When the Dust Settles : Psychological Resilience among Swedish Veterans after Deployment in Afghanistan
Sweden’s military involvement in Afghanistan has entailed the deployed soldiers’ exposure to high levels of stress and combat. As shown by a large number of studies, such experiences are associated with mental health problems. Resilience is an internationally recognized concept in striving to enhance military personnel’s well-being and in alleviating combat-related stress reactions, yet thus far,
What does Daesh want you to know?
Acknowledged from the existing literature regarding Daesh’s propaganda, the focus has mostly been on their propaganda on social media, such as Facebook and Twitter. However, I argue that a gap regarding Daesh’s propaganda is the lack of studies on Daesh’s online-magazine Dabiq and this thesis aim to fill this gap. I argue that Daesh’s way of arguing and framing their arguments are the key to under
Patentboxen - ett tillåtet skatteincitament för FoU?
Denna uppsats handlar om patentboxen om hur den utformats mot bakgrund av den kritik den fått, vilket resulterat i en ny modifierad metod, den s.k. Nexus approach. Sverige har inte tidigare anammat detta system och fått kritik för detta eftersom vissa anser att Sveriges konkurrenskraft gentemot Europa kan komma att minska. Man menar vidare att Sverige borde tillämpa denna metod nu när reglerna harThis essay concerns the patentbox, how it was formed, and how the new design thanks to the criticism it had created a new modified method, the s.c. Nexus approach. Sweden has not previously embraced this system and has been criticized for this as som believe that Swede´s competitiveness against Europe may decline. Due to the fact that the rules have become stricter, it has been suggested that Sw

Electric Field Domains in Quantum Cascade Lasers
När den första fungerande lasern demonstrerades beskrevs den som "en lösning som letar efter ett problem". Lasrar har sedan dess blivit omåttligt populär inom många områden. Bland annat används lasrar i hemmet i CD-läsare och skrivare, för laserskärning inom industrin, för att mäta luftföroreningar, och för att noggrant mäta avstånd. I detta projekt har en mycket liten typ av laser, kallQuantum cascade lasers (QCLs) are periodic semiconductor heterostructures, capable of producing laser gain. They have become an important source of coherent radiation in the mid infrared, and THz frequency regions. QCLs are non-linear electric devices, and often have bias regions of negative differential resistivity (NDR). These regions are inherently unstable, and electric field domains (EFDs) fo
Climate in mind - climate-adapted neighborhood design : a case study from Nyhamnen in Malmö, Sweden
Cities affected by the impacts of climate change have to find new ways to adapt to the variability in weather patterns, such as heavy rainfalls and storms. The coastal city Malmö, a former industrial city, aims to be carbon neutral by 2020 and provided by 100 percent renewable energies in 2030.

The Hidden Presupposition of Christian Faith. A Study on Divine Revelation as Understood in View of its Manifestation within the Flux of History.
My intention in this thesis is to analyze the Second Vatican Council’s understanding of divine revelation christologically. Within the frame of this analysis, I further wish to examine the hypothesis that the post-conciliar concept of revelation holds a constructive potential applicable within Swedish theological discourse. As a result of this, the following main question, enabling a christologica
Identication and Tracking of Charged Leptons in the ESSνSB Near Detector Using the Time Dependence of the Cherenkov Signal
Populärvetenskaplig sammanfattning Teorier angående universums upprinnelse har upptagit mänskligheten i hela vår historia. Till exempel skapades världen i mötet mellan kylan från Nifelheim och värmen från Muspelheim I den nordiske mytologin, medans världen I de Abrahamiska religioner skapades av Gud under en vecka. Inom Fysiken försöker tusentals forskare att besvara ackurat den samma frågan angåeAbstract The ESSSB (European Spallation Source Neutrino Super beam) is a proposed long baseline neutrino oscillation experiment, intended to use the same proton accelerator as the European Spallation Source. With the pro- posed modications to the accelerator both ESSSB and the ESS would achieve a beam power of 5 MW. This power, in conjunction with the dis- covery of a large value of the mixing ang
Emma and Clueless in the ESL Classroom: A comparative study from a Marxist perspective
This essay provides an understanding of why a teacher of English in Sweden can use the novel Emma (1994) and the film Clueless (1995), in comparison, to describe and use Marxist literary theory in the classroom. As there are various ways of teaching the English language to adolescents, using literature and film provides a chance for teachers to teach new terminology connected to critical theory, a
