Materien som vi består av och kommer i kontakt med är uppbyggd av atomer med kärnor bestående av protoner och neutroner. De är exempel på hadroner, partiklar sammansatta av de fundamentala partiklarna kvarkar och gluoner. Dessa interagerar via den starka kraften, vilken likt gravitationen, elektromagnetismen och den svaga kraften är en fundamental kraft som styr utformningen av vårt universum. UndStrong force dynamics in the non-perturbative regime remains a poorly understood aspect of quantum chromodynamics. In collisions of heavy ions, the near-side ridge and enhanced elliptic flow are widely regarded as signatures of the collective motion of deconfined partons in a thermalized medium. On the other hand, no corresponding explanation has been found for the appearance of these signatures i

Denna avhandling föreställer sig en ny typ av typologi i staden, en som är sådd och odlad av och för de äldre och de unga. Ett mötesrum som främjar generationsöverskridande relationer och samarbete, samtidigt som det minskar ensamhet och främjar stimulerande miljöer för social utveckling.

The harbour porpoise (Phocoena phocoena) is affected by anthropogenic activities in Swedish waters, and the individuals found in the Öresund belong to the Belt Sea population, which is classified as ´vulnerable´. Boat traffic is known to have a negative impact on porpoises. Behavioural responses to such disturbances are context-dependent, and locally specific knowledge is needed for effective mana

This study aims to increase the understanding of the parents' experiences with children sitting at home. Furthermore, we want to contribute knowledge of how parents experience the relationship with professionals and how they experience the support offered. The research method we used was qualitative, with six semi-structured interviews. We chose parents because their children are of primary sc

This study examined how the number of explanatory variables included in a linear regression model affects model quality. The maximum number of variables was set to 20 and only models describing quantitative data were studied. The effect on model quality was studied through comparisons of models with different numbers of explanatory variables. The models – and the data sets the models were derived

This study aims to explore the complex positions of men as both victims and perpetrators within the context of honor-based violence and oppression. A qualitative method, utilizing self-biographies written by women, examines how the established norm of masculinity in honor culture portrays men as victims and perpetrators. The analysis focuses on two primary themes: “men as victims” and categories s

Gender norms seem to affect social workers' evaluation of children in childcare investigations in Sweden. This essay aimed to determine whether social workers at a Swedish social service center write differently about boys and girls in child care investigation documents based on the children's gender. The sample consisted of nine randomized investigation documents on four boys and five gir

Emotionsreglering (ER) innebär en förmåga att moderera varaktigheten och intensiteten av negativa känslomässiga upplevelser. Den aktuella studien utökar tidigare kunskap om ER i tonåren genom att anta en personcentrerad ansats för att undersöka profiler karaktäriserade av olika användning av följande ER-strategier: ruminering, socialt stöd, positiv omorientering, distraktion, kreativitet och aggreEmotion regulation (ER) refers to the ability to moderate duration and intensity of negative emotional experiences. The current study extends existing knowledge of ER in adolescence by adopting a person-centered approach to examine ER profiles characterized by different uses of the following ER strategies: rumination, social support, positive reorientation, distraction, creativity and aggression,

This thesis aims to examine the possibilities and obligations that an employer in the private sector has towards an employee who uses or has used drugs. Swedish labour law lacks regulation and case law concerning the measures that may be taken in the event of an employee’s drug use. Due to the absence of specific legislation, an analogical interpretation is made based on the provisions that regula

In an era of widespread disinformation, understanding how individuals navigate diverse media is critical.

The following study explores the economical and political determinants influencing the Swedish parliamentary election outcomes, through the lens of statistical modeling. With analysis of election data from 1970-2022, we employed both multiple regression and ridge regression to explore the following key variables: immigration, taxation, unemployment, inflation, poll performance, incumbency, margina

Power-to-X (PtX) is an emerging approach in decarbonizing industries hard to electrify, and is in many cases requiring stable hydrogen supply to maximize production. Hydrogen is produced via electrolysis and requires large amounts of electricity, which can be expensive, especially when considering highly fluctuating electricity prices. One solution in reducing electricity related costs is to integ
