Aims. Spectral lines of He-like ions are among the most prominent features in X-ray spectra from a large variety of astrophysical and high-temperature fusion plasmas. A reliable plasma modeling and interpretation of the spectra require a large amount of accurate atomic data related to various physical processes. In this paper, we focus on the electron-impact excitation (EIE) process. Methods. We a
Fire strongly impacts the composition and structure of ecosystems, with consequences yet to be understood. We used Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) data to map fire frequency and fire intensity and investigate their effects on miombo woodlands (MW) of central Mozambique. Tree species diversity was evaluated and compared using rarefaction curves. Non-metric multidimensional sca
The diversity and prevalence of malaria parasites of the genera Plasmodium and Haemoproteus were determined in the globally-threatened Aquatic Warbler Acrocephalus paludicola. Birds were sampled during migration in Portugal and at the wintering quarters in Senegal and parasites were detected using molecular methods. Only three generalist parasite lineages (Plasmodium) were found. There were no sig
Sustainability is now accounted for in certain food-based dietary guidelines (FBDG). In 2017, the French FBDG were updated to incorporate environmental preservation. We conducted a multi-indicator evaluation of the 2001 and 2017 FBDG, based on data from 28,340 participants in the NutriNet-Santé cohort who completed an organic food frequency questionnaire. Indicators related to nutrition, environme
Applicants are offered housing according to queue position, availability and preferences. Once an offer is received, an applicant has five days to respond to the offer. If they decline the offer, they exit the queue, but are welcome to join again, as the lowest priority type. Once an application period closes, all applicants who applied for available housing are ranked in the queue, and will be of

The thesis examines the economic strategies which two private museums of Meteora, the Hellenic Culture Museum and the Natural History Museum of Meteora and Mushroom Museum implement, so as to grasp the economic strategies that private museums in Greece adopt. Utilizing Varbanova’s (2013) framework which places specific emphasis not only on the open-system theory as an efficient way to comprehend t
In radiation therapy patient movement caused by respiration can be a major challenge to the ambition to deliver a high absorbed dose to the target volume while minimizing the dose to normal tissues. Large respiratory motion requires increased margins, which implies an increased risk of morbidity from late toxicity. It is therefore important to take respiratory motion into account when treating tar
Mycosis fungoides is a disease with manifestation of the skin that has traditionally been treated with electron therapy. In this paper, we present a method of treating the entire skin with megavoltage photons using helical tomotherapy (HT), verified through a phantom study and clinical dosimetric data from our first two treated patients. A whole body phantom was fitted with a wetsuit as bolus, and
Engagemang på sociala medier inom politisk kommunikation är ett aktuellt forskningsområde för strategisk kommunikation. I det digitala samhället finns det starka incitament för partier att skapa ett högt engagemang på sociala medier för att nå ut med sina politiska budskap. Syftet med den här studien är att undersöka hur engagemang som beroende variabel kan förklaras med kommunikationsstrategier, Engagement on social media in political communication is a highly relevant area for strategic communication research. There are clear incentives for political parties to create high levels of engagement in their social media channels, in order to reach out with their political messages in today’s digital society. The purpose of this study is to examine to which degree the dependent variable engage

This thesis, Exports and Externalities consists of three papers. The first chapter, Bridging Trade Barriers: Evaluating Models of Multi-Product Exporters, evaluates empirically the theoretical predictions of several models of multi-product exporters. For identification I use a quasi-natural experiment, the introduction of the Öresund bridge between southern Sweden and Denmark, to analyse the impac
In modern cancer therapy, radiotherapy (RT) is a vital part of most treatments. Most RT treatments in Sweden are performed using intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) with fixed or dynamic arc delivery. The dose gradients outside the target are steep, the margins are small, and the treatment delivery is complicated. Complicated treatments increase the requirement for control of the uncertaintiesIn modern cancer therapy, radiotherapy (RT) is a vital part of most treatments.

The surface and bulk components of the x-ray photoelectron spectra of free noble gas clusters are shown to display differences in the influence of postcollision interaction between the photoelectron and the Auger electron on the spectral line shape; the bulk component is observed to be less affected than the surface and atomic parts of the spectra. A model for postcollision interaction in nonmetal

As a consumer-driven trend, Bring your own device (BYOD) imposes many changes on an already challenged relationship between the IT organization and the business organization. For this reason, it is important to map this influence. The purpose of this research was therefore to determine the effect of BYOD on the IT-business relationship. This was done by deriving factors from literature that affect
Due to increased awareness of climate change and higher energy costs, well‐insulated buildings have become more common. Furthermore, the interests of using wood in building to produce more carbon dioxide‐efficient houses have increased. However, thicker thermal insulation in walls increases the risk of high relative humidity levels and the risk of mould‐related damage in Wood frame houses. In orde
From the management Two weeks ago, the Dean of the Science Faculty gave all departments an assignment to investigate how we can strengthen coordination within and between the departments as well as between the departments and the Faculty. This assignment has been initiated by the transversal RQ20 panel reports and their recommendations to our Faculty regarding organization, infrastructure and recr

Resultatet av undersökningen visar att revisorernas fastställda väsentlighetsnivåer skiljer sig relativt mycket åt (den lägsta väsentlighetsnivån är 600 000 kr och den högsta är 1 250 000 kr) samt att det finns både skillnader och likheter i deras förda resonemang. Likheterna kan urskiljas i respondenternas arbetssätt och att de förhåller sig mycket till ISA. Orsaker till skillnaderna visar sig The result of the survey shows that the auditors determine materiality levels differently (the lowest materiality level is 600 000 kr and the highest one is 1 250 000 kr). There are both differences and similarities in the auditors´ argumentations. The similarities can be seen in auditors´ working process, during which they are regulated much by ISA. On the one hand, the differences can be expla
The isoionic dilution method was used to measure the intrinsic viscosity, [η], and the Huggins coefficient, K(H), of two poly(acrylic acid) samples, 50% neutralized with NaOH, with molecular weights 5.0 x 103 (Na50PA5) and 4.8 x 104 (Na50PA48) at different ionic strengths. For Na50PA5 at low ionic strength, [η] is higher than the value predicted by a rigid-rod model. Assuming that the chain has re
