Scandinavia has historically been known for high levels of social justices. Universal and tax-funded social security and health systems, state pension and free basic as well as higher education became fundamental elements in creating more equal societies. Moreover, housing sectors based on use value rather than exchange value have historically been key to the development of Scandinavian welfare st
This paper presents a convex-optimization-based technique to obtain parameters for a PID feedback controller, used to control the infusion rate of the anesthetic drug propofol. The controller design is based on a set of identified patient models, relating propofol infusion to an EEG-based conciousness index. The main contribution lies in the method automatically taking inter-patient variability in
This paper attempts at developing an approach integrating industry dynamics with its labour force evolution by analysing inflows of labour into rapidly expanding knowledge intensive IT services sector in Sweden between 1991 and 2010. To analyse how requirements on incoming labour and the value put on different skills changed during this process, we look at entry conditions and post-entry performan
Vineyard landscapes provide cultural ecosystem services (CES), which have been little studied in previous ecosystem services research. To fill this gap, we assess perspectives of wine producers and residents regarding CES provided by vineyards in two wine regions: Southeast England, an emerging wine area, and the counties of Sonoma and Napa, California (hereafter: Sonoma and Napa), a more traditio
Robustly testing hypotheses of geographic synchroneity of abrupt and extreme change during the late Pleistocene (60,000 to 11,650 years ago) requires a level of chronological precision often lacking in ice, marine and terrestrial sequences. Here we report a bidecadally-resolved New Zealand kauri (Agathis australis) tree-ring sequence spanning two millennia that preserves a record of atmospheric ra
High-resolution core-level photoemission with a resolution better than the intrinsic width of the C 1s level has been used to study pure and coadsorbed ethylidyne overlayers on Rh(111). Components due to excitation of the C-H stretch vibration are clearly resolved in the C 1s spectra. In addition, a component due to the C-C vibration of the ethylidyne molecules is identified. The asymmetry paramet
Despite its continued observational successes, there is a persistent (and growing) interest in extending cosmology beyond the standard model, ΛCDM. This is motivated by a range of apparently serious theoretical issues, involving such questions as the cosmological constant problem, the particle nature of dark matter, the validity of general relativity on large scales, the existence of anomalies in
We have investigated CO adsorption at 300 K on ∼ 1.5 atomic layer thick Pd films on a Mo(110) surface by high-resolution core level photoemission. We describe how high-resolution core level spectroscopy may be utilized to study the influence of laterally mobile states on the sticking probability of molecules on such a laterally heterogeneous surface. The present Pd films are laterally heterogeneou
A grazing-incidence grating spectrometer has been used for the investigation of the undulator radiation from beamline 411 at MAX-lab. The direct detection of undulator light is expected to obtain the information of the quality of the undulator. Regular undulator radiation and some higher harmonics were observed. The effects of electronic beam coupling and Landau cavities have been studied. The exp
The design of a versatile high-precision eight-axis ultrahigh-vacuum-compatible polarimeter is presented. This multipurpose instrument can be used as a self-calibrating polarization detector for linearly and circularly polarized UV and soft-x-ray light. It can also be used for the characterization of reflection or transmission properties (reflectometer) or polarizing and phase-retarding properties
