Large particle accelerators are difficult to setup. One of the first problems that can be encountered, before production configuration is found, is the beam not passing through the accelerator. The process of guiding the beam through the accelerator is called beam threading. Depending on the accelerator complexity it can take days before the beam passes for the first time. Currently the beam thre

Flera studier har gjorts om hur cognitive load theory kan vara användbar för att urskilja lögner, där forskare ofta har använt externa distraktioner för att öka den kognitiva belastningen för att se effekterna på deltagares förmåga att framgångsrikt fabricera en berättelse. För att vidareutveckla den tidigare forskningen har denna studie ämnat att fortsätta utforska hur metoder som utgår från prinSeveral studies have been made about how cognitive load theory might be useful to discern lies, in which researchers have used external distractions to increase the cognitive load to observe how this impacts participants’ ability to successfully fabricate a story. To further the previous research, this study aimed to study the difference between telling the truth and telling a lie may be related t
