Nuclear Structure and Exotic Decays; Doubly-Magic 56Ni and Semi-Magic 58Ni

The nuclear structure of two nuclei, 56Ni and 58Ni, has been studied using fusion-evaporation reaction experiments. The experiments were performed at the Lawrence Berkeley and Argonne National Laboratories in the U.S.A. The number of known spherical and deformed states in 56Ni has been significantly extended. One case of prompt proton emission from a well-deformed excited state into the ground st

Supply Chain Management in the Construction Industry

In this licentiate thesis the implications of a deliberate use of logistics knowledge have been investigated by describing and analyzing the use of a supply chain management approach in the construction industry.
