Förenligheten mellan ISDS-mekanismen i Artikel 26 i Energistadgefördraget (ECT) och EU rätt har länge varit föremål för diskussion inom EU.

This thesis describes how photoemission stimulated by an attosecond pulse train (APT) can be used to extract information on electron correlation in simple quantum systems such as atoms. The emission of the electron by an APT induces a reorganization of the electrons remaining in the ion core. This reorganization causes a change in the trajectory of the emitted electron. An infrared (IR) field is u

BACKGROUND: Hospital readmissions are common among older multimorbid patients, and hospitalisation is associated with functional decline and reduced quality of life. Identifying patient characteristics and risk factors for repeated hospital visits following an emergency department (ED) encounter is important for guiding targeted interventions to prevent future revisits.AIM: To characterise multimo
