Stray light is known as strong interference in spectroscopic measurements. With the creation of a novel kind of customized fibers, manufactured by the fiber optics group in Jena, Germany, a general experimental solution to this problem is possible. This thesis work is mainly aiming at testing and demonstrating how these fibers work for stray light suppression and their efficiency in measuring diff

Since 1st of June 2016, an amortisation requirement in Sweden applies, which means that new mortgages will be amortised to 50 percent of the value of the housing price. This was introduced when the Swedish Financial Supervisory Authority (Finansinspektionen) considered that there was a need to dampen the aggregated debt in Sweden and the purpose of the requirement was to increase household resista

Sammanfattning Att problem kan uppstå i avtalsrelationer förefaller således vara ett vanligt förekommande i flertalet avtalsförhållanden. Detta kan antingen bero på förhållanden som avtalsparterna inte har förutsett vid avtalets ingående, eller till följd av att händelserna utvecklat sig annorlunda än vad avtalsparterna har räknat med. Att som avtalspart i samband med att avtal ingås kunna beaktaSummary Problems arising in contractual relationships appear to be a common occurrence in most contractual relationships. This can either be due to the facts which the parties have not foreseen at the conclusion of the contract, or a result of a development of events differently from what the parties have expected. To be able to take into account all possible relevant circumstances at the conclus

Med framväxten av teknologin och internet blir det allt vanligare och lättare att sprida, samla in och behandla information. Organisationer använder sedan informationsinsamlingen till sin egen nytta exempelvis i marknadsföringssyfte genom att analysera individers beteenden utifrån informationen de lämnar ifrån sig. Den personliga integriteten har bland annat blivit ifrågasatt då många individer in

Uppsatsen undersöker om hållbarhet påverkar aktieportföljsavkastning. Genom att skapa tre diversifierade portföljer med Sveriges 116 största publika aktiebolag kategoriserade efter hållbarhetsmått - jämförs avkastningar mellan portföljerna och ett marknadsindex. Data som används baseras på månadsbasis över tioårsperioden 2007–2016. Baserat på avkastningarna beräknas riskjusterade avkastningsmått f

Den inre marknaden i EU karaktäriseras av ett antal friheter. Onlinespel faller under etableringsfrihet och friheten att tillhandahålla tjänster. Medlemsstaterna har med stöd av ett fördragsundantag, tenderat att vilja förbehålla sig rätten att erbjuda speltjänster inom respektive land. Internets framfart har dock lett till ett paradigmskifte på spelområdet där nu öppnare licenssystem ersätter monThe European internal market is characterised by a number of freedoms. Online gambling is the subject of the freedom of establishment and freedom to provide services. Member states tend to invoke an exception of the free movement, granting them exclusive rights to provide gambling services. The growth of the internet and its impact on the gambling industry has however created a shift in paradigm.

Kommuner ställs inför en stor förändring när verksamheten ska digitaliseras. För att stödja e- förvaltningsutveckling och digitalisering förespråkas Enterprise Architecture (EA) vara ett verktyg för att möjliggöra integration av äldre system, skapa interoperabilitet och minska kostnaderna kopplade till systemutveckling via återanvändning av komponenter. Relaterat till detta finns flera utmaningar

Prisons encourage criminal activity and have negative impacts on sentenced individuals according to studies. Meanwhile the three largest political parties in Sweden work towards implementing tougher sentences. The three largest parties have in common their position on law enforcement which disputes what the research is saying and as a consequence, the objective of achieving less criminal activity

Som barnkörledare har jag tänkt på vad barnen egentligen förstår av dirigering. Ibland reagerar barnen på alla gester och ibland inte på några. Som yrkesverksamma körledare, dirigenter eller pedagoger kan vi dra nytta av att veta vad barnen faktiskt tar till sig och intressant vilken information barn i barnkör får ut av dirigering. Dessutom är det intressant att veta hur dirigenter arbetar för attAs a children’s choir conductor, I have thought about what the children really understand about the conducting. Sometimes the children are with me in the gestures and sometimes not. As a professional conductor, choir leader or pedagogue youcan take advantage of knowing what the children actually understand and do not understand. What information do children understand when they are conducted? And

The purpose of this study is to compare the different short-term interest rate models, and to identify the better model within multiple countries. We selected three different types of data from the United States, the United Kingdom, and New Zealand. We compare the models with the historical data within these three countries, and figure out whether different countries could have their own best mode

Tanken om en skola för alla har satt sig. Delaktiga under ett och samma tak, med samma möjligheter. Trots detta finns en ganska stor grupp av elever som får underkänt i ett eller flera ämnen. En del elever kan misstänkas vara svagbegåvade, d.v.s. i den nedre delen av intelligensskalan, dock inom ramen för vad som anses vara normalt. Det sociokulturella perspektivet på inlärning och utveckling tar

Studien utfördes i Lunds studentliv och det som undersöktes i studien var vilka personligheter enligt Big five teorin som hade mer eller mindre benägenhet att utveckla ett riskbeteende kring alkoholkonsumtion, att ha destruktiva dryckesmotiv. Sociala strukturer och press, men även fysiska och kognitiva konsekvenser av alkoholkonsumtion var relevant och betydelsefullt för våra hypoteser och slutsatThis study examined which of the Big five theory personality traits that had more or less inclination to develop a risk behavior connected to alcohol consumption, during the time as a student at Lunds University. Social structures and pressures, but also the physical and cognitive consequences of alcohol consumption were relevant and significant for our hypotheses and conclusions. The study result

This thesis explores the way how far-right populist movements manifest themselves through social media. It approaches the problem by taking a political psychology perspective of ontological security which informs the behavioural need of an individual and groups to search for stable identity narratives to create a secure feeling of biographical continuity. The theoretical assumptions further incorp

This study examines the dividend announcement effect on the common stock price by a signaling hypothesis approach on the Stockholm Stock Exchange. The event study shows a positive significant cumulative average abnormal return (CAAR) of 1,54 % for positive dividend announcement in the analyst model. For negative- and neutral announcement, the reaction is non-significant. Although, negative dividen

In the regulation of Trafikverket there is many technical requirements that the railway facility should face. The reason for its existence is to create a standardized facility with well balanced requirements that includes implementation and management. But still, sometimes there is a need for violating some requirements, for example when the motive of the requirements are not holding against the m

The punctuality of passenger transport within the Swedish railroad network has been featured heavily in Swedish media. A study done by the European Commission proclaim that the levels of dissatisfaction towards the railroad system is among the top within Europe. The punctuality is strongly connected to faults related to railroad switches, which stands for a quarter of total delays. The switches wi

Modern cars have a wide range of safety features to ensure that the driving is as safe as possible. One of these safety features is called electronic stability control, often abbreviated as E.S.C. The goal of the E.S.C. is to make sure that the car stays on the road even under dangerous circumstances such as a slippery road or the driver committing mistakes. During this project, a simulation progr
