Many of the interesting physics processes to be measured at the LHC have a signature involving one or more isolated electrons. The electron reconstruction and identification efficiencies of the ATLAS detector at the LHC have been evaluated using proton-proton collision data collected in 2011 at TeV and corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 4.7 fb. Tag-and-probe methods using events with lep

When designing innovations for the silver age, it is not sufficient to discover old people’s needs only. In addition, one also has to discover old peoples’ new roles as consumers, citizens and innovators. Since this is a group that until recently has been given few opportunities to make their voices heard, there is a need for methods that identify their needs and demands. More importantly, we need

In the paper we address traffic engineering problems related to optimization of routing in IP networks applying destination-based shortest path routing (SPR) of the OSPF type. An SPR routing pattern is determined by a system of (administrative) weights defined over the set of IP links: the routes for IP forwarding are determined as the shortest paths computed locally at the nodes using the current

Bacteria-eating viruses and their prey: an eternal war The antibiotic resistance problem: what if bacterial viruses were the solution? Nowadays, we hear more and more dreadful stories about nasty bacteria becoming resistant to our best antibiotics. Researchers are therefore spending much time trying to think of alternatives, one of which could be the use of bacteriophages -literally meaning bact

The aim of this study was to examine the work with self-harm within residential care homes for unaccompanied refugees. Furthermore, we wanted to determine how professionals look upon their own competence and the residential care’s ability concerning self-harm. In addition to this we wanted to distinguish different professional approaches within the work. Through semi-structured interviews, we spok

Vår kropp är uppbyggd av biljontals celler, men utan kommunikation och samarbete dem emellan skulle kroppen och dess livsviktiga processer inte fungera. Denna kommunikation äger till stor del rum på cellernas yta, det så kallade cellmembranet, som alltså inte bara fungerar som en barriär mellan cellerna. Här finns nämligen flera olika molekyler och proteiner som sköter en stor del av kommunikationProteoglycans are important macromolecules located on the human cell surfaces. They have many different and important roles in communication between cells. These roles are especially important for cancer development and the survival of tumor cells and these proteoglycans are, therefore, interesting to study. The proteoglycans are made up of a protein core to which glycosaminoglycan chains are boun

The purpose of this master thesis was to develop a football referee paging flag system. A paging flag system is an appliance to facilitate the assessment of the game and to improve the communication between the referee and the assistant referees. The assistant referees are each equipped with a paging flag and the referee is equipped with a receiver, which vibrates when activated from a button push

This thesis is to look into media representation on issues that involve female marriage migrants, in particular, in relation to citizenship, in Singapore, one of the most popular destinations of marriage migration in Asia. Categorized and labeled as “foreign brides” in Singapore, these foreign-born women have long suffered from biased or one-dimensional representation in the local media, particula

The main purpose of this dissertation is to describe how terminally ill patients experienced their situation, and what their views about the future were. Further, the experiences and attitudes of relatives of such patients, and of health care professionals, were also central. Focus was on existential issues, such as autonomy, meaning, guilt, relations, dignity, and communication. In the first pape

Popular Abstract in Swedish Fenomenet stress illustreras ofta med hjälp av den sk. krav-kontroll-stödmodellen, en modell som har inspirerat till mycket forskning inom området psykosocial arbetsmiljö. Enligt modellen har arbeten som karakteriseras av höga krav, dåliga möjligheter att påverka och lågt socialt stöd, negativa effekter på hälsa och välbefinnande. Å andra sidan kan kontrollmöjligheter iThe phenomenon of stress is often illustrated by means of the demand-control-support model, a model that has inspired many research efforts in the area of psychosocial work environment. According to the model, work that is characterised by high demands, low decision latitude and low social support affects aversively health and well-being. Work control and social support may on the other hand act a

Cathodoluminescence (CL) imaging and spectroscopy are used to study one-dimensional structures from three different decades. Quantum-well wires were fabricated in the 1980s and CL images are presented here, where the individual wires of a 450 nm grating are resolved. V-grooved quantum wires (QWRs) were fabricated in the 1990s and the structures exhibit a number of emission peaks. CL is used to ide

Popular Abstract in Swedish Enligt Världshälsoorganisationen (WHO) är en god hälsa ett "tillstånd av fullständigt fysiskt, socialt och mentalt välbefinnande, och inte enbart avsaknad av sjukdom eller funktionshinder". Vår hälsa påverkas under hela vår levnad av en mängd faktorer såsom exempelvis våra gener, biologiska faktorer, sociodemografiska faktorer, beteendefaktorer och livsstil samt miljöfaAbstract: The complexity of health relates to the interplay between numerous factors, e.g., biological and genetic factors, sociodemographic factors, life-style, environmental factors as well as health care services, all possibly acting throughout the life-course. While earlier health theories mainly have focused on adult life style as causes of adult ill-health, life-course research has in recent

Email defects in Swedish hospital organizations - a study of e-mail communication at Helsingborgs lasarett The purpose of this paper is to examine the defects, which within the framework of email overload can be identified in Swedish hospital organizations. The method underlying the work is a questionnaire study. The survey reveals that the amount of email received is not excessively large but due

The purpose of this master's thesis is twofold. Firstly, the purpose is to illuminate how librarians at seven different faculties at the Lund University Libraries define their supportive work towards scientists. Secondly, the purpose is to show in which ways the librarians' work affect the learning and identity of the librarians as well as how this work is influenced by the epistemic cultu

There is an increasing use of distributed computer systems to provide services in both traditional telephony as well as in the Internet. Two main technologies are Distributed Object Computing (DOC) and Web based services. One common DOC architecture investigated in this thesis is the Common Object Request Broker Architecture (CORBA), specified by the Object Management Group. CORBA applications con

The institution of energy consulting services is one of the several government instruments for improving the efficiency of energy usage in many European countries. Various forms of advice on energy issues are offered to households. In Sweden, there has been a drop in the number of households who avail of this service, even though it is offered independently, free of charge and easily accessible. I

A concept based on photofragmentation laser-induced fluorescence (PFLIF) is for the first time demonstrated for simultaneous detection of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) and water (H2O) vapor in various mixtures containing the two constituents in a bath of argon gas. A photolysis laser pulse at 248 nm dissociates H2O2 into OH fragments, whereupon a probe pulse, delayed 100 ns and tuned to an absorption l
