The study investigates explicit and implicit knowledge of article semantics in 26 second language learners of English. Their first languages, Russian and Belarusian, lack articles. The research question is whether explicit knowledge, operationalised as an ability to explain what principle governs the choice between the definite and the indefinite article in a multiple-choice test, is associated wi

It is generally accepted that there were well-established relationships between castles and commerce in medieval Sweden. However, to date, the complexities of those relationships have arguably not been fully explored. Through focusing on archaeological evidence from three very different examples, Stockholm, Borgholm and Piksborg, this paper seeks to illustrate the variety of often intimate and com

Partially Premixed Combustion (PPC) has shown its potential by combining high combustion controllability with emission characteristics that are close to those of an HCCI engine. In order to get PPC the ignition delay needs to be long enough for the fuel and air to mix prior to combustion. This can be achieved by injecting the fuel sufficiently early while running with high EGR.In order to find outPartially Premixed Combustion (PPC) has shown its potential by combining high combustion controllability with emission characteristics that are close to those of an HCCI engine.

During WWII, the botanist Hylander (1943, 1949) studied the floristic composition of lawns in 249 landscape gardens mostly in Sweden and concluded that they all harboured multiple, but largely the same, non-native species and genotypes that had most likely been introduced together by the sowing of some im- ported grass seed mix. As demonstrated by the later additions by, for example, Ohlsén (1947)

This paper concerns the Youth House, Ungdomshuset, and the struggle over it 2006-2008. Arguing that the protests after the eviction of the squatted house created collective identities that are paradigmatic in relation to other social movements and using social movement research combined with marxist human geography the paper investigates the relation of rhizomatic structures, urban material confli

X-Ray absorption edge and EXAFS spectra of the solvated cations of platinum(II) in water, dimethyl sulfoxide and acetonitrile and of palladium(II) in dimethyl sulfoxide have been recorded and analyzed. The cations are four-coordinated. Pt-O in Pt(H2O)4(2+) is 2.01(1) angstrom and Pt-N in Pt(CH3CN)4(2+) is 2.00(1) angstrom. The dimethyl sulfoxide solvated cations of both platinum and palladium contX-Ray absorption edge and EXAFS spectra of the solvated cations of platinum(II) in water, dimethyl sulfoxide and acetonitrile and of palladium(II) in dimethyl sulfoxide have been recorded and analyzed.

The aim of this article is to study how selected variables influence delays in train traffic. Data has been collected on train movements, timetables, weather and capacity utilization on a highly utilized single-track railway line in southern Sweden during 2014. Based on this dataset, we have analysed how different factors affect delays in passenger traffic. We measure delays in a novel way, as dev

In the 20th century, Sweden distinguished itself as one of the most organized and participatory democracies in the world. But in the late 19th century the situation was much the opposite – Sweden had for Western Europe a low degree of suffrage, and low political participation. To explain the turnaround, this paper explores the evolution of a democratic political culture in the final third of the 1

AbstractBackground: Around one fourth of patients with colorectal cancer present themselves with distant metastases at the time of diagnosis, and one additional one fifth of the patients will develop distant metastases during the disease, most commonly in the liver.
