Recent observations of high-redshift galactic disks (z ≈ 1-3) show a strong negative trend in the dark-matter (DM) fraction f DM with increasing baryon surface density. For this to be true, the inner baryons must dominate over DM in early massive galaxies, as observed in the Milky Way today. If disks are dominant at early times, we show that stellar bars form promptly within these disks, leading t
As the fusion of the Internet of Things (IoT) and blockchain technology advances, it is increasingly shaping diverse fields. The potential of this convergence to fortify security, enhance privacy, and streamline operations has ignited considerable academic interest, resulting in an impressive body of literature. However, there is a noticeable scarcity of studies employing Latent Dirichlet Allocati
In this text, I develop my earlier argument on the possibility of a non-confessional theological inquiry, and hence an intellectual practice devoted to the classical theological problems that begin with reason rather than faith, at secular universities in Sweden, a country with no state church and many different religions and denominations. I answer the criticism against this tentative proposal by
This study investigates the publication and reception of the Latin American boom literature in Sweden from 1960 to 1990, focusing on Julio Cortázar, Carlos Fuentes, Gabriel García Márquez and Mario Vargas Llosa. It analyses the extent of Swedish translations of their works and the type and amount of attention they received in the Swedish press. Using a bibliometric approach for the translations, a
This study uses a novel approach to identifying local contextual conditions conducive, alone or in combination to far-right political violence. The studied case is asylum housing attacks occurring in Sweden 2015-16. Using a fuzzy-set qualitative comparative analysis of eighty-six Swedish municipalities, forty-two of which have experienced arson attacks against refugee housing facilities, we operat
Despite rapid development, modern graphics hardware is still much too slow to render photo-realistic images in real time, and it will most likely remain so if we rely only on yearly growth in hardware performance. Therefore, better algorithms are constantly needed in order to advance the field. In the first part of this thesis, we present new algorithms for hardware rasterization. We investigate
The aim of this study is to analyse the total use of energy in four multi-family houses during their life cycles, and to compare the use of energy during the different periods in the life cycle. The aim is also to investigate how energy use during the life cycle changes with different construction parts, e g if the thermal insulation thickness or the framework is changed. Results show that the en
Background: Measuring multiple and higher-order interaction effects between multiple categorical variables proves challenging. Objectives: To illustrate a multilevel modelling approach to studying complex interactions. Methods: We apply a two-level random-intercept linear regression to a binary outcome for individuals (level-1) nested within strata (level-2) defined by all observed combinations of
A mobile stroke unit (MSU) is an advanced ambulance equipped with specialized technology and trained healthcare personnel to provide on-site diagnosis and treatment for stroke patients. Providing efficient access to healthcare (in a viable way) requires optimizing the placement of MSUs. In this study, we propose a time-efficient method based on a genetic algorithm (GA) to find the most suitable am
The theoretical foundation of inflation targeting was laid out by the Swedish economist Knut Wicksell (1851–1926) in his groundbreaking treatise, Interest and Prices, published originally in German in 1898. Here he proposed price stability as the rule for monetary policy. Today, inflation targeting is considered the best-practice approach to monetary policy across the world. It has contributed to
Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) are intense, short-lived bursts of gamma-ray radiation observed up to a high redshift (z ∼ 10) due to their luminosities. Thus, they can serve as cosmological tools to probe the early Universe. However, we need a large sample of high-z GRBs, currently limited due to the difficulty in securing time at the large aperture telescopes. Thus, it is painstaking to determine quickl
Ett barn har behov av en vårdnadshavare från dess födelse till sin 18 års dag. Vem det ska vara regleras i föräldrabalken och den gör modern till ensam vårdnadshavare till ett barn när det föds utanför äktenskapet. Om föräldrarna vill kan de ansöka om gemensam vårdnad, eller då samtycke inte finns kan den andra föräldern väcka talan om ensam eller gemensam vårdnad. För att förstå varför reglerna A child needs a guardian from its birth to its 18th birthday. Who that should be is regulated in the föräldrabalken which makes the mother the sole custodian of a child when a child is born out of wedlock. If the parents so wish, they can apply for joint custody, or when consent is not reached, the other parent can sue for solitary or joint custody. In order to understand why the rules are formed
Studies show that toys, electronics and mattresses that are used by children in preschool environments contain hazardous substances. These substances can cause serious long term effects on children’s health and development and it is therefore important to minimise exposure to products containing these substances. Young children spend a significant amount of time in preschools and a change in the p
Child poverty is a growning issue in the Swedish society today. Research in the area demonstrates differences in support and intervention work around Sweden, which appose the principle of equality that underpin Swedish welfare policy. Combating child poverty is a shared concern between different political actors. It does not in itself constitute a specific policyarea. But it is linked to activitie
Uppsatsen behandlar brottsoffers rätt till ersättning för kränkning enligt SKL 2 kap 3§ och 5 kap 6§. Denna typ av ideell ersättning har rötter långt tillbaka i historien men har kraftigt ökat sin rättsliga betydelse de senaste 25 åren. En svängning i den politiska debatten har under denna tid lett till stadigt ökande ersättningsnivåer och ny lagstiftning. Uppsatsen presenterar brottsoffers rätt tThe report deals with victim rights to recover damages and state compensation for criminal violations under SKL Chapter 2 § 3 and Chapter 5 § 6 in Swedish law. The legal significance of monetary compensation for non-material or non-economic loss caused by criminal violations has increased rapidly in Sweden in the last 25 years. During this period a change in the political climate have resulted in
India is the home of over 1 billion people and is a mixture of ethnicities, religions, languages, castes and tribes. In the 1980’s the country was one of the poorest countries in the world but during the last twenty years India has gone through a huge economic growth, bigger than the world had ever seen before. According to these measures, India has no similarity with any other country in the worl
This thesis is motivated by the aim of ascertaining whether the ECtHR is limiting the ECHR’s potential, if any, to contribute to the curbing of child welfare disproportionality rates in CoE MSs. It provides a critical analysis of ECtHR jurisprudence on child protection interventions involving minority children – namely, children belonging to ethnic, religious, or linguistic minority groups or whos
Renewed scholarly interest in the category of history within the field of International Relations has prompted a revival of the so-called English School and its analytic emphasis on the concept of international society. This study examines the expansion of nineteenth century European international society through the theory of legal reception applied to the cases of Japan and the Ottoman empire. M
