Dynamical Analysis of Terahertz Quantum Cascade Lasers

This thesis focuses on various aspects in terahertz quantum cascade lasers such as high temperature performances, electrical instabilities and chaos. In the first part of the thesis, an introduction to the topic and the non equilibrium Green's function package applied is given with particular emphasise on the inhomogeneous domain model and the chaos theory. In addition, new results regarding the h

Physical Bounds on Antennas with Feed Constraints

Antenna current optimization has been used to derive physical bounds on antenna parameters such as Q-factor, radiation efficiency, gain, directivity, capacity, and radiation patterns. The success of the methodology is partly due to the assumption of absolute control of the antenna current in the antenna region which in practice producing an array antenna with multiple feeds. Details of the feed su

Neoliberally framed suffering in professionals and patients in palliative care settings – ’telling cases’ from an ethnographic multi-sited field study in Denmark

In western countries, palliative care is a part of the formal healthcare system, ruled by neoliberal, organisational ideas. This Danish study illuminates how nurses and patients with non-western immigrant backgrounds (inter)act in relation to encounters in palliative care settings. Two ‘telling’ cases were selected, based on interviews and participating observations from a multi-sited ethnographic

”Nya teorier i gamla läglar? Rätten i en förändrad kontext”: Rättssociologiska reflektioner om skadeståndslagens dynamik

Women and youth in Banja Luka entrepreneurship ecosystem : promoting inclusive entrepreneurship ecosystems for women and youth

By applying the ILO’s inclusive entrepreneurship ecosystem model, this report outlines key developments and challenges in the ecosystem for women and young entrepreneurs in Banja Luka. Numerous challenges identified under each pillar of the entrepreneurship ecosystem influence the pathways for decent work of women and young entrepreneurs who are part of the ecosystem, but many challenges can also

Intra- and inter-rater reliability of compressed breast thickness, applied force, and pressure distribution in screening mammography

BackgroundEnsuring equivalent and reproducible breast compression between mammographic screening rounds is important for the diagnostic performance of mammography, yet the extent to which screening mammography positioning and compression is reproducible for the individual woman is unknown.PurposeTo investigate the intra- and inter-rater reliability of breast compression in screening mammography.Ma

Exploring Inclusive Cities for Migrants in the UK and Sweden: A Scoping Review

In recent years, social work with migrants and ethnic minorities has developed as a field of research and practice. Further, it is recognised in the literature that the increased processes of human mobility in today’s societies have driven a growing focus on inclusive cities, especially in larger urban areas where ethnic diversity and cultural heterogeneity can be found alongside newly arrived mig

Translational opportunities of single-cell biology in atherosclerosis

The advent of single-cell biology opens a new chapter for understanding human biological processes and for diagnosing, monitoring, and treating disease. This revolution now reaches the field of cardiovascular disease (CVD). New technologies to interrogate CVD samples at single-cell resolution are allowing the identification of novel cell communities that are important in shaping disease developmen

Editing Emily Dickinson: the Production of an Author

Editing Emily Dickinson considers the processes through which Dickinson's work has been edited in the twentieth century and how such editorial processes contribute specifically to the production of Emily Dickinson as author. The posthumous editing of her handwritten manuscripts into the conventions of the book and the electronic archive has been informed by editors' assumptions about the literary

Experiment i sociala medier: Går det att härma Facebook i labbet?

Experiment är en metod som har haft skiftande öden och anseende inom samhällsvetenskapliga discipliner under årens lopp. För tillfället har experimenten fått en renässans inom flera samhällsvetenskapliga discipliner. Inte minst i samband med de ökande möjligheterna att använda s.k. big data finns ett växande intresse att på olika sätt kombinera detta med experimentell design (Bond et al 2012; Baks

Social media, participation, peer pressure, and the European refugee crisis: a force awakens?

Using focus group interviews, this paper studies the way young people in Sweden employed social media to discuss and mobilise during the on-going European refugee crisis, with a special focus on peer pressure, social interaction and connective action.In 2015, an unprecedented influx of refugees, predominantly from Syria, Iraq, and Afghanistan, entered Europe on foot and in dinghies. The refugee cr

Biological processes for hydrogen production

Methane is produced usually from organic waste in a straightforward anaerobic digestion process. However, hydrogen production is technically more challenging as more stages are needed to convert all biomass to hydrogen because of thermodynamic constraints. Nevertheless, the benefit of hydrogen is that it can be produced, both biologically and thermochemically, in more than one way from either orga

Butterfly monitoring using systematically placed transects in contrasting climatic regions - Exploring an established spatial design for sampling

Butterfly monitoring schemes are recording programs initiated to monitor nationwide butterfly abundance and distribution patterns, often with help from volunteers. The method generates high-resolution data, but may be associated with a degree of habitat sampling bias if volunteers prefer to survey areas perceived to be high-quality butterfly habitats. This can result in habitats becoming underrepr

The genome of Haemoproteus tartakovskyi and its relationship to human malaria parasites

The phylogenetic relationships among hemosporidian parasites, including the origin of Plasmodium falciparum, the most virulent malaria parasite of humans, have been heavily debated for decades. Studies based on multiple-gene sequences have helped settle many of these controversial phylogenetic issues. However, denser taxon sampling and genome-wide analyses are needed to confidently resolve the evo
