Möt kvinnorna och männen bakom de stora verken om mänskligheten: Margaret Mead, James Frazer, Knud Rasmussen, Claude Lévi-Strauss m.fl. Antropologiska porträtt är en serie biografiska essäer om antropologer skrivna av antropologer – en odyssé i tid och rum som spänner över två sekel från Amazonas och Thule till Mloda Polskas Kraków och intelligentsians Paris. Antropologiska porträtt är en lättillg

Arkiven var en av de många nya byggnadstyper som växte fram i Europa under 1800-talet. I Sverige uppfördes det första specialbyggda landsarkivet i Lund efter framför allt dansk förebild. Visserligen kan man spåra likheter med svenska Riksarkivet som uppfördes några år tidigare, men det är ändå tydligt att det starkaste släktskapet var med tre samtida danska provinsarkiv. Denna dansk-svenska grupp

Combinatorial screening methodology has been employed to select new affinity specific ligands to bilogical and artificial receptors. The screening methodology, in particular screening of combinatorial phage display peptide libraries against target molecules differing in function and shape, is focused upon. A linear combinatorial phage display hexapeptide library has been used to select novel pept

Low-density parity-check convolutional (LDPCC) codes, also known as spatially coupled LDPC codes, can be decoded using a message passing algorithm. In order to limit decoding latency and complexity, windowed decoding can be applied. Updates within the window can be performed either in parallel or serially. However, simulation results show that uniform updating schedules do not provide the expected

Sweden is part of a small European minority in the perceived societal gain of PPP. After a pilot PPP project in late 1990’s no additional project has been started in Sweden. Although there is interest from both public infrastructure clients and construction companies the national government has very clearly stated that infrastructure projects should be procured in a traditional way where all fundi

Net paper readers have been shown to read deeper into articles than newspaper readers. It has also been claimed that newspaper readers rather scan than read newspapers. Do these findings mean that net paper readers read proportionally more than newspaper readers? This paper presents results showing that in fact net paper readers scan more and read less than newspaper readers. We furthermore invest

DNA-dependent protein kinase (DNA-PK) is a holoenzyme consisting of a regulatory subunit, the heterodimeric Ku70/86, and a catalytic subunit known as DNA-dependent protein kinase catalytic subunit (DNA-PKcs). DNA-PK takes part in a number of cellular functions including growth control, immunoglobulin gene rearrangement and DNA repair. The Ku86 subunit of DNA-PK has been reported to exist in human

A density-matrix theory is employed to study dynamical effects in a THz quantum cascade laser. Varying the tunnel coupling across the injection barrier by changing the barrier width, different regimes are distinguished where stationary and dynamics-induced localization effects are found and discussed.
