This thesis describes the work done on two open access microcavities that aims at detecting single rare-earth ions for quantum information applications. The initial microcavity faced mechanical instability due to its geometry, which limited robust design possibilities due to the 25 mm diameter space of the helium bath cryostat. A Purcell enhancement of 2.2 was realized for nanoparticles at 2.1 K,

Grönling, öring och signalkräfta är tre vanligt förekommande arter i rinnande vatten i Skåne. Öringens biologi och ekologi är väl undersökta och den är dessutom en populär sportfisk. Signalkräftan inplanterades i slutet på 1960-talet för att ersätta den inhemska flodkräftan och är även den ekonomiskt viktig, samt Stream ecosystems are dynamic and they have an inherent environmental variability. Organisms that live in streams are adapted to the continuously changing environment and the presence or absence of species are determined by their environmental requirements, while abundance is most often affected by interactions, such as competition and predation, with other species that are found in the same habit
In the Church of Sweden every person who is baptized is welcome to join in the Eucharist. However, in recent years three motions have been submitted to the General Synod of the Church of Sweden suggesting that the Eucharist be opened up to the unbaptized as well.

However, once ''technical character'' can be established in a software invention, and it fulfills all the requirements for patentability - being an invention, which is novel, has inventive step and is industrially applicable - software is very much patentable. The technical character requiremen

In hybrid zones genetically differentiated populations meet and interbreed. As they result from ongoing divergence and potential speciation, such zones provide opportunities to study how different factors affect this process. The hybrid zone between the all black carrion crow (Corvus corone corone) and the grey and black hooded crow (Corvus c. cornix) stretches c. 2400 km throughout Europe. I have

Popular Abstract in Swedish När vi tänker på skönlitteraturen får den gärna en drömmande klang som för tankarna till främmande platser långt borta från vardagen. Samtidigt kan skönlitteraturen måla upp slående bilder av världen och övertygande sätta in politiska och kulturella frågor i ett större meningsfullt sammanhang. Ingenstans blir detta tydligare än i Brands skönlitteratur.

Popular Abstract in English For several decades the electronic industry has developed towards smaller and smaller electronic components. The idea behind this development is quite simple: Small components have faster response times, which enables faster devices. Also, smaller components make it possible to decrease the size of the devices. A common example is today's mobile phones, that actually arThis dissertation deals with the effects of coherence and correlations on transport through nanostructures. Simulations are mainly performed using the second order von Neumann approach, a method capable of dealing with these effects in the presence of higher order tunneling. We see that such effects can result in various kinds of current suppression as well as efficient thermoelectric devices. Fu
En oannonserad inspektion i konkurrensrättsliga sammanhang innebär att kommissionen eller bemyndigad konkurrensmyndighet besöker ett företag innan öppning för att gå igenom handlingar av olika slag, i syfte att påträffa bevis som styrker överträdelser av konkurrensrättsliga regler.

Digitaliseringen har i stor utsträckning revolutionerat sättet som företagen gör affärer på. Det finns inte längre samma behov av fysiska platser för affärsverksamheter eftersom teknologin har skapat virtuella platser där företag kan sälja både varor och tjänster utan att överhuvudtaget sätta en fot i jurisdiktionen. Emellertid har reglerna om fast driftställe alltsedan 1920-talet präglats av att The digitalisation has largely revolutionized the way companies do business.

However, the rules on permanent establishment have, ever since the 1920’s, been characterized b
