Frånvaron av ett omedelbart kostnadsansvar i förvaltningsprocessen innebär att enskilda i dagsläget är hänvisade till ett separat skadeståndsförfarande för att få sina rättegångskostnader i förvaltningsmål ersatta. Förvaltningsprocess-lagens [1971:291] (FPL) avsaknad av direkta ersättningsbestämmelser likt de som gäller i civila tvistemål har en rad förklaringar till sig. Förstone handlar det om hThe absence of an immediate cost liability in administrative proceedings means that individuals are currently referred to a separate tort proceeding to be compensated for their litigation costs in administrative cases. The lack of direct compensation provisions in the Administrative Court Procedure Act [1971:291] (FPL) has several explanations. Firstly, it concerns how the com-mon foundations of t

Strong force dynamics in the non-perturbative regime remains a poorly understood aspect of quantum chromodynamics. In collisions of heavy ions, the near-side ridge and enhanced elliptic flow are widely regarded as signatures of the collective motion of deconfined partons in a thermalized medium. On the other hand, no corresponding explanation has been found for the appearance of these signatures i

Denna avhandling föreställer sig en ny typ av typologi i staden, en som är sådd och odlad av och för de äldre och de unga. Ett mötesrum som främjar generationsöverskridande relationer och samarbete, samtidigt som det minskar ensamhet och främjar stimulerande miljöer för social utveckling. Genom att omvandla en oanvänd parkering i centrala Stockholm till ett gemensamt utrymme som är delvis trädgård

The harbour porpoise (Phocoena phocoena) is affected by anthropogenic activities in Swedish waters, and the individuals found in the Öresund belong to the Belt Sea population, which is classified as ´vulnerable´. Boat traffic is known to have a negative impact on porpoises. Behavioural responses to such disturbances are context-dependent, and locally specific knowledge is needed for effective mana

As many arthropods, telecoprid dung beetles are deeply affected by anthropogenic pressures, including the extensive use of pesticides. Ivermectin, the main endectocide employed to treat livestock nowadays, drives population and species loss, and causes locomotion and sensory disorders in dung beetles. Imidacloprid, the major insecticide used to combat crop pests, is highly toxic towards pollinator

Bumblebees are essential pollinators, sustaining ecosystem balance and aiding crop pollination. A comprehensive understanding of their foraging ecology is therefore crucial. We studied the influence of life-history traits of individual Bombus terrestris on wing wear and its foraging patterns. Wing wear is clearly a widespread phenomenon observed in all flying insects. Wing integrity has consequenc

In a world of rapid biodiversity loss, raptors are vulnerable due to their longevity and low reproductive rates. The red kite (Milvus milvus) is one of few migratory raptors breeding exclusively in Europe. It has previously experienced steep population declines caused mainly by persecution but mostly recovered, no longer classified as globally endangered. However, negative population trends persis

The barley erectoides (ert) mutants are characterized by an erect growth habit, a short and compact spike and often a short culm length. The ert-c mutant group consists of 40 allelic mutants and is thus one of the largest groups. The aim of this study was to identify the ert-c gene. The genomes of eight ert-c mutants have been sequenced and a set of candidate genes were identified. In the present

Rosé wine popularity is mostly due to its pink colour which results from grape pigments. Varying from a pale salmon to a deeper pink colour, its stability and intensity are not as good as the those of red wines, it’s therefore crucial to improve them. Yeasts, responsible for alcoholic fermentation, have been shown to influence wine colour, in particular when nonSaccharomyces (NS) yeasts are inocul

Sialic acids are a group of 9-carbon carbohydrates abundant in humans, where they can be found on the surface of all cell types. They play an important role in biological signaling and therefore numerous physiological and pathophysiological processes. Some pathogenic bacteria are able to use the sialic acid of its host, which they uptake through transporters in their membrane, as an energy source

Primary myelofibrosis (PMF) is the most severe form of myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs), for which allogeneic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) is the only curative option. However, only a small portion of patients are eligible for it, and even if they are, there is no guarantee of success due to the many comorbidities associated with the disease (older age, splenomegaly, anemia), risk of g

This thesis explores whether throat cancer can be detected from voice recordings using statistical methods in the context of mobile health applications. It focuses on two main questions: Can throat cancer be detected from voice recordings? and Which data features and models perform best in this task? To investigate these questions, acoustic features were extracted from patient recordings and analy

Sialic acids or glyconic structures containing a sialic acid fragment are among the most abundant host surface molecules, typically found to be terminating branches of N-glycans, O-glycans, and glycosphingolipids (gangliosides). They play a crucial role in bacterial pathogenesis, due to the ability of bacteria to engage in molecular mimicry - the decoration of their surface with sialic acids - to

This thesis aims to study the political motivation of Nordic parliamentarians to join the Nordic Council, one of the dozen international parliamentary institutions that emerged in Western Europe during the Cold War. With most of them, including the Nordic Council, being without legislative powers, this thesis aims to answer the puzzle of what motivates a politician to join an organisation that lac

Research on monoclonal antibody (mAb) has considerably gained importance during the last decades, not only for cancer therapy but also for its importance in variety of fields. Unfortunately, the development phase can take several years before obtaining FDA approval, hence alternative approaches that could potentially shorten this timeline are critically needed. For instance, flow-injection analysi

I samband med att ett intrångsmål prövas är det inte ovanligt att svaranden invänder att den immaterialrätt som intrånget avser är ogiltig. Ett ogiltighetsförsvar kan vara ett effektivt sätt för den påstådda intrångsgöraren att retroaktivt beröva käranden den rättighet som ligger till grund för intrångstalan och, om talan ogillas, undvika ansvar. När det gäller immaterialrättsliga tvister som pr

This study investigates the potential of personal cooling solutions to mitigate heat stress in outdoor sporting environments. As global temperatures continue to rise, heat stress has become an increasing concern, particularly in urban environments where outdoor sport can cause significant thermal discomfort. A mixed methods approach was used, including online research, an experimental cooling stud

Effective Integrated Business Planning (IBP) is essential for aligning strategic goals and resources across an organization, especially in today's volatile and complex market environment. This master's thesis evaluates the implementation of Anaplan, an Advanced Planning System (APS), within the IBP framework of Oatly, exploring both benefits gained and encountered challenges. By employing

In this thesis the neurological mechanisms responsible for navigation in the sweat bee, the bumblebee and the fruit fly are explored. The central complex (CX) in the insect brain is in focus. The CX is critical in deciding the insect’s head direction and in generating goaloriented movements. In this study a comparison is made on how these insects navigate in the absence of visual input.
