Den som är yngre än 18 år stadgas vara omyndig enligt gällande rätt, men den som är 15 år gammal kan bli föremål för straffrättsliga påföljder om den begått ett brott. Enligt gällande rätt bör dock straffrättsliga påföljder dömas ut mycket restriktivt när lagöverträdare är mellan 15 och 17 år, eftersom vårdande åtgärder angetts erhålla företräde. Enligt barnkonventionen, vilken gäller som svensk lAccording to the Swedish Parental Code (1949:381), chapter 9, section 1, a person below the age of eighteen years is considered a minor. But according to the Swedish Penal Code (1962:700), chapter 1, section 6, a person above the age of fifteen may be subject to sanctions if he or she has committed a crime. According to the Convention on the Rights of the Child, which was incorporated as Swedish l

Induced Cell Aging by Radiation Aging is a natural phenomenon that affects almost all living organisms and brings with it an array of disease. In humans, aging is in part due to shortening of one’s telomeres. Telomeres are sequences of DNA at the end of our chromosomes that do not code for any genetic information. Thus, they can serve as protection, non-coding DNA taking damage that would otherwi

I centrum av vår galax, Vintergatan, finns ett supermassivt svart hål som är mer än fyra miljoner gånger så massivt som solen. Runtom detta supermassiva svarta hål, ibland kallat Sagittarius A* (Sgr A*), finns ett extremt tätt kluster av stjärnor som utgör det nukleära stjärnklustret. För att förstå hur tätt detta kluster faktiskt är så kan vi jämföra det med avståndet till solens närmaste granne,The Milky Way harbors a supermassive black hole (SMBH) at its dynamical center. Surrounding the SMBH is a dense nuclear star cluster (NSC) which is believed to include a binary population. Beyond $0.1\mathrm{pc}$ from the SMBH, Eccentric-Kozoai Lidov oscillations are suppressed by general relativity precession, and the dynamical evolution of binaries are completely dominated by encounters with oth

HUR SVÅRT ÄR DET ATT TORKA ETT VITT PULVER? Frågan om energieffektivisering är idag ytterst aktuell och då inte minst för företag inom industrin där energianvändningen kan vara väldigt stor. Att minska sin energianvändning sparar inte bara pengar utan även miljön och ger en bättre ”grönare” image. I studien som utfördes tog man fram nyckeltal för utvärdering av en torkprocess samt analyser av prodDue to the act on Energy Audits in Large Enterprises (EKL) that came into effect on the 1st of June in 2014, all larger companies are obligated to perform an energy audit every four years. Parallel to the audit performed at Alufluor AB this more detailed audit of the drying part of their process was carried out. This as the drying part is energy intensive and is responsible for the majority of the

The ambition to move road transport from fossil fuels to electric energy is a large undertaking. One of the biggest challenges with making the trucks fully electric is to charge them. They are usually operated daytime, and the operations gives very little time for charging resulting in the power needed for daytime charging being in the high 100s of kW. A desired system implemented at the terminal

The purpose of this study was to investigate how social workers, working with financial aid, creates participation for children and if their work has been affected by the legal enforcement of the Convention on the Rights of the Child and its children rights perspective. We used a qualitative method when interviewing in order to examine and find an answer to our purpose and question at issue. The r

Brottet kontakt med barn i sexuellt syfte regleras i 6 kap. 10a§ BrB och tar sikte på situationen när en vuxen, i kontakt med ett barn under 15 år, föreslår eller stämmer träff med barnet i syfte att begå vissa i paragrafen uppräknade sexualbrott. Bestämmelsen har visat på en bristande förmåga att resultera i lagföring. En förklaring till detta är svårigheterna att upptäcka brottet vid en tidpunkThe crime of contact with a child for sexual purposes is governed by Chapter 6, paragraph 10a of the Swedish Criminal Code and regulates the situation when an adult, in contact with a child under the age of 15, proposes or agrees to meet with the child for the purpose of committing certain sexual offenses listed in the paragraph. The provision has shown a lack of ability to result in prosecution

Our purpose was to examine whether single mothers can be seen as a social issue. How do the mothers themselves experience their own situation to be single parents in contemporary society and how do those who work in society see them as a group? The issues we have studied are: - What is a social issue? - How do single mothers look upon their situation? - How does society see their situation? We hav

Uppsatsens primära syfte är att undersöka förekomsten och regleringen av rörliga ersättningar till ledande befattningshavare i svenska börsbolag. Ett första steg i besvarandet av frågeställningen är att utreda vad begreppet bolagsstyrning är. Termen är en översättning från engelskans corporate governance och definieras bland annat som ”ett system genom vilket företag styrs och kontrolleras”. En goThe primary purpose of this thesis is to examine the existence and regulation of variable remuneration and incentive programs to executive directors in listed companies in Sweden. By way of introduction the thesis investigates what corporate governance is. It is defined as the system by which companies are directed and controlled. A good corporate governance is necessary in order to obtain and att

The European Union is expected to respond to world events every day and terrorist acts are predominate and often conducted by terrorist organizations or non-state actors. One of the most delicate cases is the Lebanese Hezbollah frequently resorting to violence and has over the last 20 years grown evermore important in the Middle East and Lebanon, thereby increasingly elevating the need for the EU

Aim: To investigate the effect of general anaesthesia on the TCI-dosage, the depth of anaesthesia and the need for hemodynamic treatment. A comparison between general anaesthesia (GA) alone and general anaesthesia combined with epidural anaesthesia (GA+EDA). Background: There are some uncertainties in the literature whether epidural anaesthesia has any effect on general anaesthesia governed by Ta

The aim of this paper was to from a social constructivistic perspective highlight the representations of homeless people and homelessness given in Swedish daily/evening papers. The questions it aimed to answer were: how are homelessness and homeless people represented in daily/evening papers? Do the daily and evening paper’s representations correspond with what researches and the National Swedish

All ten LIGO/Virgo binary black hole (BH-BH) coalescences reported following the O1/O2 runs have near-zero effective spins. There are only three potential explanations for this. If the BH spin magnitudes are large, then: (i) either both BH spin vectors must be nearly in the orbital plane or (ii) the spin angular momenta of the BHs must be oppositely directed and similar in magnitude. Then there is

The 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development and its seventeen Sustainable Development Goals were adopted by the United Nations General Assembly in 2015. It is a bold agenda for global social, environmental and economic development, with human health as a central theme. Even though substantial improvements in health have been achieved during the last decades, every year over 5 million children die,

The incidence of melanoma in Sweden is catching up on Australia and is now close to 40/100 000 inhabitants/ year, an increase of more than 5 %/year during the last 10 years. Swedes love the sun and travel a lot to sunny places like Spain and Thailand. There is a clear socioeconomic trend: the better economy and education, the more you travel and the more melanoma you get. Sunbed use is a clear ris

Sepsis is one of the leading causes of mortality and morbidity in the world, and is an overreaction by the immune system due to pathogen invasion of the bloodstream. The interactions, particularly the protein interactions, between the host and pathogen are fundamental for the outcome of the disease. However, some of the protein interactions are unknown and those that are known have been studied as

Background: Preterm birth is known to constitute the major risk factor for development of germinal matrix-intraventricular hemorrhage (GM-IVH). Head position may affect cerebral hemodynamics and thus may be involved indirectly in development of GM-IVH. Turning the head toward one side may functionally occlude jugular venous drainage on the ipsilateral side while increasing intracranial pressure an

Every year, the world adds more renewable energy production capacity than the year before. But, looking historically, is this growth enough to achieve our climate targets? According to a recent publication in ‘Nature Energy’, the short answer is “no” – to meet the climate goals requires decades of growth in renewables at rates higher than those observed historically in most countries. In this epis
