Abstract in UndeterminedDespite being one of the most well studied compounds on earth, with tremendous implication for biology, chemistry and industrial applications, the complete molecular picture of water still eludes the modern scientific community. In this work we address the especially controversial question about water dynamics.We investigate water rotational and translational dynamics in bu

Buildings in developing countries are often designed without taking sufficient account of the climate. Factors such as the urban surroundings or site characteristics, orientation and architectural design of the building, choice of building materials, etc are not given enough importance. Consequently buildings often have a poor indoor climate, which affects comfort, health and efficiency. The probl

Abstract This paper offers a new description and explanation of morphological agreement, argument-verb agreement in particular. The hypothesis explored is that argument-verb agreement is directly related to selection of arguments (s-selection), i.e. s-selectional features are in fact ф-features ([PERSON, NUMBER(, GENDER)], and that morphological argument-verb agreement mirrors this relation. Call

If semantic consequence is analyzed with extensive games, logical reasoning can be accounted for by looking at how players solve entailment games. However, earlier approaches to game semantics cannot achieve this reduction, by want of explicitly dened preferences for players. Moreover, although entailment games can naturally translate the idea of argumentation about a common ground, a cognitive in

Popular Abstract in Swedish Den pågående trenden att alltmer digital information skapas och lagras av ett ständigt ökande antal människor över hela världen driver på den formidabla utveckling vi idag ser av elektroniska apparater som t.ex. läsplattor, bärbara datorer och smartphones. För att möjliggöra en fortsatt utveckling i samma takt, krävs tillgång till nya typer av halvledarkomponenter och kThis thesis focuses on the magnetotransport properties of highly Mn-doped crystalline GaAs nanowires. The GaAs nanowires were first grown by metal-organic vapor phase epitaxy from gold seed particles, and subsequently implanted with Mn ions under varying conditions, e.g., ion fluence and acceleration voltage. The implantation process was carefully analyzed and optimized within the research project

The natural radiative lifetimes of some excited Bi I levels belonging to the 6 p 2 7 s and the 6 p 2 6 d configurations have been determined by analyzing Hanle depolarization curves obtained in an atomic beam experiment on the 100% abundant isotope Bi 209 ( I =9/2). Taking the exciting light spectral distribution into account the following values for the lifetimes have been obtained: ##IMG## [http
