Swedish archaeologists have been working in Pompeii since 2000. Our fieldwork has consisted mainly of the study of standing walls and cleared floor levels in a city block unearthed in the 19th century and of the production of a comprehensive documentation, presented in an open access publication: www.pompejiprojektet.se/insula.php. The perspective of the present paper is the insula as a whole. Its

Jordens medeltemperatur bör inte höjas mer än högst 2 grader till år 2050. Det är ett mål som Sverige har ställt sig bakom. Om vi ska lyckas med detta måste vi drastiskt minska våra utsläpp av koldioxid och andra växthusgaser. Forskningsprogrammet LETS arbetar med frågor som: Vilken politisk styrning och institutionell förändring krävs? Vilka hinder finns och vilka är möjligheterna på vägen mot de

Maritime transportation is a significant contributor to SOx, NOx and particle matter emissions, and to a lesser extent, of CO2. Recently new regulations are being enforced in special geographical areas to limit the amount of emissions from the ships. This fact, together with the high fuel prices, is driving the marine industry towards the improvement of the energy efficiency of ships. Although mor

We review Buchler and Colangelo's result that leading divergences at any loop order can be calculated using only one-loop calculations and we provide an alternative proof. We then use this method to calculate the leading divergences of and thus the leading logarithmic corrections to the meson mass in the massive $O(N)$ nonlinear sigma model to five-loop order. We also calculate the all-loop result

We extend our earlier work on the massive O(N) non-linear sigma model to other observables. We derive expressions at leading order in the large N expansion at all orders in the loop expansion for the decay constant, vacuum expectation value, meson meson scattering and the scalar and vector form factors. This is done using cactus diagram resummation using a generalized gap equation and other recurs

One option for coping with wasteful uses of fresh water in landscape irrigation is to use the treated greywater(GW). In the present study, an evaluation of a simple treatment system for reusing GW to irrigate green areas,trees, and ornamentals all over the campus in Tafila Technical University (TTU), Jordan, is presented. After 12 months of using the treatment system, the necessity for using fresh

This article gives an overview of some ethical problems raised in connection to nutritional genomics, especially the use of knowledge from nutrigenomics as a basis for personalised nutrition after a genetic test.

I ett samhälle med ökad globalisering blir regler angående den internationella privat- och processrätten allt viktigare. Denna uppsats behandlar lagvalsregler, vilka går att finna i Romkonventionen. Romkonventionens huvudregel är lagvalsfrihet. Det finns dock bestämmelser i konventionen som inskränker denna möjlighet. Artikel 7 rörande internationellt tvingande regler är ett exempel på detta och ä

This report contains a description of the fire safety situation of Holmagården, which is a residence for elderly with special needs, in Svedala, Sweden. The purpose is to evaluate the personal safety in case of fire where concern has taken to the health status of the individuals at Holmagården. Three different fire scenarios have been the starting direction for modelling and calculating. To estima

Several institutions regulating gender seem to overlook and even violate rights and needs for those living outside society’s norms about gender and sexuality. The council of Europe’s commissioner for human rights, amongst others, reports about violations of transgender persons’ right to life, health and physical integrity. This essay connects the situation of transgender persons to the fact that t

ABL 2005 är i sin nuvarande lydelse en omfattande och i många hänseenden detaljerad lag. Regleringen om skadestånd är dock relativt begränsad genom sitt ursprung i allmänna skadeståndsrättsliga principer. Ett aktiebolag och de spörsmål som hanteras där är unika. Detta kräver därför en skadeståndsreglering som är anpassad efter aktiebolagets karaktäristik. Frågan är om den konventionella culpanormeThe Swedish corporation law is an extensive and detailed regulation as it appears in its’ present meaning. However, the regulation regarding damages is relatively limited through its origin in general regulations of damages. The questions raised within a corporation are in many ways unique, and should therefore qualify for a specially customized regulation regarding damages. The question is whethe

The high temperature CaO/SO2 reaction was studied using four Swedish limestones and one dolomite as sorbents. The measurements were carried out in a vacuum thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) apparatus in order to investigate the intrinsic reaction mechanism. The reaction was found to be fast at the beginning due to the surface reaction, while the subsequent stage was controlled by the product layer
