This paper presents a search for hypothetical massive, charged, long-lived particles with the ATLAS detector at the LHC using an integrated luminosity of 139 fb−1 of proton–proton collisions at s = 13 TeV. These particles are expected to move significantly slower than the speed of light and should be identifiable by their high transverse momenta and anomalously large specific ionisation losses, dE
Autoimmune T cell responses directed against insulin-producing β cells are central to the pathogenesis of type 1 diabetes (T1D). Detection of such responses is therefore critical to provide novel biomarkers for T1D 'immune staging' and to understand the mechanisms underlying the disease. While different T cell assays are being developed for these purposes, it is important to optimize and standardi
Islet autoantibodies (IAs) precede the clinical onset of type 1 diabetes (T1D); however, the knowledge is limited about whether the prodrome affects complete blood counts (CBCs) in 4- to 12-year-old children with increased genetic risk for T1D. This study tested whether CBCs were altered in 4- to 12-year-old children without (n = 376) or with one or several IAs against insulin, GAD65, or IA-2 (n =
The significance and impact of IHERI on international relations is gaining recognition, yet this crucial aspect remains remarkably understudied. This study aims to explore the relations, processes and patterns of IHERI on bilateral relations and development cooperation between South Africa and Sweden. Primary quantitative and qualitative data was collected through a mixed methods approach encompas
Currently, industries are actively pursuing heat decarbonization solutions, yet face challenges in identifying and understanding suitable options for their facilities. Thermal energy storage (TES), systems that capture and store renewable energy for prolonged periods to provide superheated steam, are presented as a promising but relatively recent solution for decarbonizing heat-intensive industrie
Denna studie syftar till att analysera och utvärdera effekterna av EU:s strategi för hållbara och cirkulära textilier på den svenska textilsektorn, med fokus på producenter av professionella textilier. Genom semistrukturerade intervjuer och tematisk analys har utmaningar och möjligheter relaterade till implementeringen av strategin identifierats. Resultaten visar att implementeringen av styrmedel This study aims to analyze and evaluate the effects of the EU's strategy for sustainable and circular textiles on the Swedish textile sector, with a focus on producers of professional textiles. Through semi-structured interviews and thematic analysis, challenges and opportunities related to the implementation of the strategy have been identified. The results show that the implementation of ins
In this written study, I have researched video game music from the 90’s and early 2000’s to see what I can learn from the process of composing music for video games, as well as how the hardware and software capabilities of the game consoles shaped the music. First it presents my own background and relation to the subject, next it establishes what functionally separates video game music from conven
This master’s thesis explores everyday life on the islands Asperö and Brännö, located in the South archipelago of Gothenburg. Although the islands are part of the Gothenburg municipality, their geographical separation creates unique, place-specific challenges, while also the boundedness of the islands' isolation fosters a sense of community among residents. The aim of the study is to gain an u
Uppsatsen har syftat till att kritiskt granska samtyckesrekvisitet i 16 kapitlet 4 § HSL samt 10 kapitlet 8 och 9 §§ SoL (kallad SIP-bestämmelsen), speciellt i relation till individer med nedsatt beslutsförmåga. Lagtext och dess förarbeten har granskats liksom den praktiska tillämpningen av SIP-bestämmelsen. Dessutom har bestämmelsen satts i ett annat perspektiv genom att samtyckesregleringen i SVThis essay set out to critically examine the need for consent regarding the possibility to obtain a coordinated individual plan (SIP). This is covered in a legal provision I refer to as the SIP-provision. It is analysed in relation to individuals with impaired decision-making capacity. The legal provision as well as preparatory works has been explored and there is also the aspect of how the provis
I detta arbete undersöks förtroende och genuinitet på sociala medier. För att konkretisera studeras en av Sveriges största influencer- Bianca Ingrosso. Genom kvalitativa samtalsintervjuer från 5 kvinnliga studenter på Lunds universitet uppnås djupare förståelse kring vad som är genuint respektive inte genuint på sociala medier och speciellt på forumet Instagram. Utifrån ett modernistisk synsätt på
The purpose of this case study was to explain the impact of peer education to promote behavioural change in a student community. The ABC behaviours to abstain, be faithful and use condom have been central and unique behavioural approach to reduce HIV infections in the 1990s in Uganda. Behavioural and empowerment theories, including diffusion of innovations, are central for this study. Semi-struc
I svensk rätt saknas lagstiftning som reglerar kommersiella entreprenadavtal. Istället regleras sådana avtal genom särskilda standardavtal som utarbetats av branschföreträdare under flera decennier. AB 04 är ett av de mest centrala standardavtalen på den kommersiella entreprenadrättens område. Syftet med denna framställning är att utreda innebörden av garantiansvaret i AB 04 kap. 5 § 5. Enligt deThere is no legislation regulating construction contracts between commercial parties in Sweden. Instead, these types of contracts are governed by special standard-form contracts that have been developed by industry representatives over several decades. AB 04 (General conditions of contract for building and civil engineering works and building services) has gained a central position in the field of
BackgroundDimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) is essential for the preservation of liquid nitrogen-frozen stem cells, but is associated with toxicity in the transplant recipient. Study Design and MethodsIn this prospective noninterventional study, we describe the use of DMSO in 64 European Blood and Marrow Transplant Group centers undertaking autologous transplantation on patients with myeloma and lymphoma
In order to validate and to gain confidence in two micro-beam techniques: particle induced X-ray emission with nuclear microprobe technique (mu-PIXE) and synchrotron radiation induced X-ray fluorescence in a confocal alignment (confocal SR mu-XRF) for characterization of microscopic particles containing actinide elements (mixed plutonium and uranium) a comparative study has been performed. Inter-c
This Letter reports a search for a heavy particle that decays to WW using events produced in pp collisions at root s = 7 TeV. The data were recorded in 2011 by the ATLAS detector and correspond to an integrated luminosity of 4.7 fb(-1). WW -> lvl'v' (l,l' = e or mu) final states are considered and the distribution of the transverse mass of the W W candidates is found to be consistent with Standard
Background: Airborne particles are associated with increased morbidity and mortality due to respiratory and cardiovascular diseases in polluted areas. There is a growing interest in nano-sized particles with diameter < 100 nm and their potential health effects. Heart rate variability (HRV) is a noninvasive method for cardiovascular risk prediction in high prevalent groups. Aim of study: The aim wa
Syftet med förevarande framställning är att undersöka hur regleringen av hets mot folkgrupp i 16 kap. 8 § BrB och skyddet för yttrandefrihet enligt grundlagarna och Europakonventionen förhåller sig till varandra. Vidare syftar framställningen till att utreda hetslagstiftningens konformitet med skyddet för yttrandefrihet, kraven på rättighetsbegränsande lagstiftning och de intressen hetslagstiftnin
