In order to promote phase separation and properties of anion-exchange membranes (AEMs)we have prepared polysulfones with an exceptionally high local concentration of imidazolium groups. Statistical copolymers containing single dioxyphenylene rings directly functionalized with four cationic groups were synthesized by polycondensations of 4,4’-dichlorodiphenylsulfone, 4,4′-isopropylidenediphenol and
The mill in Lilla Harrie vas belonging to noble families in the medieval period. It was confiscated by the king in 1502 and sold to the archbishop in 1509. By the reformation in the 1530:ies it again came to be owned by the king. It belonged to the castle in Landskrona and in the royal archives it is possible to follow the developement of the mill in detail up to the swedish conquest in 1658. Then
A leaky lens antenna system for short pulse applications is designed, fabricated and characterized. The antenna has very good phase center stability over large bandwidths. The leaky lens antenna is connected to an in-house wavelet generator to transmit 100 ps pulses centered at 57.5 GHz. It is shown that the antenna preserves the reference pulse shape and has very low dispersion.
In the beginning of the 1990s, Sweden experienced an economic recession. The unemployment rate increased significantly and the proportion of young adults receiving social assistance rose dra-matically. In response, municipalities initiated local intervention programs aimed at reducing the number of young social assistance recipients. In 2005, this population had decreased. However, the organizatio
The aim of this study was to assess the clinical value of preoperative blood levels of HE4 as a predictor of overall survival in patients with ovarian cancer and to validate previous data of HE4 and the ROMA algorithm including HE4 and CA125 in discriminating benign and malignant ovarian tumors. Experimental design: The preoperative plasma levels of HE4 and CA125 were analyzed with ELISA in 312 pa
Dabbling ducks (Anas spp.) are important migratory quarry species, protected as a shared resource under international legislation. However, there is a lack of sufficient high-quality data on vital demographic rates and long-term trends in numbers to judge the conservation status of many duck populations at the flyway level. In response to reported declines in the North-West European flyway populat
Recent studies have shown that the polar bear matriline (mitochondrial DNA) evolved from a brown bear lineage since the late Pleistocene, potentially indicating rapid speciation and adaption to arctic conditions. Here, we present a high-resolution data set from multiple independent loci across the nuclear genomes of a broad sample of polar, brown, and black bears. Bayesian coalescent analyses plac
Research on creativity focuses extensively on it as a personal skill or discusses how an organization can contribute to a creative environment for its staff. Rather than referring to the organization as the environment, this paper concerns interorganizational and intraorganizational interaction between different creative individuals who together shape the creative process and output. Specifically,
Study of the reception of the Danish TV-series 1864.
Here we present research methods and results obtained by the Nordic Centre of Excellence Biosphere-Aerosol-Cloud-Climate Interactions (BACCI) between 1 January 2003 and 31 December 2007. The centre formed an integrated attempt to understand multiple, but interlinked, biosphere-atmosphere interactions applying inter and multidisciplinary approaches in a coherent manner. The main objective was to st
Hållbarhet och hållbar utveckling är ett begrepp som används ofta i samband med planering. Den här studien ingår i ett större forskningsprojekt ” Den motsägelsefulla urbanismen – om ekonomisk, social och ekologisk planering av det nya stadslandskapet”. Syftet med föreliggande studie är att beskriva och analysera hur hållbarhetsbegreppet använts och definierats i ett antal översiktsplaner och vilka
The aim of this thesis, The Historical Novel and Historical Consciousness in ten- to twelve-year-olds - Maj Bylocks Drakskeppstrilogi in Theory and Practice, is to illustrate the possibilities for pupils of the ages between ten to twelve to develop their historical consciousness by participating in classroom work making use of fiction as a central source of knowledge.

Taking seriously the oft-made claim that power relations are central to school bullying, the dissertation focuses specifically on the interconnectedness of school bullying and power relations within the specific context of Vietnamese lower secondary schooling. The dissertation is based on extended ethnographic fieldwork in two lower secondary schools in the north-eastern Vietnamese port city of Ha
Given a topological dynamical system Sigma = (X, sigma), where X is a compact Hausdorff space and a a homeomorphism of X, we introduce the Banach *-algebra crossed product l(1) (E) most naturally associated with Sigma and initiate its study. It has a richer structure than its well investigated C*-envelope, as becomes evident from the possible existence of non-self-adjoint closed ideals. We link it
Background: Mild to moderate cognitive impairment is common amongst long-term survivors of cardiac arrest. In the Target Temperature Management trial (TTM-trial) comatose survivors were randomized to 33 degrees C or 36 degrees C temperature control for 24 hours after cardiac arrest and the effects on survival and neurological outcome assessed. This protocol describes a sub-study of the TTM-trial i
