A search for the Standard Model Higgs boson produced in association with a top-quark pair, , is presented. The analysis uses 20.3 fb(-1) of pp collision data at , collected with the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider during 2012. The search is designed for the decay mode and uses events containing one or two electrons or muons. In order to improve the sensitivity of the search, events are
A search is presented for the pair production of light scalar top quarks in root s = 7 TeV proton-proton collisions recorded with the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider. This analysis uses the full data sample collected during 2011 running that corresponds to a total integrated luminosity of 4.7 fb(-1). Light scalar top quarks are searched for in events with two opposite-sign leptons (e,
The Ebola virus (EBOV) RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp) complex consists of the catalytic subunit of the polymerase, L, and its cofactor VP35. Using immunofluorescence analysis and coimmunoprecipitation assays, we mapped the VP35 binding site on L. A core binding domain spanning amino acids 280-370 of L was sufficient to mediate weak interaction with VP35, while the entire N-terminus up to amin
A measurement is presented of the inclusive cross-section for b-jet production in association with a Z boson in pp collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of root s = 7 TeV. The analysis uses the data sample collected by the ATLAS experiment in 2010, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of approximately 36 pb(-1). The event selection requires a Z boson decaying into high P-T electrons or muons,
Background Frail elderly people need an integrated and coordinated care. The two-armed study "Continuum of care for frail elderly people" is a multi-professional and multidimensional intervention for frail community-dwelling elderly people. It was designed to evaluate whether the intervention programme for frail elderly people can reduce the number of visits to hospital, increase satisfaction wit
For model-based quantitative reconstructions of past vegetation cover on the scale of landscapes, pollen productivity estimates (PPEs) are key input parameters. In this study, we employed a random sampling strategy to collect moss polsters at 20 sites in Changbai Mountain, northeastern China. A detailed vegetation survey within 1000-m radius around each sampling point was carried out and digitized
Den senaste tidens genetiska utveckling har medfört stora möjligheter att genom assisterad befruktning hjälpa naturen på traven för par som av olika anledningar inte kan få barn på naturlig väg. Man kan insemineras, ägg kan befruktas utanför kroppen och man kan använda sig av donerade ägg eller spermier. Man kan till och med hyra en livmoder. Möjligheterna ökar och fler och fler kan bli föräldrar The recent development in the area of assisted reproductive technology has entailed large opportunities to help childless couples to get pregnant. Today, women can get inseminated and their eggs can be fertilized outside their bodies. Donated gametes can be used and you can even rent a uterus. The possibilities are growing – but to what cost? Assisted reproduction means a deviation from the natur
Den tekniska utvecklingen har under den senaste tiden tagit stora kliv framåt, vilka inneburit positiva förändringar för yttrandefriheten. Men parallellt med de nya möjligheterna har det även tillkommit nya problem. Internet, och främst sociala medier, har blivit en kommunikationsplattform där också hat, hot och kränkningar frodas. Känslan av anonymitet och den fysiska distans som internet skapar The development of the Internet, and also user devices such as smart phones, has recently made significant strides, which have had a great positive impact on freedom of speech. However, in parallel with the new opportunities, new problems have developed. The Internet, and foremost social media, has become a communication platform where hatred, threats and violations of privacy thrive. The feeling
Interventions on dubious grounds is nothing new, violation of the principle of sovereignty and the violation of the territorial integrity of an independent state is an area that is a constant current field of study. Developments in Europe in aspect of Russia's military interventions in Georgia in 2008 and Ukraine in 2014 shows a new method for states to legitimize military action in another so
Sex trafficking has from six hundred thousand to four million victims each year (McCabe and Manian, 2010: 41-43). Because of different legal barriers, sex trafficking is closely associated with organized crime; crime victims often do not search for support from legal systems, law enforcement authorities, or other officials (ibid.) This thesis was to understand how law affects the ability of preven
Popular summary: Air quality data mart built in this study consists of historical air pollutant data for cities across Ontario. This data is available at the Ontario ministry of environment website from 2000-2007 for most of the cities. There is missing data for some of the cities and some pollutants as well. It is because the monitoring of those specific pollutants did not commence in or before 2
Abstract Author: Ermina Barudzija Title: “It’s all about understanding each others occupations and roles”– a qualitative study on the social services and the police’s local collaboration with regard to youth crime, in Landskrona Supervisor: Anders Östnäs Assessor: Helena Hansson The purpose of this thesis was to describe and analyze the social services and the police’s local collaboration with r
This essay aims to enlighten people living with protection of personal data. How everyday life is affected for a person with protection of personal data is answered by a qualitative interview. We have also examine the protection society can offer people who are facing a definite threat. Living with protection of personal data is in many ways problematic for the threatened person and the hole life
Popular Abstract in Swedish De två studier som presenterats i föreliggande avhandling avser att belysa sambandet mellan den administrativa organisationen av skolan och rektors möjligheter att leda den pedagogiska verksamheten. Vidare avser den att granska sambandet mellan lärargruppens anda och tillfredsställelsen med rektors ledarskap. Studierna avser också att granska hur rektors förmåga att etaThe thesis focuses on the elementary school principal’s formal responsibility and role in connection with his spatial and psycho-social nearness to the teachers. On one hand it is a comparison between schools in Sweden and Iceland, while on the other hand it is a case study of the principal’s leadership in several different school organisations. These studies are based on the theory that even if t
