A search for new-physics resonances decaying into a lepton and a jet performed by the ATLAS experiment is presented. Scalar leptoquarks pair-produced in pp collisions at s = 13 TeV at the Large Hadron Collider are considered using an integrated luminosity of 139 fb−1, corresponding to the full Run 2 dataset. They are searched for in events with two electrons or two muons and two or more jets, incl
The real-world impact of psychosis prevention is reliant on effective strategies for identifying individuals at risk. A transdiagnostic, individualized, clinically-based risk calculator to improve this has been developed and externally validated twice in two different UK healthcare trusts with convincing results. The prognostic performance of this risk calculator outside the UK is unknown. All ind
In four previous case-control studies we have shown an association between exposure to phenoxyacetic acids or chlorophenols and soft-tissue sarcoma (STS). These chemicals are contaminated by dioxins and dibenzofurans, some of which are known carcinogens in experimental animals. In a meta-analysis of our four studies we studied such exposure including the relation to tumour localization and histopa
A 4π radiation dosemeter for use in medical radiology was designed. It is based on a solid state silicon detector, a sensor wafer, a flex card, a 3D plastic holder and a spherical stainless steel filter with a distribution of holes around the detector. The detector is attached to the wafer using only low Z material. To achieve an energy and directional response which is as uniform as possible for
Background: CSF and PET biomarkers of amyloid β and tau accurately detect Alzheimer's disease pathology, but the invasiveness, high cost, and poor availability of these detection methods restrict their widespread use as clinical diagnostic tools. CSF tau phosphorylated at threonine 181 (p-tau181) is a highly specific biomarker for Alzheimer's disease pathology. We aimed to assess whether blood p-t
Several models of physics beyond the Standard Model predict the existence of dark photons, light neutral particles decaying into collimated leptons or light hadrons. This paper presents a search for long-lived dark photons produced from the decay of a Higgs boson or a heavy scalar boson and decaying into displaced collimated Standard Model fermions. The search uses data corresponding to an integra
Syfte: Syftet med kandidatuppsatsen är att beskriva och undersöka hur nedskrivningsprövning av goodwill i enlighet med IAS 36 har gått till och redovisats i fem goodwillintensiva börsnoterade koncerner under perioden 2005 - 2013. Metod: Uppsatsen är utformad som en fallstudie med kvalitativ ansats. Data¬insamlingen består uteslutande av sekundärdata, med ett stort fokus på objektens årsredovisningPurpose: The purpose of the thesis is to describe and investigate how five public groups with significant goodwill have accounted their goodwill impairment testing in accordance with IAS 36 standard during the time period of 2005 - 2013. Methodology: The thesis is shaped as a case study with a qualitative approach. The collection of data consists solely of secondary data collected through annual r
Colombia, as many Latin-American countries have designed a series of welfare programs in order to relief poverty, due to the crisis experimented during the 90s. Hence, the present research estimate the impact on earnings of one of the welfare program implemented in Colombia “Empleo en Acción” and see the possible forgone income from participate in the program. Thereby, based on Diff-Diff method th
Abstract Title: The Power of Devotion: The Warm Embrace of Brand Control Authors: Axel Fredlund and Johannes Gustavsson Supervisor: John Murray Course: BUSN49, Degree Project in Master’s Programme, Managing People, Knowledge and Change, 15 ECTS Purpose: This thesis aimed to explore how subjects of brand-centered control perform emotional labour. The focus of our study is how brand-centered
Keywords: Retro branding, message framing, message sequencing, nostalgia proneness, consumer innovativeness, willingness to try, Fast-moving consumer goods, new product brands, retail environment. Purpose: The study addresses the limited understanding of retro branding´s effectiveness in retail environments, particularly for new FMCG product brands without established heritage. It explores how
The room impulse response (RIR) is an important function describing how sound reflects and propagates in a room. The inverse problem of estimating the impulse response from source and measurement signals is often of interest in various audio applications, but can become ill-posed if there is not enough information. Using regularization, one can impose prior physicality assumptions to the estimator
There are arguments around the nature and boundaries of the moral domain, with this current paper aiming to delineate one of these arguments. With a basis in George Sher's (2021) discussion of cognitions (beliefs, fantasies, attitudes and some thoughts), the paper defends the notion that they are, in fact, morally relevant. By combining the logic of truth-aptness with the phenomenology of agen
Civil society organizations and in particular LGBTIQA+ organizations tend to be naturally perceived as diverse. However, including ethnic/racial minorities in civil society organizations has its difficulties. The Israeli-Palestinian conflict adds another dimension that makes it even more complicated. Therefore, it is crucial to investigate how Israeli LGBTQIA+ organizations and projects discuss in
Bakgrund: Hippoterapi och hästsimulator har vuxit fram som kompletterande interventioner vid neurologisk rehabilitering genom att utnyttja hästens eller simulatorns tredimensionella rörelsemönster. Tidigare forskning pekar generellt på förbättrad balans, gång, grovmotorik och funktionsförmåga vid flera neurologiska tillstånd. Den optimala behandlingsdosen för att uppnå önskade och varaktiga effekt
”’Till livet!’: Fallet, identitetstematik och den Andre i tre pjäser av August Strindberg” undersöker fallmotivet som spatial händelse samt dess konsekvenser i tre pjäser av August Strindberg: Lycko-Pers resa (1882), Fröken Julie (1888) och Ett drömspel (1902). Ämnesvalet grundar sig i iakttagelsen att Strindberg återkommande använder rumsligt vertikala uttryck – något som tidigare inte har ägnats
ISIS committed mass atrocities against the Yazidis (Kurdish: Êzîdîs) in Sinjar (Kurdish: Şingal), Iraq, in 2014-2017. Several international and regional observers have qualified the acts as genocide under international law. Yet the numerous social, cultural, and political preconditions of the genocide are not recognized in the 1948 Genocide Convention. To answer the line of question, Susan Opotow’
This paper investigates how compassion with and understanding for the suffering of the other is constructed by the media and why certain choices are made with respect to coverage and framing. Articles published in the Swedish newspaper Dagens Nyheter in relation to three different cases that all take place in Haiti have been surveyed by using quantitative content analysis and qualitative textual a
