Populärvetenskaplig sammanfattning Vad har berget i Romeleåsen varit med om? Jordskorpan är uppbyggd av ett antal plattor. Vid plattgränser under oceanerna bildas ny skorpa av magma som tränger upp. Oceanplattan kan inte öka i storlek. Där oceanplattan möter en platta med kontinental jordskorpa tränger oceanplattan under kontinentalplattan (subduktion, t. ex. Anderna). Vid kollisionen dras sedimeRomeleåsen is the south-westernmost exposure of the Fennoscandian Shield in Sweden. Fennoscandia forms a part of the East European Craton and was extended to the south-west during prolonged episodes of accretion during the period 1.95-1.55 Ga. Metamorphic reworking took at least place during the Hallandian/Danopolonian orogeny at 1.47-1.38 Ga and during the Sveconorwegian orogeny 1.10-0.92 Ga. Hig

BackgroundIn primary health care people with mental health needs are often overlooked or masked with physical complaints. It has been suggested that public health nurses lack sufficient knowledge when encountering people with mental health problems. Low levels of mental health literacy among professionals are associated with negative patient outcome. There is a need to understand public health nur

Full-field transmission X-ray microscopy (TXM) is a well established technique, available at various synchrotron beamlines around the world as well as by laboratory benchtop devices. One of the major TXM challenges, due to its nanometre-scale resolution, is the overall instrument stability during the acquisition of the series of tomographic projections. The ability to correct for vertical and hori

In order to study the characteristics of 3D gas-liquid interfaces, flow pattern transitions, and void fraction in mini tubes, virtual multi-vision experiments and numerical simulations are conducted in a 5.16 mm horizontal tube with air as the dispersed phase and water as the continuous phase. Air and water flow velocities range from 0.024 to 12.330 m/s and from 0.039 to 0.942 m/s, respectively. A

There is no alternative! Margaret Thatcher once proclaimed in order to defend neoliberalist reforms and – implicitly – the capitalist regime. But if one doesn’t agree with Thatcher’s definition of the situation and her (and her many followers’) subsequent analysis, what viable options does one really have? Is it possible to come up with an empirically grounded alternative to the dominant modes of

Anslagstavlan is a neglected but important part of Sweden’s modern audiovisual heritage. The purpose of this media historical and digital humanities project is to study the aesthetic, narrative and rhetorical development of audiovisual government information on Swedish television. While much research has been devoted to the Swedish public service model, wherein regulated independence from the gove

Ship traffic is a major source of aerosol particles, particularly near shipping lanes and harbours. In order to estimate the contribution to exposure downwind of a shipping lane, it is important to be able to measure the ship emission contribution at various distances from the source. We report on measurements of atmospheric particles 7-20 km downwind of a shipping lane in the Baltic Se

At a glucose concentration of 3mm or less, iodoacetamide had no effect on the release of insulin from microdissected pancreatic islets of ob/ob-mice. At higher glucose concentrations, iodoacetamide exerted both an initial stimulatory and a subsequent inhibitory action. When islets were perifused with 1mm-iodoacetamide and 17mm-glucose the inhibitory action predominated after about 15min of transie

Det uttalade syftet bakom tryckfrihetsförordningen har länge varit att “säkerställa det fria meningsutbytet och den allsidiga upplysningen”. Grundlagsskyddet av yttrandefriheten i Sverige har avgränsats mot marknadsföringsrätten med hjälp av ändamålstolkningar av syftet. När yttrandefrihetsgrundlagen skapades utökades syftesbestämmelsen. Den nya grundlagen skulle även skydda “det fria konstnärligThe explicitly intended purpose of the Swedish Freedom of the Press Act is to “secure the free exchange of opinion and free and comprehensive information”. Constitutionally protected freedom of expression in Sweden has been delineated against regulation of commercial speech by a teleological application of this intended purpose. With the creation of the Fundamental Law on the Freedom of Expressio

October 7th 2023 a terror attack on an Israeli music festival took place. This would subsequently escalate the conflict between Israel and Palestine, with many calling it a genocide of the Palestinian people. This thesis investigates how pro-Palestinian demonstrations in Lund and Malmö following October 7th can be understood in relation to police strategies and Anne Nassauer’s theory about situati

This thesis examines queer community archives (QCAs) and their governing documents in order to gain a better understanding of how they define themselves, their work, and the communities they serve. Focusing on archives associated with queer, leather, BDSM, and fetish communities, specifically The Queer Movement Archives and Library (QRAB) and the Leather Archives & Museum (LA&M), it examin

Unseen Sights: Magic, Modernity, and Childhood in Children’s Urban Fantasy explores and analyses the genre of children’s urban fantasy. Drawing upon a combination of fantasy, urban fantasy, and children’s literature scholarship, the thesis considers how children’s urban fantasy works – investigating both its forms and functions, and how it performs work in the world.The genre is analysed both sync

A numerical and experimental study of partial admission in a low reaction two-stage axial air test turbine is performed in this paper. In order to model one part load configuration, corresponding to zero flow in one of the admission arcs, the inlet was blocked at one segmental arc, at the leading edge of the first stage guide vanes. Due to the unsymmetrical geometry, the full annulus of the turbin

Cosmopolitan theory has long argued that the world is becoming increasingly interconnected. Through borderless phenomena such as climate change, and through globalizing processes such as cross-border mobility and the global market, we are becoming increasingly aware of their social and political impact as global news and debates fill our social media channels. To this end, cosmopolitan theory argu

I dagens välfärdstjänster har synen på användaren i allt högre grad förskjutits från en passiv mottagare till en aktiv deltagare i värdeskapande. Denna förskjutning återspeglas i policyreformer, organisatoriska strategier och akademisk diskurs, vilka alla i ökande grad betonar användarorientering. Inom det teoretiska ramverket Public Service Logic (PSL) framställs användarorientering som ett sätt In today’s welfare services, how the user is viewed has increasingly been shifting away from a passive recipient towards an active participant in value creation. This shift is reflected in policy reforms, organisational strategies, and academic discourse, with all of these placing a growing emphasis on user orientation. Within the theoretical framework of Public Service Logic (PSL), user orientati

Den här avhandlingen analyserar en korpus av publicerade personliga brev från första halvan av 1900-talet skrivna av manliga författare från Marocko och Tunisien. Studiens övergripande syfte är att undersöka och identifiera de publicerade brevens litterära egenskaper (genius) och estetiska autonomi (egenvärde) med hjälp av en narratologisk och stilistisk metod som fokuserar påintertextualitet och This dissertation deals with a corpus of published private letters from the first half of the 20th century written by male writers from Morocco and Tunisia. The overall purpose of the study is to investigate and identify the literary properties (literary genius) of the published letters and their aesthetic autonomy using a stylistic and narratological method that focuses on intertextuality and the

Background: Persons on the autism spectrum exhibit poorer body awareness than neurotypical persons. Since movement quality may be regarded as an expression of body awareness, assessment of movement quality is important. Sound assessments of measurement properties are essential if reliable decisions about body awareness interventions for persons on the autism spectrum are to be made, but there is i

The development of a model of carbon oxidation has engaged researchers for decades. Yet many outstanding questions remain due to the inability to experimentally study the details of the oxidation. Today, novel techniques such as environmental transmission electron microscopy (ETEM), allowing for in-situ nanoscale observations of the oxidation process, can help illuminate some of these questions. I

Introduction The relationship between the right to freedom of expression and the prevention of terrorism is particularly fraught. On the one hand, in climates and contexts where there is a heightened risk of terrorist activities being perpetrated, States' authorities often argue that it is necessary to restrict freedom of expression. The reasons presented vary from the need to criminalize inciteme
