We present new abundance determinations of neutron-capture elements Ge, Zr, Os, Ir, and Pt in a sample of 11 metal-poor (-3.1

This article explores the practical implementation of two innovative projects in Denmark and Sweden. The research is motivated by the high political interest for innovations as a modern quick fix to societal problems. Innovations are regarded as an all-round solution; however, research has mainly been focused on technical and economical factors without considering social problem solving. Utilizing

This paper discusses the problem of finding the controller that optimizes the expected H2-norm for an uncertain system. The paper gives a unification of many similar results. The approach is motivated by the so called stochastic embedding approach. A closed form solution is given using a minimum of calculations for a class of problems including interesting signal processing applications such as fe

The US EPA Method 1694 (which is specific to the analysis of pharmaceuticals and personal care products) was evaluated for analysis of selected hormones: 17a- and 17b-estradiol, estriol, estrone, 17a-ethynylestradiol, diethylstilbestrol, equilin, equilenin, testosterone, progesterone and norgestrel in filtered sewage influent/effluent and seawater. The extraction of hormones from fortified water m

The 14C content of 60 human blood serum samples from residents of Malmö (Sweden) in 1978, obtained from a biobank, has been measured to estimate the accuracy of 14C bomb-pulse dating. The difference between the date estimated by using the Calibomb software and sampling date varied between -3±0.4 and +0.2±0.5 years. The average age deviation of all samples was -1.5±0.7 years, with the delay between

The paper presents the two Swedish film workshops "Filmverkstan" and FilmCentrum" and discusses them as minor cinema practices. Besides sketching the history of the workshops, the paper presents an agenda for further research.

Snakes (Serpentes) are a diverse suborder of reptiles that, along with lizards and amphisbaenians, belong to the reptilian order Squamata. The phylogenetic position of snakes relative to lizards and amphisbaenians has been debated for about 140 years. Despite the many morphological and molecular studies that had been done, no consensus had been reached as to the phylogenetic position of snakes or

Popular Abstract in Swedish Förblandad förbränning har sedan lång tid tillbaka varit en av grundbultarna i industriellt applicerad förbränning såsom i bensinmotorer och gasturbiner. Genom att direkt kunna kontrollera blandningsförhållandet mellan bränsle och luft kan utsläppen av skadliga ämnen hållas på en minimal nivå. Detta gör förblandad förbränning mycket attraktiv. För att industriellt appliIn generally accepted and applied flamelet combustion models, a turbulent flame is mainly assumed distorted by the large-scale turbulence eddies, whereas small-scale turbulence effects on the local flamelet structures are neglected. However, in a lot of industrial applications rather high turbulent intensities are often imposed, which induce turbulence scales at ranges smaller than the flame thick
