Relations between different core-particle coupling models based on the Bohr Hamiltonian are discussed, and in particular the γ-unstable and rigid 30° triaxial cores are compared quantitatively. A new formulation is developed employing a rigid triaxial rotor core and the strong-coupling basis. Within the limitations imposed by this model core, it is equally applicable in the limits of small and ext

Hyperfine structure measurements have been performed in some neutron-deficient gold isotopes, using on-line atomic-beam magnetic resonance (ABMR) techniques at the ISOLDE facility, CERN. The following results have been obtained: 185Au, I = 5/2; 187Au, Δv = 44.35(60) GHz, μ = 0.72(7) n.m. and 188Au, Δv = ± 2992(30) MHz. A discussion of the influence of the hyperfine anomaly is included. With due re

Departing from the high level of health issues that exists among LGBTIQ youth in Sweden, this study examines how pedagogues in preschools in Malmö implement LGBTIQ issues based on queer theory, intersectionality and critical race studies. The research takes a qualitative approach and uses material from interviews and participatory observations conducted at two preschools in Malmö. The material is

The main focus of this Master Thesis is the development and evaluation of an actuation system that controls a variable compressor for the automotive industry. This variation allows the compressor to produce different boost pressures on demand. Before the development process could start a theoretical analysis of the different forces acting on the system were conducted. These analyses consisted of a

In 2017, a change (serendipity) in the philosophy of occurrence investigations took place at NS (Dutch Railways). It seems the investigations conducted and published before and after 2017 are different, both in the way the investigations are executed and in their effects on the organisation. This research has been carried out to find out if, in what way, and to what degree the two specific types o

Climate change constitutes a major collective action problem because it affects all of humanity, and an effective response to it is unlikely if individual actors prioritize their own interests independently. The international community has thus acknowledged that the issue requires a collective response. Climate change has also been considered a common concern of humankind. The concept of common co

Syftet med uppsatsen har varit att undersöka huruvida det kan utgöra en kränkning av de mänskliga rättigheterna i Europakonventionen när stater inte lever upp till sina klimatåtaganden och inte gör tillräckligt för att motverka klimatförändringarna. Uppsatsen inleds med en allmän överblick av klimatförändringarna och dess konsekvenser i förhållande till mänskliga rättigheter samt en genomgång av dThe purpose of this thesis has been to examine whether it can constitute a violation of the human rights protected by the European Convention on Human Rights when states do not do their part to counteract climate change. The essay starts off with a general overview of climate change and its consequences in relation to human rights, as well as a review of the two most central climate agreements, th

The knowledge about the hydraulic conductivity of the subsurface is crucial to know as it is a main parameter for groundwater flow characterization within an aquifer. The geophysical method time-domain Induced Polarisation has been shown to be useful for estimating the hydraulic conductivity. By using a new inversion approach, where we directly invert for hydraulic properties as inversion paramete

Objectives: Previous research suggests that governments usually gain support during crises such as the Covid-19. However, these findings are based on rating scales that only allow us to measure the strength of this support. This article proposes a new measure of how voters evaluate Prime Ministers (PM) by asking for descriptive keywords that are analyzed by natural language processing.Methods: By

Serialization is an old narrative strategy and a form of publication that can be traced far back in literary history, yet serial narratives are as popular as ever. This book investigates a resurgence of serial narratives in contemporary literary culture.Analyzing series as diverse as Mark Z. Danielewski’s experimental book series The Familiar; audiobook series by the Swedish streaming service Stor

Support for developing a work identity hasbeen shown to be essential for the recovery process ofyoung adults with mental health problems. Sinceresearch shows that the development of a student roleduring the educational years for these young adultsmay be interrupted, this time period may be relevant toexplore in order to support career development and thecritical transition to adulthood for this ta

With a national prevalence of 4.9% in the adult population, the HIV-1 epidemic in Kenya is the fifth largest in the world. HIV-1 prevalence is more than three-fold higher among HIV key populations – including men who have sex with men (MSM), people who inject drugs (PWID), and female sex workers (FSW) than in the general heterosexual (HET) population. However, the contribution of different risk gr

Bacteria and viruses are threats to human that evolved strategies to bypass the immune system and can cause massive damage. Understanding these strategies and elucidating pathogen interacting partners within the human immune system will pave the way for discovery of new medicines and increase human well-being. Superantigens (SAgs) are toxins that induce a massive immune response, causing sever di

CHANGES resulting in altered antigenic properties of viruses nearly always occur on their surface and have been attributed to the substitution of residues directly involved in binding antibody. To investigate the mechanism of antigenic variation in foot-and-mouth disease virus (FMDV), variants that escape neutralization by a monoclonal antibody have been compared crystallographically and serologic

For polarization-resolved reflection experiments such as ellipsometry, not only is high reflectivity in a wide spectral range required for mirrors but also the quality of their polarization response is important. Furthermore, for VUV ellipsometry, optimal angles of incidence at the sample are between 45° and 60° with respect to the surface normal. In the best case, a setup should even allow variab

Some pesticides, used in large quantities in current European agricultural practices, are suspected of having harmful effects on human health (cancers, metabolic diseases, neurodegenerative diseases). While occupational exposure is now well documented, data on the exposure of the general population to these molecules, mainly through dietary route are lacking. The aim of this work was to identify d

Smoke from western North American wildfires reached the stratosphere in large amounts in August 2017. Limb-oriented satellite-based sensors are commonly used for studies of wildfire aerosol injected into the stratosphere (OMPS-LP (Ozone Mapping and Profiler Suite Limb Profiler) and SAGE III/ISS (Stratospheric Aerosol and Gas Experiment III on the International Space Station)). We find that these m

We report a new design of an acoustophoretic trapping device with greatly increased capacity and throughput, compared to current commercial systems. Acoustic trapping enables nanoparticle and exosome enrichment without the need for ultracentrifugation. The commercial acoustic trapping technology, AcouTrap (AcouSort AB), typically operates at flow rates < 50 μl/min which limits processing of larger
