Att se spridning av idéer som översättning istället för som "diffusion", är ett perspektiv som har blivit allt vanligare. Översättning associaeras ofta till beskrivningar och analyser av förändringar och organisatoriska reformer, och har då utgjort ett alternativ till nyinstitutionella teorins antagande om homogenisering och stabilitet i den institutionella ordningen. Det finns många studier som a

Processing of two-dimensional images on a nanosecond time scale is demonstrated using the stimulated photon echoes in a rare-earth-doped crystal (0.1 at. \% Pr3$+$:LaF3). Two spatially encoded laser pulses (pictures) resonant with the 3P0-3H4 transition of Pr3$+$ were stored by focusing the image pulses sequentially into the Pr3$+$:LaF3 crystal. The stored information is retrieved and processed by

Many concepts in legal texts are "intermediaries", in the sense that they serve as links between statements of legal grounds, on one hand, and of legal consequences, on the other. In our paper, an algebraic representation of normative systems is used for distinguishing between different kinds of intermediaries and making the idea of a joining between grounds and consequences more precise. In Secti

Popular Abstract in Swedish Hormonerna vasopressin och oxytocin frisätts från hypofysens baklob. Hypofysen är en körtel, som är belägen på undersidan av hjärnan och utsöndrar en rad olika hormoner vilka i sin tur påverkar och reglerar aktiviteten i en mängd andra organ. Vasopressin medverkar till regleringen av vatten- och saltbalansen i kroppen, men verkar också sammandragande på icke-viljestyrdVasopressin and oxytocin seem to have pivotal roles in the pathophysiology of primary dysmenorrhoea and preterm labour. Prostaglandins are also involved in the regulation of uterine activity with different receptors mediating both stimulation and relaxation. We explored different aspects of synthesis, release and receptor pharmacology of vasopressin and oxytocin. We also tested a vasopressin and o

We present the effect of annealing temperature and annealing time on InAs/InP site-controlled quantum dot growth. Electron beam pre-patterning forms carbon nano-deposits at the InP surface, which then can be used as growth masks to form nano-holes at the surface. By only annealing of the patterned InP surface under an arsine ambient, As/P exchange reactions produce material sufficient for selectiv

An array of sustainable ways either to reduce the amount of waste rubber generated or for the re-utilisation of waste rubber products as different means of resources at the end of their service lives are provided and briefly evaluated from economic, social and environmental perspectives. Potential measures which the Swedish rubber industry and its major stakeholders can implement (within the conte

I artikeln presenterar och diskuterar jag religiösa ställningstaganden inom kristna konfessioner, judendom och islam, till frågor som aktualiseras av några användningar av bioteknologi. Till sådana hör assisterad befruktning, hantering av embryon och stamceller, prenatal genetisk diagnostik och selektiv abort, organtransplantation och genterapi. Inom varje religiös tradition finner man ett spektru

This article analyses the events in Lund in 1852 and 1853 when the radical newspaper Fäderneslandet was started. The editor Nils Rudolf Munck af Rosenschöld represented an in many ways typical nineteenth century radicalism where the roots of society's evils primarily were political. His views on Swedish history, justice and the law, and sexual morals are in particular focus. It is argued that Nils

The dominating part of electron injection from the transition metal complex Ru(dcbpy)2(NCS)2 into a titanium dioxide nanocrystalline film proceeds extremely rapidly from the initially populated, vibronically nonthermalized, singlet excited state of the molecule. The results are especially relevant to the understanding and design of molecular-based photovoltaic devices and artificial photosynthetic
