What might a political demography of international law entail? Administration, governance, citizenship, the city, demos, people: but also the act of writing - inscribing; the act of inscription, of the making and unmaking of boundaries, of the binding together and keeping apart, of the making of peoples and the making of relations of subordination and bonds: demoi and sovereigns. And not the least

Newspapers and net papers are examples of complex multimodal documents consisting of texts, pictures and graphics. Although we encounter such documents in our everyday life, there is still little empirical evidence about how these formats are processed by readers. In our paper, we discuss myths about readers’ interaction with complex visual documents from the perspective of contrary empirical evid

The European Spallation Source (ESS) is a planned neutron source to be built in Lund, Sweden, which is planned to produce the first neutrons in 2019. It will have an average beam power at the target of 5 MW, an average current along the linac of 50 mA, and a pulse repetition rate and length of 20 Hz and 2.86 ms, respectively. The linac will have around 200 LLRF stations employed to control a varie

Popular Abstract in Swedish Fosterövervakning under förlossningen är standard inom förlossningsvården. Målet är att identifiera avvikande händelser och då speciellt syrebrist hos fostret. Sedan början på sjuttiotalet har vågformsanalys av foster EKG studerats ur fysiologisk, klinisk och signal synpunkt. Vågformen hos ett EKG innehåller mer information än bara R-R intervallet i ett EKG dvs konventiWaveform analysis of the fetal electrocardiogram has been studied since the early seventies from both physiological, signal processing and clinical aspects. It has been found to contain more useful information than the mere detection of RR-intervals (fetal heart rate), e.g., the ST-segment giving evidence of the ability of fetal myocardium to respond to the stress of labor. In the Swedish RCT, STA

Event-by-event fluctuations in the multiplicities of charged particles and photons at SPS energies are discussed. Fluctuations are studied by controlling the centrality of the reaction and rapidity acceptance of the detectors. Results are also presented on the event-by-event study of correlations between the multiplicity of charged particles and photons to search for DCC-like signals.

Using the Cayley-Hamilton theorem and unique solubility of scalar Volterra convolution equations of the second kind, the inverse problem of determining the four time-dependent susceptibility dyadics of a linear, homogeneous, bianisotropic slab from generic scattering data at oblique incidence is shown to be well posed. An explicit formula for the crucial step is given.

A central problem in scene analysis is the reconstruction of 3D-objects from 2D-line drawings, obtained by projections. Two important classes of objects are polyhedral and origami ("papermade") ones, where the difference is that in the latter case the objects need not be solid, but may partly consist of laminas.

During the past decade, production of products has increasingly been relocated to countries outside the western industrialised area, while consumption of the same products in the west has increased to a considerable extent. Implementation of national policies for limiting the environmental and health impacts of production has encountered a number of difficulties as a result. Policy instruments, no
