This dissertation focuses on aspects of the social context of child and adult eyewitness memory reports, along with their relation to report accuracy and metamemory performance. More specifically, it investigates the effects on memory reports and metamemory judgments of i) receiving feedback from co-witnesses, ii) being probed for further eventmemory reports, and iii) retelling eventmemory content

This paper investigates the pricing bias in the Swedish OMX-Index Option market and how a stochastic volatility affects European call option prices. The market is purely European and without dividends for the period studied. A CIR square-root process for the volatility is estimated with non-linear least square minimization, and stochastic volatility option prices are calculated through Fourier-Inv

We demonstrate a wrap-gated field effect transistor based on a matrix of vertically standing InAs nanowires (Jensen, et. al., 2004). A lower limit of the mobility, derived from the transconductance, is on the order of 3000 cm2/Vs. The narrow ~100 nm channels show excellent current saturation and a threshold of Vg = -0.15 V. The sub-threshold characteristics show a close to ideal slope of 62mV/deca

All modern firms need access to capital markets at the lowest possible cost. Today's investors want to be able to increase or decrease their ownership rapidly, at low transaction costs and they demand return compensation for the trading costs they meet. This means that the price of the firm's security will reflect its share liquidity characteristics. Consequently liquidity-increasing financial inv

Together with response time the force of responses to stimuli can provide important clues about cognitive and affective processes. However, while there has been much discussion of factors involved in the accurate measurement of response time (RT), key issues and assumptions in assessment of response force (RF) have been far less studied. Here, hierarchical Bayesian analysis is used to examine the

A survey of hunting, and attitudes towards hunting in Sweden from 17th to 20thh century

Gåtfullhet och utgångar hos Gadö Trots sin internationella orientering har den svenske konstnären Bertil Gadö (född 1916) levt hela sitt liv i födelsestaden Malmö i Sveriges sydligaste del. Efter att under senare hälften av 1940-talet ha nått fram till en fri naturabstraktion ger han sig omkring 1950 bildfantasin i våld. En halvt automatisk linjeskrift på dukens eller papperets yta erbjuder blicke

The interfacial behaviour of polymers in relation to surface modification and polymer degradation was studied. In the first part the interfacial behaviour of amphiphilic poly(ethylene oxide)–poly(D,L-lactide) (EmLn) diblock copolymers at hydrophilic and hydrophobic substrates from aquous solution was studied. All copolymers showed a much higher saturation adsorption compared to that of the poly(et

A computational fluid dynamics (CFD) model is developed for rechargeable non-aqueous electrolyte lithium-air batteries with a partial opening for oxygen supply to the cathode. Multi-phase transport phenomena occurred in the battery are considered, including dissolved lithium ions and oxygen gas in the liquid electrolyte, solid-phase electron transfer in the porous functional materials and liquid-p

Popular Abstract in English For several decades the electronic industry has developed towards smaller and smaller electronic components. The idea behind this development is quite simple: Small components have faster response times, which enables faster devices. Also, smaller components make it possible to decrease the size of the devices. A common example is today's mobile phones, that actually arThis dissertation deals with the effects of coherence and correlations on transport through nanostructures. Simulations are mainly performed using the second order von Neumann approach, a method capable of dealing with these effects in the presence of higher order tunneling. We see that such effects can result in various kinds of current suppression as well as efficient thermoelectric devices. Fu
