The synthesis and characterization of phthalocyaninato-ruthenium (PcRu) complexes with potential functional axial ligands are described. The solubility of these PcRu complexes was much improved compared to their parent phthalocyanines without Ru, enabling purification by normal flash column chromatography and also NMR measurements in common solvents (e. g. DMSO-d(6) and CDCl3). Adsorption of these

Three issues characterise the background to the MECCA study: A) Throughout Europe, most patients with severe forms of psychotic disorders are cared for in the community. The challenge now is to make processes in community mental health care more effective. B) There are widespread calls to implement regular outcome measurement in routine settings. This, however, is more likely to happen, if it prov

Popular Abstract in Swedish Datorgenererade bilder är en viktig del av underhållningsindustrin, som bland annat innefattar spel- och filmindustrin. För att kunna skapa avancerade specialeffekter i filmer samt stora och detaljerade spelvärldar krävs datorprogram som utnyttjar beräkningskraften i dagens datorer på ett effektivt sätt. Bättre och snabbare datorprogram leder ofta till nya användaruppleComputer generated imagery is vital to the entertainment industry in the production of games and films, for example. It is also increasingly important for visualization in design, architecture, engineering, and medicine, to name a few. Improvements to rendering techniques come from a combination of improved algorithms and more powerful hardware. Typically, hardware developments introduce new chall

Popular Abstract in Swedish En indikator-jon för en kvantdator Ända sedan transistorn uppfanns 1948 har datorer blivit allt mer kraftfulla. Trots den enorma utveckling som skett finns det fortfarande problem som är för svåra för en dator att lösa. Ett exempel är simulering av stora molekyler, t.ex. proteiner, vilket skulle vara användbart inom medicin och biologi, bland annat för att förutsäga hRare-earth ions doped into a transparent crystal can have optically excited states with coherence times of milliseconds and hyperfine levels with coherence times of hours when cooled down to liquid helium temperatures. This makes them attractive for developing quantum computing hardware. A quantum transistor can be implemented in a rare-earth-ion-doped crystal by utilizing a dipole blockade effe

Since Abney (1987), generative syntax has invested much interest in the structure of the Noun Phrase, producing numerous theoretical as well as descriptive studies. Within the field of Scandinavian Noun Phrase studies, Delsing (1993) was a groundbreaking work that has since been followed up by several important studies, including Vangsnes et al. (2003) and Julien (2005). This field of inquiry is e

Rapporten behandlar vidhäftning mellan in-situ-gjutna betongplattor, vilka används vid etappvis schaktning, och lerbotten i schakt. Huvudsyftet är att utreda vilken vidhäftning som verkar mellan materialen då betongen blir utsatt för skjuvning på grund utav tryck från sponten. Samt om brott går i kontaktytan mellan materialen eller i något av de två materialen samt hur detta sammanfaller med dagen

Syftet med denna uppsats är att undersöka och analysera de argument som presenterades i frågan om kvinnlig rösträtt i Sverige under slutet på 1800-talet och fram till dess att den blev verklighet 1919. Detta görs med hjälp av en rättshistorisk metod. För att uppfylla detta syfte har argumenten i de offentliga trycken från den aktuella tiden granskats. Så har även argumenten i den kvinnliga rösträtThe purpose of this thesis is to examine and analyse the arguments presented during the process of woman suffrage in Sweden in the late 19th century up until 1919 when women received the right to vote. The thesis has been written using a legal historical perspective. To achieve the purpose, the arguments in the contemporary legislative proposals has been examined as well as the arguments presented

Silvernanopartiklars toxicitet i miljön – har storleken betydelse? Antibakteriella silvernanopartiklar (AgNP) används i en rad olika konsumentprodukter, men toxicitet och miljöeffekter är inte särskilt välförstådda. Frisättning av silverjoner (Ag+) visade sig vara viktigt för toxiska effecter på bakterier. Dock verkar faktorer i det omgiv-ande mediet, t.ex. vatten, också ha stor effekt på beteenBy the investigation of pollution induced community tolerance (PICT), this study aimed at elucidating whether or not ionic silver (Ag+) and silver nanoparticles (AgNP) differ in toxic mode of action. Specifically, bacterial communities in natural water underwent a 6, 7 or 14 day selection for tolerance to Ag+ or citrate-coated 20 nm AgNPs. Bacterial protein synthesis was measured by [3H]-leucine i

This thesis studies protection as integral to security. Protection has been used to keep women from the ‘public sphere’ and abused by peacekeepers and patriarchs alike, suggesting that being protected is not synonymous with being safe but can cause violence and exclusion. From that contradiction, I ask how the concepts of protection and security are produced, and to what effects for (gender) equal

In the light of (super) wicked problems, as climate change is, a deep transformation of energy and transport systems is needed. Among other technological innovations, liquid biofuels were adopted also in Romania as an innovation that could contribute to the transition towards a more sustainable transport. However, the biofuels sector is not well-developed in Romania, in spite of considerable poten

In this thesis, the compatibility between the standards developed in ISO/TC 223 – Societal Security and the standards developed in ISO/TC 262 – Risk Management, is examined. A joint qualitative method of analysis, consisting of document analysis and semi-structured interviews, is applied. With the help of an operational definition of compatibility, the study results in a coefficient of compatibili
