When installing an insertion device (ID) in a storage ring the electron beam is affected. The positional displacement and angle deflection is called orbit displacement (OD) and higher order effects such as focusing of the electron beam are referred to as linear optics. The ability to perform multiple simultaneous experiments is crucial in a synchrotron light source such as MAX IV. This is impossib
The decision by the United Kingdom to exit the European Union will have significant repercussions for the global economy. The consequences of Brexit have been studied through different perspectives and methods, however there is a lack in the literature in using a regional perspective. This study thus aims to fill this gap by estimating the industrial impact of Brexit on the United Kingdom through

Published Data from the European Investment Bank and the Audiovisual Observatory in EU implies that the U.S. made Audiovisuals has dragged down European Audiovisuals' market share in EU market. Apparently, the constant situation is rising up some concerns about the future of the industry and the cultural, social and economical externalities. Considering the double nature of Audiovisuals and th
Herein we studied the processes at the liquid aqueous interface at pH 7 and 8.5 during Thermomyces lanuginosus lipase-catalyzed hydrolysis of nanosized tri-, di- and mono-olein films deposited on a planar substrate. By employing a combination of ellipsometry, QCM-D and ATR-FTIR, we were able to reveal the physical properties of the thin films at high time resolution throughout the initial hydratio
Abstract: Pagan revivalism is a growing trend in the contemporary religious landscape. Is it possible to be a neopagan without disregarding the demands of reason? While outright belief in the old gods seems out of the question, I argue that polytheism represents a live epistemic possibility, and that non-doxastic paganism is therefore a viable option. However, the rational, non-doxastic neopagan s
What is the World Bank Group? A lot of people do not know the answer to that question. Depending on who you ask - the WBG might have a neoliberal capitalist agenda or merely exists to extinct world poverty. This thesis uncovers the Swedish view of the WBG, asking and answering the main question: What is Sweden’s position on disputed areas regarding the World Bank Group? Sweden has a seemingly clos
Entrepreneurial passion (EP) has been hailed as a facilitator of venture performance,entrepreneurial skills, and psychological wellbeing. Yet, the concept is underexplored in entrepreneurship research, specifically among entrepreneurship graduates. This thesis aims to understand the influence of EP on the career path of entrepreneurship graduates by studying eight recent graduates from two Scandin
Research question: How does organizational culture, using complex adaptive systems perspective, influence problem creation process in the front end of innovation? Theoretical perspectives: Front end of innovation literature is the core subject of this thesis,focusing on problem creation process. Academic literature on organizational culture and complex adaptive systems is presented to show the re
Today, waste water treatment plants do not remove pharmaceutical residues from the water (as there are currently no regulations for wastewater treatment in regards to pharmaceuticals residues in Sweden) resulting in a high concentration of pharmaceuticals reaching the environment. The Swedish environmental protection agency have recently concluded that there is a need for advanced treatment of pha
The world under globalization is moving toward a single market, where national economies are becoming more integrated and interconnected. In this context, over the last decades, the perception of FDI positive spillovers has made developed and developing countries competing to attract foreign investors. This study analyses the determinants of FDI during the globalization process, both theoretically
A 3D finite element (FE) model of an implanted pelvis was developed as part of a project investigating an all-polymer hip resurfacing design. The model was used to compare this novel design with a metal-on-metal design in current use and a metal-on-polymer design typical of early resurfacing implants. The model included forces representing the actions of 22 muscles as well as variable cancellous b
Differential scanning calorimetry (DSc) and dynamic light scattering (DLS) were used to obtain the gel to liquid-crystalline phase transition temperature (T-m) and the apparent hydrodynamic radius (R-h) of spontaneously formed cationic vesicles of dialkyldimethylammonium bromide salts (CnH2n+1)(2)(CH3)(2)N+center dot Br-, with varying chain lengths. The preparation of cationic vesicles from aqueou
The permeability of skin to nanoparticles of titanium dioxide (TiO2) used in sunscreens as a reflector of the UV wavelengths of sunlight, was examined using nuclear microscopy techniques. Special attention was given to the permeation characteristics of these nanoparticles across the outer layers of skin, the stratum corneum, in healthy and psoriatic skin condition. Aspects that may influence the i
The atomic and electronic structure of the lattice-mismatched h-BN/Pt(111) and h-BN/Rh(111) interfaces formed by pyrolitic reactions with vaporized borazine has been studied by low-energy electron diffraction, scanning tunneling microscopy, x-ray-absorption spectroscopy, and core-level and valence-band photoemission. It has been found that on Pt(111), h-BN forms a nearly flat monolayer, insignific
