In 2018 the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) reported sig- nals of a strongly coupled quark gluon plasma. This plasma is thought to be the reason for J/psi suppression when a fraction of the produced J/psi's dissolves due to the high-energy density of quarks and gluons. In this thesis, it will be investigated whether the suppression can be uniquely attributed to such a plasma. A model, b
This paper aims to determine the short and long term determinants of carbon intensity, energy intensity and scale effects for China, with data on the provincial level from 1995 to 2010. The results show that measures which are taken to limit carbon emission increase with carbon intensity on the long run. This means that more measures are taken, when more carbon is emitted per unit of output. The r
The usage of open source software is growing and with it, the number of vulnerabilities that attackers can utilize in order to perform malicious activities. In order to mitigate them, it is therefore important to develop effective means of remediating said vulnerabilities. This thesis compares two different solutions for automating vulnerability remediation in regards to time efficiency. Both shar
High EGR rates combined with turbocharging has been identified as a promising way to increase the maximum load and efficiency of heavy duty spark ignition engines. With stoichiometric conditions a three way catalyst can be used which means that regulated emissions can be kept at very low levels. Obtaining reliable spark ignition is difficult however with high pressure and dilution.

The essay is a comparative study between the Swedish regulation of spousal maintenance after divorce and the corresponding French regulation of prestation compensatoire which directly translates to provision of compensation. The regulations differ, particularly, because French law includes a ground for refusal related to the issue of fault in the divorce. To explain the difference, the significanc
The investing industry has historically been built around the sole purpose to bring superior financial returns to investors. Due to the rising concern towards global social and environmental issues, investments promoting sustainable development have grown popular. Centring sustainable investments debate is the strategy impact investing. The strategy originates from more traditional ethical investm
Previous research has shown that it is possible to decarbonise Sweden's road transport sector. This study develops a scenario based method and analyses the influence of external factors on energy security, focusing on passenger and freight transport. It does so by analysing the vulnerabilities and capabilities of five different climate mitigation strategies, investigating previous security scenariPrevious research has shown that it is possible to decarbonise Sweden's road transport sector.

När medier publicerar upphovsrättsligt skyddat material uppstår ett intressant och mångsidigt juridiskt problem. Upphovsinnehavaren har å ena sidan ensamrätt på hur alstret får utnyttjas. Media är å andra sidan ett kontrollorgan med uppgiften att informera allmänheten, särskilt i politiska sammanhang. Följaktligen har det införts upphovsrättsliga inskränkningar som i vissa fall ger medier rätt attMedia usage of copyright protected material creates an interesting and versatile legal problem. On the one hand, right holders have an exclusive right to the usage of their work. On the other hand, the importance of media freedom in a democratic society cannot be overstated. Journalists have a right and duty to inform on matters of public interests, especially political ones. Consequently, there a
Addiction to alcohol and drugs is a severe social problem all over the world and in all fields of social work. One of the most common treatments for addiction in Sweden is the Twelve Step Program (Socialstyrelsen 2021, s. 43). The twelve- step program is founded on a christian American perspective on addiction and a fundamental part of the treatment is to develop a spirituality to overcome an obse
It is frequently proposed that security and development are inextricably linked. Through history, development and security have constituted separate discourses, but during the 1990s matters of security and development was increasingly being discussed in concert, both in relation to discourse and policy, giving rise to what is commonly referred to as the security-development nexus. When the Millenn
Yttrium-90 is a pure β-emitting radionuclide with a high energy (Emax = 2.28 MeV) and a short half-life (T½ = 64.1 h). It has shown to be a promising isotope to use in radio-immunotherapy. In the absence of direct photon emission scintillation camera imaging can be obtained by acquiring events from bremsstrahlung photons created at or near the decay site of the radionuclide. It is, however, not ev
Structural Asymmetries – The View from Kutchi Gujarati and Marwari Patrick Grosz & Pritty Patel-Grosz (University of Tübingen) Background: Indo-Aryan languages exhibit a split in their case and/or agreement pattern that correlates with aspect. This is illustrated for Standard Gujarati in (1) (from Mistry 1976, DeLancey 1981:628-629). In the perfective, (1a), the subject combines with an ergative c
Popular Abstract in English The cell is the basic unit in all organisms. The molecular machinery in cells converts the energy in sunlight or food into a form of energy that the cell can use for physiological processes in the organism. In humans, this molecular machinery is located in the mitochondria; therefore they are often called the power plants of the cell. The molecular machines are actuallyNADH:quinone oxidoreductase, or complex I, is a large membrane bound enzyme in the respiratory chain of living organisms, that has evolved from the combination of smaller functional building blocks. The enzyme has a conserved core structure, comprising 14 protein subunits: Seven subunits protrude from the membrane and contain a flavin and eight iron-sulfur clusters. The remaining seven subunits in

This paper is a master's thesis by Erik Kivilo and Carl Olofsson at the Faculty of Engineering (LTH) at Lund University. The research and writing took place during the fall of 2014 under the supervision of Magnus Wiktorsson at the Division of Mathematical Statistics at Lund University, and Per Thastrom at EY, Copenhagen. The thesis concerns prudent valuation of fair-valued nancial instruments
International organisations (IOs) play increasingly important roles in world politics. As states face more complex challenges they have joined together in IOs to solve their common problems. Yet once an IO has been created it may take on a life of its own, and it becomes difficult for its state founders to control what it does.

The invention of computers revolutionized the way of doing science and in particular the field of mathematics. Computers were faster than any human mind in doing calculations and they did not make mistakes opening a wide range of possibilities that earlier where in practice uncomputable. Scientists observe the behavior of nature and find mathematical equations that model the different phenomena. IThe efficient simulation of thermal interaction between fluids and structures is crucial in the design of many industrial products, e.g. turbine blades or rocket nozzles. The main goal of this work is to present a high order time adaptive multirate parallel partitioned coupled method for the efficient numerical solution of two parabolic problems with strong jumps in the material coefficients that

The doctorate serves as the cornerstone for academic careers but has also gained importance in other societal sectors. Therefore, the gate-keeping function executed by examination committees is pivotal for the future of academia, as well as the development of the knowledge society. In a recently published study, we have delved into how the assessment practices of examination committees can be unde
