Photoelectron-Auger electron coincidence spectroscopy is a powerful tool for the investigation of Auger decay processes with different core-ionized intermediate states. In this paper we describe an investigation into the Auger decay of the O-2 molecule, with the purpose of bringing new insight into the dynamics of the core hole decay mechanism. Using a novel experimental approach to measuring such

The purpose of the thesis is to measure how bias impacts loan officers’ decision-making upon assessing mortgage applications and the level of noise embedded within the process. Quantitative data were collected from 15 loan officers working at three different branches at Handelsbanken answering a questionnaire based on fictional mortgage applications. The statistical analysis used an unpaired t-tes

Syftet med uppsatsen är att undersöka vad framgång är i dagens skandinaviska elitfotbollsklubbar och vilka strategier som är användbara för att uppnå denna. Uppsatsen ämnar således belysa och klargöra de viktigaste aspekterna i en lyckad strategi inom en modern skandinavisk fotbollsklubb. Med denna kunskap har vi för avsikt att återge en bild över hur en elitfotbollsklubb strategiskt bör organiser

The Big Butterfly Count reported its worst results in 14 years of monitoring UK species.

Att studera den ekonomiska utvecklingen i det globala syd ur ett långsiktigt perspektiv blir allt viktigare i en samtid av globalisering, integration och konvergens. Detta har relevans för både det globala nord och de akademiska organisationer i Afrika, Asien och Latinamerika som vuxit fram och håller på att utvecklas.The study of economic development in the Global South from a long-term perspective is of increasing importance in the current era of globalization, integration and convergence. This applies both in the Global North and for the growing academic communities in Africa, Asia and Latin America.

Medicinen är ett kunskapsfält med humanistisk förankring. Vid Enheten för medicinens historia är målet att nå ökad förståelse för hur den medicinska vetenskapen tagit form över tid och fördjupad insikt kring det sociala sammanhang medicinen verkar i. Genom sin tillhörighet i ämnesområdet Medicinsk humaniora gränsar verksamheten till flera andra akademiska discipliner, såsom idé- och lärdomshistori

While the original ideals of sport were rooted primarily in recreation and physical competition, they have since long been complemented, potentially even overshadowed, by elements of entertainment and commercialization. At the center of professional sports stand sports governing bodies, typically or- ganized as non-profit organizations, which are responsible for regulating their respective discipl

Human beings make errors and that is nothing that we can avoid completely. We can however lower the risk of people doing wrong in situations where, for example, medical devices are used. The overall objective of the research presented in this paper is to investigate how usability testing can contribute to software risk management process in the medical device domain. Experience has been collected

Web accessibility has become increasingly important to ensure all people can benefit from the information and services available on the web. Despite the multiple international web accessibility standards, studies have revealed a low compliance rate by organizations globally. This study emphasizes that the successful incorporation of Web accessibility in an organization requires a holistic vision t

Background: A person-centred and recovery-oriented approach is an integral part of modern mental health services founded on the experiential knowledge of service users. Their reflections as experts, grounded in their unique experience as service users, play a significant role in developing and improving the existing care. Experiential knowledge is therefore a means to enhance the relevance of rese

With the introduction of new demands targeting net-zero energy and net zero-carbon buildings and neighbourhoods on a national level in Sweden and internationally, balancing the requirements of daylight and energy is becoming more important in the design process. In order to succeed, an effective strategy needs to be defined for utilising the right digital tools and metrics for the two factors at d

The utilisation of biomass instead of fossil resources is an important alternative for the transition into a sustainable society. Biomass, owing to its primary constituents—cellulose, hemicelluloses and lignin—has the potential to replace many products that are produced from fossil resources today, including plastics, textile fibres and fuels. To fully exploit this potential, all of the components
