Krönikeartikeln behandlar ur olika synvinklar de stora och växande skillnaderna mellan medlemsavgifterna till olika a-kassor. Akademikerkassan AEA tillhör kassorna med lägst avgift (oktober 2009) medan LO-kassorna i allmänhet har högst avgifter.

We have studied the vicinal Rh(553) surface by the use of High Resolution Core Level Spectroscopy (HRCLS). We demonstrate that we are able to resolve the photo-emitted electrons from the Rh3d5/2 level originating from the step atoms with respect to those emitted from the atoms in the (111) terrace. Our study therefore shows that it is possible to obtain a core level "fingerprint" from the step ato

This paper deals with the quality aspects of e-learning courseware as seen by different quality stakeholders. In 2011, researchers and practitioners from more than 12 countries joined an initiative called “epprobate” with the aim of building a consensus on how to create a quality label and related consultative services for those who wish to enhance the educational value of their e-learning coursew

The transition radiation tracker (TRT) is one of the three subsystems of the inner detector of the ATLAS experiment. It is designed to operate for 10 yr at the LHC, with integrated charges of /spl sim/10 C/cm of wire and radiation doses of about 10 Mrad and 2/spl times/10/sup 14/ neutrons/cm/sup 2/. These doses translate into unprecedented ionization currents and integrated charges for a large-sca

Hematopoiesis is a lifelong, dynamic process in which a small number of pluripotent hematopoietic stem cells (HSC) residing in the bone marrow (BM) give rise to billions of mature blood cells of both myeloid and lymphoid origin each day. This enormous capacity of HSC has been utilized in BM transplantations for 4 decades and is also very important for future gene therapy. Understanding what molecu

Är verkligen svenskt byggande så dåligt som media och statliga utredare gärna påstår? Och i så fall, vems fel är det? Sju inlägg från forskare i Göteborg, Luleå, Lund och Stockholm reder ut hur det står till. Samtidigt visar en enkät bland forskare att det är mycket som de inte är överens om. Antologin är ett av resultaten från samarbetsprojektet Sveriges Bygguniversitet, som har stötts av Formas

Health care expenditures have increased rapidly in most OECD-countries, and several reforms have been considered for the improvement of cost-containment in the health care sector. Physicians in particular have been recognized to have considerable impact on health care expenditures and as a result they have become increasingly involved in budgetary control with the hope of a more efficient use of r

It is widely accepted that firms in peripheral regions benefit to a lesser extent from local knowledge spillovers than firms located in agglomerations or industrial clusters. This paper investigates the extent to which innovative firms in peripheral regions compensate for the lack of access to local knowledge spillovers by collaborating at other geographical scales. So far the literature predomina
