We have used the beam-foil technique to measure the decay of the 3p2P1/2,2P3/2 and 3d2D3/2,2D5/2 levels in Ar VIII and the 3s3p ‘P, 3s3d ' D, 3p1 lS, and 'D levels in Ar VII. Applying the ANDC method of analysis, accurate lifetimes for the 3p2P1/2,2P3/2 and 3s3p1P levels have been determined. The corresponding oscillator strengths are found to be in very good agreement with theoretical values. A c
Lifetime measurements are presented for the ls2p3P1, 2 levels for He-like C V and N VI. From the measured lifetimes, transition probabilities are deduced for both allowed and spin-forbidden transitions. The values for the 1s23S0-1s2p3P1 transition rates, 0.29 × 108 and 1.38 × 108 s-1 for C V and N VI respectively, are found to be in good agreement with theory.
The lifetime of the 3s3p1P term in Mg-like S V has been determined by beam-foil spectroscopy in combination with detailed analyses of cascading processes by means of the ANDC technique. One of the most important cascade transitions was found to be seriously blended by a strong S VII transition. An earlier proposed method for appling the ANDC formalism to correct for blending has been tested for th
This laboratory study examined human stair ascending capacity and constraining factors including legs’ local muscle fatigue (LMF) and cardiorespiratory capacity. Twenty-five healthy volunteers, mean age 35.3 years, with maximal oxygen uptake (VO2max) of 46.7 mL·min-1·kg-1, and maximal heart rate of 190 bpm, ascended on a stair machine at 60% and 75% (3 min each), and 90% of VO2max (5 min or until
The changing structure of the Swedish university system has shaped its corps of university teachers. The analytical device used to demonstrate this connection is the changing social functions of Swedish universities which serve as the lens through which we understand this change. We argue for five successive and historically added layers of functions: the training of church officials, state functi
This article presents a short biographiclal account of Göran Therborns early years, hist studies, his early contribtions to sociology as well as to the New Left and the Marxist discussions in the 1960's and the 1970's, with a focus on the Swedish context.
In 1997 Sweden was the third biggest exporter of popular music in the world. This astonishing fact has often been explained as being the result of the large investments in municipal music schools that took place in Sweden from 1940. The explanation holds an interesting paradox. Most municipal music schools began with the aim to teach young people appreciate more valuable music (i.e. classical) tha
In the early 1980s many social theorists claimed that the ‘New Social Movements’ (NSMs) were the authentic social movements of our time. This claim is discussed in relation to two traditions in the analysis of social movements. The ‘American’ tradition focuses on the single-issue movement of a protest and mobilizing character. The ‘European’ tradition focuses on the relation between major societa
Sweden experienced a dramatic shakeout of the older workforce in the first half of the 1990s as part of the economic crisis 1991-94. The labour force participation rates and, even more pronounced the employment rates for the older workforce sank dramatically. However, when the Swedish economy recovered in the latter half of the 1990s the employment rates for the older workers, both for men and wom
En studie av ombuden vid Socialdemokraternas partikongress år 1969. Denna skrift är samling av fyra texter som beskriver en enkätundersökning av kongressombudens sociala bakgrund, utbildning, yrkesbana och deras organisatoriska förankring i ungdomsförbundet, partiet, fackföreningarna, i riks- och kommunalpolitiken m.m. Den innehåller följande fyra delar. 1. Inledning: Undersökningens tillkomst och
