Purpose The purpose of this thesis is to study if and how institutional investors have any impact on shareholder value and operating performance on the Swedish market. The tested explanatory variables are institutional investors grouped in different ways depending on their attributes, firm size, board size and board structure, leverage, firm size, share turnover and stock volatility. Theoretical
Adverse consequences of global climate change increasingly affect society and economic performance. Climate finance structure supports mitigation and adaptation actions that address climate change. Developing economies are adopting climate adaptation measures to cope with the current climate situation and simultaneously promote sustainable development. The interrelation between climate adaptation
Home care has been associated with time pressure and extensive waiting times, affecting care users’ ability to manage their daily activities. In 2023, one Swedish municipality started offering ‘video visits’ to complement home visits. However, little is known about the implications of this type of digital technology for care users’ waiting experiences. This article aims to understand how care user
The purpose of this study was to obtain more knowledge of the parameters affecting the production of 45Ti utilizing the nuclear reaction 45Sc(p,n) 45Ti. Titanium-45 decays by +-decay and E.C. to 45Sc with a half-life of 3,08 h. These properties make the radionuclide suitable for positron emission tomography (PET).The work was carried out at the Department of Physics in Lund using the V
In order to build an efficient transportation system of the future, public transport needs to be an attractive alternative offering a high quality travel experience. Future digital information systems for public buses will enrich the travelers experience by delivering relevant content - accurately on the right time and place. In this master thesis, design and implementation of an improved bus posi
This paper presents a selection of epigraphic documents dispersed over three quarry faces (C11–C13) in the Main Quarry (Q34) at Gebel el-Silsila’s east bank, dating from the reign of the Emperor Augustus. The aim is to describe and decipher the various marks and depictions, and to translate the Demotic and Greek texts, in order to determine for what structure the stone from the quarry was intendedThis paper presents a selection of epigraphic documents dispersed over three quarry faces (C11–C13) in the Main Quarry (Q34) at Gebel el-Silsila’s east bank, dating from the reign of the Emperor Augustus.

By modeling of an enzymatic reaction for pharmaceutical production it is possible to get a better understand the mechanism of the enzymatic reaction, and to find an optimal condition for the process step. The enzyme in question is enteropeptidase that cleaves proteins by hy-drolysis. Enteropeptidase can cleave at many different cleaving sites, if the amino acid Argi-nine or Lysine is at the first
Ultrashort laser pulses play an important role in many applications in science and technology, from attosecond science to time resolved spectroscopy and material processing. For applications of ultrashort laser pulses, it requires a complete characterization of the electric field of the pulse, which includes both phase and amplitude of the electric field. The characterization of ultrashort laser p
This study focuses on quantitative long-term effects of SupplementalInstruction (SI) in terms of graduation and dropout rates. One of the main aimsof SI is to introduce students to effective study strategies and techniques. If SIis introduced at an early stage for new students in higher education, it shouldtherefore be expected that this action will promote timely graduation. This hasalso been ind
Although thinking double thoughts and living dual lives are not specifically Iranian traits, Iranians have, nevertheless, become more susceptible to them for historical reasons, which may be traced back to when Persians became Muslims. The gradual normalization of double‐thinking over the centuries has given rise to social and political patterns of behavior and institutional arrangements which osc

The group B streptococcus (GBS) is the most important cause of life-threatening bacterial infections in newborn infants. Protective immunity to GBS infection is elicited by several surface proteins, one of which, the beta protein, is known to bind human IgA-Fc. Here, we show that the beta protein also binds human factor H (FH), a negative regulator of complement activation. Absorption experiments
Through the national innovation program Viable Cities, the City of Malmö and the City of Lund in the Region Skåne of southern Sweden have recently undertaken a mission to become climate-neutral by 2030, requiring the commitment and participation of the entire local, urban system in the pursuit and uptake of bottom-up, radical solutions. While small- and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) make up the
The development of cognitive robots in ROS still lacks the support of some key components: a knowledge integration framework and a framework for autonomous mission execution. In this research chapter, we will discuss our skill-based platform SkiROS, that was developed on top of ROS in order to organize robot knowledge and its behavior. We will show how SkiROS offers the possibility to integrate diThe development of cognitive robots in ROS still lacks the support of some key components: a knowledge integration framework and a framework for autonomous mission execution.
