Cobalt oxides are known to be active catalysts for a number of chemical reactions, but very little is known about the atomic scale processesresponsible for the activity. The research presented in this thesis is focused on obtaining an atomic scale understanding of the chemistry of wellcharacterizedcobalt oxide model catalyst surfaces consisting of pristine and defective CoO and Co3O4 thin films wi
Long-chain polyunsaturated (LCP) fatty acids derived from linoleic (18:2 n-6) and alpha-linolenic (18:3 n-3) acids are considered essential nutrients in preterm infants. The efficiency by which such fatty acids are released as absorbable products from triacylglycerol was explored in vitro using rat chylomicron triacylglycerol as substrate. When incubated with purified human pancreatic colipase-dep
We study the concept of self-similarity with respect to stochastic time change. The negative binomial process (NBP) is an example of a family of random time transformations with respect to which stochastic self-similarity holds for certain stochastic processes. These processes include gamma process, geometric stable processes, Laplace motion, and fractional Laplace motion. We derive invariance pro
From the end of the nineteenth century and one hundred years onward, home sewing was an important part of many women’s duties, but it was also a pleasure, something that existed parallel with the emerging mass-produced ready-to-wear industry. The paper patterns used for home dressmaking were often sold and distributed through women’s magazines. These pattern sections were both a kind of reader ser
BACKGROUND: The value of CT at the time of diagnosis for patients with cutaneous head and neck melanoma clinically asymptomatic for metastatic disease is unclear.METHODS: A retrospective medical chart review was performed on 198 consecutive patients identified with primary T1b-T4b head and neck melanoma clinically asymptomatic for metastatic disease referred for sentinel lymph node biopsy procedur
Discover how the master’s programme in Photonics fosters independent thinking, collaboration and hands-on learning in an international study environment, through the experience of Marzo who graduated from the programme in 2025.
In this paper, the effect hosting a mega sports event has on economic growth and the inflow of foreign direct investment is investigated over the period 1970 – 2016. This paper differentiates between six different mega sports events. Furthermore, it also investigates whether hosting mega sports events in developing countries has a different impact on economic growth and the inflow of foreign direc
PurposeNo consensus exists whether to administer prophylactic antibiotics in conjunction with manual placenta removal. This study aimed to investigate the postpartum risk of a new prescription of antibiotic treatment, a possible indirect variable for infection, after manual placenta removal.MethodsObstetric data were merged with data from the Anti-Infection Tool (Swedish antibiotic registry). All
A literature review and statistical analysis of the potential of agricultural residual waste as building materials in South Sweden was carried out. This data showed that there is a clear capacity for the use of mainly straw-generating crops as building materials in the region.
The first part of the first volume of the Swedish Academy Dictionary (SAOB) was published in 1893 and the last volume was finished in 2023. Thus Sweden’s most extensive lexicographical project was completed after more than 130 years of work. But the completion is not the end of the dictionary project. Since 2024 a revision project is launched. In this paper the history of the dictio
I understand patronage principally as a work of cultural and material support - the support shich was necessary to stage the performance of a piece of music in mayn different contexts. I focus on the fate of an opera, Richard Wagner's Parsifal, a work which was not performed at the Bayreuth festival between 1939 and 1944 because of its emphasis on reconciliation, non-violence and faith, but which
