For Mary Wollstonecraft, the moral purpose of government is to act on the principle of equality and protect the weak against the fact of inequality. The political day-to-day is characterized by classes and groups with competing interests, some more powerful than others. Wollstonecraft was a republican thinker and so it is reasonable to expect in her writings a notion of political society as repres
Pulsar binaries are important targets for ground-based and future space-borne gravitational-wave (GW) detectors. In order for improving detector design and assessing detector performances, it is a prerequisite to understand the astrophysics of GW sources such as the population size or merger rates. Here, we summarize recent results for Galactic merger rates of two known types of pulsar binaries: (

The effects of organic pollutants on the soil microbial community were studied in this work. The main aim was to evaluate the use of pollution-induced community tolerance (PICT) in studying the effects of pollution. The leucine incorporation technique (indicating bacterial growth) was used to monitor changes in tolerance. The impact of toxic substances on bacterial and fungal growth (acetate-in-er
Popular Abstract in Swedish Forskning om stamceller har fått mycket uppmärksamhet de senaste åren. Mycket av intresset avspeglar möjligheten att använda denna typ av celler som en terapi för att bota olika sjukdomar. En stam cell från hjärnan är en cell som har förmåga att dela sig symmetriskt, varvid två kopior bildas eller asymmetriskt, vilket ger upphov till en ny stam cell samt en progenitorceIn the present thesis, we have examined the in vivo properties of in vitro expanded human and rat neural stem-and progenitor cells after transplantation into the neonatal and adult rat brain. The survival and differentiation of the grafted cells were assessed using species-specific antisera, and pre-labelling with the reporter gene green fluorescent protein (GFP). Long-term growth factor-expanded
An article about the films Aleksandr Nevskij and Ivan the Terrible, Eisenstein as a director and Stalin´s involvment in the process.
This thesis is divided in two parts which are strongly connected. Part one deal with disruptions occurring in connection with machine down-time, quality losses and increased cycle time. The analysis is based on 10 studies, in which down-time losses in Swedish industry have been registered. In part two, the Japanese lean production concept is analysed with the aid of literature studies and studies
In this paper, we present a status report on how implementation of nanoimprint lithography has advanced our research. Contact guidance nerve growth experiments have so far primarily been done on micrometer-structured surfaces. We have made a stamp with 17 areas of different, submicron, line width and spacing covering a total 2.6 mm
When an Integrated Development Environment (IDE) is developed, the support for multiple views of the same document is often essential. An example of this is Modelica models, as it should be possible to view and edit the same model in both its textual and graphical representation. One implementation of Modelica is the open-source platform JModelica.org. It contains the JModelica.org IDE, that prov
In iterative receiver structures, soft information becomes available after the decoding stage in the first iteration. This information is used to enhance the quality of the channel estimates for the next iteration. Channel estimation plays a crucial role in multi-user detection because the effective identification sequence for each user strongly depends on the channel characteristics. To combine d
This paper deals with knowledge flows and collaboration between firms in the regional innovation system of southern Sweden. It focuses on industries which draw on different types of knowledge bases. The aim is to analyse how the functional and spatial organisation of knowledge interdependencies among firms and other actors vary between different types of industries which are part of the same regio
