Commissioning of the First Insertion Devices on the 1.5 GeV Storage Ring in MAX IV

Ett insättningselement på MAX IV är en förutsättning för det ljus man vill skapa, men påverkar elektronerna som far runt i anläggningen negativt - med hjälp av smarta elektromagneter kan detta lösas. MAX IV är en partikelaccelerator i världsklass. I anläggningen i utkanten av Lund swishar elektronerna i ljusets hastighet runt i enorma ringar av vakuumrör. Till skillnad från vad många tror krockasWhen installing an insertion device (ID) in a storage ring the electron beam is affected. The positional displacement and angle deflection is called orbit displacement (OD) and higher order effects such as focusing of the electron beam are referred to as linear optics. The ability to perform multiple simultaneous experiments is crucial in a synchrotron light source such as MAX IV. This is impossib

Regional Variations in Female Labor Force Participation Rates in Sweden, 1870-1950

The recent success story of gender equality in Sweden puts a shadow over the circumstances during Swedish industrialization when women both lost and won important positions in the economy and in society. Female labor force participation rates developed differently around the Swedish regions between 1870 and 1950 and regional heterogeneity can explain some of the variations where higher urbanizatio

Sveriges framtida befolkningsstrukturer

The most central for the population to grow is the fertility rate. When the birth rate is not the most central for an individual the conditions change the population growth. The fertility rate in Sweden is around 1,88 children per woman, although there has been a drastic increase in the population. This increase, which is a combination of the domestic birth rate and an external increase, has given

Open Air Theatre - Cultivation of land not yet urbanized

The Crevice - A theater in the open air on the coast of Portugal strives to prove a link between man made and natural formations. I marvel why the development of our human civilization keeps being branded as artificial with a negative connotation. I believe our built habitat is commonly considered somewhat less natural than bird’s neatly constructed nests or polar bears burrowing into snow and r

Unbiasing entomological kHz Scheimpflug LIDAR data

Malaria är idag en av världens vanligaste och dödligaste sjukdomar; bara år 2015 avled nästan en halv miljon människor i malaria vilket gör malariamyggan till det dödligaste djuret på jordklotet. Det stora problemet med Malaria är att det inte finns något tillgänglingt vaccin/medicin för fattiga i utsatta länder; det som finns på marknaden idag är malariaprofylax som fungerar både som vaccin och mInsects can be mapped using a method called Scheimpflug Lidar (LIght Detection And Ranging).
