KEMM48. Kursens mål är att studenten ska tillägna sig grundläggande kunskaper om statistisk mekanik. Ett viktigt mål med kursen är att studenten ska tillägna sig en fördjupad förståelse för begreppet entropi och därmed överbrygga motsättningen mellan en mikroskopisk ansats (statistisk mekanik) och en makroskopisk (termodynamik). Kursen handlar om att förstå och härleda makroskopiska (termodynKEMM48. The objective of the course is to enable students to acquire basic knowledge of statistical mechanics. An important objective is to enable students to acquire specialised understanding of the concept of entropy and thereby bridge the opposition between a microscopic approach (statistical mechanics) and a macroscopic one (thermodynamics).  The course is about understanding and der

I denna kurs studerar vi hur kristendom och islam historiskt påverkat statsmakten, och hur de påverkar dagens politik.

Ecological rehabilitation projects - as a form of reforestation interventions - are increasing worldwide and present an opportunity for climate change mitigation and supporting local livelihoods. Implemented in post-conflict situations, they are increasingly promoted as solutions for peace. Aiming at understanding their contributions to sustainability and peacebuilding, I examine proposed rehabili

Back-arc volcanism in the western Argentinian provinces of Mendoza and Neuquen has been widespread from the Miocene to historic times. We present a detailed investigation of profiles through two of the major Miocene volcanic areas of the region, the neighboring Huantraico and La Matancilla plateaus, including new Ar-40/Ar-39 age results of major and trace elements as well as Nd, Sr and Pb isotopic
