We have used the FERMI free-electron laser to perform time-resolved photoelectron imaging experiments on a complex group of resonances near 15.38 eV in the absorption spectrum of molecular nitrogen, N2, under jet-cooled conditions. The new data complement and extend the earlier work of Fushitani et al. [Opt. Express 27, 19702–19711 (2019)], who recorded time-resolved photoelectron spectra for this

Introduction: Initiating low molecular weight heparin (LMWH) thromboprophylaxis too early in patients with traumatic braininjury increases the risk of intracranial bleeding. Therefore, it is important to monitor LMWH and asses when it is safe to initiate.The aim of this research was to study alternative monitoring methods for LMWH than the standard method anti-factor Xa (antiFXa), and to investiga

Precarious Life is a performance lecture about terror and autoimmune diseases. Terror and autoimmune diseases have something in common: neither can be defeated, because the threat comes from within. The performance has a personal and political aim. The personal aim consists in understanding why the body suddenly attacks itself. The political consists in examining the autoimmunity of terror and in

The Chinese population is rapidly aging, which has brought challenges for the elderly support system. Until very recently, only urban employees were eligible to receive a pension, while the rural elderly were forced to rely on income from their own labor and support from their family. In these circumstances, it is unsurprising that the rural elderly were most likely to fall into poverty. The recen

Abstract: The aim of this chapter was to analyze associations between measures of cortisol in salivaand mental health and to see if divergent results were functions of the methods used. Measures ofmental health outcome included Major Depressive Disorder (MDD), symptoms of depression, andsymptoms of anxiety, Burnout (BO), and Vital Exhaustion (VE). Only studies on otherwise healthyindividuals were

Ett av mina första uppdrag som nybliven professor i Medicinsk Strålningsfysik vid Lunds Universitet var att i slutet av april 1981 åka till München för att delta i en Europeisk (EU) workshop om möjligheterna att reducera patient bestrålning vid röntgendiagnostik. Av deltagarna från Storbritannien framkom att man på flera håll i Storbritannien utvecklade metoder för medicinsk avbildning utan röntge

While “Merkavah mysticism” as a religious movement is a phenomenon of Late Ancient and Medieval Judaism, scholars have debated whether the origins of this movement are traceable to traditions of the divine Merkavah (chariot-throne) preserved in some early Jewish apocalyptic literature from the Second Temple period. Furthermore, scholars have emphasized that these early Merkavah traditions ref

This research investigates the contribution of local currencies to sustainability. I look at a specific local currency scheme (the Bristol Pound, in Bristol, United Kingdom) through a transitions perspective, employing a Transitions Evaluation Framework, Multi-Level and Multi-Phase Perspectives to conduct my analysis. I use a qualitative triangulation approach to collect data, namely semi-structur

Within society, sexual abuse is a subject of taboo and has a number of stigmas attached to it which can make it difficult for children to talk about it let alone make a disclosure as typically can be a relative or someone that the child trusts. The aim of this study was to gain a better understanding of how sexual abuse against children is depicted in children’s literature. Within our study we hav

Problemställning: Hur hållbart bygger LKF? Syfte: Att bidra till framtagandet av en ny, mer hållbar byggstandard. Metod: Litteraturstudie, intervjuer samt jämförelse mellan miljöcertifieringar och LKF:s byggstandard genom ett ”standardprojekt”. Slutsatser: Hållbart byggande har för denna rapport definierats som en balans mellan sociala-, ekonomiska-, ekologiska- och tekniska aspekter kopplat ti

EU-domstolen har i World Duty Free Group [2016] klarlagt att den i sin rättspraxis har utvecklat två analysmetoder för att fastställa huruvida en nationell skatteåtgärd utgör en stödordning eller inte: trestegstestet och Gibraltar-metoden. Trestegstestet är tillämpligt när det ska fastställas huruvida en skatteåtgärd som avviker från ett allmänt system är selektiv. Gibraltar-metoden är däremot tilIn World Duty Free Group [2016], the CJEU clarified that it has developed two methods in its case law for the purpose of assessing selectivity in tax measures: the three-step approach and the Gibraltar method. The three-step approach may be used when the tax measure in question takes the form of a tax advantage that derogates from an ordinary tax system. In turn, the Gibraltar method may be used w

Sedan 1950-talet har antalet bilar per person i Sverige ökat. Med en negativ påverkan på miljön såväl som på människors hälsa, representerar privat ägande av fordon en av de största utmaningarna i transportplanering. Att flytta resenärer från privata fordon till kollektivtrafik har visat sig fördelaktigt beträffande att minska koldioxidutsläppen, dock kräver denna typ av mobilisering politisk styrIn Sweden the number of cars per person has increased since the mid-20th century. With negative impacts on both health and the environment, private ownership of vehicles represents one of the major challenges in urban transport. To move travelers from privately owned vehicles to public transport has shown to be beneficial in reducing carbon emissions. However, in order to create policies that attr

Utlämningsförbudet för politiska brott har utgjort en del i den svenska utlämningsrätten ända sedan Sveriges första utlämningslag instiftades under tidigt 1900-tal. Några konkreta skäl till varför regeln en gång infördes i svensk rätt angavs aldrig. På ett internationellt plan har däremot tre övergripande skäl kartlagts, vilka ansetts motivera regeln. Skälen utgörs av: (1) att den eftersökte indivThe political offence exception has been a part of the Swedish extradition law since the first extradition law entered into force in the early 20th century. No concrete reasons were given why the rule was once introduced in Swedish law. At the international level, three general reasons have been given to justify the exception: (1) that the requested individual should not be an object for persecuti

Kering is a multi-player in the luxury industry, owning high-end brands such as Gucci, Saint Laurent, Alexander McQueen, among others. A range of product lines of these brands use exotic skins as raw materials. Some argue that the use of such materials is too cruel and that the animal welfare cannot be guaranteed. On the other hand, exotic skins are presented as more sustainable than other types o

Denna uppsats avser att utreda hur anställningsskyddet för en professionell tränare ser ut. Syftet är att tydliggöra under vilka förutsättningar som en idrottsförening kan avsluta en tränares anställning. Särskilt fokus riktas mot frågan om det utifrån den nuvarande arbetsrättsliga lagstiftningen går att rättfärdiga en uppsägning av en tränare som sker med hänvisning till att denne inte presterat This thesis is aimed at describing the employment protection of sports coaches. The purpose is to clarify the conditions under which a sports association can terminate a coach's employment. Focus will be placed on the question of whether it, on the basis of the current labour law legislation in Sweden, is possible to justify the dismissal of a coach on the grounds that he or she has not achiev
