Debris disc stirring by secular perturbations from giant planets

Detectable debris discs are thought to require dynamical excitation (`stirring'), so that planetesimal collisions release large quantities of dust. We investigate the effects of the secular perturbations of a planet, which may lie at a significant distance from the planetesimal disc, to see if these perturbations can stir the disc, and if so over what time-scale. The secular perturbations cause or

On the semantics and syntax of Scandinavian pronouns and object shift

In this article I argue that weak pronouns in the Scandinvian languages should be analysed as functional heads expressing pure phi-features, and that these heads occur either without complements or copying phi-features expressed in the rest of the extended projection. The description is modelled on a construction in Old and Modern Icelandic, where a pronoun may identify the phi-features of a delet

Political Structure and Dam Conflicts: Comparing Cases in Southeast Asia

This paper argues that different political structures use different conflict management mechanisms to manage opposition to large hydro projects. Conflicts over the Pak Mun Dam, Thailand (a liberal democracy), and the Bakun Dam, Malaysia (a semi-authoritarian state), are the cases selected for comparison. The export oriented, fast industrialization process brought rapid development in these two cou

The discursive construction, reproduction and continuance of national cultures: A critical study of the cross-cultural management discourse

Considering that businesses, whether they operate on a global or a domestic market, are affected by globalization, cross-cultural management is without doubt an urgent topic in current management and education. However, despite this urgency and the commendable intention behind the endeavour to enhance people’s cultural knowledge, current models on national cultures are problematic since they rely

Interplay of Touschek Scattering, Intrabeam Scattering, and RF Cavities in Ultralow-emittance Storage Rings

When it goes into operation in 2016, the MAX IV 3 GeV storage ring will be the first ultralow-emittance storage ring based on a multibend achromat lattice. Such ultralow-emittance rings make use of a large number of weak bending magnets which leads to low radiation losses in the dipoles compared to power radiated from insertion devices. Therefore, the emittance in such rings depends strongly on th

Roman blir film

This article deals with David Lean's cinematic adaptation of Dickens's Great Expectations.

Skol-TV - traditioner, visioner och former : en studie av skol-TV:s förutsättningar, framväxt och utveckling under 1960-talet

This dissertation is about the introduction of school television in Sweden during the 1960?s. It focuses partly on formal and institutional attitudes and values, as in the educational system, and it is partly an investigation of the actual programmes made. The introduction and forming of school television is seen as a consequence due to many factors. It was the time of a growing welfare society wh
