Popular Abstract in Swedish Conodonter är en numera utdöd grupp havslevande djur vars systematiska ställning länge varit föremål för debatt. De var i det längsta kända enbart genom sina millimeterstora, kalciumfosfatiska element, vilka vi idag vet satt i djurens munhåla. Sådana conodontelement beskrevs för första gången 1856 av Christian Heinrich Pander, men det skulle dröja närmare 130 år innan dThis thesis deals with conodont biostratigraphy and palaeoecology in the Darriwilian (Middle Ordovician) of Baltoscandia, with focus on limestone strata showing traces of the ~ 470 Ma L-chondrite parent body break-up. The evidence for this cosmic event includes abundant centimeter to decimeter-sized fossil meteorites and elevated levels of sediment-dispersed extraterrestrial L-type chromite found

Intellectual property is a very important type of asset in today’s business world. Since business in the Western World grows increasingly based and dependent on know-how and technological development, intangible assets such as trademarks, copyrights and patents plausibly represent greater economic value to economic actors here than other, physical, assets do. Although it is comparatively unknown

Som en del av en växande trend om en mer hållbar omvärld ställs det allt högre krav på företags ansvar för både miljön och mänskliga rättigheter. Före-tagens arbete med har dock hittills byggt på frivillighet, med OECD:s riktlinjer för multinationella företag och FN:s vägledande principer för företag och mänskliga rättigheter som grundläggande ramverk. EU-kommissionen lämnade i februari år 2022 eAs part of a growing trend towards a more sustainable environment, the demands on corporate responsibility for the environment and human rights are increasing. However, corporate responsibility has so far been based on voluntariness, with the OECD’s guidelines for multinational enterprises and the UN’s guiding principles for business and human rights as the basic frame-work. In February 2022 the E

Svensk rätt innehåller ingen lagstadgad rätt till abandonering, en rättsfigur som innebär att konkursboet avstår från viss egendom och därmed även undgår de rättsliga förpliktelser kopplade till den egendomen. HD har dock genom rättsfallet NJA 2004 s. 777 slagit fast att abandonering kan utgöra en försvarlig förvaltningsåtgärd från konkursförvaltarens sida och därmed vara godtagbart. Detta prejudiSwedish law does not have a statutory provision regarding abandonment (UK: disclaimer of onerous property), the right for a bankruptcy estate to disown property with a legally binding effect, meaning that the estate does not answer to any obligations connected to the disowned property. However, The Swedish Supreme Court has in its ruling NJA 2004 s. 777 established that a trustee’s decision to aba

This thesis investigates whether national amnesties for war crimes constitute an inadmissibility ground for a case in the International Criminal Court (hereinafter the ICC). The essence of this problem lies in the conflict between State sovereignty and international cooperation in the fight against impunity for war crimes and consequently between bilateral obligations and obligations erga omnes. M

Sammanfattning Svensk polis saknade länge ett uttalat lagstöd för rätten att använda våld. De gavs i äldre lagstiftning en befogenhet att bruka nödvändigt våld för att avvärja ett livsfarligt angrepp på sig själv eller någon annan. Däremot förelåg dem ingen rätt att vid ett ingripande ta till våld. Svensk polis ska alltid försöka hitta andra utvägar än våld för att lösa en uppgift inom ramen för Summary Swedish police lacked for a long period of time an explicit legal basis for the right to use force. They were in an older legislative powered to operate necessary force to repel a life threatening situation on himself or anyone else. However, the police had no given right to take on violence due to an intervention. Swedish police should always try to find other ways than violence to solve

Det faktum att våld i nära relationer oftast utspelar sig inom hemmets fyra väggar gör att det följer svårigheter. Bristen på vittnen gör det besvärligt att få gärningsmannen lagförd. I en tredjedel av alla fall med våld mot kvinnor i hemmet bevittnar dock barn brottet. Trots detta förhörs barn som vittne endast i 18 % av dessa fall. Förundersökningen läggs ofta ner eftersom tillräckliga bevis intThe fact that violence in intimate relationships most often takes place in someone’s home, makes it difficult to prosecute the perpetrator in lack of witnesses. In one third of the cases regarding violence against women in intimate relationships, children are witnesses. Despite this, children are interrogated only in 18 % of these cases. The preliminary investigation is often closed because of the

The steadily increasing prevalence of diabetes constitutes a major health problem. By the year 2025, the prevalence of diabetes is estimated to be as high as 5.4 %. This is to be compared with reports from Swedish coronary care units, which suggest that as many as 66 % of the patients admitted in fact have previously undiagnosed diabetes or pre-diabetes (impaired glucose tolerance) 1. Cardiovascul

Igenom att undersöka hur olika professiThe main objective of the research presented was to gain an understanding of how the dynamics between professionals, tools and objectives work in an operating unit in order to obtain knowledge useful when designing the operating unit of the future with emphasis on the work environment, effectiveness and patient safety. By investigating how different professions in the operating theatre view their

Abstract - Vol. I In this Volume of the thesis, which consists of two volumes, a risk analysis framework for application in the maritime transport system of packaged dangerous goods (PDG) is presented. In many countries, dangerous goods risks have been ranked high among public concerns. Such concerns are mainly due to the increasing volume of dangerous goods, human safety and health and environme

Currently, over 100 high-volume chemicals have been classified as endocrine disrupters. One of these is nonylphenol, which was used as the model compound in this study. This substance originates mainly from the degradation of non-ionic surfactants (nonylphenol ethoxylates) which are widely used in industrial and domestic applications. Hence, nonylphenol is widespread in the environment. Under anae

Aim: To value the importance of research on avian migration for the development and current status of Spanish ornithology. Results and Conclusions: Avian migration has always been an outstanding field in ornithology. This assertion is particularly true in Spain, as we illustrate here by discussing the contribution of migration research to both the scientific and historical development of Spanish o

This thesis concerns the experimental study of mixing and flow characteristic in turbulent circular impinging jets without and with jet orifice manipulators (i.e. passive-fixed perturbations atthe nozzle exit), without and with swirl. The goal of the studies is to understand the basic mechanisms that control the mixing processes in turbulent impinging jets. The applications of such mixing processe

Popular Abstract in Swedish I den här avhandlingen studeras de elektriska egenskaperna hos nanotrådar av halvledarmaterial. En halvledare är ett mellanting av en ledare och en isolator, där den elektriska ledningsförmågan kan styras både genom att förorena materialet med andra ämnen och genom att påverka materialet med ett elektriskt fält. I princip all modern elektronik bygger på komponenter av hThis thesis focuses on electron transport in semiconductor InAs/InP and InSb nanowire quantum devices. However, first the temperature dependence of classical charge transport in InSb nanowire field-effect transistors, FETs, is characterized, using InAs nanowire FETs as a reference. We find that the InSb FETs, in the same way as InAs FETs, are n-type with good current saturation and low voltage ope

Popular Abstract in Swedish Reaktiva syreföreningar s.k. ROS uppstår naturligt i den syrerelaterade metabolismen eller i andra processer och den orsakar skador på essentiella föreningar i cellen såsom DNA, proteiner och fetter. Denna oxidation ligger till grund för många allvarliga sjukdomar hos människor som t.ex. viss typ av cancer och Alzheimers och man tror även att den ligger bakom andra åkomReactive oxygen species (ROS) consisting of various oxygen-based free radicals as well as other reactive non-radical species produced in O2-related metabolism or through other processes are involved in the oxidation of such vital biomolecules as DNA, proteins and lipids. The types of oxidation represented here are known to cause many different diseases and disorders in human beings, such as cancer

A total of 16 global chemistry transport models and general circulation models have participated in this study; 14 models have been evaluated with regard to their ability to reproduce the near-surface observed number concentration of aerosol particles and cloud condensation nuclei (CCN), as well as derived cloud droplet number concentration (CDNC). Model results for the period 2011-2015 are compar

Bile acids (BA) are formed from cholesterol in the liver and, apart from being part of fat digestion, they also act as signalling molecules in several health-related physiological processes. BA composition is regulated by gut microbiota as well as dietary fibre (DF) and fat in the diet. This thesis describes how different types of DF and fat levels, can alter BA composition in the caecum/faeces an

This article analyzes the development of gender awareness in Islamic education in Indonesia and Pakistan in general, and the inclusion of a gender perspective in particular. The current situation in Islamic education is a result of their larger national contexts, not least concerning the factors focused upon in this study – educational reform, intellectual milieu, female student enrollment, politi

Diversification of forest industry activites into transport fuels is important for Swedish climate and energy policy goal achievement, and biofuel proponents also claim that it is important for Swedish forest industry competitiveness. There is significant ongoing research effort on biofuels for road transport and extensive experimentation on several technical platforms has been conducted. These di

I denna rapport redovisas populationstrender för 175 svenska fågelarter för åren 1975–2010. Fåglarna har räknats på vintern och på sommaren enligt strikt standardiserade metoder. Sommar- respektive vinterpunktrutter har räknats sedan 1975, i huvudsak i södra Sverige. Standardrutterna räknas också på sommaren men täcker hela Sverige. De har räknats sedan 1996. Vintern 2009/2010 räknades nästan 300 We present the results of the Swedish Bird Survey, run by the Department of Biology, Lund University, as a part of the National Monitoring Programme of the Swedish Environmental Protection Agency. The results for 2010 include data from 622 winter point count routes in 2009/2010 (35th winter), of which 281 were carried out during the Christmas/New Year count and 262 summer point count routes (36th
