a day. Much of this is in remote and poor parts of the world. For much of the 20th century large centralized AC grids have been the norm to provide people with electricity. But for remote parts of the world including

Menstruation is a normal body function and a sign of reproductive health. Although it is a fundamental human right for girls and women to have the ability to properly manage their menstruation, it is a long-neglected issue in low-income countries. Pilot studies have provided optimism for the menstrual cup’s potential to improve the quality of life for Ugandan girls and women. Several actors are in

Popular Abstract in Swedish Vid förbränning av bränslen som innehåller kol, till exempel ved, olja och biobränslen, bildas sotpartiklar då det finns ett underskott av syre, så kallad ofullständig förbränning. Det är sotpartiklarna i brasan som ger dess gula sken. Dessa partiklar är små och består till största delen av oförbränt kol från bränslet. De små sotpartiklarna är hälsofarliga då de följer In the thesis work, two X-ray scattering techniques, small- and wide-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS and WAXS) were combined to study particle formation in-situ and non-intrusively in ethylene laboratory flames. Combining these two techniques enabled information concerning the size and concentration as well as the subnanometer structure of the nanoparticles within the 1–100 nm range there to be obtai

Plant species beta diversity is influenced by spatial heterogeneity in the environment. This heterogeneity can potentially be characterised with the help of remote sensing. We used WorldView-2 satellite data acquired over semi-natural grasslands on The Baltic island of Öland (Sweden) to examine whether dissimilarities in remote sensing response were related to fine-scale, between-plot dissimilarit
