This is the manual and user guide for the Rivet system for the validation and tuning of Monte Carlo event generators. As well as the core Rivet library, this manual describes the usage of the rivet program and the AGILe generator interface library. The depth and level of description is chosen for users of the system, starting with the basics of using validation code written by others, and then cov
Nowadays for small-scale power generation there are electrochemical batteries and mini engines. Many efforts have been done for improving the power density of the batteries but unfortunately the value of 1 MJ/kg seems to be asymptotic. If the energy source is an organic fuel which has an energy density of around 29 MJ/kg with a minimum overall efficiency of only 3.5%, this device would surpass the
A measurement is presented of elastic deeply virtual Compton scattering gamma* p -> gamma p made using e(+) p collision data corresponding to a luminosity of 46.5 pb(-1), taken with the H1 detector at HERA. The cross section is measured as a function of the photon virtuality, Q(2), the invariant mass of the gamma* p system, W, and for the first time, differentially in the squared momentum transfer
This paper presents measurements of W±Z production in pp collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 8 TeV. The gauge bosons are reconstructed using their leptonic decay modes into electrons and muons. The data were collected in 2012 by the ATLAS experiment at the Large Hadron Collider and correspond to an integrated luminosity of 20.3 fb-1. The measured inclusive cross section in the detector fiduci
Sterols regulate several physico-chemical properties of biological membranes that are considered to be linked to function. Ergosterol is the main sterol molecule found in the cell membranes of yeasts and other fungi. Like the cholesterol found in mammalian cells, ergosterol has been proposed to have an ordering and condensing effect on saturated phospholipid membranes. The effects of cholesterol h
This master thesis has been performed at Kockums AB, where the elements of the process of placing cables have been studied in find ways to develop the work procedure. The purpose of the master thesis is to investigate the process of placing cables at naval ships and identify elements that can be developed to make the process more effective and to present proposals for development of the process. I
Både i Sverige och utomlands finns det ett behov av tvistlösning som alternativ till domstolsprövning. I Sverige har sedan 1917 Stockholms Handelskammares Skiljedomsinstitut fungerat som institut för alternativ tvistlösning genom skiljeförfarande och en gångbar lagstiftning på området har i Sverige funnits sedan 1929. Skiljeförfarandet som tvistlösningssätt präglas av fyra essentiella hörnstenar -In Sweden as well as in other countries, there is a need for alternative dispute resolution as supposed to dispute resolution through a court of law. The Stockholm Chamber of Commerce has functioned as an institute for alternative dispute resolution by arbitration since 1917, whereas passable regulations on arbitration have been in force since 1929. The arbitration as a method of dispute resolutio
The book is a part of the result of a project, funded by HSFR (The Swedish Council for Research in the Humanities and Social Sciences). In general it comprises the art criticism in the Swedish daily press from 1990-2000. The studies have a common focus on the text of the art criticism, in contrast to older research on art criticism, which uses the text primarily as a source of knowledge about the
Information technology is a central phenomenon in modern society. It is widely used in a variety of settings and commercial firms use it for a variety of purposes. It could be an Internet application, a manufacturing system, office support software, electronic data interchange or something else, applied in order to create economic benefits through improvements of operative work tasks and business
In the wake of an aesthetic capitalism, the cultural and creative industries (CCI) have become a growing and thriving sector of Western and other economies. Cultural entrepreneurial processes propel the CCI and their regime of aesthetic innovation and constitute constantly evolving art worlds. My dissertation focuses on the material-affective dimensions of these art worlds. It explores cultural en
The anticipated introduction of multi-GHz channel bandwidths in 6G makes integrated passive baseband filters very attractive. This work presents techniques to obtain high stop-band attenuation in a compact 4.7-GHz 5th-order passive baseband filter. A lumped model of the filter inductors is derived, and a capacitive cancellation technique is proposed, along with techniques to reduce inductive coupl
Rivers play a fundamental role in shaping the Earth’s surface and sustaining ecosystems. Accurate modeling and simulation of stream power are essential for understanding fluvial processes. As a measure of the energy exerted by overland flow, stream power possesses both magnitude and directional attributes. However, conventional simulation approaches based on scalar operations often neglect the dir
The purpose of this graduate thesis is to examine how the best interests of the child principle has evolved in the history of the Swedish institution of adoption, how the best interests of the child shall be provided for with reference to international adoption that takes place today and finally if the best interests of the child principle requires to be clarified in the Swedish legislation. A com
Glycolipids such as gangliosides affect the properties of lipid membranes and in extension the interactions between membranes and other biomolecules like proteins. To better understand how the properties of individual lipid molecules can contribute to shape the functional aspects of a membrane, the spatial restriction and dynamics of C–H bond segments can be measured using nuclear magnetic re
