A search for pair-produced vector-like quarks using events with exactly one lepton (e or μ), at least four jets including at least one b-tagged jet, and large missing transverse momentum is presented. Data from proton–proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of s= 13 TeV , recorded by the ATLAS detector at the LHC from 2015 to 2018 and corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 139 fb - 1 ,
Decentralized water reuse technologies are increasingly being explored as a transformative approach for complementing centralized water and wastewater infrastructure. A transition to onsite water reuse requires a better understanding of how urban infrastructures are governed. While governance tends to be discussed within ideal types─i.e., hierarchy, market, and network─researchers increasingly rec
Introduction: Whether and under what conditions scientific knowledge provided by experts actually leads to political action is a question that academic research in various fields have focused on at length, without reaching a definitive answer. The position of expertise is especially delicate within the global environmental governance sphere containing multiple values, worldviews and epistemologica
2024 marks the second anniversary of the Russian full-scale invasion of Ukraine. The war has resulted in large numbers of Ukrainian refugees entering EU member states, including Germany. As far-right parties are on the rise across Europe, the topic of immigration is high on the political agenda again. Mainstream right and far right parties are competing for the discursive upper hand on the top
The purpose of this study was to investigate how collaboration was experienced within the social administration and the school and leisure administration. This study included six respondents, three from the social administration and three from the school administration. I have used a thematic analysis where three different themes were developed. I made a selection to name these three themes obstac
Uppförandet av nya byggnader och renoveringar av befintliga byggnader har lett till större intresse för certifieringssystem med hårdare krav än lagstiftningen. Ökad kunskap om hållbarhet och att brukandet av jordens resurser måste reduceras har lett till miljö- och hälsocertifieringar, bl a Miljöbyggnad 3.0 som är en nationell miljöcertifiering som ställer krav på byggnaden och WELL Building Stand
Plant-based ice cream and whipping cream are increasingly popular as sustainable alternatives to traditional dairy products. Their low fat content makes them much healthier than high-fat dairy products. However, achieving desirable texture and stability in plant-based desserts remains a challenge. This study investigated how different processing conditions (homogenization pressure, upstream/downst
This thesis aims to analyze female sexual and bodily rights in Lebanon from a queer perspective, focusing on issues such as space and visibility and the strategically neglecting of historical existence of female narratives, referred to as conceptual anorexia. The thesis was preceded by a field work conducted in Beirut where observations of the field and interviews with LGBTQ- and/or feminist activ
The Water hyacinth is one of the worst aquatic weeds in the world and it is today present on all continents except Antarctica. It causes big problems for both people and the aquatic ecosystems in many countries. A lot of research has been completed to find methods to eradicate the weed and a lot of money has been spent on management to keep waters clean. In this literature study on management meth
Problem discussion: Syncron experience a challenge in realizing the full market potential of its newly developed IT-based price management system, Global Price Management (GPM). The system has already been implemented and is currently running with success within the IT-structures of the first customer. The fact that the development of the system has been initiated by a customer, and thereby has le
It is normally assumed that induced transitions, by e.g. hyperfine, magnetic field or spin interaction, arise due to mixing in the upper levels. In this paper we discuss an example when mixing in the lower levels through an externally applied magnetic field gives rise to a magnetic field induced transition. We discuss the theory for such a transition and give an example from Fe X, which is relevan
The world has been afflicted heavily by the burden of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) that overwhelmed health care systems and caused severe economic and educational deficits, in addition to anxiety among the public. The main aim of this study was to evaluate the mutual effects of belief that the pandemic was the result of a conspiracy on knowledge and anxiety levels among students at the Univ
Introduction: It remains unclear whether offering psychiatric patients their preferred treatment influences outcomes at the symptom level. Objective: To assess whether offering patients with Panic Disorder with/without Agoraphobia (PD/A) a choice between two psychotherapies yields superior outcomes to random assignment. Methods: In a doubly randomised, controlled preference trial (DRCPT), 221 adul
IntroductionMulti‐component T2 mapping using a gradient‐ and spin‐echo (GraSE) acquisition has become standard for myelin water imaging at 3 T. Higher magnetic field strengths promise signal‐to‐noise ratio benefits but face specific absorption rate limits and shortened T2 times. This study investigates compartmental T2 times in vivo and addresses advantages and challenges of multi‐component T2 map
We propose a multistep approach for representing and classifying tree-like structures in medical images. Tree-like structures are frequently encountered in biomedical contexts; examples are the bronchial system, the vascular topology, and the breast ductal network. We use tree encoding techniques, such as the depth-first string encoding and the Prüfer encoding, to obtain a symbolic string represen
Measurements of atmospheric composition have been made over a remote rainforest landscape. A box model has previously been demonstrated to model the observed daytime chemistry well. However the box model is unable to explain the nocturnal measurements of relatively high [NO] and [O3], but relatively low observed [NO2]. It is shown that a one-dimensional (1-D) column model with simple O3-NOx chemis
Adherence to national and international clinical practice guidelines is suboptimal throughout Europe. The European Association of Urology Guidelines Office project “IMAGINE” (IMpact Assessment of Guidelines Implementation and Education) has been developed to measure baseline adherence to urological guideline recommendations across Europe and to identify issues that drive nonadherence.
Genom att använda den rättsdogmatiska metoden klargör denna uppsats i vilken utsträckning svensk rätt möjliggör somatisk vård mot beslutsoförmögna patienters vilja och hur denna reglering förhåller sig till Europakonventionens grundläggande fri- och rättigheter. Vård mot beslutsoförmögna patienters vilja ger upphov till svåra rättsliga och etiska dilemman i förhållande till grundläggande rättighetBy applying the legal dogmatic method this thesis clarifies the extent to which Swedish Law permits somatic care against the will of patients lacking decision-making capacity and how such regulations relate to the rights and freedoms protected under the European Convention on Human rights. This thesis starts by examining the implications of chapter 2 section 6 of the Swedish Instrument of Governme
