An investigation of how electron/photon beam exposures affect the intercalation rate of Na deposited on graphene prepared on Si-face SiC is presented. Focused radiation from a storage ring is used for soft X-ray exposures while the electron beam in a low energy electron microscope is utilized for electron exposures. The microscopy and core level spectroscopy data presented clearly show that the ef
An automated routine for the continuous calibration of thermographic phosphors was developed as a replacement for the conventional calibration scheme that relied on fixed temperature points. The automated calibration routine was validated using Mg 3 F 2 GeO 4 :Mn as a calibration phosphor. Hardware and software aspects of the calibration process were addressed in this development. The hardware asp
Over the coming decades, Europe is one of the first parts of the world to face a gradual decline of its population which in turn will lead to a sustained process of aging in society. Though some European countries are more affected than others, this phenomenon is shared by most of the post-industrial societies of Western Europe. Among other economic and social effects, these radical changes will p
In order to meet the ever-increasing demand for bandwidth and reducing the Operational Expense (OpEx), mobile backhaul networks are evolving from circuit-switched networks to packet-switched or IP networks. Passive Optical Network (PON) is one of many transport technologies deployed in mobile backhaul network. PON as mobile backhaul network has lots of advantages, such as providing very large band
The work of Beppe Fenoglio, a well-known Italian writer, has increased in popularity in the 90s, more than 30 years after his death. As a reaction to the change in the Italian political scene with the entry of the neo fascist party in the government in the 90s, the new generation felt a need to defend the democratic ideals; this might explain the rediscovery the works of Fenoglio where the partisa
With increasing concerns about environmental impacts of the food that is consumed, so is also the concern about packaging materials. This also comprises the packaging that is currently used to pack infant formula (IF), very often containing aluminum as the barrier material. IF is a very sensitive product that demands for the highest barriers to protect it from lipid oxidation. This implies that th
The objective of this study was to assess the influence of user behaviour on the Smart Grid performance and to identify possible interfaces between end-users and the energy network. In order to get an image of the electricity customers attitude to Smart Grids and energy-efficiency, a questionnaire was conducted as a first step. Afterwards, a combination of thermal building simulations and the deri
Hur bör de senaste decenniernas utveckling inom IT och pedagogik påverka utformningen av nya lärandemiljöer? Kan skolarkitektur bidra till att främja god fysisk och psykisk hälsa? Arbetssätt och målsättningar har ändrats mycket inom den svenska skolan under de senaste decennierna. Informationsteknologi har i grunden ändrat tillgängligheten till information och påverkat hur vi både arbetar och koHow should the technological and pedagogical development during the last few decades affect the design of new schools? Can school architecture contribute to good physical and mental health in young teenagers? The way of working and targets for what the students should achieve have changed a lot in Sweden during the last few decades. Information technology has fundamentally changed the ease of ac
Sverige är ett land där hästnäringen är stor vilket innebär att många, både människor och hästar, berörs av lagstiftningen på området. Lagstiftningen har blivit föremål för kritik då den anses ha en negativ inverkan på näringen och där med hämmande för branschens utveckling. Att köpa en häst som konsument innebär att samma lagstiftning som vid köp av en brödrost blir tillämplig, konsumentköplagen.Sweden is a country in which the horse business is of considerable size. This means that many, both people and horses, are affected by the current legislation. This has been the object of widespread criticism as signs show it may have an inhibitory effect on the trade and industry. To buy a horse as a consumer means that the same legislation is applicable as when purchasing a toaster, the Consumer
Dynamic capabilities enable firms to systematically modify their resource base and build competitive advantage. As dynamic capabilities literature is diverging in definition and scope, this research work analyzes conceptual literature on dynamic capabilities regarding commonalities, differences, and development over time. Therefore, a total of 56 publications in eleven highly ranked journals betwe
Polycrystals, crystals consisting of multiple grains with different crystallographic orientations, gained interest in recent years as they mimic industrial catalysts. They have been studied thoroughly utilizing imaging techniques to investigate the various surface structures of the grains; however, measurements under ambient pressure conditions are necessary for closing the pressure gap. In this t
IntroductionWater scarcity is a growing problem, with estimates showing that 40% of the world’s population could face water shortages by 2030. This issue is even worse because only 3% of the Earth’s water is freshwater, while 97% is seawater. Finding better ways to save and use water is critical to solving this problem. At the same time, renewable energy is essential for reducing carbon emissions
Handelsbolag och kommanditbolag är juridiska personer men inte skattesubjekt vid inkomstbeskattning. Huvudregeln är att ett sådant bolags resultat beskattas hos dem som är delägare i bolaget vid räkenskapsårets utgång. Den skattemässiga fördelningen ska i princip grundas på bolagsavtalet eller vad som annars har avtalats mellan delägarna. Syftet med förevarande uppsats är att utreda huruvida friTrading partnerships and limited partnerships are legal entities but not a taxable subject for income taxation. The main rule is that the profit of such a company is taxed on those who are partners in the company at the end of the financial year. The tax distribution shall in principle be based on the company agreement or what has otherwise been agreed upon between the partners. The purpose of th
The construction and demolition industry are annually responsible for 40% of the total amount of waste generated in Sweden. The problem facing the industry is that a very large portion of the waste is disposed of in landfills, and only a very small portion is recycled and reused. The purpose of this study is to investigate how the construction industry can become more circular and sustainable over
Oat is a cereal that contains high lipid content when compared to other cereals and is a potential oil crop. Oats also have high content of lipase enzymes when compared to other cereals, that causes hydrolytic rancidity which causes the soapy bitter taste that may develop in oats. Therefore, oats that are intended for human consumption are heat treated to inactivate lipase enzymes and thus, to imp
