We present an investigation on the effect of inter-micellar connections (branches) on the rheology of wormlike micelles. The system chosen is made of lecithin, minute amounts of water and organic solvents. Lecithin and water self-assemble into wormlike reverse micelles that can be branched or unbranched depending on the oil composition (and on the water content). In this respect, cyclohexane favou
The management of resources among competing QoS-aware applications is often solved by a resource manager (RM) that assigns both the resources and the application service levels. However, this approach requires all applications to inform the RM of the available service levels. Then, the RM has to maximize the "overall quality" by comparing service levels of different applications which are not nece
Syftet med uppsatsen är att utreda gränsdragningen av ett samtyckes ansvarsbefriande verkan vid misshandelsfall av normalgraden i sexuella sammanhang. Dessa fall rör sig i gränslandet mellan det straffbara och det straffria. Uppsatsen utreder gränslandet genom att se till hur ett ansvarsbefriande samtycke är uppbyggt. Det konstateras att det krävs ett giltigt samtycke och att själva gärningen inteThe purpose of this bachelor thesis is to investigate the boundary of a consent exonerating effect on assaults of the normal degree made in a sexual context. Such cases are located at the boundary between the criminal and impunity. The paper investigates the boundary area by looking at how an exonerating consent is constructed. It is noted that there is a need for a valid consent and that the act
Wall collision broadening of absorption lines of gases confined in porous media is a recently opened domain of high-resolution spectroscopy. Here, we present an experimental investigation of its application for pore size assessment. We report on the manufacturing of nanoporous zirconia ceramics with well-defined pore sizes fine-tuned from 50 to 150 nm. The resulting pore structure is characterized
It is very common nowadays to speak of an ''information society'' in which control of information or information based knowledge has replaced control over matter as an ultimate source of economic power. The intellectual creations protected through patents, trade marks, copyrights etc constitute often a huge part of the companies' intangible assets. For example, the value of the

According to the laws of social security, the social services shall endeavour a reunion between birth parents and the child after the child has been taken into custody. Before a reunion is possible a certain amount of changes is required by the parental roles. These changes can possibly be achieved with the support from the social services. The parents must be aware of what changes that is require
Åberopandet av bevis i de svenska domstolarna styrs av principen om fri bevisföring, som ger parterna rätt att presentera de bevis de önskar, utan krav om att beviset ska ha tillkommit i enlighet med viss reglering. Från denna princip finns dock vissa undantag. Bevis som härstammar från en anonym källa har ansetts utgöra ett sådant undantag, på grund av oförenligheten med processrättens krav och pThe presenting of evidence within Swedish courts is controlled by the principle of free production of evidence, which gives the parties a right to refer to any evidence, without any requirements regarding its conception. There are however a few exceptions. Evidence originating from anonymous sources has been considered an exception, due to the discrepancy between such evidence and the principles o
A unipolar diffusion charger with minimal particle losses in the ultrafine size range has been developed. This charger uses two radioactive α-sources to produce ions which are drawn into the charging region by an alternating electric field. The aerosol flow in the centre of the charging region is surrounded by a particle-free sheath air flow to prevent particle losses. Charged aerosol particles mo
Popular science summaryWater is very important for life. In order to survive every organism needs to control the amount of water in its cells. One of the main ways the cell regulates its water content is through aquaporins. Aquaporins are membrane proteins that allow water and/or small neutral molecules to enter or exit the cell. Aquaporins form a large family and are present in all life forms, hoAbstractAquaporins are membrane integral proteins that facilitate the transport of waterand/or other small neutral molecules across biological membranes in cells in allforms of life. Among the subfamilies of aquaporins in higher plants, the X IntrinsicProteins (XIPs) are the most recently discovered subfamily and the leastcharacterized. However, the aromatic/arginine (ar/R) selectivity filter and
INTRODUCTION: Universal Health Coverage is not only about access to health services but also about access to high-quality care, since poor experiences may deter patients from accessing care. Evidence shows that quality of care drives health outcomes, yet little is known about non-clinical dimensions of care, and patients' experience thereof relative to satisfaction with visits. This paper investig
The ability to observe ultrafast structural changes in nanoscopic samples is essential for understanding non-equilibrium phenomena such as chemical reactions, matter under extreme conditions, ultrafast phase transitions and intense light-matter interactions. Established imaging techniques are limited either in time or spatial resolution and typically require samples to be deposited on a substrate,
Protein dynamics contribute to protein function on different time scales. Ultrafast X-ray diffraction snapshots can visualize the location and amplitude of atom displacements after perturbation. Since amplitudes of ultrafast motions are small, high-quality X-ray diffraction data is necessary for detection. Diffraction from bovine trypsin crystals using single femtosecond X-ray pulses was recorded
Context. We describe the atomic and molecular data that were used for the abundance analyses of FGK-type stars carried out within the Gaia-ESO Public Spectroscopic Survey in the years 2012 to 2019. The Gaia-ESO Survey is one among several current and future stellar spectroscopic surveys producing abundances for Milky-Way stars on an industrial scale. Aims. We present an unprecedented effort to cre
Self-service business intelligence (SSBI) enables executives, managers, analysts and knowledge workers to access data and build reports based on their needs to support decisions and actions toward business success. This suggests that business users not only consume information but that they are also able to author information. This discourse remains concentrated at an industrial level, and there i
This paper examines the practice of signposting in online counselling provided by the social services in Sweden. Specifically, it focuses on cases where online users are steered to seek offline help. The data corpus consists of 68 online chat logs (quasi-synchronous interactions) and 200 Internet question form exchanges (asynchronous interactions). The data were examined using the approach of conv
Post partum depression är ett omfattande folkhälsoproblem som utlandsfödda mödrar löper ökad risk att drabbas av. Rutinmässig screening av alla nyblivna mödrar för post partum depression har implementerats i många länder för att öka identifikationen, men tidigare forskning indikerar att hälso- och sjukvårdspersonal upplever screening av utlandsfödda mödrar som en svår arbetsuppgift. Det övergripanPostpartum depression is a major public health problem, which immigrant mothers are at particular risk of being affected by. Routine screening is implemented by many countries to increase identification, but research suggests that health care professionals experience screening of immigrant mothers as challenging. The overall aim of this thesis was therefore to develop an evidence-based educational
