Investigations of chemical bonding and electronic structure features for polycrystalline Ni(II) phthalocyanine (NiPc), Ni(II) tetrabenzoporphyrin (NiTBP), Ni(II) 2,3,7,8,12,13,17,18-octaethylporphyrin (NiOEP), Ni(II) 5,10,15,20-tetraisobutylporphyrin (NiTiBuP), Ni(II) 5,15-diphenylporphyrin (NidPP) and Ni(II) 5,15-diisobutylporphyrin (NidiBuP) have been performed by means of high-resolution soft X

Three hundred and forty-eight children from Skaraborg County, Sweden, admitted to hospital with abdominal injuries over a 30-year period (1951-1980), have been analysed and compared with all patients with abdominal injury (1407) admitted to hospital from the same area during the same period. The number of children admitted in the second half of the period was greater than during the first but the

We focus on two problems with the evolutionary scenario proposed: (1) It bypasses the question of the origins of the communicative and semiotic features that make language distinct from, say, pleasant but meaningless sounds. (2) It does little to explain the absence of language in, for example, chimpanzees: Most of the selection pressures invoked apply just as strongly to chimps. We suggest how th

Popular Abstract in Swedish Conflicts and Contracts är en studie av generationslänken i dagens Singapore med fokus på landets kinesiska befolkning. Det huvudsakliga syftet är att undersöka hur den snabba moderniseringen av samhället har påverkat förehållandet mellan äldre och yngre. På mindre än tre decennier har Singapore etablerat sig som en ekonomiskt framgångsrik stadsstat med en högutbildad bThe main purpose of this thesis is to examine the impact of social change on Chinese intergenerational relations in contemporary Singapore. Within only three decades, Singapore has turned into a wealthy and sophisticated metropolis with a highly educated labor force. The massive transformation, however, has been accompanied by the emergence of a deep and complex generation gap. Apart from the leap

This paper describes a model for mobile radio channels that includes consideration of directions of arrival and is thus suitable for simulations of the performance of wireless systems that use smart antennas. The model is specified for 13 different types of environments, covering macro- micro- and picocells. In this paper, a hierarchy of modeling concepts is described, as well as implementation as

A high fibre and a low fibre breakfast meal were given to eight non insulin dependent diabetics ( NIDD ), and eight controls. Blood glucose response was monitored continuously for three hours and characterized using a straight line model. After the high fibre meal the rates of increase and decrease in blood glucose concentration were slower both in diabetics and controls than after the low fibre m

I denna rapport beskrivs ett stort antal laboratorieförsök beträffande deformationer hos husbyggnadsbetong. För krypstudierna tillverkades 8 st betongtyper varav hälften med hög lufthalt och hälften med självkompakterande egenskaper. Parallellt utfördes studier av hållfasthet, krympning och inre relativa fuktigheten. Fältförsök utfördes på bjälklag i ett bostadshus i Malmö.

Zn substitution in Y-Ba-Cu-O phases influences the catalytic ammoxidation of toluene. The activity for formation of both benzonitrile and CO2 at low and high O2 pressures, respectively, decreases strongly with increasing Zn content up to 4%. Above this substitution level, the activity, however, increases slightly. Characterisations of the surface by XPS and of the bulk by XRD analysis, indicate th

BACKGROUND: Recombinant factor VIIa (rFVIIa) has been used to decrease bleeding in a number of settings including hemophilia, liver transplantation, intractable bleeding, and cirrhosis. Experience in the trauma setting is limited. This study was performed to determine whether rFVIIa would reduce bleeding after a grade V liver injury in hypothermic, dilutionally coagulopathic pigs when used as an a

Väderdata från 10 olika meterologiska mätstationer i Sverige - Kiruna, Luleå, Frösön, Söderhamn, Karlstad, Bromma, Jönköping, Säve, Ronneby och Sturup - för tidsperioden 1961 till 1990. De aktuella väderparametrarna är temperatur, relativ fuktighet, ånghalt, mättnadsånghalt, vindhastighet, vindriktning, nederbörd, solstrålning och långvågig strålning.

Popular Abstract in Swedish ETT PARADIS FÖR ALLA. EPA MELLAN FOLKHEM OCH FÖRFÖRELSE I början av 1930-talet etablerades en ny form av konsumtion i Sverige när Enhetsprisaktibolaget Epa öppnade dörrarna för en hänförd och överväldigad allmänhet. Hörnstenar i Epa-systemet var fasta priser, massproducerade produkter, stora lagerutrymmen och låga leveranskostnader. Varorna var avsedda för en ny bred kA Paradise for All. Epa between the People's Home and Seduction. This dissertation is about the Epa department store chain, which existed in Sweden from 1930 to 1977. For many people, Epa was an arena for meeting modernity. By allowing issues of tradition and modernity, cultural learning processes, class, gender and aesthetics to collide with the Epa phenomenon, a complex picture of the Swedish P

Six species from Somalia, Barleria albomarginata, B. dentata, B. glaucobracteata, B. ilicifolia, Hypoestes cinerea and Justicia carnosa, are described as new to science, J. arenaria is proposed as a new name for J. ovalifolia var. psammophila and the new combination B. brevispina is proposed for B. linearifolia var. brevispina.

The ability of dogs to adaptively modulate secretion by the exocrine pancreas to match changes in the amounts and sources of macronutrients is poorly understood. We evaluated the use of re-entrant pancreatic catheters as a non-terminal, temporary approach for the chronic collection of exocrine pancreatic secretion using unrestrained dogs fed diets differing in composition. Re-entrant catheters wer

A semiclassical description of structure functions in DIS at small x is presented. It gives an intuitive picture of the transition from the Double Leading Log approximation at large Q(2), to the powerlike dependence on x in the BFKL region at limited Q(2). Formal derivations from perturbative QCD, e.g. in the BFKL or the CCFM formalisms, are technically complicated, and therefore such an intuitive

The 6.4 T wavelength shifter at MAX-lab is a three pole superconducting planar wiggler with a warm bore, i.e. the vacuum tube passing through the wavelength shifter is at ambient temperature. The wavelength shifter, including surrounding systems such as power supply and He liquifier, has been assembled, tested, and commissioned at MAX-lab. The wavelength shifter has been installed into the 1.5 GeV
