Forensic DNA analysis applying PCR enables profiling of minute biological samples. Enhanced analysis conditions can be applied to further push the limit of detection, coming with the risk of visualising artefacts and allele imbalances. We have evaluated the consecutive increase of PCR cycles from 30 to 35 to investigate the limitations of low-template (LT) DNA analysis, applying the short tandem r
Popular Abstract in Swedish Kvantprickar är objekt där elektroner är instängda i en mycket liten volym (av storleksordningen 100 nanometer i varje riktning). I den här avhandlingen har vi studerat kvantprickar definierade i nanotrådar av halvledarmaterial. Nanotrådarna kan vara flera mikrometer långa men samtidigt mycket tunna (mindre än 100 nanometer eller 0,1 mikrometer). Vi har skapat kvantpri

Localization is an important enabling technology for many applications, such as wireless sensor networks, emergency rescue services, civil defense and transportation. Suppose that a room is equipped with several microphones (or sensors), and one person is making a sound while moving around in the room. Can one find microphone and sound source positions as well as reconstruct a room geometry? The a
Historian David Lowenthal (1985) has pointed out the past is often perceived and represented as “a foreign country” in which cultural heritage is implicitly understood to be bound to geographical territories and associated notions of what it implies to have roots, an identity, and a place in which to belong.

En bedömning av en utsaga är i sig komplex, men försvåras ytterligare när målsäganden är ett barn. För att säkerställa materiellt korrekta domar bör faktorerna som beaktas vid bevisvärderingen av en utsaga i största möjliga mån bygga på antaganden med stöd In cases regarding sexual offenses, the evidence often consists essentially of the victim’s testimony, which is why it becomes the main focus in the evaluation of evidence.
