Machinery prices are a crucial part of the history of catching up, technological progress and the industrial revolution diffusion. However, the efforts to obtain an international price for capital goods have been scattered and the majority of the works dealing with this phenomena had a national scope mainly . In this paper, the authors have done an effort to homogenise the different national machi

En informativ ursprungsmärkning av el? Vet du vad cirkeldiagrammet som de flesta svenska elkunder får på sin elhandelsfaktura betyder? Har du tagit del av informationen som redovisas i den? Har du förstått informationens innebörd? Om svaret är nej på dessa frågor är du förmodligen inte ensam. Denna studie har kartlagt denna information som finns på elhandelsfakturor, så-kallad ursprungsmärkning a

According to efficient market theory, all publicly available information is reflected in asset prices. In its semi-strong form, fundamental analysis cannot be used as a method to generate an abnormal return. Implying that abnormal return can only be achieved by incurring a higher level of risk. Joel Greenblatt (2006) shows that by applying simple fundamental analysis and ranking companies based on

A momentum imaging spectrometer optimized for photoionization experiments with synchrotron radiation was built in 2008. The spectrometer is equipped with an electrostatic lens, that focuses the charged dissociation products on to a position-sensitive multi-hit delay line anode. The possibility of focusing is essential for most applications, where fragment momentum is to be extracted. The apparatus

This work seeks to develop a Kantian ethical theory in terms of a general ontology of values and norms together with a metaphysics of the person that makes sense of this ontology. It takes as its starting point Kant’s assertion that a good will is the only thing that has an unconditioned value and his accompanying view that the highest good consists in virtue and happiness in proportion to virtue.

This thesis deals with different types of chiral fields. The properties of fermion masses are investigated from different poits of view, both within the Standard Model and in extensions of the model. It is shown how mass matrix invariants are used to define the measurables of the quark mixing matrix as invariant functions of the mass matrices. One model is presented where the family pattern is s

This dissertation gives a description of the regulation of marriage, registered partnership and cohabitation - emphazising the joint dwelling - in the perspective of two basic normative patterns, on one side community and on the other financial independence/individual ownership, trying to explain the differences and similarities between the regulations. The content of the legal regulation is, furt

The brain is not silent. Even in the absence of stimuli are the neurons activated every now and then in what is called "spontaneous" or "background activity" which provides a noisy background to the operation of the brain. This work shows how this noise can be utilized in the cognitive process. That is, rather than being treated as a nuisance, noise is given a functional role in the brain´s activi
