This chapter presents information on hydrogen as an energy carrier, its properties, how to produce and store it, how to transport it, as well as its role in future energy systems. Opportunities and concerns about hydrogen are discussed. The basic principles and analysis of the key transport phenomena, bottlenecks, and applications of fuel cells are discussed. Most attention is paid to so-called PE
Background Direct cell reprogramming is characterized by the use of defined factors to rewire the transcriptional and epigenetic network of one cell-type into one of a different lineage. We have recently identified the transcription factors PU.1, IRF8, and BAFT3 (PIB) as sufficient to induce a type 1 conventional dendritic cell (cDC1) fate in both somatic and cancer cells.1,2 cDC1 is a rare dendri
What role has music played in global colonial projects? And how has musical colonisation been implemented on a large scale? To address these questions, I analyse the work of the evangelical missionary administrators Christian Ignatius Latrobe (1756–1836) and Hans-Peter Hallbeck (1784–1840). Latrobe was a London-based music historian, composer and editor who oversaw the missionary work of the Morav

The rise of e-commerce has a dramatic effect on physical stores and has also changed customer needs and behaviours with customers requiring both online and offline benefits in the shopping context. Offline-online channel integration, where online features are implemented in the physical store, has been introduced as a means for physical stores to react to the rise of e- commerce as it addresses th
I takt med att EU skapat sig en större roll för samhandeln mellan de anslutande medlemsländerna har den EU-rättsliga ordningen inverkat på vissa av de nationella rättsystemen. Ett relativt nytt system har frivilligt införts i den svenska rätten vilket behandlar bekämpningsmedel för konkurrensöverskridande samarbeten som karteller. Denna kartellbekämpande ordning, kallad eftergiftssystemet, har intAs the EU has become an important role for the reciprocal trade between the acceding Member States, the legal order of EU has had an effect on some of the national legal systems. A relatively new system has been voluntarily introduced into the Swedish law, with the purpose to combat competitive cross-collaborations like cartels. This cartel enforcement order, known as the Leniency system, has not
To defend a market, the acting firms need defence strategies. The eight Arctic States have all published their own national strategic document for the Arctic region. In the Strategies they describe how they will act in this Arctic market. The Arctic is an area undergoing a change. With the last decades of melting ices as a result of the increased global warming, the Arctic is a more available regi
Commonly, air pollution is treated by the European Union (EU) and its member states as a structural problem with technical, one-size-fit-all solutions. The EU has the ambition to follow the United Nation’s Sustainable Development Goals , Agenda 2030 , in which, for example, gender equality is highlighted. Yet, the legislation on toxic air does not explicitly mention how they aim to achieve social
Följande uppsats undersöker ifall principen om respekt för förvärvade rättigheter kan användas för att skydda etableringsfriheten för juridiska personer efter en avtalslöst Brexit. Sedan Storbritanniens folkomröstning har akademiker spekulerat över principens tillämpning för att skydda de rättigheter som härstammar från EU-rätten. Vissa hävdar att principen är tillämplig medan andra hävdar att en This thesis examines if the principle of respect for acquired rights can be used to protect the right of establishment for legal persons in the case of a No-Deal Brexit. Following the referendum, scholars and politicians have speculated over the Principle’s applicability on EU rights. Some claim that the Principle can be used to protect EU rights while others considers it unreasonable. This thesis
The primacy of hegemonic structures that shape political processes is relevant to purvey an extensive grasp of which central power dynamic is in effect.

Distinktionsprincipen är en av de mest fundamentala principerna i internationell humanitär rätt. Distinktionsprincipen grundades i St. Petersburgdeklarationen från 1868 och syftade till att minska det dödliga våldet mot civila i väpnade konflikter. Principen är nu kodifierad i artikel 48, 51(2) och 52(2) i det första tilläggsprotokollet till Genevekonventionen.

Previous studies have found that launch prices reflect the therapeutic gains of pharmaceuticals (for instance: Ekelund and Persson, 2003, on Sweden and Lu and Comanor, 1998, on the US). Furthermore, Howard et al (2015) found that purely pharmaceutical costs to “Medicare” at launch for new anticancer drugs increased annually, from 1995-2013, after controlling for health benefits and inflation. This
The energy use in the building sector is increasing rapidly which contributes to the rise in global greenhouse gas concentration. Energy-efficient buildings are considered as healthy buildings due to the improved air quality and comfortable indoor environment. One million residential buildings were built in Sweden during 1965 and 1975 to minimize the acute housing shortage. This initiative was tak

Historically, technological innovations have substituted human labor for decades and if the revolutionary technological developments continue, substitution may happen at an increasing pace. This increasing pace might place high demands on society to quickly adapt if high levels of technological unemployment are to be avoided. This paper examines how the computerization of society may affect the la
Value at Risk is a commonly used risk measure which calculates the smallest losses you risk to lose from having an asset, given a certain risk level and time period. Even though Value at Risk is applicable to all different types of assets, some studies suggest that this risk measure is not suitable for developing countries/emerging markets. This is because these countries’ assets generate very obs
Acknowledged from the existing literature regarding Daesh’s propaganda, the focus has mostly been on their propaganda on social media, such as Facebook and Twitter. However, I argue that a gap regarding Daesh’s propaganda is the lack of studies on Daesh’s online-magazine Dabiq and this thesis aim to fill this gap. I argue that Daesh’s way of arguing and framing their arguments are the key to under
