Vector-boson scattering processes are of great importance for the current run-II and future runs of the Large Hadron Collider. The presence of triple and quartic gauge couplings in the process gives access to the gauge sector of the Standard Model (SM) and possible new-physics contributions there. To test any new-physics hypothesis, sound knowledge of the SM contributions is necessary, with a prec
A review concerning road tunnel fire safety and risk is presented. In particular different perspectives and methodson safety and risk are discussed. Road tunnel fire safety usually involves high uncertainty and high-stakes decisions.Thus, a wider group of stakeholders and different types of knowledge should be included in the fire safety analysisand evaluation, than what is required by technical r
Building on eleven months of engaged research with the Platform for Mortgage-Affected People (PAH) in the Barcelona metropolitan region and involvement in the movement post-2014 as an activist, this paper considers the processes through which people facing foreclosure and eviction become political subjects. Community development, in this context, is seen as a transformative, bottom-up process, unf
This thesis describes the work done on two open access microcavities that aims at detecting single rare-earth ions for quantum information applications. The initial microcavity faced mechanical instability due to its geometry, which limited robust design possibilities due to the 25 mm diameter space of the helium bath cryostat. A Purcell enhancement of 2.2 was realized for nanoparticles at 2.1 K,
Cloud RAN (C-RAN) is a promising paradigm for the next generation radio access network infrastructure, which offers centralised and coordinated base-band signal processing in a cloud-based BBU pool. This requires extremely low latency responses to achieve real-time signal processing. In this paper, we analysed the challenges to introduce cloud native model for signal processing in C-RAN. We studie
Post hoc interventions rely on having access to certain personal data - such as the gender, age, ethnicity, and sexual orientation of the persons being evaluated - in order to detect and correct for prejudice. This brings these interventions into possible tension with pertinent data protection legislation, which might restrict the processing of said data. We discuss the compatibility of post hoc i
Mixing in ice covered lakes is caused by through-flow currents, oscillations of the ice cover and by convective currents induced by heat flow from the sediments or by solar radiation penetrating the ice. Mainly from studies in Swedish lakes, current velocities and mixing coefficients are quantified for the different processes generating water movement. Seiche movement caused by wind induced oscill
Popular Abstract in Swedish Det finns tre typer av makromolekyler som är grundläggande för allt liv på jorden: DNA, RNA och proteiner. I varje cell i kroppen finns en kopia av vår arvsmassa, DNA. Denna består av gener som avkodas först till RNA och sedan till tiotusentals proteiner. Alla gener är inte aktiva i varje cell eller i varje tidpunkt. Proteiner kontrollerar nästan alla aspekter av det viProteins are complex structures and years of research have been spent on attempts to understand their complexity. The non-covalent interactions involved in protein folding are: hydrophobic effect, electrostatic interactions, van der Waals interactions and hydrogen bonding. It has been of great interest to address the importance of each of those interactions in proteins. While hydrophobic effect is
The limited thermal stability of polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) hinders their wide applicability, and methods to improve the processability of these biopolyesters are needed for efficient processing, e.g. by melt extrusion. In the present study we have shown by isothermal gravimetry, dynamic rheology and molecular weight analysis that the thermal stability of the PHAs at the processing temperature c
Aims. DE Boo is a unique system, with an edge-on view through the debris disk around the star. The disk, which is analogous to the Kuiper belt in the Solar System, was reported to extend from 74 to 84 AU from the central star. The high photometric precision of the Characterising Exoplanet Satellite (CHEOPS) provided an exceptional opportunity to observe small variations in the light curve due to t
Altered sensory processing has been linked to symptoms of obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) and anxiety disorders (ADs) in youth, but few studies have examined sensory processing in clinical samples and no study has analyzed self-report data from youth meeting diagnostic criteria for OCD or ADs. This study included 86 youth with OCD, 82 youth with ADs, and 46 youth without psychiatric disorders.

Teoretiska perspektiv: De perspektiv som har utgjort rapportens teoretiska grund är primärt intressentmodellen, legitimitetsteorin och
Amyloid β 42 (Aβ42) is one of the peptides associated with Alzheimer's Disease (AD) due to its aggregation propensity which in the end causes neuronal damage. Much is yet to be understood on how the aggregation processes occurs but most importantly the toxic species responsible have not been identified yet. It is believed that transient oligomeric species are involved in the process. The lack
Gruvdrift i yttre rymden har under de senaste åren vuxit fram som en reell möjlighet. Privata företag ligger i bräschen med att utveckla ny teknik för att uppnå utnyttjandet av resurser i yttre rymden. De rättsliga förutsättningarna är fortfarande ett hinder för sådana aktiviteter då de stora rymdfördragen inte uttryckligen förbjuder eller tillåter det. Problemet kring denna typ av gruvdrift har aMining in outer space has in recent years emerged as a real possibility. Private companies are at the forefront of developing new technology to achieve the exploitation of resources in outer space. The legal conditions are still a barrier because of that the large space treaties do not expressly prohibit or allows such a venture. The problem surrounding this type of mining has materialized even mo
Urban transportation is becoming increasingly challenging in the face of growing cities, urban sprawl and a rising trend in car use. Beyond the direct impacts of motorized transports, the development of extensive car infrastructure exacerbates social differences, especially in urban areas. The social dimension of transport is however marginalized in the current model of transport planning and sign
Cultural integration is a special type of European integration that is generally neglected by the researchers but is slowly growing in importance. In this thesis, the process of cultural integration has been examined by analysing the cultural policies contained in the treaties and policy documents of the European Union as well as the political messages contained in the cultural projects realised w
This paper highlights the complexity and ambiguity regarding the phenomenon of so called honour-related violence and oppression and explores how these matters are taken into consideration in the field of social work. In order to explore this field of study we used qualitative research as the method of inquiry. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with six female social workers working with pe
