Background & Purpose: Radiation therapy is an essential treatment for cancer patients with the ultimate goal to deliver radiation doses to the tumour with precision while minimizing exposure to surrounding healthy tissues. Treatment verification is crucial to ensure the accuracy of radiation delivery, for instance by measuring the radiation dose distribution. Among various dosimetry techniques
Ectomycorrhizal fungi (ECM) form symbiotic relationships with trees by connecting to the roots, procuring soil nutrients in exchange for carbohydrates, and are an important contributor to plant growth. The forestry practice of clearcutting can be detrimental to the ECM community by removing its source of energy and creating unfavorable soil conditions, acutely reducing ECM diversity. This paper ai
This thesis investigates the intertwining of corporate social responsibility (CSR) discourse and the European Union's strategy for sustainable and circular textiles through a single case study and critical frame analysis (CFA). By doing this, concurring discourse between corporations and the institutions aimed at governing them can be problematised. Derived from conventional and contemporary C
According to traditional trade theory, trade reduces inequality between the rich and the poor. However, since the beginning of the 1980s, a constantly rise in within-country inequality has been observed in many developed and developing countries. With the rapidly increasing globalization during the same period in mind, a natural question to ask is whether the two phenomenon are linked. In this pap
The European Corn Borer (ECB) has the potential to markedly reduce the yield from corn plants and in turn affect the economy of farmers. The human world population is increasing and there is consequently an increased number of mouths to feed on a limited area, the Earth, and this makes this an important topic to study. It is thus important to find out whether the ECB likely will be an important pe

This thesis aims to test and evaluate the use of image-based 3D modelling techniques on rune stones. To test the method a well-documented rune stone was chosen, Hyby stone 1. The stone has been dated to the Viking Age and contains 37 runes, whereof 29 are still visible, two crosses and a stag. These carvings have been detected by other scholars with the use of non-digital methods. In order to eval
Kvidingefältet ligger i nordvästra Skåne på Söderåsens nordöstra sida och avlagringen är ett delta som bildades i en havsvik under deglaciationen av området. Syftet med undersökningen är att göra en arkitektonisk analys av Kvidingedeltats tredimensionella uppbyggnad och att ta reda på hur deltautbyggnaden gått till. Sedimentologiska studier i form av översiktskartering utfördes i åtta av täkternasThe Kvidinge deposit is situated in north-western Scania, southern Sweden. It is a delta formed in a bay during the deglaciation of the area. The purpose of the investigation is to do an architectural analysis of the threedimensional build-up of the Kvidinge deposit and to reconstruct the progradation of the delta. Sedimentary studies have been performed in eight sections and seven logs have been
