Popular Abstract in Swedish I denna avhandling har morfologin och kristallstrukturen av epitaxiellt växta nanotrådstrukturer undersökts med hjälp av svepelektronmikroskopi (SEM), transmissionselektronmikroskopi (TEM) och multi-slice (MS) simuleringar. Bland annat har vi funnit att de lamellära tvillingar som ofta observeras i III-V nanotrådar växta i B riktningarna tenderar att begränsas av enbartIn this work, the morphology and crystal structure of epitaxial semiconductor nanowire structures grown by metal-organic vapour phase epitaxy (MOVPE) are studied by electron microscopy methods. In particular, the three-dimensional structure of nanowires and nanotrees has been characterised by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM) and multi-sli

Field experiments with ISA (Intelligent Speed Adaptation) has been carried out in the city of Debrecen, Hungary. Twenty vehicles were equipped with two kinds of ISA systems: 1) support via an active accelerator pedal and 2) warning via beep signals and flashing red light when exceeding the speed limit. Speed was continually logged in all vehicles and the test drivers were interviewed. The results

What kind of indispensable cognitive ability is needed for intelligence, sociability, communication, and technology to emerge on a habitable planet? My answer is simple: intersubjectivity. I stress the significance of intersubjectivity, of shared cognition, for extraterrestrial intelligence and interstellar communication, and argue that it is in fact crucial and indispensable for any successful in

The new library Modelica.StateGraph is a freeModelica package providing components to modeldiscrete event and reactive systems in a convenientway. It has a similar modeling power as Statecharts,but avoids some deficiencies of Statecharts by usingelements of JGrafchart and by using Modelica as an“action” language. An overview of the StateGraphlibrary is given, the available components and anapplica

Popular Abstract in Swedish Under 9 år (1989-1997) studerades individuellt märkta mindre hackspettar i ett undersökningsområde i södra Smålands ädellövskogar. De flesta studierna gjordes i 17 potentiella revir, vilka undersöktes årligen. Följningar av hackspettar försedda med radiosändare visade att fåglarna rörde sig inom ett, i medeltal, 742 ha stort hemområde under vintern. Under häckningstideOver 9 years, 116 breeding attempts made by individually marked lesser spotted woodpeckers (Dendrocopos minor) were followed in a study area in southern Sweden. The home-range area decreased from on average 742 ha in winter to a defended territory of 103 ha prior to breeding and 43 ha during nesting. The annual timing of the breeding varied between years but was each year synchronized with the bu

On Lauritz Weibull (1873–1960), archivist and professor of history at Lund University (1919–1938). It is suggested that the portrayal of Catholicism in his historical essays was characterized by both lucidity and familiarity, and not the obscurity and alienation that was usually the situation in early twentieth century Scandinavia.

Feeding norms are pervasive, and ideals of healthy food increase in relation to advice from commercial and government actors. Here we address how perceptions of “proper” food in Swedish family households are formed in relation to children’s preferences. We argue that what is served in today’s Swedish families should be understood in the context of discourse related to food and feeding and as a con
