The HST has provided visual images of the universe of unprecedented clarity and sensitivity. It is less widely known that the HST/GHRS has provided equally breathtaking views of a different kind Of "universe" - a "spectroscopic universe". Nowhere is this better seen than in the extraordinarily complex and beautiful ultraviolet spectrum of the ultra-sharp-lined, non-magnetic, chemically peculiar (C
This chapter begins with the assumption that political organisations are stable institutions which contain biases to benefit certain issues and actors in society. The European Union’s Fifth Environmental Action Programme was finally adopted by the Council in February of 1993. The programme is entitled Toward Sustainability and will guide the European Union’s environmental legislation into the next
Abundances for the elements W, Os, and Bi are presented for the HgMn star chi Lupi, based upon GHRS echelle-mode spectra and a synthetic spectrum analysis. The tungsten abundance is consistent with a solar-system value while the osmium and bismuth abundances reflect enhancements. With these new data we are able to quantitatively define an abundance peak within the element range Z = 74 through 83.
We have experimentally studied the conditions for acoustic particle focusing inside aqueous droplets in two-phase-systems, and confirmed our findings by theoretical analysis. The results show that the acoustic properties of the two fluids have to be matched to achieve strong acoustic resonance and focusing in the system.
We derive an expression for the acoustic force density acting on an inhomogeneous fluid with a continuous spatial variation in density and compressibility. A key prediction of our theory, validated by confocal imaging in an acoustofluidic microchip, is that inhomogeneous fluid configurations can be stabilized in the presence of destabilizing forces due to gravity or acoustic streaming flows.
This abstract reports a novel acoustofluidic method to measure the hematocrit level of a whole blood sample within 20 seconds. The method is substantially faster than conventional centrifugation methods, has no moving parts and can be fully automated and integrated with further unit operations for analysis of blood samples at the point of care [1].
My focus is on aggregation of individual value rankings of alternatives to a collective value ranking. This is compared with aggregation o individual prefrences to a collective preference. While in an individual preference ranking the alternatives are ordered in accordance with one’s preferences, the order in a value ranking expresses one’s comparative evaluation of the alternatives, from the best
In this paper we outline a method for systematically addressing needs assessment (QUALISEM-PEOPLE), alongside a case study of its use within a medium sized, German company. The method was designed in order to provide guidance in analysing skill and role competences, particularly when e-learning systems are being considered for training purposes. The method proved to be successful within the compan
Several research studies have shown the importance of physical exercise. The global gym and fitness industry faced a transition from traditional gyms to virtual fitness training during the pandemic lockdowns. A proliferation of applications is available to provide different digital gym experiences. Advagym is one example that uses sensors to track and give feedback to gym goers. Sony's R&D Cen
Uppsatsen syftar till att undersöka vilken roll den gode mannen för ensamkommande barn har när barnet ifråga är föremål för tvångsomhändertagande. Uppsatsen börjar med en definition av vilka som räknas som ensamkommande barn och vilka bestämmelser som finns kring dessa. Därefter går jag igenom den gode mannens roll och uppdrag och jämför med andra gode män. Sedan går jag kort igenom parters rättigThis essay aims to investigate the role of the guardian appointed to unaccompanied minors in Sweden, especially what role they have in cases of compulsory care. The essay defines unaccompanied minors and explores what regulations there are for them and investigates the role of the guardian compared to other representatives in Swedish law. The rights of the parties in the Swedish Care of Young Pers
Syftet med den här uppsatsen är att undersöka vi-berättaren i Julie Otsukas The Buddha in the Attic utifrån Mikhail Bakhtins resonemang om heteroglossi. Begreppet heteroglossi beskriver ett språkligt fenomen som innebär att ett nationellt språk innehåller en mängd olika sociala språk. Enligt Bakhtin är förekomsten av heteroglossi även ett av de drag som särskiljer romanen från övriga litterära gen
The purpose of this thesis was to examine climate related human mobility in the Southern Africa Development Community (SADC). The adverse effect of climate change in SADC is mainly linked to increasing rainfall variability and a higher frequency or intensity of floods and droughts. These effects are a major challenge for human security. Climate change has emerged as one of the most pressing, unres
In this essay, the feminine ideals in Virginia Woolf’s To the Lighthouse, Doris Lessing’s “To Room Nineteen” and Alice Munro’s “Too Much Happiness” are analysed and compared to the ideal of the Angel in the House – an ideal that originates from Coventry Patmore’s poem The Angel in the House and was popularised by Virginia Woolf’s paper “Professions for Women”. In addition, the consequences of this
