Fly-by encounters between two planetary systems I: Solar system analogues

Stars formed in clusters can encounter other stars at close distances. In typical open clusters in the Solar neighbourhood containing hundreds or thousands of member stars, 10-20 per cent of Solar-mass member stars are expected to encounter another star at distances closer than 100 au. These close encounters strongly perturb the planetary systems, directly causing ejection of planets or their capt

Emittance improvements in the MAX IV photocathode injector

The MAX IV injector design predicts a beam with 100 pC of charge and an emittance lower than 1 mm mrad. The photocathode pre-injector is based on the now close to standard 1.6-cell gun adapted to 2.9985 GHz, in combination with a Ti:Sapphire laser system. This system reaches the requirements of the injector operation for the SPF, but can be tuned beyond specifications to open up new operation mode

Violence & Learning: Scenario 2

The script we are presenting below is one of four different scenarios from Violence & Learning by Henrik Bromander and John Hanse, which was performed at the International Brecht Society’s Symposium in Oxford in June 2016. The learning play Violence & Learning has been developed and performed in the context of left-wing activism in Sweden. The different variants of the play have partly bee

Quantifying the impacts of urban morphology on modifying microclimate conditions in extreme weather conditions

It is well-known that the morphology of urban areas modifies the variations of climate variables at microscale; known as microclimate conditions. The complexity of urban morphology can lead to undesired wind conditions or excessive air temperature; particularly in extreme weather conditions. This study attempts to quantify the impacts of urban morphology on the evolution of wind speed and air temp

Audible beacons and wearables in schools : Helping young visually impaired children play and move independently

Young children with visual impairments tend to engage less with their surroundings, limiting the benefits from activities at school. We investigated novel ways of using sound from a bracelet, such as speech or familiar noises, to tell children about nearby people, places and activities, to encourage them to engage more during play and help them move independently. We present a series of studies, t

The Element of Play in Interpretation and Classical Piano Performance

“The stage is a playground, it’s not a serious place where you have to be at your best, ... it should be a playground.” Nir Ben Gal, choreographerDuring my years of study, and later as a performing artist, performance was never discussed conceptually and questions regarding audience interaction and stage fright were seldom raised. Further, musicians suffering from stage fright are most often refer

Publika museirum : Materialiseringar av demokratiska ideal på Statens Historiska Museum 1943-2013

The aim of this dissertation is to investigate how public spaces in the Swedish History Museum in Stockholm have materialized in relation to cultural policy objectives and ideals of a democratic and inclusive museum. The investigated time period spans from 1943 to 2013. The Swedish History Museum is a state-run archaeological museum, where norms and values are expressed through various governmenta

4-quinolone antibiotics : Positive genotoxic screening tests despite an apparent lack of mutation induction

The effects of different 4-quinolone antibiotic derivatives (4-Qs) in a number of short-term tests commonly employed for the evaluation of genetic toxicity were studied. Incorporation of [3H]thymidine into mitogen-stimulated peripheral blood lymphocytes was strongly enhanced at a low concentration (1.56 μg/ml) for most of the tested 4-Qs, whereas DNA strand breakage in lymphoblastoid cells was evi

Who is Woman and Who is Man? : Normativity at Intersections of Gender and Sexual Orientation

Inom nuvarande könsnormer så ses kön främst som ett uttryck av biologiska könsgrupper som är binära och olika, men kompletterande. En performativ syn på kön analyserar i stället kön som något som uppstår under sociala interaktioner genom konstant repetition av handlingar som sker inom förhärskande könsdiskurser. Dessa hegemoniska könsdiskurser konstruerar kön som fundamentalt heterosexuellt. DärmeCurrent gender norms predominantly construct gender as an expression of binary sex categories that are different but complementary. A performative view of gender instead analyses gender as an emergent feature of social interactions that is created by the constant repetition of acts in relation to discourses of gender. Within these hegemonic discourses, gender is constructed as fundamentally hetero

Industrial Symbiosis - A Tool for More Sustainable Regions?

Popular Abstract in Swedish Dagens industriella system är inte långsiktigt hållbara. För detta behövs bland annat fundamentala förändringar av hur samhällets resurser används. Detta gäller den totala volymen som förbrukas men också vilka ämnen som sätts i omlopp i samhället. Därutöver behövs ett mer rättvist utnyttjande av dessa resurser. Industriell ekologi är den vetenskap som studerar de förändToday's industrial systems are regarded to have unsustainable characteristics. In order to acquire a more sustainable state, fundamental changes are needed in the qualitative and quantitative aspects of the resource flows associated with such systems. These need to go hand in hand with a more equitable distribution of the benefits and burdens associated with such resource use. The identification a

Mellan frisk och sjuk : En studie av psykiatrisk öppenvård

Popular Abstract in Swedish Under de senaste decennierna har en omfattande omstrukturering ägt rum av den psykiatriska vården. Verksamheterna vid de gamla mentalsjukhusen har avvecklats genom en omfattande nerdragning av slutenvårdplatser. Psykiatrins långtidssjuka patienter skulle återföras till det sociala liv de under lång tid varit avskärmade ifrån. I samband med omorganiseringen till den s kIn the past few decades a comprehensive restructuring of psychiatric care has taken place in Sweden. The activities of the traditional closed institutions have been curtailed through a drastic reduction in the number of beds available in such institutions. "Day treatment," has arisen as a new form of intensive outpatient care in the new, geographically localized psychiatric care of patients with l

Nödvändighetens pris : Konsumtion och knapphet bland barnfamiljer

Popular Abstract in Swedish Syftet med avhandlingen är att studera relationen mellan ekonomisk knapphet och konsumtion med fokus på barnfamiljer. Avhandlingen handlar huvudsakligen om att teoretiskt försöka förstå vad ekonomisk knapphet kan innebära i förhållande till ett konsumtions- eller överflödssamhälle som det svenska. Barnfamiljer används som ett empiriskt exempel för att illustrera de teorThe object of this thesis has been to study the relationship between consumption and economic scarcity from a theoretical perspective. I have used families with children as an empirical example to illustrate the theoretical framework. There are two main questions: The first focuses on the structures that create specific conditions for low-income consumers. The second relates to how the households

Characterization of non-expressed C4 genes in a case of complete C4 deficiency: identification of a novel point mutation leading to a premature stop codon

The genetic basis of complete C4 deficiency in a patient with SLE was investigated. Previous studies have demonstrated that this patient has two different major histocompatibility complex (MHC) haplotypes that each contain a major deletion and a non-expressed C4 gene. In the present study, non-expression of the C4 genes was explained by the finding of two distinct C4 gene mutations. A previously d

Freeze-thaw stability of mayonnaise type oil-in-water emulsions

In this paper, the freeze-thaw stability of mayonnaise type oil-in-water emulsions is studied. The emphasis of the experiments have been on the properties of the dispersed oil phase as only small, or no effects, were observed from initial experiments on changing the properties of the aqueous phase within the investigated ranges. Different vegetable oils are investigated in order to relate the comp

Genetic Variation in the Glucose-Dependent Insulinotropic Polypeptide Receptor Modifies the Association between Carbohydrate and Fat Intake and Risk of Type 2 Diabetes in the Malmo Diet and Cancer Cohort.

Context:A common genetic variant (rs10423928, A-allele) in the glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide receptor gene (GIPR) is associated with decreased insulin secretion. Glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide is secreted after food consumption and gipr knockout mice fed a high-fat diet are protected against obesity and disturbances in glucose homeostasis. Objective:Our objective was

Almost k-wise independent sample spaces and their cryptologic applications

An almost k-wise independent sample space is a small subset of m bit sequences in which any k bits are “almost independent”. We show that this idea has close relationships with useful cryptologic notions such as multiple authentication codes (multiple A-codes), almost strongly universal hash families and almost k-resilient functions. We use almost k-wise independent sample spaces to construct new

A differential difference comparator for multi-step A/D converters

The proposed Differential Difference Comparator (DDC) provides easy linear voltage summing/subtraction and comparison functions via current operation. The speed of this unconventional comparator drastically improved since there is no feedback loop and coupling capacitors needed to maintain the linearity. The linear input range is also enlarged by the common mode compression. The principle, design

Generative design systems for the industrial design of functional mass producible natural-mathematical forms

Nature provides us with a vast source of inspiration. However, given industrial designers' open-mindedness and inquisitiveness, a surprisingly limited set of nature-derived symbols continues to be popular in this creative discipline. Rather than designing products mimicking nature, it is probably more rewarding designing them based on the natural principles leading to its growth and form. However,
