Using kilometric arrays of air Cherenkov telescopes at short wavelengths, intensity interferometry may increase the spatial resolution achieved in optical astronomy by an order of magnitude, enabling images of rapidly rotating hot stars with structures in their circumstellar disks and winds, or mapping out patterns of nonradial pulsations across stellar surfaces. Intensity interferometry (once pio
This thesis studies the very cornerstone of the international refugee law-the principle of non-refoulement. Since its introduction in the 1951 Convention, this principle has played a key role in the protection of refugees. Last 50 years have generated many questions and various interpretations of the scope of the Article 33 of the 1951 Convention on the Status of Refugees. States have tried to get
The purpose of the study is to investigate how the legal parenthood is regulated in the law now in force. I focus on the establishing of paternity and motherhood as well as on how parenthood is regulated in the situation of an artificial insemination. The focus of my investigation is on the best interest of the child in question. I have also put the subject of parenthood in a historical context to
I denna studie görs en livscykelanalys på en solfångare som Kristianstads Industri Service AB (KISAB) utvecklar. Även en mindre jämförelse görs med en solfångarstudie från Battisti, R (2005). KISAB:s solfångare har inga absorbatorflänsar utan den fungerar liknande en integrerad vattentank men med väldigt lite medium i den. KISAB:s solfångare består till 80 % av aluminium eftersom både absorbatorn This paper reports the result of a life-cycle analysis done on a solar thermal collector in Sweden. Kristianstad Industri Service AB (KISAB) is developing a solar thermal collector with a framework and absorbing plate made out of aluminium and no flow tubes. The aluminium is instead hollow and the whole area of the absorbing plate is therefore in contact with the coolant. The solar thermal collect
Denna uppsats behandlar anställnings- och diskrimineringsskyddet för arbetstagare med funktionsnedsättning i en uppsägningssituation. Skydd för arbetstagare med funktionsnedsättning finns i såväl arbetsrätten som i diskrimineringsrätten. I LAS (Lag (1982:80) om anställningsskydd) finns regler som begränsar en arbetsgivares möjlighet att säga upp sina arbetstagare. För att en uppsägning ska vara fThis thesis examines the employment protection and the protection against discrimination for a disabled person facing dismissal. Legal protection for disabled employees can be found both in labour law and in anti-discrimination law. The Employment Protection Act (SFS 1982:80) contains paragraphs that limit employer’s possibilities to dismiss his or her employees. A valid dismissal according to th
This thesis aims at comparing the differences between Chinese welfare system and Swedish welfare system in respects of maternity insurance, parental leave and childcare. The reason comparing welfare system in these specific aspects is because they have intense relations with the mothers’ and children’s benefits. They also influence the mothers’ will of pregnancy. Selecting these two countries as t
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

Ungdomar befinner sig i en utsatt position på den europeiska arbetsmarknaden. De saknar av naturliga skäl ofta den kompetens och arbetslivserfarenhet som efterfrågas av arbetsgivaren, samtidigt som ungdomars anställningar – när de väl erhåller en – tenderar att vara mer otrygga än vad som är fallet för andra kategorier av arbetstagare. Finanskrisen år 2008 har i flera avseenden inneburit en förvärYoung workers are facing challenging times in the European labour market. Naturally, young workers often lack the skills and work experience required by employers, but to make matters worse, when young workers do find employment, it tends to be less stable compared to the older generation of more established workers. The 2008 financial crisis, which negative impact is still being felt in Europe as
The purpose of this thesis project was to analyse and evaluate different systems for installation of piperun in ceilings. Main focus lay on how the systems influence the installer from an ergonomic point of view as well as productivity in terms of installation time. Several studies have been performed during this project using a variety of methods such as observations, interviews, questionnaires a
The project “ETT-Modular system for timber transport” investigates the possibilities of making logging shipments more effective, decrease their fuel consumption and road wear without compromising traffic safety. As part of this project a timber vehi-cle, the ETT-vehicle, that pulls four piles of timber, is 30 metres long, and has a gross combination weight of 90 tons, is tested on a distance betwe
Integration management in Finland and Tampere is broad task including multiple actors and departments. To manage integration, is to coordinate the cross organizational cooperation of multiple service structures that support migrants with different kinds of services. Although integration work has traditionally been provided through the Employment & growth services,the other relevant services fo
BackgroundA seven-year follow-up of heroin dependent patients treated in a buprenorphine-maintenance program combining contracted work/education and low tolerance for non-prescribed drug use. Gender-specific differences in outcome were analysed. MethodsA consecutively admitted cohort of 135 men and 35 women, with eight years of heroin abuse/dependence on average was admitted to enhanced buprenorph
Accumulated carbon uptake, apparent quantum yield (AQY) and light-saturated net CO2 assimilation (A(sat)) were used to assess the responses of photosynthesis to environmental conditions during spring for three consecutive years. Whole-tree chambers were used to expose 40-year-old field-grown Norway spruce trees in northern Sweden to an elevated atmospheric CO2 concentration, [CO2], of 700 mu mol C
BACKGROUND: Gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) antagonists have been reported to have beneficial effects on lower urinary tract symptoms in patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia. OBJECTIVE: Our aim was to investigate the effects of ganirelix, a GnRH receptor antagonist, on bladder function and detrusor overactivity (DO) in female rats. DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTS: Female Sprague-Dawl
Background: Treatment decisions can be difficult in men with low-risk prostate cancer (PCa). Objective: To evaluate the ability of a panel of four kallikrein markers in blood-total prostate-specific antigen (PSA), free PSA, intact PSA, and kallikrein-related peptidase 2-to distinguish between pathologically insignificant and aggressive disease on pathologic examination of radical prostatectomy (RP
Mechanical properties and rate of ATP breakdown (JATP) have been determined in the chemically skinned guinea-pig taenia coli at 22 degrees C. The influence of varied [Ca2+], [Mg ATP] and muscle length were investigated. The shortening response after a step decrease in force (isotonic quick release) was highly curvilinear in the first 100-200 ms. This effect was shown to be a time-dependent respons
Nutrient uptake by forest trees is dependent on ectomycorrhizal (EM) mycelia that grow out into the soil from the mycorrhizal root tips. We estimated the production of EM mycelia in root free samples of pure spruce and mixed spruce-oak stands in southern Sweden as mycelia grown into sand-filled mesh bags placed at three different soil depths (0-10, 10-20 and 20-30 cm). The mesh bags were collected
There is increasing evidence that short-chain fatty acids (SCFA) formed by colonic fermentation of indigestible carbohydrates have beneficial physiological effects. Butyric acid is the main energy substrate for the colonic mucosa and has been implicated as important in the prevention and treatment of diseases of the colonic mucosa, such as distal ulcerative colitis and cancer. Propionic acid, on t
The action of three matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs), 72- and 95-kDa gelatinases (MMP-2 and MMP-9) and PUMP (MMP-7), and a cysteine proteinase, cathepsin B, were investigated on aggrecan the major proteoglycan of cartilage. All the enzymes cleaved aggrecan although the activity of the 95-kDa gelatinase was very low. Specific cleavage sites were investigated following incubation with a purified agg
