The experimental hindrance factors determined from the fine structure in the C14 decay of Ra223 are strikingly similar to the hindrance factors observed in the alpha decay of odd-A reflection-asymmetric deformed nuclei in spite of the deformed to spherical shape which occurs in the C14 decay. Calculations of the overlap between the reflection-asymmetric ground state of Ra223 and the spherical shel

Excitation energies and branching ratios in 125Xe have been correctly described by using the triaxial rotor plus particle model with deformation parameter ε{lunate}=0.25 and γ=24°. The observed properties, in particular the degeneracy of the yrast favoured and unfavored bands and the signature inversion in the yrare bands are well described by the model. The distribution of core states in the wave

Communicating in the Face of Global Crises explores the complex ways organizations and their strategic practices are communicatively constituted in relation to the ethical expectations of global publics. Positioning organizational strategies as communicative accomplishments, an international team of authors redirect attention to the important role of communication in constituting responses to glob

This chapter examines how multinational corporations communicatively navigate moral responsibility during geopolitical crises, focusing on the war in Ukraine. As corporations increasingly are expected to engage with social and political issues, their actions, or inactions, are interpreted as moral stances. We contend that a feminist ethics of care offers a compelling approach through which to unde

The purpose of this study was to understand how the proposed legislation to lower the age of criminal responsibility from 15 to 13 years can be understood in relation to the Convention on the Rights of the Child. We have used a qualitative method in the form of a document analysis. Our empirical material consisted of the draft of the legislation and relevant articles from the Convention on the Rig

I takt med att Artificiell intelligens (AI) tagit en allt större roll i vårt samhälle har behovet av att träna generativa språkmodeller och AI på stora mängder data blivit en allt mer central fråga, vilket i sin tur lett till upphovsrättsliga frågor när datan som AI:n tränas på är skyddat material. Uppsatsen syftar till att analysera hur användningen av upphovsrättsligt skyddat material som träninThe growing use of generative Artificial intelligence trained on large datasets has increased copyright questions when the training data consists of protected material. The thesis aims to analyze how the use of copyright-protected material as training data can be assessed under both Swedish and EU law, and how the AI Regulations transparency requirements come into play. The study is based on a leg

The purpose of this study is to explore social workers' attitudes towards AI as an assistive tool and attitudes towards how AI affects the work environment. We have conducted a quantitative study by sending a survey to the social services of the municipalities of Scania, Sweden. Social workers have answered questions regarding how AI affects the work environment and general questions about how

In order to enhance understanding of what factors influence the gender division of housework, this study investigates the association between households’ purchases of domestic services and women's share of unpaid domestic labour in Swedish heterosexual working couples. Findings from logistic regression analyses suggest that purchases of domestic services, in the literature sometimes also refer

Att vara förälder innebär många olika saker. Föräldrar har såväl praktiskt som känslomässigt och moraliskt ansvar för sina barn, och inom ramen för allt detta är det mycket som behöver göras och många beslut som löpande behöver fattas. I både nyligen publicerade studier och media har det på den senaste tiden gått att läsa om utbredningen av det som kallas för intensivt föräldraskap och hur det tarThe widespread prevalence of a general intensification of parenting ideals has been described in academic research and discussed in contemporary media debates. This study constitutes a social phenomenological investigation of experiences and perceptions of parenting among the Swedish middle class, with norms, expectations, and ideals of intensive parenting as its primary focus. Semi-structured lif

The school system has undergone changes over several decades as a result of national reforms and reorganizations. These changes have led to increased complexity in what the teaching role entails, and emotional labor and relationship-building have become a central part of teachers’ work. The aim of the study is to examine how primary school teachers relate to the demands and expectations that chara

The deep ultraviolet (DUV) spectral region, from 200-400 nm, can reveal unique information about biological samples, where proteins and biomolecules exhibit distinct spectral signatures in this wavelength region. However, because of technical limitations, the absence of stable DUV light sources has left the research in this spectral range largely unexplored. Recent advancements in laser-driven pla

Studier av olika material och deras egenskaper har en lång historia. Från de fyra elementen till alkemi och slutligen till modern fysik. Modern forskning ägnar mycket tid åt att undersöka exotiska material som beter sig på annorlunda sätt än metaller och endast existerar under extrema förhållanden. De exotiska materialens beteende kommer ifrån hur elektronerna, de minsta av atomernas byggstenar, pThe subject of this work is the simulation of photoemission spectra of simple metals. The simulation is performed using a model based on a dynamical exchange correlation potential. Angle-resolved photoemission spectra at the Γ point, and valence band photoemission spectra are simulated for Li, Na, K, Rb, Cs, Mg, Al and Si. The predicted bandwidths show good agreement with experimental results, wit
