The Multipole Injection Kicker (MIK) installed in the 3 GeV ring of MAX IV, is a success story in the use of a non-linear field device ensuring an almost transparent injection into the first ever built fourth-generation storage ring. Reducing the transient stored beam perturbations during top-up injections is particularly relevant for such machines operating at emittances in the regime of few hund
Sedan lagen om anställningsskydd trädde i kraft har kravet på saklig grund för uppsägning varit ett återkommande debatterat ämne inom arbetsrätten. Att arbetsgivaren behöver saklig grund när denne säger upp en arbetstagare är kanske inte så konstigt. Att en arbetsgivare kan behöva saklig grund när arbetstagaren säger upp sig själv är däremot ett mer svårgreppbart koncept. En uppsägning som formellThe title of my thesis is “Provoked Dismissals – on the Application of Material and Procedural Rules Governing this Legal Concept”. Since the Swedish Law of Employment Protection came into force, the requirement of proper cause for dismissal has been a widely discussed topic within the field of labour law. That an employer needs proper cause when dismissing an employee is perhaps not surprising. H
Explaining the maintenance of genetic variation in fitness-related traits within populations is a fundamental challenge in ecology and evolutionary biology. Frequency-dependent selection (FDS) is one mechanism that can maintain such variation, especially when selection favours rare variants (negative FDS). However, our general knowledge about the occurrence of FDS, its strength and direction remai
It has been suggested that the new (and controversial) endoscopic techniques are more successful than standard operation for the preservation of the ligamentous pulley function across the carpal tunnel and for the separation of the gliding structures from the subcutaneous tissues after release of the carpal ligament in carpal tunnel syndrome. We therefore decided to study the possible importance o
The main goals of SI are usually to improve learning and student performance as well as increasing retention. The achievement of these goals are evaluated based on linking SI attendance with retention and student results (student performance is here often seen as a proxy for learning). However, the objectives with introducing an SI-program at a higher education institute is often so much more than
Question: How does reproductive timing in annual social insects evolve under intraspecific exploitation competition and in response to a changing environment? The latter includes shifts in resource abundance, mortality, season length, and resource peak timing, factors often associated with climate change. Background: Climate and land use are changing. Evolutionary ecology must learn to predict how
Ice observations were made in the Rane River 1974-1978. Observations of formation of ice, growth of ice, critical velocities, hydrodynamic stability, supercooled water, ice production in rapids and breakup were theoretically analyzed. Depending on the water velocity an ice cover formed after 40-100 negative °C-degree-days. The growth of ice took place at a static growth when the water velocity was
With only a few exceptions, the historical study of individual-level correlates of child mortality in the United States has been limited to the period surrounding the turn of the twentieth century, when children ever born and children surviving data collected by the 1900 and 1910 censuses allow indirect estimation of child mortality. The recent release of linked census data, such as the IPUMS MLP
Personal growth as a process remains vaguely understood. We introduce the Personal Growth Process (PGP) model based on Carl Rogers’s organismic valuing process (OVP). The PGP model explains personal growth as a sociocognitive embodied process whereby an individual undergoes multiple mental shifts that make up an ongoing, fluctuating process over the long term, starting from a place of psychologica
Diversification of anaerobic digestion into higher value products, namely volatile fatty acids (VFAs), is receiving interest. One of the biggest challenges with this is recovery of the VFAs. Membrane extraction can be used, and a novel process configuration using a non-porous silicone membrane and water for an extractant is proposed here. This process would enable the reduction in the number of d
This article explores Christian education and learning in the Church of Sweden and the Church of Norway today. Given the impact of major changes in society and in school curricula over the last fifty years, the conditions of this work are changing. What major challenges are identified today? How have these two churches responded to the new circumstances? The Church of Norway has developed a system
Vapor–solid–solid (VSS) growth of III-V semiconductor nanowires (NWs) has long been considered an alternative for the vapor–liquid–solid (VLS) growth mode, with the potential to avoid the incorporation of deep-level impurities into semiconductors and to form compositionally abrupt interfaces. Most research however indicates that VSS growth has a much lower growth rate than observed in the VLS grow
Background: Impaired gait can precede dementia. The associations between gait parameters and brain pathologies are therefore of interest. Objective: To explore how different brain pathologies (i.e., vascular and Alzheimer's) are associated with specific gait parameters from various gait components in persons with mild cognitive impairment (MCI), who have an increased risk of developing dementia. M
In Radiant Exposures the artist introduces an exhibition architecture with two angled walls that steers visitors through the space and also provides a structure in which Barba’s films are screened and the artist’s sculptural works installed in a carefully orchestrated setting. Yet, signaling the importance of both film and sound as major themes in Rosa Barba’s practice, visitors will encounter the
Basis pursuit (BP), basis pursuit deNoising (BPDN), and least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) are popular methods for identifying important predictors in the high-dimensional linear regression model (Formula presented.). By definition, when (Formula presented.), BP uniquely recovers (Formula presented.) when (Formula presented.) and (Formula presented.) implies (Formula presented
