We report on the "safe" Coulomb excitation of neutron-rich Cd, Xe, and Ba isotopes in the vicinity of the doubly-magic nucleus 132Sn. The radioactive nuclei have been produced by ISOLDE at CERN and postaccelerated by the REX-ISOLDE facility. The γ-decay of excited states has been detected by the MINIBALL array. The presented preliminary results for the B(E2) values are consistent with expectations

Abstract in Japanese 全ての入所施設を解体、地域生活支援を実現させたスウェーデンと、実現できない日本。両国の知的障害者をめぐる制度・政策、生活実態などから日本の課題を浮き彫りにした研究書『脱施設化と地域生活支援：スウェーデンと日本』の英語版。

This thesis concerns the pathophysiology of 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) induced cardiotoxicity. The aim of the clinical studies was to determine whether hemorheological factors might explain 5-FU cardiotoxicity (I) and if the syndrome was associated with free radical (FR) generation and lipid peroxidation (II). Changes in blood and plasma viscosity, fibrinogen, hematocrit, and thiobarbituric acid-reacti

Popular Abstract in Swedish I avhandlingen undersöks fysikaliska egenskaper hos heterostrukturer med brutna energigap med hjälp av en flerbands k.p modell och självkonsistenta beräkningar. Heterostrukturer med brutna energigap består av halvledarna InAs, GaSb och AlSb och karaktäriseras av en speciell bandstruktur där ledningsbandet i InAs överlappar med valensbandet i GaSb. På grund av bandöverThis thesis examines the physical properties of broken-gap heterostructures using a multiband k.p model and self-consistent calculations. Broken-gap heterostructures, made from InAs, GaSb, and AlSb, are characterized by a special band alignment with an overlap between the InAs conduction band and the GaSb valence band. The band overlap results in anticrossing regions in the energy dispersions and

Artikeln behandlar konsekvenserna av utomäktenskapliga sexuella relationer beroende på kvinnans ståndstillhörighet. Bokens syfte är att förmedla historisk kunskap genom att återberätta individuella livsöden. Det levda livet blottlägger strukturer som omgett människor i olika tider – det kan handla om sociala, kulturella eller ekonomiska strukturer.

The chapter contains an analysis of two similar attempts to institutionalise ‘national memory’ in the Czech Republic and Slovakia after the fall of Communism and dissolution of Czechoslovakia. The study focuses on two documents that create a legal basis for such institutionalisation and on the main actors who initiated the decisions to create these institutes. It is argued that although the origin

Cirkulationsplatser blir en allt vanligare korsningstyp. Personer med synskada upplever svårigheter med att korsa gatan vid cirkulationsplatser. Dagens forskning om vad som skiljer cirkulationsplatser från andra korsningstyper är bristfällig. Denna studie syftar till att ge en bild av vad som är svårt och vad som underlättar när en person med synskada ska korsa en gata i allmänhet och vid cirkulat

In this chapter we emphasize the importance of recognizing the interdependence among exchange rates, interest rates and inflation rates in measuring corporate exposure. First, several issues relating to management’s views of the macroeconomic environment, as well as the firm’s objective and structure will be discussed. These issues must be addressed before multiple regression analysis can be imple

The great transformation of Swedish agriculture in the 18th and 19th centuries was part of a European-wide development sharing similar characteristics. While researchers agree that extensive agro-technological, social and institutional change took place, opinions differ with regards to the causes, spread, timing and sequence of events. Through a systematic study of agricultural production, land us

The APARCH model is a generalization of the GARCH model that attempts to capture asymmetric responses of returns and of volatility to positive and negative `news shocks' -the phenomenon known as the leverage effect. Despite its potential, the model's mathematical properties have not yet been fully investigated. While the capacity of the model to account for the leverage effect is clear from its de
