Sex chromosomes are chromosomes that carry vital sex-determining genes. Different sex determination systems and sex chromosomes have evolved from autosomes independently in different taxa; nevertheless, they share strikingly similar characteristics. Sex chromosomes undergo somewhat unique evolutionary processes due to paucity in recombination and transmission through only one of the sexes. As a re
Uppsatsen Är alla spelare manschauvinistiska i WoW: Genus och språkbruk inom World of Warcraft är skriven av Josefine Björkman och Åsa Hermansson och är författad under Medie- och kommunikationsvetenskap, vid Institutionen för kommunikation och medier, på Lunds universitet. I den här uppsatsen undersöks spelkulturen i World of Warcraft genom att analysera genus och språkbruk. Utifrån ett genuspers
In food production facilities, packagings are quality inspected to ensure proper sealing and correct atmo- sphere within. The project was done in collaboration with Gasporox AB (publ), a company developing and producing quality inspection instruments. The goal of the project was to develop a new version of an exiting instrument of theirs. In addition to that, develop a portable inspection de
In our research paper, we shed light on the various impacts of acculturation and changes in religious consumption in the lives of muslims, who have migrated from the east and are experiencing life in the west. We took into consideration the holy month Ramadan as a religious reference to our study where we examine muslims religious performance during this time. As Ramadan is considered the most spi
Purpose: The thesis aims to address the different roles incumbent firms can take in the emerging plant-based ecosystem and to contribute with new understandings related to these ecosystems. Theoretical framework: The theoretical foundation for the thesis is rooted in theories on systems thinking, ecosystems and with a discussion around the roles that are inherent in ecosystems. This is accompanie
In this work, a series of nickel NCN complexes and ligands have been synthesized with the goal of determining whether they can perform so-called CO2-insertion reactions into Ni-C bonds. So far, only the synthesis of the Ni-Br precursor complexes to the previously mentioned Ni-C complexes have been synthesized. Attempts to synthesize the target complexes have been made and are described herein. Som
Multi-User Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MU-MIMO) technology has become increasingly important in the field of wireless communication due to its ability to highly increase the capacity and efficiency of wireless networks [1]. Beamforming, as a technique used in MU-MIMO systems, improves network performance by improving signal quality and reducing interference. With the emergence of 5G and beyond
The thesis reviews research about assimilation and education of Turkish immigrants in Germany. The thesis describes Human Capital theory, multiculture and cultural hegemony and segmented assimilation model. By using descriptive quantitative methods, it shows that Turkish-German community tends to be isolated and exclusive mainly due to their family and father centered social structure which was br
This thesis investigates informational asymmetry in an expert market through developing a base and an extended theoretical model. The example in focus is the case of driving schools. The asymmetry in information is of the nature that the seller knows more about how many lessons (quantity of the good) the buyer needs. A key point of interest is also the repeated nature of the buyer and seller’s int
Chile is one of the countries in South American working to achieve energy independence by introducing renewables energy to reduce its greenhouse gas emissions from conventional energy sources. Chile has a variety of water resources from the North to the South, where most of these resources are comprehended by short rivers that are exploited to produce hydro-electric power. Chile has a huge number
Vertical nanowire field effect transistors (NWFETs) have in this diploma work been studied in order to examine possible benefits of introducing a highly doped shell around the nanowire channel. It could be concluded that this new device geometry significantly enhances DC performance metrics. It does however also introduce an additional potential drop which may be large enough to reduce device stab
Abstract The idea of the spread of life through the galaxy is, in most minds, considered science fiction. Yet, scientists argue that most galaxies have had more than enough time for civilisation development and space travel. In this thesis I simulate how civilisations can spread through the galaxy via close encountering stars, assuming they travel at sub-relativistic speeds. A defined region arou
The effects of a change of environment on water kefir’s microbial diversity was studied by splitting up two existing cultures (stem 1 and stem 2) among several households and culturing them for three weeks using the same method and ingredients. Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) was used on the 16S rRNA gene to identify bacterial families, genera and strains. Sphingomonadaceae, Lactobacillaceae, Ace
The goal of this master's thesis is to detect and position sharp sounds using Axis speakers with built-in microphones. Sharp sounds of special interest are gunshots. The system needs at least five speakers to function and is designed for usage in indoor environments. The project follows a pipeline in order to position sound sources containing recording, synchronisation, detection of gunshot in
The insurance industry is notoriously conservative and has seen comparably few technological improvements in the last fifty years. A wave of new technology- driven insurance firms, or insurtechs, is changing that. By leveraging new technology and offering more customer-centric and innovative products, these firms have captured shares in many insurance markets. One technology — yet to be broadly a
