Andra världskriget har längre setts som den gränssättande händelsen i den moderna historien. Men kanske var andra världskriget bara första världskrigets sista slag. Det är första världskriget som är vår historiska urkatastrof, som under hundra år skapat nya konflikter, krig och folkmord, men också mer fredliga utvecklingar. De stora öppna såren i vår värld, på Balkan och Nordirland, i Mellanöstern
Abstract in Undetermined This paper describes a way to modify the K-Best Sphere Detector, using the knowledge that the real and the imaginary part of complex number are always orthogonal. To ensure that this property is used, a modification to the Real Value Decomposition is proposed that will ensure that the orthogonality is seen also after the decomposition. The proposed method allows for equall
The two major breast cancer susceptibility genes, BRCA1 and BRCA2, account for the majority of familial breast–ovarian cancer, but only a modest proportion of breast cancer families without ovarian or male breast cancer. Search for additional breast cancer genes with traditional linkage analysis has so far been unsuccessful, probably due to genetic heterogeneity. Pooling of families of different e
Thoughts and Perspectives - yes, a final summing-up - well... Prof. Hans Andersson's last lecture before his retirement, given on the 31th of October 2001.
A three-terminal ballistic junction (TBJ) is a device in which three quantum point contacts are coupled via a ballistic region. Previous studies have shown that the TBJs exhibit a novel electrical property which has potential applications in nanoelectronics. Here, based on our recent theoretical and experimental investigations, we will demonstrate that various nanoelectronic devices can be fabrica
Popular Abstract in Swedish Magnetkameran är ett diagnostiskt instrument med vilket man kan ta skiktbilder av kroppen. Den började användas i sjukvården för drygt 20 år sedan och baseras på ett fysikaliskt fenomen som kallas för kärnmagnetisk resonans (MR). Detta innebär att vissa atomkärnor som placeras i ett starkt magnetfält kan avge en radiosignal när de utsätts för korta radiopulser. RadiosigContrast-enhanced magnetic resonance angiography (CE-MRA) is a diagnostic method for imaging of vascular structures based on nuclear magnetic resonance. Vascular enhancement is achieved by injection of a contrast medium (CM). Studies were performed using two different types of CM: conventional paramagnetic CM, and a new type of CM based on hyperpolarized (HP) nuclei. The effects of varying CM con
An interesting class of intelligent tutoring systems are systems that are able to detect and recognize affective responses and states in students, and use such data to adapt its feedback, guidance and instruction. The article presents affective responses and states considered relevant for learning, and methods that have been proposed or used to detect such responses and states. We focus on the aff
The present thesis concerns middle-aged women’s subjective well-being (SWB). The interest is focused on the importance of childhood factors, social circumstances, and personality for middle-aged women’s general SWB. Data were taken from the longitudinal research program Individual Development and Adaptation (IDA, Magnusson & Bergman, 2000) and concerned a sample of about 300 women. The main an
Objective: To investigate glycaemic and satiating properties of potato products in healthy subjects using energy-equivalent or carbohydrate-equivalent test meals, respectively. Subjects and setting: Thirteen healthy subjects volunteered for the first study, and 14 for the second. The tests were performed at Applied Nutrition and Food Chemistry, Lund University, Sweden. Experimental design and te
Animals can detect different parameters of the geomagnetic field by two principal independent magnetoreception mechanisms: (1) a light-dependent process detecting the axial course and the inclination angle of the geomagnetic field lines, providing the animals with magnetic compass information (inclination compass), and (2) a magnetite-mediated process, providing magnetic map information (map sense
