Simple analytical upper bounds, approximations and lower bounds on the error functionQ(x)are presented and analyzed. A class of functions are given, where the choice of two parameters result in good upper bounds, lower bounds and approximations onQ(x). The results are given in formulas, parameter tables and graphs. The approximations are suitable for programmable pocket calculators.

The T matrix for scattering of waves by a circular disk is derived. Both the scalar (Dirichlet and Neumann boundary conditions) and the vector (perfectly conducting disk) cases are considered and the use of alternative choices for surface field functions is discussed in detail, and it is found that either type of the surface field representation is equally good for the disk case. Analytic expressi

Multitype branching processes have been employed to determine the stack algorithm computational distribution for one subtree. These results are extended here to the distribution of the number of computations in any finite number of subtrees. Starting from the computational distribution forK-1subsequent subtrees, a recurrent equation for the distribution forKsubsequent subtrees is determined.

This paper describes differences between the capacity of Swedish and Danish students to attain life quality. This was carried out by examining the level of competence in four different groups of Swedish and Danish students, and is based on the hypothesis that the possession of competence is a premise for the development of life quality. Competence means the ability to make sense in complex situati

Popular Abstract in Swedish Acceleratormasspektrometri, AMS, är en relativt ny metod för att bestämma extremt låga koncentrationer av såväl radioaktiva som stabila atomer. Metoden innebär att man med kärnfysikalisk teknik räknar atomerna en och en. De främsta fördelarna med AMS, jämfört med konventionella metoder, är att mycket små provmängder kan analyseras och att mättiden är kort. Mängden av eAccelerator mass spectrometry (AMS) is a highly sensitive method for counting atoms and it is used for detecting very low concentrations of both radionuclides and stable isotopes in small samples. The two major advantages of the AMS method are that the required amount of sample material is very small, but also that the efficiency is rather high, it takes less than an hour to analyse a sample. The

Popular Abstract in Swedish Hjärt- och kärlsjukdomar som till exempel åderförkalkning utgör en av världens vanligaste dödsorsaker. I den här avhandlingen har vi utvecklat olika metoder som med hjälp av bildanalys ger värdefull information om kärlväggen i syfte att förbättra kunskapen om artärer och framförallt åderförkalkning. I avhandlingen presenteras fem olika metoder som alla är baserade på biAtherosclerosis is one of the major causes of death in the world. It is an inflammatory disease in the arteries which causes a gradual increase in arterial wall thickness and stiffness. Eventually a plaque could be formed, protruding into the artery and partially occluding the blood flow. Rupture of such a plaque could cause cardiac infarction or stroke. This dissertation revolves around finding b

Excitation of a core electron and the subsequent emission of an Auger electron is described in a simplified model, where the core electrons couple only to the plasma oscillations of the conduction electrons and not to individual electron-hole excitations. Results are evaluated to lowest nontrivial order, namely when only terms linear in the interaction with the exciting probe and linear in the Aug

Massive MIMO has been shown, both in theory and through experiments, to offer very promising properties. These include the possibility to decrease output power by at least an order of magnitude while still achieving large gains in spectral efficiency, as compared to today’s access schemes. To efficiently design communication algorithms and evaluate massive MIMO schemes, channel models that capture
