A search for diphoton events with large missing transverse momentum has been performed using proton-proton collision data at is root s = 7 TeV recorded with the ATLAS detector, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 4.8 fb(-1). No excess of events was observed above the Standard Model prediction and model-dependent 95% confidence level exclusion limits are set. In the context of a generalise

This dissertation looks into the treatment of exposed children and young people. The background is a puzzlement as to how the discourse on treatment, during the latest twenty years, has concentrated on the same institutions and themes (Ebsen, 2007).

Asylrätten är en het politisk fråga i och med den europeiska flyktingkrisen. Denna uppsats är ett försök att reda ut vilka folkrättsliga skyldigheter och EU-rättsliga som åligger Europeiska stater, och i synnerhet Sverige, på asylrättens område. Fyndet är att en allmän rätt till asyl inte existerar, men i praktiken finns något som kan liknas vid detta i och med förbudet mot att förvisa en flykting

Examensarbetet undersöker möjligheten att låta avbördningskapaciteten – det vill säga sambandet mellan vattennivå och vattenföring – vara vägledande för bedömning av underhållsbehovet i åar och diken. Den potentiella nyttan av en sådan metod bedöms vara hög då den skulle kunna minska frekvensen av omotiverade underhållsinsatser som påverkar vattenmiljön negativt. Arbetet utgår från ett dikningsförThis master thesis project investigates the possibility of using stage–discharge relationships for evaluation of river maintenance demands. In Sweden, the potential benefit of this type of methodology is considered high, in order to prevent unnecessary maintenance activities which are harmful for the aquatic environment. The study is focused on a ditching organization in Höje River in southern Swe

Bakgrund: Handboll är en skadedrabbad idrott där majoriteten av alla skador kan lokaliseras till nedre extremiteten. Knän och anklar är de mest skadedrabbade områdena, vilka främst drabbas av skador på ligamentära strukturer. Riskfaktorer för skada är till exempel tidigare skador, oro/ångest och en hög träningsbelastning. Syfte: Syftet var att kartlägga och jämföra förekomsten av skador i nedre e

Denna studie avser studera de prioriteringar Svenska Filminstitutet framlägger i sitt handledningsmaterial för lärare och vad det betyder för filmens roll i svenskämnet och synen på film i skolan i helhet. Detta görs via två metoder där den första studerar ett stort urval av studiematerial och den andra gör närläsning på ett mindre urval. I den sistnämnde metoden studeras även handledningarnas möjThis study intends to find the priorities presented by the Swedish Film Institute in its guidance material for teachers and what these priorities say about the role of film education within Swedish schools in general and the subject of Swedish in particular. This is done via two methods, the first covers a large selection of study material, and the second does a close reading on a smaller selectio

This paper examines the degree to which dynamic inconsistency in climate policy presents a serious challenge in the sense that exclusively pursuing near-term cost-efficiency implies strong disincentives for policy makers to attain long-term abatement goals. We model technological change and cost-efficient emissions cuts of roughly 80% in the EU-27 energy sector during the forty-year period 2010-20

Information and communication technology (ICT) is ubiquitous in tourism and this changes not only tourists’ immediate behaviour, but also what tourism is. In this way, digitalisation is shifting perceptions of when tourism starts and ends, and how we can understand the term in principal ways. The aim of this working paper is to contribute to the debate about the consequences of today´s fast digita

This paper presents a theoretically and methodologically grounded GIS-based model for the measurement and mapping of an index of living conditions in urban residential areas across Sweden. Further, the model is compared and evaluated using the Swedish Police’s assessment of crime-exposed areas. The results indicate that the geographically measured vulnerable living conditions overlap to a large ex

Despite new therapies, castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) is still incurable. Intercellular Adhesion Molecule 1 (ICAM-1) is a well-characterized cell surface protein involved in prostate cancer pathogenesis, differentially expressed during transition from hormone-sensitive to CRPC. This study aimed to investigate ICAM-1 as a target for imaging and radioimmunotherapy of CRPC.Anti-ICAM-1 an
