The aim of this research is to study three particle correlations in pseudo-rapidity for the $\Lambda^0$,$\Xi^0$, and $\Omega^-$ hyperons with a focus on their baryon and strangeness quantum numbers. The two primary questions asked are, into which particles are these quantum numbers typically conserved, and what are their correlations in momentum space. The research investigates these problems by e

Konsekvenserna av vad det blotta ögat inte når Epitelial äggstockscancer är den vanligaste dödsorsaken bland gynekologiska cancertyper, vilket beror av återkommande tumörer med resistens mot behandling. I cancerns slutstadier har jättecancerceller identifierats. Dessa formas till viss del av att två eller flera cancerceller smälter samman och kombinerar sitt yttre membran i bildandet en hybrid ce

Sperm whales (Physeter macrocephalus) communicate with one another using an intricate language made up of sequences of clicks. Recent studies have begun to dig deeper into the structure and content of these vocalisations in an effort to detect and extract significant patterns and features. Whether or not the results of such research will eventually allow us to translate sperm whale speech into som

Den 1 juli 2022 trädde en ändring av lagen (1988:254) om förbud beträffande knivar och andra farliga föremål, även kallad knivlagen, i kraft. Denna innebar bl.a. att kvalifikationsgrunder infördes för bedömningen av om ett brott ska rubriceras som grovt, och att straffskalan för grovt brott skärptes till fängelse i lägst sex månader och högst två år. Syftet med den här uppsatsen är att analyseraOn 1 July 2022, the Swedish Act (1988:254) on the Prohibition of Knives and Other Dangerous Objects (the Swedish Knife Act), which criminalizes possession of knives and other dangerous objects in public places, was amended. Through the amendment, four criteria were introduced to the statutory text, which are to be given particular consideration when assessing whether a violation of the law is to b

Sustainability reporting remains a well-established field of research, with many important contributions. Additionally, the public has a growing desire for firms to adopt responsible ESG practices, thus requiring more transparency and accountability. Without the acceptance from the public, the business might face negative consequences. The understanding of how sustainability reporting is disclosed

The aviation industry continues today to be one of the main sources of green house gas emission. In order to counteract this trend, certain solutions are being invested in with one of these being the use of electro-based sustainable aviation fuels. Its drop-in ability and potential for reduction in emissions present eSAF as one of the most attractive and viable alternatives to decarbonisation of t

A great amount of financial statements of Swedish companies are registered with the Swedish companies registration office, Bolagsverket, as paper copies. These copies are then scanned and made available to the public as image-PDFs, meaning the financial information contained in them is not digitised and therefore not easily processed in an automated manner. Being able to do so, is valuable however

Problem Statement: Company Pie is planning for a new centralised distribution centre, as part of a reorganisation of their distribution network. This entails consolidating volumes from several existing facilities, and another company named Company Rho, when setting up a distribution centre configuration. Company Pie wants a second set of eyes to create a configuration, including operations, and de

I have in this thesis conducted fieldwork at the Swedish newspaper Sydsvenskan's digital media department. I was curious to find out how or if the financial instability that is currently sweeping across the newspaper industry is embodied through praxis within a department that many are eager to blame the instability for – that is, a digital media department. I wanted to pinpoint and observe re

Populärvetenskaplig sammanfattning Naturbetesmarker samt ängs- och hagmarker fungerar som boplats och födokälla för vilda pollinerande insekter, men intensifiering av modernt jordbruk och markanvändning har gjort att dessa typer av gräsmarker minskar drastiskt. Vilka effekter detta får för pollinering i de kringliggande markerna genom ökad fragmentering, och därmed ökande isolering från dylika grAbstract Semi-natural grasslands, which act as nesting and foraging habitats for wild pollinating insects, have declined tremendously due to both agricultural intensification and land abandonment. The effects this has on plant pollination in the surrounding landscapes, through increasing fragmentation and isolation from natural habitats, is relatively well known for cultivated crops but much less

Populärvetenskaplig sammanfattning: Drick ett glas goda bakterier Man har länge vetat att det i distributionsnät av dricksvatten växer bakterier i form av biofilm. Denna biofilm kan stabilisera vattenkvaliteten men kan också vara orsaken till vissa hälsoproblem eftersom den kan innehålla patogener, virus och protozoer. Djupare förståelse om hur biofilmer är uppbyggda och fungerar är också av intAbstract In water distribution systems newly exposed areas, such as newly laid pipes are subjugated to biofilm growth. This growth have been associated with public health problems and has lead to the water treatment facilities seen today. In an attempt to better understand what mechanisms are important when it comes to drinking water, research involving simulated distribution systems is being use

En stor del av Östafrikas landsbygdsbefolkning är självförsörjande jordbrukare som på grund av begränsade markytor och förändrade klimatförhållanden riskerar misslyckade skördar och ökad fattigdom. I takt med att befolkningen växer blir miljöproblem som avskogning, erosion och urlakade jordar, samt övergödning av vattendrag och sjöar alltmer påtagliga. Syftet med den här studien är att kartläggaSub-Saharan Africa suffers from land degradation, depletion of natural resources and rural poverty. In the Lake Victoria Basin, where large parts of the population are small scale farmers, people are facing such issues coupled with altered climatic conditions. The focus area of this study is the Mara region in northern Tanzania, situated on the eastern lakeshore. Mara has experienced a doubling of

Aliens i sjön Erken! Kontrolleras av glupska kannibaler? Det finns aliens i sjön Erken. Nej inte utomjordingar, utan en mussla som inte hör hemma där egentligen. På engelska kallas det en ”alien species” när arten har flyttats till ett ställe där den inte finns naturligt. Denna mussla har ett randigt mönster på skalet och kallas därför zebramussla. Eftersom den är så bra på att sprida sig kallas The aim of this study was to collect new knowledge about the importance of signal crayfish predation on zebra mussels in Lake Erken. Possibly with implications on biological control of the invasive species in Swedish lakes. I performed a field experiment with enclosures (including signal crayfish) and exclosures (without signal crayfish) during 11 summer weeks in Lake Erken. My results showed that

Den här uppsatsen kretsar kring svenska kommuners drift av gym, en företeelse som gör att kommunen agerar som aktör på den öppna marknaden. I takt med att allt mer av den offentliga och den privata sektorn har smält samman så har också antalet konkurrenskonflikter som detta kan föranleda ökat. Det privata näringslivet har under årtionden påtalat att de upplever det som ett problem och att den offeThis essay revolves around Swedish municipalities' operation of gyms, a phenomenon that makes the municipalities act as players on the open market. As more and more of the public and private sectors have merged the number of competitive conflicts that this has caused has also increased. The private sector has, for decades, complained that it feels it is an issue and that the public sector is n

T cell-exosomer som biomarkör vid Typ 1-Diabetes Typ 1-diabetes (T1D) är en autoimmun sjukdom, där kroppens T-celler (immunceller) angriper bukspottskörtelns insulinproducerande betaceller. Insulin är ett viktigt hormon, som reglerar blodsockerhalten i kroppen. Destruktion av betacellerna leder till nedsatt insulinproduktion och därmed höga blodsockerhalter, som följaktligen leder till andra kompType 1 diabetes, also known as juvenile diabetes or insulin-dependent diabetes, is a growing and serious health problem worldwide with highest incidence in developed countries and among children. It is a T cell-mediated autoimmune disease, characterized by destruction of β-cells of the pancreatic islets of Langerhans, resulting in deficient insulin secretion and hyperglycemia. The cause of the dis

Naturens resurser är inte oändliga och förnyas inte i samma hastighet som vi förbrukar dem. Genom att återvinna, minskar inte bara avfallsmängden som deponeras, utan råmaterial behöver inte förbrukas i samma utsträckning. I Sverige har vi idag en väl utbyggd återvinning där ansvaret för omhändertagande och insamling av avfall från hushåll ligger hos kommunerna, med undantag för de produkter som omEmeli Magnusson (2015) MVEK03 Natural resources are not infinite and are not renewed in the same rate as we consume them. Recycling outweighs a part of the consumption of resources, and the environmental impacts, resulting from the manufacture of new products. Recycling is an important part of getting a sustainable society, it brings us an opportunity to recycle material resources. This study exa

Crowdfunding has witnessed growing interest within academia in recent years, despite the underlying motivations for entrepreneur engagement in crowdfunding activities receiving little attention. The purpose of this study is to explore the motives that influence entrepreneurs when using crowdfunding and how these motives are related to each other. This will then provide a deeper understanding of ho

Cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) images are used to investigate the heart for medical and research purposes. By injecting a contrast substance into the patient, myocardial infarctions (heart attacks) can be visualized in CMR image sets consisting of a number of image slices at different levels of the heart. Analysis of these images can detect an infarction, delineate it and estimate its size. This
