Phosphor Thermometry is a term describing an optical measurement technique for remote temperature sensing. Its working principle is based on the temperature-sensitive emission characteristics of certain ceramic substances termed thermographic phosphors. These inorganic materials can either be coated on objects for surface thermometry or be seeded into the gas phase or into liquid flows as solid pa

The Earthshine telescope project is a collaborative effort between Lund Observatory (LO) in Sweden and The Institute of Meteorology in Demark (DMI) with the purpose of constructing one or more robotic telescopes to record the albedo of the Earth over a long time. The objective is to measure long-term development of the global cloud coverage and reflectivity for climate modeling. A 1% change in the

This thesis advocates for the evaluation of current sociopolitical conflicts through the lens of social movement theory, as a decisive path to deconstruct the premises of the German right-wing party Alternative for Germany (Alternative für Deutschland, AfD). The party is conceptualized as an institutionalized social movement, which is insufficiently answering public material grievances caused by e

Experimental results for pointing tasks using a tongue control system are reported in this paper. Ten untrained subjects participated in the experiment. Both typing and pointing tasks were performed, in three short-term training sessions, in consecutive days, by each subject. The system provided a key pad (14 sensors) and a mouse pad (10 sensors with joystick functionality) whose placements were i

The European furniture industry is driven to change from linear to circular business models. Product-service systems (PSS) are considered to offer promising solutions that may enable the transition towards the circular economy. In the furniture industry, one example of a product-service system is the furnishing rental service. However, understanding of how such a service could be developed and imp

Brandskum som innehåller per- och polyfluorerade ämnen (PFAS), på engelska Aqueuous Film Forming Foam (AFFF), är en av de främsta källorna till föroreningarna i Sverige. Grundvattenförorening orsakat av användandet av AFFF under brandövningar har undersökts i Kallinge, Blekinge. I området har grundvattnet använts som råvatten vilket resulterat i förhöjda halter av PFAS i dricksvattnet. Liknande faAqueuous Film Forming Foam (AFFF) containing Perfluoroalkyl and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances (PFAS) is one of the major sources of groundwater contamination in Sweden. Groundwater contamination caused by the use of AFFF in correlation to fire training events was investigated in Kallinge, Sweden. At the site groundwater was previously used as a drinking water source consequently affecting the inhabit

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
