En uppsats som diskuterar problem vid översättning av två kapitel ur en tyskspråkig bok om ugglor. Diskussionen innefattar dels hanteringen av ett tyskt ord med särskilda konnotationer och som saknar direkt motsvarighet i svenskan, dels tänkbara strategier vid översättning av ljudhärmande ord, d v s försök att i skrift beskriva ugglornas olika läten.

The focus of this work is on the experimental techniques and data analysis in atomic spectroscopy. Improved methods for the analysis of spectra and the determination of level energies are presented. Most of these are based on a rigorous statistical treatment of the spectroscopic data. Strong lines in the spectrum of singly-ionized neon between 2000 and 5000Å are suggested as tertiary wavelength st

The theme of this dissertation is how changing claims as to what is proper and true social work have been formulated and staged in the twentieth century. From the perspective of cultural analysis I seek to discuss how social work has been formed and changed over a century. I wish to demonstrate how descriptions and narratives, actions and gazes, practice and rhetoric have constituted a changing pr

This work deals with interpretation of experimental surface spectroscopic data with the aid of first-principle calculations. Surface infrared reflection-absorption spectra as well as spectra from the electron spectroscopic methods photoemission and X-ray absorption are considered. In all cases the surface is modeled by a metal cluster with the same (frozen) geometry as part of the surface. The wo

Possible effects from colour interferences in strong interactions are discussed and investigated, and possible experimental signals in e+e- --> hadrons and e+e- --> W+W- --> hadrons are suggested. The observability of the signals depend on the relative probabilities of the occurrence of interferences, and can provide a measurement of the probabilities. This is important since these probabilities c

This thesis gives an overview about the current status of nanoimprint lithography, a relatively new nanofabrication tool. The technology is capable for parallel mass production of nm-structured features having a resolution below 10 nm and is usable with high throughput on full wafer scale. The thesis is mainly divided into two parts dealing with nanoimprint lithography and electrochemistry. The w

Människans nyfikenhet när det gäller vårt Universum är närmast oändlig. I tusentals år har vi tittat uppåt och undrat om himlen helt enkelt är gudarnas domän eller om det kan finns varelser där ute i oändligheten som liknar oss.I denna visning reser vi från Jorden ut genom vårt Solsystem, besöker Solen och de åtta planeter som kretsar runt den, innan vi åker vidare mot stjärnor och galaxer. GalaxeIn this show we travel from the Earth to the edge of the Universe, discovering planets, stars and galaxies along the way.

Mayafolket har levt i över 3000 år på Yucatánhalvön, i Mellanamerika. I det område som idag tillhör Mexico, Guatemala och Belize, lever Mayakulturen kvar. Precis som människor har gjort i alla tider, så har även Mayafolket tittat upp mot natthimlen och ställt sig frågan: vad gör vi här?I alla Mayafolkets byggnader vördades tid som någonting heligt. Redan för hundratals år sedan föreställde sig MayThe Mayans have lived in central America for over 3000 years. In a region that today belongs to Mexico, Guatemala and Belize the Mayaculture lives on. Throughout history the Mayans have observed the skies above, made up stories and legends and looked to the skies for answers.In a feast of colours and sounds, Mayan Archaeoastronomy: Observers of the Universe makes a tour of 6 Mayan temples: San Ger

A method to estimate Q and QZ' of antennas from single-frequency current distributions is described. This single-frequency method and the concepts of physical bounds on antenna parameters and optimum current distributions are applied to different analysis and design situations of two-dimensional and three-dimensional radiating structures (i.e., antennas). The situations considered are: antenna opt

A low volume and long optical path spectroelectrochemical cell was constructed and tested in a number of applications such as detection of direct electron transfer (DET) between redox enzymes and gold electrodes, determination of the formal potentials of redox centres in proteins and enzymes, as well as mechanistic studies of heterogeneous and intermolecular electron transfer of copper oxidases an

A semi-automatic task oriented system structure has been developed and tested on an arc welding application. In normal industrial robot programming, the path is created and the process is based upon the decided path. Here a process-oriented method is proposed instead. It is natural to focus on the process, since the path is in reality a result of process needs. Another benefit of choosing process
