Popular Abstract in Swedish Aerosolpartiklar i atmosfären har på senare år fått allt större betydelse i debatten om det globala klimatet och dess förändringar. Medan ökningen av växthusgaser bidrar till att medeltemperaturen på jorden ökar, är teorierna de motsatta vad gäller aerosolpartiklarna. Genom att med sin blotta existens direkt sprida det inkommande solljuset och utöver detta även agera såAtmospheric aerosol particles are believed to have an impact on the radiative forcing of the earth's surface. The predicted results indicate a net cooling effect on the global climate, however there are few studies available to substantiate this and experimental data are needed. This work deals with the collection and the analysis of aerosol particles in various environments, specifically in the

This thesis is based on results concerning the formation of semiconductor self-assembled quantum dots. The quantum dots have been grown by metal organic vapour phase epitaxy in the Stranski-Krastanow growth mode. This growth mode is based on a strain-induced transition from two-dimensional layer-by-layer growth towards three-dimensional island growth. The resulting morphology consists of coherent,

Analysis of 'gender certification' process and resistance to it at three Swedish universities: Umeå, Uppsala and Lund, and its relation to trends in higher education teaching and administration.

Energianvändningen på området är högre än beräknat. Både värme och el överstiger de beräkningar som gjordes inom Det goda samtalet. Samtliga fastigheter har haft skador eller brister som kan härledas till byggtiden vilket ökat energianvändningen. Merparten av byggnaderna har också högre uppmätt innetemperatur än ansatt under Det goda samtalet. En del byggnader har förbättrat klimatskalet relativt

I artikeln studeras relationen mellan meningslängd, fraslängd och skiljetecken i utdrag ur tio svenska romaner. En "neutral romanrytm" urskiljs för en grupp av de undersökta texterna. Övriga texter avviker från den "neutrala romanrytmen" på flera olika sätt.

Automatic construction of Shape Models from examples has been the focus of intense research during the last couple of years. These methods have proved to be useful for shape segmentation, tracking and shape understanding. In this paper novel theory to automate shape modelling is described. The theory is intrinsically defined for curves although curves are infinite dimensional objects. The theory i

Study of Swedish reception of Norwegian film Max Manus: Man of War and Danish film Flame & Citron, both of them occupation dramas set during the Second World War.

It is important to measure the relative humidity, RH, level in a concrete slab before applying semi permeable flooring to the surface. If the moisture level in the concrete is too high when the flooring is applied the high alkali level in combination with the moisture will degrade the adhesive. This paper describes a new system used to continuously measure and monitor RH in situ during the constru

Background Oral contraceptives were introduced almost 50 years ago, and over 100 million women currently use them. Oral contraceptives can reduce the risk of ovarian cancer, but the eventual public-health effects of this reduction will depend on how long the protection lasts after use ceases. We aimed to assess these effects. Methods Individual data for 23 257 women with ovarian cancer (cases) a

Embedded platform development, where a platform is a basis for a family of products, is characterized by soft-and hardware co-design as well as very tight constraints on cost and available real-time system performance. The latter implies that early software performance estimation plays a crucial role in embedded platform development. Due to the different focus of software and hardware design, perf

Det är tio gånger så vanligt att migranter från Somalia startar eget företag i Minnesota, som i Sverige. Sysselsättningsgraden för somaliafödda är också två till tre gånger högre i USA. I rapporten ”Etniskt företagande som startmotor” har ekonomhistorikerna Benny Carlson och Tobias Schölin vid Lunds universitet intervjuat företagare och företrädare för somaliska företagarcenter i Minnesota.
