Black Carbon Black Carbon – Formation, life cycle, impacts, co-benefits, policy, mitigation and response measures The Soot theme at the Pufendorf Institute This initiative develops a multi- and cross-disciplinary research program centered on soot from domestic and industrial combustion processes. Also called black carbon or elemental carbon, soot is a major driver of climate change and contributor

During travels, people want to be able to move fast and smooth from point A to point B. Thereby, many people can relate to the struggles which occur when carrying several belongings simultaneously. This master’s thesis was performed in collaboration with Thule Sweden AB and the purpose was to develop a design concept which would make it easier to travel with a wheeled luggage in combination with

Den svenska företagsbeskattningen baseras på att varje enskilt företag är ett självständigt skattskyldigt subjekt. Däremot finns vissa möjligheter att beakta flera företags resultat av näringsverksamhet när dessa ingår i en koncern. Ett alternativ som har ställts upp är de skatterättsliga koncernbidragen. Då koncernbidragsreglerna aktualiseras och en värdeöverföring har skett mellan två företag inSwedish corporate taxation is based on the fact that each individual company is an independently taxable subject. On the other hand, in some circumstances it is possible to take into account several companies' income of economic activities, when these are part of a corporate group. One option available is the group contribution. If the rules concerning group contributions are applicable and a

Syftet med denna studie är att ur ett sociologiskt perspektiv undersöka hur det är att bo i Barcelona och arbeta i ett internationellt callcenter som ung europeisk medborgare. Vad är det som motiverar individer att migrera och arbeta i Barcelona? Hur upplever de förutsättningar i arbetet, social gemenskap och hur uppfattar de sin tillhörighet? Dessa frågeställningar sätts sedan i en bredare kontexThe aim of this study is from a sociological perspective understand how it is to live in Barcelona while working in an international call centre as a young European citizen. What motivates these individuals to migrate to Barcelona? What is their perspective of work, social community and notion of belonging? These questions are later to be examined together with theories of migration, modernization

Background Histological examination of small bowel biopsies is normally the gold standard for the diagnosis of celiac disease (CD). The objective of this study was to investigate whether the rate of decreases in elevated plasma IgA tissue transglutaminase antibody (IgA-tTG) and/or IgG deamidated gliadin peptides antibody (IgG - DGP) concentrations could be used as a confirming test for CD in child

Song is a sexually selected trait in many bird species and has been suggested to function as a signal of a male's health and parasite resistance. Here we present an experimental field study on the long-term effects of parasite exposure early in life on adult bird song. We exposed nestling great tits (Parus major) to ectoparasitic hen fleas (Ceratophyllus gallinae) and on their recruitment into the

Gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) have a malignant potential varying from virtually no risk of recurrence (microscopic GISTs) to a high risk. Acquired secondary mutations that interfere with imatinib binding have been identified as a common mechanism for drug resistance and tumor progression in advanced GIST. Patients with advanced GIST but with a small tumor mass have the longest time to di

Attosecond pulses offer a new route to produce temporally localized electron wave packets (EWPs) that can easily be tailored by altering the properties of the attosecond pulses. In this thesis we will present different experiments, supported by theory, where attosecond EWPs are created in presence of a strong infrared (IR) field. By tuning the central frequency of the attosecond pulses and/or chan

Popular Abstract in Swedish Sandstäpp är ett starkt hotat växtsamhälle i Sverige som består av många specialiserade och hotade arter som t.ex. sandnejlika, tofsäxing och sandliljor. Exempel på hur en sandstäpp kan se ut hittas i Figur 1 i den Engelska sammanfattningen. Sandstäpp finns på sandig mark med kalk i ytjorden och ett lågt näringsinnehåll. Den karaktäriseras av ett uppbrutet växttäcke somA number of sandy grassland habitats of interest for biodiversity conservation can be found in Europe. One such habitat is the threatened xeric sand calcareous grassland, which is home to a large number of endangered species. It is characterized by a discontinuous vegetation cover, mainly consisting of stress-tolerant species favoured by nutrient-poor and dry conditions. The xeric sand calcareous

Understanding, monitoring and mitigating drought is a very difficult task as a consequence of the intrinsic nature of the phenomenon. In addition, assessing the impact of drought on ecosystems and societies is also a complex task, because the same drought severity may have different consequences in different regions and systems due to the underlying vulnerabilities. New technologies based on geosp

The surface properties of high-density lipoproteins (HDLs) are important because different enzymes bind and carry out their functions at the surface of HDL particles during metabolic processes. However, the surface properties of HDL and other lipoproteins are poorly known because they cannot be directly measured for nanoscale particles with contemporary experimental methods. In this work, we carri

The O-arm system is a mobile intraoperative imaging system that is comprised of fluoroscopy and cone beam CT. The configuration of the O-arm system with absence of patient table and a broad beam width (165 mm in isocenter) brings new practical and physical requirements on how to perform dose measurements. The purpose of this study was to describe a method that overcomes this and makes it possible

While sub-continuum heat conduction becomes more important as the size of micro/nanodevices keeps shrinking under the mean free path of heat carriers, its computation still remains challenging to the general engineering community due to the lack of easily accessible numerical simulation tools. To address this challenge, this article reports the finite element analysis (FEA) of transient ballistic-

The articular cartilage of synovial joints ensures friction-free mobility and attenuates mechanical impact on the joint during movement. These functions are mediated by the complex network of extracellular molecules characteristic for articular cartilage. Zonal differences in the extracellular matrix (ECM) are well recognized. However, knowledge about the precise molecular composition in the diffe

Although temporal heterogeneity is a well-accepted driver of biodiversity, effects of interannual variation in land-use intensity (LUI) have not been addressed yet. Additionally, responses to land use can differ greatly among different organisms; therefore, overall effects of land-use on total local biodiversity are hardly known. To test for effects of LUI (quantified as the combined intensity of

Azoospermia is a serious potential side effect following treatment for testicular cancer (TC). Our purpose was to examine possible predictors of long-term azoospermia in TC survivors. Ejaculates and blood samples were obtained from 217 patients at post-orchidectomy but before further treatment (T0 ) and/or at one or more of the time points 6, 12, 24, 36-60 months after treatment (T6 , T12 , T24 ,

Purpose To investigate the prognostic value of the overall karyotypic features and specific chromosome aberrations in colorectal cancer (CRC). Patients and Methods Cytogenetic features of 150 primary CRCs investigated at the time of surgery were correlated with patient survival by univariate and multivariate analyses, using classical clinicopathologic parameters as covariates. Results In univariat

Polymer adsorption of uncharged homopolymers onto planar surfaces has been investigated by employing a coarse-grained bcad-spring polymer model using simulation techniques. Polymer solutions of two different densities and polymers of two different Contour lengths have been examined. The dynamics of the adsorption process appearing in systems composed of a polymer Solution placed near attractive. b
