Measurements of the Xi(-) and (Xi) over bar (+) masses, mass differences, lifetimes and lifetime differences are presented. The (Xi) over bar (+) sample used is much larger than those used previously for such measurements. In addition, the S production rates in Z -> b (b) over bar and Z -> q (q) over bar events are compared and the position xi* of the maximum of the distribution in Z -> q (q) over

Popular Abstract in Swedish Införandet av 1993 års skogspolitiska beslut med ett jämställt miljö- och produktionsmål, belyser den historiskt befästa konflikten mellan allmänintresse och egenintresse: statens vilja och behov att styra produktion och avkastning kontra den enskilde skogsägarens rätt att själv bestämma över sin skog. Idag har denna konflikt styrt över mot en statligt uttalad målsättniThis dissertation analyzes the changes in the way Swedish forest policy has been developed and implemented in the past few decades. Its primary focus is on the period from the adoption of new legislation governing forestry in 1993 to date, though the historical antecedents of the more recent developments are also discussed. The dissertation focuses primarily on the interplay between changes in the

Dilute solutions of catanionic vesicles formed by the mixed single-chained (sodium dodecylsulphate, SDS) and double-chained (didodecyldimethylammonium bromide, DDAB) surfactants have been investigated by differential scanning calorimetry. It is for the first time reported a gel-to-liquid crystal phase transition temperature, T-m, in this type of mixed vesicles. The SDS-rich vesicles (at X-SDS = 0.

I examined production of, and emergence from, diapausing eggs, together with planktonic dynamics of three cladoceran genera (Bosmina, Ceriodaphnia, and Daphnia) for 16 months in a shallow lake. In a complementary field experiment I manipulated environmental variables potentially important as cues for induction and termination of diapause. Ceriodaphnia and Daphnia, but not Bosmina, were dependent o

In this paper we address the test scheduling problem for system-on-chip designs. Different from previous approaches where it is assumed that all tests will be performed until completion, we consider the cases where the test process will be terminated as soon as a defect is detected. This is common practice in production test of chips. The proposed technique takes into account the probability of de

Vitamin D (vit D) deficiency is common in the elderly, and the aim of this study was to investigate whether vit D deprivation in ovariectomized (ovx) and normal rats would reduce fracture strength. Forty mature female Wistar rats were randomized into four groups: two were ovariectomized (ovx) and two were sham-operated (sham). One ovx and one sham group were fed a vit D-deficient diet (Ovx-D and S

Objectives To elucidate risk factors for high state anxiety in women referred for colposcopy. Design Prospective cohort study. Setting Department of Gynaecology, Malmo University Hospital, Sweden. Population A total of 100 consecutive women referred for colposcopy for the first time after an abnormal cervical smear. Methods Women in the study group completed prior to colposcopy the State-Trait Anx

Vertebral fractures are associated with back pain and disability. There are, however, few prospective data looking at back pain and disability following identification of radiographic vertebral fracture. The aim of this analysis was to determine the impact of radiographically identified vertebral fracture on the subsequent occurrence of back pain and disability. Women aged 50 years and over were r

Models can play a fundamental role while moving from nourishment projects to nourishment plans, i.e., when nourishment becomes an integral component of a coastal management strategy. Planning nourishment in the context of a multi-years management strategy requires more significant prediction skills than available in the past and an awareness of dealing with uncertainty. The present paper introduce

The copolymer of N-isopropylacrylamide (NIPAM) and methacryloyl derivative of spirobenzopyran (MSBP) with a molecular weight of 21 000 g/mol and the average molar MSBP content of 1.9% was prepared by free radical polymerization. The copolymer displayed its phase transition in water in the temperature range of 30-50 degreesC. UV irradiation of its aqueous solution caused photoinduced transformation

Two methylcelluloses (MC) were investigated by partial hydrolysis followed by direct infusion electrospray ionisation mass spectrometry (ESI-MS). Partial hydrolysis was achieved either enzymatically or by acid hydrolysis. Enzyme hydrolysis was performed using the endoglucanase Bacillus agaradhaerens Cel 5a. Three different hydrolysis buffer solutions were investigated in order to deter-mine which

The effects on the energy situation in industry when gas fired liquid heaters replace steam have been determined by energy surveys performed in a brewery and a slaughterhouse, measurements of the performance and emissions from liquid heaters installed in these industries, and theoretical analyses of the potential energy saving. The theoretical study in the first part of the project provides infor

The computation of the Capon and the amplitude and phase estimation (APES) filters can be very time consuming. The burden lies not only in the inversion of the sample covariance matrix, but also in the matrix multiplications. In this paper, we propose an efficient algorithm for the computation of the above mentioned filters, using Cholesky factorization and fast Fourier transforms. Furthermore, we
