The purpose of this thesis was to implement an alternative method to calculate the overlap function, which describe to what extent two protons overlap with each other spatially, into PYTHIA8 in order to determine how it affected the average number of multiparton interactions. The new overlap function is based on an explicit impact parameter picture, whereas PYTHIA8s overlap function uses an implic

Purpose: By studying different sets of data divided by type of economic political context, this thesis investigates if the usage of accounts differs between countries. In more specific, the purpose of this thesis is to investigate if the use of accounts in the CEO letters of Swedish-, UK- and German-based companies differ as a result of having businesses in different political economies. Theoreti
In 2015 Jonatan Bohr Brask et al. showed that steady-state entanglement could be generated in two interacting qubits incoherently coupled to thermal baths of different temperatures [1]. This thesis is an attempt to re-evaluate their findings with the hope that a slightly different approach and system can help further our understanding of this not yet well understood phenomena.

Thesis purpose: The aim of this study is to identify enablers and constraints for consumers to adopt food waste reduction apps. Consequently, it contributes to the field of innovation diffusion and, importantly, consumer adoption of technological innovations. Methodology: This exploratory study uses qualitative methods to investigate consumer values, expectations and experiences as the main unit
Fitnesskulturen växte fram i USA och blomstrade under 1970-talet men har sedan dess spridit sig över hela världen. Idag hålls tävlingar och evenemang inom fitness i Sverige och fitnessbranschen växer sig större. Användningen av dopingpreparat förekommer i alla sporter och även inom fitnessbranschen. Den tidigare forskningen visar på studier som tar upp dopingpreparat som problem men i kontexten fi
Följande studie syftade till att undersöka attityder till AI-baserad rekrytering samt finna skillnader mellan personlighetsfaktorer och prestationsbaserad självkänsla i relation till tillit till AI-baserad rekrytering. Frågeställningen som studien byggde på var följande: Finns det en skillnad i tillit till AI-baserad rekrytering kopplad till en specifik personlighetsfaktor? Studien genomfördes med

A common belief is that left-wing parties tend to use their influence to expand the public sector by increasing taxes – but is this belief supported by data? This study aims to find the causal effect of having left-wing majority and left-wing rule on a set of economic and policy outcomes by using panel data of Swedish local governments between 1995 and 2018. A regression discontinuity design is ap

We live in a world built on consumerist values and a spatial rationale of capital accumulation. This modern society has led to architecture thriving through super consumption and super production ultimately leading to the generic. Cities and spaces that were usually rich in variation and texture have now become an architectural melting pot. Architecture has become smooth, simplified and reduced to
The recovery of ‘waste heat’ from industrial and urban processes could meet a significant share of heating demands in urban and semi-urban areas. Replacing conventional heat sources in district heating (DH) systems with recovered heat could decrease primary energy inputs in a sector that globally relies to 90% on fossil fuels. Yet, despite the environmental, social, and economic benefits of waste
Syftet med denna uppsats har varit att analysera hur könsnormer i samhället får reella konsekvenser för manliga brottsoffer och huruvida detta ligger i linje med teorier om offer och maskulinitet. Två redan utförda intervjuer har analyserats och två intervjuer har genomförts som en del av denna studie, där fokus för analys har legat på manliga offers berättelser om deras upplevelser och hur deras
Increasing global interconnectivity, in terms of our economies, ecological systems and population dynamics, can reduce or amplify the risks posed by climate change. The ongoing Coronavirus 2019 crisis demonstrates how rapidly disasters and risks can cascade and escalate across countries to become a shared problem globally. Climate change impacts are increasingly being recognised not only as a nati
Wildfires pose a serious threat to communities in different parts of the world, mostly in regions with a warmer climate. Due to the increased urbanization next to the forest and climate change, they are currently an issue to be addressed also in other parts of the world. The purpose of this thesis is to provide a first step in the direction of creating a holistic Vulnerability Assessment Method (V

In peritoneal dialysis ultrapure water used is produced from tap water by using several filter cartridges in series. One of the cartridges is an ion exchange filter removing cations and anions by either reverse osmosis membrane or chemical ion exchange resin. The ion exchange filter that is investigated in this thesis is a chemical ion exchange filter. The current chemical ion exchange system has
