Den sorterande ordningsmakten - Studier av etnicitet och polisiär kontroll

Polisforskare talar idag om ”den utökade polisfamiljen”. Den traditionella polisen kompletteras av kommunala, privata och frivilliga organisationer eller grupperingar. Samtidigt står etniska minoriteter alltmer i centrum för samhällets kontrollapparat. Etnicitet har blivit en delikat fråga för myndigheter. Den här antologin uppmärksammar skärningspunkten mellan dessa två processer. På vilka sätt

Prime time trauma - historia och television

A full century ago, H. G. Wells said that a hand seemed to have descended from the sky and turned man’s face towards the future. Wells wrote in an era which saw a new world appear through the progress of technology. Today we may be just as attracted to new technology, but that great hand seems to have come down again and turned man’s head back towards the past. Our own time is characterized by an

Moberg, Axel (1872-1955)

A biographival entry on Professor Axel Moberg, a famous Swedish Syriac scholar who was professor of Near-Eastern languages at Lund University, Sweden, 1908-1937, and Vice Chancellor of the same university, 1926-1936.

Glass mat reinforced thermoplastics - material, process and selected applications.

The work presented in this thesis covers the processing of glass mat reinforced thermoplastics, GMT, and the mechanical properties of this material group. The thesis evaluates the possibilities of the material group from a processing and mechanical properties point of view. An improved method for measurement of fibre matrix adhesion has been developed. A new test equipment have been developed, whi

Trädgård - kultiverad natur?

Naturen för mig. Nutida röster och kulturella perspektiv är en bok som behandlar människors vardagliga förhållningssätt till naturen i vår egen tid. Boken handlar om naturen utifrån kulturvetenskapliga perspektiv och sätter människan i centrum. De erfarenheter, tankar och berättelser som boken bygger på, vittnar om att detta ämne för många är stort och svårgripbart. Till stor del bygger boken på

Beyond Survival - Cognition after Pediatric Brain Tumor

Popular Abstract in Swedish Bakgrund Hjärntumör hos barn är en relativt ovanlig sjukdom som drabbar cirka 70 barn i Sverige årligen. Under de senaste 40 åren har överlevnaden i barnhjärntumör ökat avsevärt från under 40 % till över 70 %. Överlevnaden har inte varit utan pris och många barn får kognitiva svårigheter efter behandlingen, t.ex. problem med långsamhet, dåligt minne, bristande uppmärksaBackground: Pediatric Brain Tumor (PBT) survivors suffer from cognitive sequelae, especially within the areas of cognitive tempo, attention, executive function and memory. The cognitive difficulties are often accentuated over the years, but knowledge about the long term trajectory is still scarce. Aim: The aim of this thesis was to examine cognitive sequelae after Pediatric Brain Tumor (PBT); ris

Streptococcal protein Rib and related proteins: a family of repetitive surface proteins that elicit protective immunity

Popular Abstract in Swedish SAMMANFATTNING PÅ SVENSKA Grupp B streptokocker (GBS) Grupp B streptokocker (GBS), på latin Streptococcus agalactiae, är det vanligaste fyndet vid bakteriella infektioner, som blodförgiftning (sepsis), hjärnhinneinflammation (meningit) och lunginflammation (pneumoni) hos nyfödda barn. Sjukdomsförloppet är ofta våldsamt och livshotande. Sedan 1970-talet har det skett enABSTRACT Streptococci constitute a heterogeneous group of Gram-positive bacteria, divided into different serological groups on the basis of antigenic differences in a cell wall-associated carbohydrate. This thesis describes related surface proteins expressed by bacteria in two of these groups, the group B streptococcus (GBS) and the group A streptococcus (GAS). GBS is an encapsulated bacterium th

Revisiting the structure of the p(4x4) surface oxide on Ag(111)

Scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) and density-functional theory are used to reexamine the structure of the renowned p(4×4)-O/Ag(111) surface oxide. The accepted structural model [C. I. Carlisle et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 84, 3899 (2000)] is incompatible with the enhanced resolution of the current STM measurements. An "Ag6 model" is proposed that is more stable than its predecessor and accounts for

A New Method for Quantifying Fire Growth Rates Using Statistical and Empirical Data – Applied to Determine the Effect of Arson

When designing fire safety of buildings the fire growth rate is an important parameter, in large affecting the overall fire safety level within the building. Generally, a deterministic fire growth rate is used raising the question whether the resulting design arrives at a reasonable level of safety. A method was developed to obtain distributions of fire growth rates in specific building types.
