Exclusive dimuon production in ultraperipheral collisions (UPC), resulting from photon-photon interactions in the strong electromagnetic fields of colliding high-energy lead nuclei, PbPb(γγ) → μ+μ-(Pb(∗)Pb(∗)), is studied using Lint = 0.48 nb-1 of √sNN = 5.02 TeV lead-lead collision data at the LHC with the ATLAS detector. Dimuon pairs are measured in the fiducial region pT,μ > 4 GeV, |ημ| <2.4, i

The discrete Bak-Sneppen model is a Markov chain describing the co-evolution of n species arranged in a one-dimensional circular lattice with periodic boundary conditions. Each species i at time t is assigned a fitness value xi(t) ∈ {0,1} and the system evolves through local interactions: at each time step, a species with fitness 0 is selected, and its fitness—along with that of its two neighbors—
The rule of law, as a topic of long-standing concern to the sociology of law, has been contributed to by countless scholars from theoretical and empirical perspectives. However, there is still great potential for the study of the rule of law in other countries beyond the conventional Western understanding. This is especially the case for research on the rule of law in China, a self-proclaimed soci
At the forefront of the fourth industrial revolution, technologies such as digital twin seek to shift the way industrial companies operate. A digital twin is a virtual replica of a product, system or process. Historically, the focus has been on representing single objects but it is now shifting to interconnected processes, such as supply chains. Advanced versions of a supply chain digital twin can
During this bachelor thesis I have studied the potential to use meadows as a vegetation type in urban environments instead of the traditional lawn, or amenity grass. The task of this thesis is interesting as the loss of biodiversity is a serious problem for our society, not the least because it threatens many important ecosystem services. In this thesis I have focused on the role of real estate co
This paper aims to answer the following research question: “To what degree do informal institutions influence the business strategy of developed multinational enterprises in China?” By using the comparison of existing literature and two primary interviews from strategic professionals, we were able to discover the most important factors for DMNEs to consider when entering China. The Uppsala Mode
Value at Risk (VaR) is a popular measurement for valuing the risk exposure. Correct estimates of VaR are essential in order to properly be able to monitor the risk. This thesis examines a copula approach for estimating VaR for portfolios of commodities. The predictions are made from a semi- parametric model with Monte Carlo methods. The underlying model is constructed by choosing the best fit from
This thesis was written at CellaVision who sells digital microscope systems, mainly used for blood analysis. Blood tests are an important part of modern health care and today digital microscopes are widely used to replace conventional microscopy. It is important that the digital images of blood cells are of high quality and that they look as they would in a traditional microscope. CellaVision has
The Alingsås dry-cleaning facility is one of the heavily halogenated hydrocarbon contaminated sites in Sweden. The source of contamination dates back to the 1970s when a large scale tetrachloroethylene leakage outbroke inside the dry-cleaning building. After years of propagation and dissemination, the tetrachloroethylene together with its degradation products was widely found in soil and groundwat
Software security has become an increasingly hot topic of debate during the last few years of cyberattacks, especially now that we are entering the era of Internet of Things. How does the developer of a product decide which software to include from a security perspective and is it possible to create a tool for software comparison that the developer could use for this purpose? The aim of this thesi
Det första av mina två syften var att undersöka huruvida det finns en könsrelaterad diskrepans gällande operasångares försörjningsmöjligheter. Jag samlade in empiri om antalet arbetstillfällen per röstfack och könsfördelningen vid operautbildningar, samt genomförde en enkätundersökning om hur tidigare studenter vid Sveriges operahögskolor försörjer sig. Slutsatsen kunde dras att det finns en stor The first of my two purposes was to investigate whether there is a gender disparity in the possibilities to make a living as an opera singer. I collected empirical data on the number of jobs per fach and the gender breakdown of students at opera schools, and conducted a survey on how former students at Sweden's opera schools supported themselves. I concluded that there is a large disparity to
Climate refugees are becoming increasingly common due to increased global warming as a result of excess emissions, the vast majority of which come from the Global North. The aim of this thesis is to examine how the climate refugee issue is described in Swedish media against a backdrop of a potential conflict between a Swedish self-image as progressive in humanitarian matters, and the recent strict
This thesis evaluates the ability of three hand-calculation models for estimating overpressure from hydrogen vapour cloud explosions. The models were the TNT, TNO and OHVE models. The aim was to assess their performance in realistic release environments and identify their strengths and limitations. Model predictions were validated against experimental data from three experimental setups: a refuell
This thesis conducts a semiotic study of British colonial stamps produced between 1890 and 1960. The main focus is the stamp's message and ideology, understood within the theoretical framework of Roland Barthes and complemented with postcolonial theory by Anne Kaplan and John MacKenzie. The study concludes that two main mythologies can be constructed by analysing the samples, one regarding the
