Magnetit är ett mineral med ferrimagnetiska egenskaper, vilket betyder att det har två magnetiska moment riktade mot varandra. Men ett av dessa moment är dock starkare än det andra vilket gör att ett netto-magnetiskt moment bildas. Detta gör att en bit magnetit kan fungera som en vanlig handmagnet. Dessa magnetiska egenskaper hos mineralet drog tidigt till sig uppmärksamhet i gamla tider och magneThe ambition of this project is to assist in the pursuance of understanding the metal to insulator transition found in magnetite at ~120 K. The transition is itself very complex and links together the charge order, orbital order and lattice distortion of magnetite with its magnetic properties. To be able to research these relationships on a more advanced level, synchrotron methods are necessary. F

Positive aspects of fathers’ involvement in parenting are broadly recognized, but challenges faced by fathers are often neglected and postpartum depression (PPD) is still mainly considered as a problem of mothers.

A software system composed of applications running on embedded devices could be hard to monitor and debug due to the limited possibilities to extract information about the complex process interactions. Logging and monitoring the systems behavior help in getting an insight of the system status. The information gathered can be used for improving the system and helping developers to understand what c

In this report we take a new approach to product recommendation. We investigate the the possibility of using a hybrid recommender consisting of contentbased clustering and connections between clusters using collaborative filtering to make good product recommendations.

Höje å har de senaste 200 åren blivit 50 procent kortare och förlorat 90 procent av avrinningsområdets våtmarker. För att kunna klara av framtida behov gällande matproduktion och utbyggnad av städer krävs effektiv avvattning av landskapet. Traditionella diken är bra på att avvattna mark, men medför många nackdelar för biologisk mångfald och näringstransport från jordbruksmark till havet. Tvåstegsd

Amid the many food safety scandals and rapid urbanization, China’s peri-urban areas have recently witnessed the emergence of alternative food systems (AFSs). Situated in a context different from that of the West, their impact has remained poorly understood and under researched. This paper explores how Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) can enhance food security in China’s cities. Based on Polan

Nämndemän har varit med och påverkat dömandet i våra domstolar i mer än 800 år. Deras inflytande har varierat en del under århundradena men aldrig har de haft så stor domsmakt som idag. I tingsrätten dömer vanligtvis fyra domare varav en är juridiskt utbildad (ordföranden) och tre är nämndemän. I röstningsförfarandet väger allas röst lika tungt. Det är kommunfullmäktige som väljer vilka som ska siLay judges have been able to influence the judgments in our courts for more than 800 years. Their influence has varied somewhat over the centuries but never have they had such great judicial power as today. In District Courts there are usually four judges, one of whom is legally trained and three who are lay judges. In the voting process every judge has the same power. The city council decides who
