In the Swedish Instrument of Government from 1809, there was a balance of power between the King and the Parliament. From these two basic spheres of power (con-stituent powers), power was further divided into five parts (constituted powers). Through the introduction of parliamentarianism in the early 20th century, a redistri-bution of power took place in practice, but on paper the balance of power
This thesis is focused on the detail process of formation of mesoporous silica materials.Mesoporous silica materials are one type of porous materials with a pore size between 2 and 5 nm (1 nm=0.000 000 001 m). The pore walls consist of silicon dioxide – silica (sand also consists of silica). The mesoporous silica materials are formed by amphiphilic molecules, a kind of molecule with one part that We investigate the formation mechanism responsible for two specific systems of mesoporous silicas formed with the so-called co-structure directing agent (CSDA) route. The synthesis relies on the interactions between silica source (tetraethylorthosilicate, TEOS), surfactants and CSDA. The structures of the mesoporous silica materials were investigated mainly by small angle X-ray diffraction (SAXD),
There is an increased interest not only in sustainability but also in becoming socially responsible due to greater awareness as well as pressure from stakeholders. Contradictive results are found on whether Socially Responsible Investments (SRIs) in the area of funds are outperforming conventional funds. Further, in the area of Mergers and Acquisitions (M&As), there is plenty of research ident
Since IFRS is a principle-based system of norms, there is room for interpretation. This can lead to smoothing of the company’s net profit, based on the management's subjective choice. A correlation can exist, that the scope for interpretation may lead to the manipulation of the net profit. The purpose of this study is to investigate whether listed Swedish firms use earnings management in the f
Artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) is expected to have a significant effect in the use of algorithmic trading (AT). AT is already dominating the type of trading in financial markets, and ML can increase the capacity of electronic trading. The rationale of this study is to examine the current adoption of AI and ML in AT, and why trading firms in the financial industry should use
Despite a common colonial past under the British empire, Singapore and Malaysia have experienced vastly different development paths since independence. While Singapore has one of the highest per capita incomes in the world today, Malaysia’s economy remains a mere third of that of Singapore’s. Despite the economic disparity between the two countries, the newly available data on well-being, as prese

Popular Abstract in English News about global warming, discussions about alternative fuels such as natural-gas and biogas, and commercials about gas engines sound familiar to the most people living in modern societies. Why global warming is important? What is the role of natural-gas engines in this subject? Are natural-gas engines efficient? Do they perform as well as diesel engines? If not, why? Most heavy-duty engines are diesel operated. Severe emission regulations, high fuel prices, high technology costs (e.g. catalysts, fuel injection systems) and unsustainably in supplying fuel are enough reasons to convenience engine developers to explore alternative technologies or fuels. Using natural gas/biogas can be a very good alternative due to the attractive fuel properties regarding emissio
Popular Abstract in English At the beginning of 20th century, scientists started to realize that atoms exhibited the discrete behaviour, e.g. the energies of bond electrons were not continuously distributed, but had discrete values. Light is also transmitted as discrete packages (called photons). These phenomena can not be explained by classical physics, which has been accepted as the law of descrThe work presented in this thesis was concerned with investigating the relevant spectroscopic properties of Ce ions randomly doped in an Y2SiO5 crystal at low temperatures (around 4 K), in order to develop a technique and an experimental set-up to detect the fluorescence photons emitted by a single Ce ion. The aim of the work was to determine whether a single Ce ion (referred to as the readout ion
This thesis investigates the trends of subnational economic development in Vietnam from 2018 to 2023 to test for economic convergence on a regional scale in addition to analysing the extent to which local institutions lead to differing economic outcomes. The findings of this paper suggests that there existed a wide gap in the economic performance of Vietnamese provinces at the start of the period
The protons and neutrons that make up the atoms in our Universe are part of a larger group of particles called hadrons. Hadrons have an inner structure consisting of the elementary particles called quarks. The interaction of the quarks is described by the quantum field theory quantum chromodynamics. Quantum chromodynamics predicts a confinement of the quarks within the hadrons, but at large temper
The London congestion charging scheme has been in place since the 17th of February 2003 and there is little doubt that, so far, the objectives set out prior to the introduction of the charge have been achieved. The purpose of this paper is to examine the effect the congestion charge have had on the air quality in central London. This was done by studying daily data on a number of pollutants that c
