A data set of adaptive optics images has been analyzed in order to study the effects of angular anisoplanatism and to characterize Mauna Kea nighttime turbulence. The data set consists of a selection of Galactic center images obtained with the adaptive optics instrument Hokupa'a and the near-infrared camera QUIRC on the Gemini-North 8 m telescope. Using the Strehl ratio and the FWHM as tracers for
This paper aims to support the decision-making tasks regarding the integration of packaging development into product development. Based on the study of the interactions of the product and packaging during the whole product life cycle, a set of packaging-related factors was extracted and mapped to a general product development model, which at a strategic level can be used to define an integrated pr
Popular Abstract in Swedish Avhandlingen består av tre essäer som behandlar effekterna av inkomplett information i de finansiella marknaderna. Av dessa essäer är två teoretiska och en är huvudsakligen empirisk. Samtliga essäer undersöker effekterna av parameterosäkerhet, och de använder sig av kontinuerliga modeller. Den första essän, "The Effect of Information Quality on Optimal Portfolio ChoiceThis thesis consists of three essays on incomplete information in financial markets, two of which are theoretical, and one that is mainly of an empirical nature. All three essays concern parameter uncertainty, and they employ a continuous-time framework. The first essay, "The Effect of Information Quality on Optimal Portfolio Choice," analyzes the portfolio choices made by three types of agents,

This article examines how Swedish social democratic women used the enactment of universal suffrage in 1919/1921 as an argument to gain support for separate organising. The article also analyses the extent to which the Swedish National Federation of Social Democratic Women, founded in 1920, used direct (personal) and indirect (media) channels for voter communication. Both scarce economic resources
The aim of this paper is to examine whether the theory of cosmopolitan democracy provides a satisfactory solution to the boundary problem in democratic theory. I argue that David Held's version of cosmopolitan democracy rests on two incompatible principles: the all-affected principle and the all-inclusive principle. However, the theory does not need to presuppose both these principles; it req
This thesis tries to create a wider understanding for the complexity of friction in peacekeeping interventions. By connecting the concepts of friction and hybridity as well as the local and the international in a theoretical framework the thesis tries to concrete the complexity of peace processes. By applying the framework upon the UN peacekeeping mission MONUC in the Democratic Republic of the Co
We are developing a prototype system for simultaneous digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT) and mechanical imaging (MI). MI maps the local pressure distribution during clinical exams, to distinguish breast abnormalities from the normal tissue. Both DBT alone, and MI when combined with digital mammography, have demonstrated the ability to reduce false positives; however, the benefit of combining DBT w
• AimThe aim of this study is to unravel the potential of atmospheric thinking for place brand communication research. As such, it explores how place branding can be understood as a process of communicatively crafting ‘strategic atmospheres’, namely as a process of constituting specific affective and sensory relatings to urban space. • Theoretical framework The theoretical argument is informed by
The practice of using quantitative risk assessments (QRAs) for managing risks in land-use planning varies between countries. Some regulatory regimes are highly prescriptive in terms of explicit requirements on methodology, assumptions, modelling tools, input data, risk criteria, etc. Others require risk analyses to support decision-making without regulating the details. The present study seeks to
Solen är den primära källan för jordens klimatsystem, som driver den atmosfäriska och oceana cirkulationen. Förutom att solens varierande instrålning påverkan jordens klimat, så bestämmer instrålningen även den atmosfäriska produktionen av kosmogena partiklar (t. ex. 10Be, 14C, 36Cl) som sedan lagras i diverse klimatarkiv på jorden. Förändringar i solinstrålningen över tid kan därför undersökas ocThe Sun is the primary source for Earth’s climate system. Its fluctuations in irradiance are also known to have an impact on climate. In addition, changes in solar activity modulate the atmospheric production rates of cosmogenic radionuclides (e.g. 10Be, 14C, 36Cl) that all eventually deposit to different environmental archives. The signal of the changing solar activity through time can thus be re
