A measurement of W boson production in lead-lead collisions at root s(NN) = 2.76 TeV is presented. It is based on the analysis of data collected with the ATLAS detector at the LHC in 2011 corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 0.14 nb(-1) and 0.15 nb(-1) in the muon and electron decay channels, respectively. The differential production yields and lepton charge asymmetry are each measured as
To obtain a perspective of changes occurring in the marine environment it is essential to study an area over a long time span. Doing so might also facilitate the understanding of the mechanisms and processes that govern a certain marine setting. In this thesis, changes in the pelagic and benthic environment during the last c. 200 years have been investigated in two fjords on the Swedish west coast
Incubation of rat adipocytes with wortmannin, a potent and selective phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI 3-kinase) inhibitor, completely blocked the antilipolytic action of insulin (IC50 = 100 nM), the insulin-induced activation and phosphorylation of cGMP-inhibited cAMP phosphodiesterase (cGI-PDE) as well as the activation of the insulin-stimulated cGI-PDE kinase (IC50 = 10-30 nM). No direct effect
Abstract: The zooplankton community of The Area of Multiple Use Hawaii (AUMH), South Pacific Coast of Guatemala mangrove channel ecosystem was studied in the dry season between February and March 2011. Zooplankton samples were taken during two lunar cycles, four tidal cycles (flood, high water (HW), ebb, low water (LW)), at four different sites. For each sampling occasion, salinity, pH, dissolved
This thesis discusses the role for states and centralised government policies in development intervention. The topic is explored through a case study of India’s Targeted Public Distribution System (TPDS), a large-scale government intervention to enhance food security among India’s poorest households. The central questions of the study were, firstly, which function TPDS serves in the lives of benef
This thesis, The intersections of labour division – an intersectional archaeological and osteological study of labour division, based on the Ljungbacka grave field in Scania, Sweden, has been written with the intention of exploring new ways to approach, interpret and understand labour division. This has been done by practically applying intersectional theories to the Ljungbacka grave field, Lockar
This study examines narratives of Self- and Other-identification in social media content of actors, directly and indirectly involved in the conflict in eastern Ukraine. The aim is to shed light on how social media can be instrumentalised as a means of constructing Self and Other in the context of ongoing conflict. The analysed actors are Ukrainian and Russian political elites, representatives from
The United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples (The Declaration) has gained increasing attention as a tool for promoting indigenous rights. This study contributes to the discussion about its effectiveness by analysing the Declaration’s role in advancing indigenous peoples’ self-determination. A qualitative case study is conducted with Māori activists in New Zealand, using a rig
The summer of 2017 was climatically close to normal in southern Sweden, whereas the following summer was unusually warm and dry. These two years therefore make an interesting case study for investigating the impact of severe drought on vegetation, particularly when considering that climate change is predicted to lead to an increased frequency of drought events in the study area. The comparison wa
Education, particularly girls' education, is essential for personal and national development, addressing issues such as poverty, and political instability. However, gender disparity in education remains a significant problem, leading to increased interest from governments and international organizations in addressing the issue through policy implementation. This study, therefore, investigates
Recognizing the normative power that the European Union projects outside its borders within the environmental field, this thesis seeks to shed light on the norm-importer’s agency in the norm diffusion process. Serbia as a candidate country and its political elite are chosen as the main focus of the empirical analysis. Since Serbia wants to become a member of the EU, it is in its interest to adopt
I Hanöbukten utanför Haväng i sydöstra Skåne finns välbevarade undervattenslämningar från ett mesolitiskt landskap med rester av träd och sediment avsatta i å- och lagunmiljö. Arkeologiska fynd av bland annat stationära fiskeredskap och en hackyxa av horn har gjorts. Landskapet formades under lågvattenperioderna under Yoldiahavet (11 700-10 800 cal BP) och Littorinahavets första fas (9800-8500 calIn the Hanö bay off the coast at Haväng in SE Scania, southern Sweden, a submerged and well-preserved Mesolithic landscape is found, including remains of trees, river and lagoon sediments, and archaeological artefacts such as an antler pick axe and stationary fishing constructions. The landscape was formed during the Yoldia Sea (11,700-10,800 cal BP) and Initial Littorina Sea (9800-8500) low-water
By addressing an absence of implementation studies, this master thesis aims to examine the implementation of the FRESH health policy in schools in Lombok, Indonesia. The method used is a qualitative field study based on empirical material consisting of interviews with representatives from implementing organizations and teachers designated to be “FRESH coordinators” in schools. By utilizing dimensi
Purpose: To compare the earliest detection of progression in visual fields and monoscopic optic disc photographs at different stages of manifest glaucoma. Methods: This study evaluated 306 eyes in 249 patients with manifest open-angle glaucoma included in the Early Manifest Glaucoma Trial (EMGT). All patients in the trial were followed up regularly by standard automated perimetry and monoscopic op

Rapid development in urban areas of maritime countries may need solutions to address scarcity of land for development and infrastructure. Land reclamation has been an option in many maritime countries, including in Malaysia to overcome this problem. Tanjung Tokong Land Reclamation Project is an ongoing development project in Penang, Malaysia, where housing and commercial properties are constructed
