The transition quadrupole moments Q(t) for the superdeformed band in Ca-40 have been determined through thin-target Doppler-shift attenuation analyses. A best-fit value of Q(t)=1.30+/-0.05 e b is obtained when a single value is assumed for the entire band. Fitting separate quadrupole moments for in-band transitions decaying from the high-spin states and the presumably admixed low-spin states resul
Background Up-to-date evidence about levels and trends in disease and injury incidence, prevalence, and years lived with disability (YLDs) is an essential input into global, regional, and national health policies. In the Global Burden of Disease Study 2013 (GBD 2013), we estimated these quantities for acute and chronic diseases and injuries for 188 countries between 1990 and 2013. Methods Estimate
A new parameterization is proposed to link the droplet number concentration to the size distribution and chemical composition of aerosol and updraft velocity. Except for an empirical assumption of droplet growth, the parameterization is formulated almost entirely on first principles to allow for satisfactory performance under a variety of conditions. For a series of updraft velocity ranging from 0
Popular Abstract in English In this thesis we investigate the manipulation of the magnetic properties of molecular magnets by means of external electric fields. This manipulation is mediated by either the spin-electric coupling or the magnetic anisotropy of the molecular magnet. In order to understand what this means, let us first explain some basic concepts about magnetism. We will start explainiThis dissertation investigates theoretically electric control of the magnetic properties of molecular magnets. Two classes of magnetic molecules are considered. The first class consists of molecules that are spin frustrated. As a consequence of the frustration, the ground-state manifold of these molecules is characterized by states of different spin chirality, which can be coupled by an external e
The feasibility of 17 beta-estradiol (E2) and 17 alpha-ethynylestradiol (EE2) removal by Trametes versicolor was demonstrated in batch and continuous cultures. In batch, E2 and EE2 initially supplied at 10 mg l(-1) were removed by more than 97% in 24 h, which corresponded to volumetric removal rates of 0.43 and 0.44 mg l(-1) h(-1), respectively. A bioreactor inoculated with T versicolor pellets wa
Trepanations have been performed in many parts of theworld from the Late Stone Age u p to the present time.The "essence" of trepanations i s discussed from a Scan-dinavian viewpoint. Source-critical aspects, methodolog-ical questions and problems of representativeness aredealt with. The Swedish material exhibits strong maledominance during the Stone Age, Bronze Age and IronAge, whereas the Medieva
The influence of different dryer fabrics on the contact coefficient has been studied experimentally under various conditions. A bench-scale drying apparatus, in which the fabric could be fixed at variable tensions, was used in the experiments. A technique for measuring the heat flux and surface temperatures of the paper sample and the hot surface was developed. Three paper grades were used in the
A novel calcium-independent serine protease from an alkaliphilic bacterium, Nesterenkonia sp. AL20, has been purified and crystallized at 296 K using sodium formate as the main precipitant. This enzyme is optimally active at pH 10, exhibits high stability towards autolytic digestion and its stability is not affected by the presence of EDTA or detergents. The triangular prism-shaped crystals diffra
I svensk rätt är inte medverkan till självmord straffbart annat än i de fall då agerandet kan anses falla inom ordalydelsen för mordparagrafen i BrB. Men varför är inte medverkan till självmord kriminaliserat när samtyckesdödande alltid är det? I denna framställning undersöks gällande rätt avseende gränsdragningen mellan medverkan till självmord och samtyckesdödande. Dessutom undersöks StraffrättsBy Swedish criminal law it is illegal to take someone’s life regardless of consent. However, abetment of suicide is not criminalized apart from cases in which the action or omission can be implicated in the wording of the Penal Code. Why is not abetment of suicide as such criminalised when consensual homicide in all cases is unlawful? The established law regarding the distinction between abetment
Organized crime in Sweden has increased despite the Government’s 34-point action program against gang crime. Previous studies show that schools have an important role in preventing young people from entering the criminal life. But there are no Swedish studies that examine teachers’ implementation of crime prevention measures and therefore, there seems to be a need to investigate this. The research
