With the aim to bridge the pressure gap between traditional surface science and industrial applications, heterogeneous catalytic reactions on model catalysts are increasingly studied at near-ambient pressures. Under those conditions, the gas phase has been shown to play an important role during the interaction at the gas-surface interface making it complex to study. This complexity can be capturedWith the aim to bridge the pressure gap between traditional surface science and industrial applications, heterogeneous catalytic reactions on model catalysts are increasingly studied at near-ambient pressures.

Why should moral philosophers, moral psychologists, and machine ethicists care about computational complexity? Debates on whether artificial intelligence (AI) can or should be used to solve problems in ethical domains have mainly been driven by what AI can or cannot do in terms of human capacities. In this paper, we tackle the problem from the other end by exploring what kind of moral machines areWhy should moral philosophers, moral psychologists, and machine ethicists care about computational complexity?

Objectives To investigate the prevalence of axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA) in patients with chronic back pain (CBP) of less than 2 years (2y) duration referred to the rheumatologist, the development of diagnosis over time, and patient characteristics of those developing definite (d-)axSpA over 2y. Methods We analysed the 2y data from SPondyloArthritis Caught Early, a European cohort of patients (

Stefan Larsson’s Conceptions in the Code makes a significant contribution to sociolegal analysis and also represents a valuable contribution to conceptual metaphor theory. By utilising the case of copyright in a digital context it explains the role that metaphor plays when the law is dealing with technological change, displaying both conceptual path-dependence as well as what is called non-legislaStefan Larsson's Conceptions in the Code contributes invaluably to socio-legal analysis and conceptual metaphor theory. By examining cases of digital copyright, Larsson elucidates the role that metaphor plays when law is accommodating technological change, displaying both conceptual path-dependence as well as non-legislative developments in law. Analyses draw from conceptual studies of property sp

Purpose: The main objective of this thesis is to examine the effect different drivers of agency costs have on corporate cash holdings in public and private German technology firms. The analysis identifies three potential sources of agency costs. By determining target cash levels first and then obtaining deviations from these targets, the influences of agency costs are measurable. Data Set: The sam

Title: Virtual Reality as presentation tool for architects Authors: Adrian Norlund och Lisa Rask Supervisor: Fredrik Wikberg, Department of Building Construction, Faculty of Engineering (LTH) Question formulation: - Will the audience get a better idea of an object in VR compared to current presentation techniques? - What is most useful for architects, Oculus Rift, Google Cardboard or VR room (CAVE

De perspektiv av blankningslagstiftningen som kommer att lyftas fram i uppsatsen är inte enbart de nationella utan även de europeiska. Den europeiska harmoniseringen har inte uppnått så stora resultat på det skatterättsliga området, vilket beror på den starka suveräniteten som funnits historiskt när det gäller ländernas egna skattesystem. Fokus kommer i huvudsak att ligga på de skatterättsliga effThe perspectives of short-selling rules that will be highlighted in the paper are not only national but also European. The European harmonization has not achieved such great results in the tax area, which is due to the strong sovereignty that existed historically in terms of countries own tax system. The focus will mainly be on the fiscal impact of the phenomenon of short selling, but also the civ

This paper was set out to examine how discrimination lower incentives to attain human capital throughout different societal sectors and, thus, how human capital barriers affect economic growth. We aim to derive a generalized theoretical framework that is applicable to any group facing discrimination. Our secondary purpose is to apply the generalized theoretical framework to women and men in Sweden

Surrogacy is prohibited in many European states. However, such a ban is not global. This can create problems when individuals from states where surrogacy is prohibited travel to other states where it is allowed and become legally recognised parents of children born through surrogacy in the latter states. The implications of cross-border surrogacy come into reality when the intended parents return

In this master's thesis, data from eight different cases of novice entrepreneurs is gathered. The goal was to investigate how novice entrepreneurs shape their decision-making process to manage uncertainty in the early stages of their ventures. Utilizing qualitative interviews conducted between March and April of 2024, this study delves into the different strategies used by novice entrepreneurs
