This thesis investigates the K±/(π+ + π−) yield ratio near Ξ − ¯Ξ pairs in pp collisions at mid-rapidity (|η| < 1) to distinguish between two competing models of strangeness enhancement: the rope hadronization model, implemented in PYTHIA, and the canonical statistical hadronization model, implemented in Thermal-FIST. The results from both models show strong agreement with experimental data from t

Chiral C3-symmetric molecules are an important class of compounds with applications in asymmetric catalysis and drug discovery. Few synthetic methods exist to synthesize this class of molecules in a step-economic and concise manner. This work explores a range of chemical transformations to functionalize the D3-symmetric (a,e,i)tribenzo(5,6,11,12,17,18) hexadehydro[12]annulene into C3-symmetric pla

The chaperone protein DNAJB6b exhibits intrinsic activity in inhibiting amyloid fibril formation, although the underlying mechanism remains unclear. A key region, comprising residues 132-183 and rich in serine and threonine residues, commonly referred to as the “S/T region”, has been shown to play a critical role in this function. While deletion of the S/T region does not disrupt the folding of DN

In 2007, the Bárány Society embarked on a project to establish definitions of vestibular syndromes and disorders based on best available evidence, referred to as the International Classification of Vestibular Disorders (ICVD). Since then, numerous publications providing consensus-driven diagnostic criteria for vestibular symptoms, syndromes, and disorders have been published. Here, we reflect on t

Studien “Damidrott, idrottskvinnor och femininitet - en kvantitativ studie av könsrepresentation i mediebevakningen av OS 2024” är författad av Nellie Engdahl och Lova Ekstrand i medie- och kommunikationsvetenskap vid institutionen för kommunikation vid Lunds universitet. Uppsatsen syftar till att undersöka hur stor del av den svenska mediebevakningen av OS 2024 som ägnades åt kvinnliga respektive

This bachelor's thesis examines how narratives about queer and/or norm-critical performance strategies can counteract the reproduction of stage stereotypes and preconceived normative role interpretations on the independent theatre stages in Sweden. Based on three dyadic interviews with three different independent theatre groups in Sweden, I have analyzed narratives about queer and norm-critica

Denna B-uppsats i Medie- och kommunikationsvetenskap, vid institutionen för kommunikation och medier, Lunds universitet, är författad av Ida Turesson och Alice Gilljam. Syftet med uppsatsen är att undersöka hur influencermödrar skildrar känslor av stress, identitetsförlust och sociala förväntningar i poddformat. Uppsatsen analyserar hur normer och förväntningar uttrycks i samtalen av influencermöd

Detta arbete med titeln “Det mesta jag läser blir en del av mig” – En kvalitativ studie om meningsskapande på digitala läsplattformar undersöker hur användare av de digitala läsplattformarna Goodreads och StoryGraph tillämpar plattformarna i relation till kulturellt och identitetsmässigt meningsskapande. Utifrån kvalitativa intervjuer med tre användare analyserades de medverkandes användning utifr

Detta examensarbete undersöker och jämför lönsamheten för två olika metoder för underhållsarbeten på järnväg i form av spårbyten utifrån ekonomiska och tidsmässiga aspekter. Dessa metoder är den traditionella traktormetoden och det avancerade spårbyteståget. Syftet med arbetet är att undersöka användningen av spårbyteståg och traditionella metoder vid underhållsarbeten på bana i Sverige samt när dThis thesis examines and compares the profitability of two different methods for railway maintenance work in the form of track renewal based on economic and time aspects. These methods are the tractor method and the advanced track renewal trains. The purpose of the thesis is to investigate the use of track renewal trains and tractor methods for track maintenance work in Sweden and when the former

Linear quadratic (LQ) control optimizes a quadratic cost function while following a linear model. It is commercially available in the process industry but often not labeled as such and infrequently used. Froth flotation is a process in the minerals industry that extracts precious metals from a slurry of finely ground rock in consecutive tanks called cells. Flotation cells are often arranged in two

Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS) are integral to critical infrastructure, but their interconnected nature exposes them to sophisticated cyber threats. Traditional security mechanisms primarily focus on detecting direct manipulations of control signals or sensor data, leaving them vulnerable to more subtle attack vectors. This paper introduces a novel optimisation framework for modelling and executing Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS) are integral to critical infrastructure, but their interconnected nature exposes them to sophisticated cyber threats.

INTRODUCTION: Exercise training is recommended as a complementary treatment in postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (POTS) according to international guidelines. However, less is known regarding how exercise training could successfully be implemented in clinical practice in patients with POTS. Thus, in the current study, we aim to assess the effect of a 16-week tailored exercise training prog

Background Anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA)-associated vasculitis (AAV) is a group of rare, autoimmune diseases causing inflammation in the vessel wall. Many organs can be affected, and kidney involvement is a common and serious manifestation. Complement activation is important in disease development and has also been detected in patients in remission. The reason for increased complemen

BACKGROUND: The transition to undertaking rehabilitation in the home or local neighbourhood calls for an extensive understanding of which aspects of the built environment are important for people with stroke.OBJECTIVE: This qualitative study aims to explore how home and local neighbourhood environments support or hinder rehabilitation for people who have had a stroke from the perspectives of vario

OBJECTIVE: Despite recent advances, the pathophysiological mechanisms underlying anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA)-associated vasculitides (AAV) remain incompletely understood, and comparative proteomic analyses of AAV subtypes are lacking. This study aimed to identify key molecular signaling pathways activated in AAV and to elucidate molecular distinctions between AAV with proteinase 3
