The ratio of the production cross sections for W and Z bosons in association with jets has been measured in proton-proton collisions at root s = 7 TeV with the ATLAS experiment at the Large Hadron Collider. The measurement is based on the entire 2011 dataset, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 4.6 fb(-1). Inclusive and differential cross-section ratios for massive vector bosons decaying
Excessive antibiotics use increases the risk of resistance. Previous studies have shown that the Centor score combined with Rapid Antigen Detection Test (RADT) for Group A Streptococci can reduce unnecessary antibiotic prescribing in patients with sore throat. According to the former Swedish guidelines RADT was recommended with 2-4 Centor criteria present and antibiotics were recommended if the te
New methodologies based on supercritical fluid extraction (SFE) have been developed for the determination of fat-soluble vitamins in processed foods. The results obtained so far indicate that SFE is well suited to extraction of fat-soluble vitamins from food products, although validation work is required to establish accuracy and precision. The vitamins investigated were A, E and beta-carotene, an
Four exposures of Chicxulub impact ejecta along the Mexico-Belize border have been sampled and analyzed for major and trace element abundances. The ejecta deposits consist of a lower spheroid bed, containing clay and dolomite spheroids, and an upper diamictite bed with boulders and clasts of limestone and dolomite. The matrix of both beds is composed of clay and micritic dolomite. The rare earth
CELSIUS Heavy-Ion Collision Silicon detector system (CHICSi) is a large solid angle, barrel-shaped detector system, housing up to 600 detector telescopes arranged in rotational symmetry around the beam axis. CHICSi measures charged particles and fragments from nuclear reactions. It operates at internal targets of storage rings. In order to optimize space and momentum-space coverage and minimize th
United States is one of the two countries in the world that have not ratified the convention on the rights of the child, and one of the few countries that sentences children less than 18 years to life in prison without parole. Besides this, corporal punishment is legal in all the states of USA. This essay is aimed at researching how these three factors affect one another in the American context an
The aim of this study is to examine the patient's understanding of the counselling while testing for an STI. The method was an inquiry directed to patients at two receptions, where tests for STI are made, and on the Internet for patients who made a test within the last year. The study involves 95 participants, 39 answered the inquiry directly after the test. The main results show that most par
Directive 2003/54/EC of the European Commission set the ground for an integrated and liberalized electricity market in Europe. According to the law of one price the possibility for perfect arbitrage and the absence of trade restrictions lead to homogeneous goods being priced uniformly across countries. The aim of this study is to test whether the law of one price is applicable to the electricity m
While the international community would like to think it does not happen crimes are committed by peacekeepers. There is a growing prevalence of the crimes of trafficking, rape, sexual slavery and enforced prostitution being perpetrated by peacekeepers. These are all gender-specific crimes against women. They are also the crimes that most often remain unpunished, especially when committed by peacek
In the traditional model of international law, to which however reality has never exactly corresponded, situations of armed violence fall into clearly defined categories which in their turn appertained to a certain set of rules of international law applicable. For armed conflicts between sovereign states ('war'), international humanitarian law provides a full body of rules. On the other ha
Volatile conflicts, poverty and suppression of basic human rights stemming from one's political or religious affiliations, gender and race, are some of the various reasons why thousands flee home in the hopes of finding some kind of security. As the world observes the appalling deterioration of conflicts in Western Sudan, Iraq and Haiti, we simultaneously observe neighbouring or developed coun
The thesis aims to investigate whether Sweden is able to prosecute Swedish soldiers stationed abroad for genocide, crimes against humanity and war crimes. Sweden is currently reforming its armed forces and will continue sending more soldiers to armed conflicts abroad. Sweden is also a state party to the ICC and therefore has an obligation to be the primary actor in prosecution of such crimes with
Ramdirektivet för vatten anger nya gemensamma miljömål för EU:s medlemsstater, vilka i huvudsak innebär att statusen hos Europas vatten inom 15 år från direktivets ikraftträdande skall kunna klassas som god. Direktivet innehåller också regler om administrativa arrangemang för förvaltning av vattenresurser och om instrument som skall användas för att miljömålen skall uppfyllas. Syftet med denna fra
I denna uppsats presenteras en undersökning av mognadsbegreppets rättsliga innebörd när det gäller barnets rätt att komma till tals och få sin åsikt beaktad i frågor som rör barnet självt. Principen om att hänsyn skall tas till barnets vilja i förhållande till barnets ålder och mognad har existerat länge i det svenska rättssystemet. Denna princip återfinns också i Barnkonventionen och sedan Sverig
Syftet med uppsatsen har varit att undersöka i vilken utsträckning den straffrättsliga proportionalitetsprincipen kommer till uttryck i de vårdplaner socialtjänsterna upprättar. Teorin har varit att kommunens resurser präglar de vårdplaner dess socialtjänst upprättar. Det innebär att den straffrättsliga proportionalitetsprincipen påverkas av den tilltalades hemkommuns resurser. Metoden har varit a
I dagens Sverige ges kvinnor lägre lön än män, till och med när de utför samma kvantitet arbete i arbeten som är att anse som lika eller likvärdiga. Statistik visar att i kvinnodominerade yrken och verksamheter är lönesättningen lägre än i de verksamheter som är dominerade av män - i genomsnitt har kvinnor 82 % av mäns löner. Av detta kan fastslås att de principer som styr lönesättningen konsekven
Den fråga som är föremål för utredning i föreliggande uppsats, är huruvida Europakonventionen, med utgångspunkt i Europadomstolens dom i M.C. mot Bulgarien (Bulgariendomen), förutsätter att den svenska bestämmelsen om våldtäkt revideras. Europakonventionen om de mänskliga rättigheterna gäller som svensk lag, och Sverige är skyldigt att garantera att individen kommer i åtnjutande av de fri- och rät
