The Light Dark Matter eXperiment (LDMX) is an upcoming experiment to test the existence of dark matter in the mass range of 1 MeV - 1 GeV. It does so by looking for missing momentum and energy in collisions of an electron beam and a tungsten target, which could potentially indicate the existence of dark matter. One of the main detector components of LDMX is the hadronic calorimeter, which is used

This essay mainly examines the Police's crime prevention work in the city of Uddevalla. Through interviews and a document study, successes and setbacks in crime prevention work and collaboration between different actors are explored. Crime prevention is constantly evaluated, studied and examined, both internally and externally, but it appears that it is difficult to arrive at a clear answer ab

The aim of this study was to research how ISIS-returnees were portrayed by Swedish media in order to understand the impact media’s portrayal of ISIS-returnees may have on media consumers' attitudes towards these individuals. This was done by a qualitative content analysis of 26 articles from two different Swedish news sites, named SVT Nyheter and Samtiden. The results were analyzed based on po

Combustion of fossil fuels is single-handedly the largest contributor of global warming. The transportation sector is responsible for about a third of the greenhouse gas emissions yearly in Sweden. In turn, road traffic makes up the largest share within the transportation. The Swedish government has set out an ambitious goal to reduce domestic carbon emissions caused by the transportation sector

Molnens roll i klimatsystemet har studerats och deras påverkan på solens inverkan på jordens energibalans. Jordens albedo påverkar energibalansen genom att den påverkar hur mycket av solens instrålning som reflekteras eller absorberas. Moln påverkar jordens albedo och spelar därför en viktig roll i denna balans. Molnbildning sker till nära 100% i troposfären och där finns allt det vi kallar väder.The role of clouds in the climate system has been studied and their impact on the Sun's impact on the Earth's energy balance. The Earth's albedo affects the energy balance by influencing how much of the Sun’s radiation is reflected or absorbed. Clouds affect the Earth's albedo and therefore play an important role in this balance. Cloud formation occurs almost 100% in the tropospher

I den här kandidatuppsatsen har relationerna mellan kognitiv empati (perspektivtagande), emotionell empati (empatisk omsorg), kreativitet och psykologisk flexibilitet undersökts. Hypoteserna för studien var att perspektivtagande har en positivt korrelation med både kreativitet och psykologisk flexibilitet, att empatisk omsorg korrelerar positivt med kreativitet och psykologisk flexibilitet, samt aIn this thesis, the relationship between cognitive empathy (perspective-taking), emotional empathy (empathetic concern), creativity and psychological flexibility was examined. The hypothesis for the study was that perspective-taking has a positive correlation with both creativity and psychological flexibility, that empathetic concern has a positive correlation with creativity and psychological fle

This paper examines literature on policies used to compensate households for rising energy costs, including in-kind transfers, cash transfers and VAT reductions. It also shows how targeted transfers stand against universal transfers, and how the policy measures affect energy consumption. The study shows that the differences between cash transfers and in-kind transfers are generally small, but that

Då användaren idag är den svagaste länken inom informationssäkerhet och den svaga punkten kopplat till utbildningen inom detta är bristande engagemang och motivation hos användaren. Gamification riktar sig mot att stärka just detta och är därför ett värdefullt verktyg. Men hur gamification verkligen används inom information security awareness utbildning är oklart. Därför har denna studie genomfört

Is food aid a catalyst for recovery following external shocks? Can it serve community development in persistently food insecure areas in the long run, or does it create a dependency trap? This research aims to provide insights into these questions by conducting a case study of a soup kitchen in the South African township Masakhane that was established as an emergency response following COVID-19. T

Gamification, användningen av spelelement i icke-spelrelaterade system, har blivit ett vanligt sätt att försöka påverka systemanvändares beteende och motivation, och så även inom gym- och träningsområdet. Många implementeringar av gamification inom dessa kategorier görs dock utan eftertanke eller anpassning till målgrupp och användningsområde. Genom en kvalitativ studie av ett befintligt spelifier

All government controlled business is controlled by the law of public procurement and its five fundamental principles. If these are not fulfilled the procurement is at risk of being subject to a review procedure, which requires both time and money. Therefore it is important to ensure the quality of these processes for contracting authorities such as Region Skåne, especially in conjunction with the

För att världen ska kunna uppnå de antagna miljö- och klimatmålen och miljöanpassas, krävs nya innovativa lösningar och tekniska försörjningssystem som minskar hälso- och miljöpåverkan och som kan hantera de oförutsedda händelser klimatförändringen medför. I takt med att större avfallsvolymer genereras, ökar behovet av antalet sopbilar och därmed hämtningsintervallen. Till följd av detta ökar trafMajor revolutionary and technological developments have taken place in the world, yet developments in waste management in particular have been slower than others and remained more or less unchanged through the years. The Swedish company Envac invented the stationary automated vacuum waste collection system AVAC, an underground pipe network where waste is transported through a vacuum technique to a

In a world where migration has dramatically increased over the last 30 years, migrant consumers have become an important market actor. When migrant consumers geographically relocate they potentially experience changes in their identity, while different factors influence their acculturation to the host culture. Consumer acculturation literature within Consumer Culture Theory has studied this topic

This paper studies the challenges of undocumented immigrant workers rights in Sweden and their access to labor rights with regards to migration regulations. It mainly aims to address three questions: 1) what are the available mechanisms, 2) how efficient are they, 3) what can be improved with respect to international frameworks that Sweden is signatory to. The findings of the paper demonstrate tha

his thesis investigates the effects of intra-ASEAN export flows on global FDI inflows into ASEAN member states. A panel dataset including all ten countries of the ASEAN is created to test these effects from 1992 to 2020. Linear regressions without and with fixed effects predict that intra-ASEAN exports have a positive and significant impact on FDI inflows into ASEAN countries. Furthermore, trade f

The development seen within industrial automation in recent years enables the emergence of manufacturing sites that utilise technology for improved productivity, quality and safety. Increased communication demands introduced by Industry 4.0 have motivated the development of cloud-fog automation; a technique characterised by wireless communication between lower levels of the automation pyramid. Spe

Byggasjälv-lösningar är ett koncept som består av prefabricerade element som icke fackmannamässiga personer ska kunna uppföra. I denna rapport undersöks det belgiska företaget Gabloks produkter som bygger på byggasjälv-metoden. Undersökningen utreder hur en yttervägg bestående av Gabloks element ställer sig emot det svenska klimatet med avseende på fukt och energi. Av särskilt intresse är risken fSelf-building is a concept that consists of prefabricated elements where non- professionals should be able to assemble these elements. This report examines the Belgian company Gablok, which is based on the self-building method. The study investigates how the solution of Gablok performs in the Swedish climate with focus on moisture and energy. The report is based on manual calculations, simulations

According to Swedish law the child must be involved in issues concerning the child, which means that during a child care investigation, the child's perspective must be obtained. The aim of this study was to explore how social workers relate to and apply laws on children's right to participation in child care investigations depending on age, maturity and function ability. The method used in
