This study examines how corporate governance relates to firms’ sustainability as measured by ESG performance. I operationalize sustainability using the Bloomberg ESG Performance Score and its E/S/G pillars; all effects are therefore interpreted as changes in ESG-measured sustainability. I begin with firm-fixed-effects and year-fixed-effects panel regressions that link within-firm changes in CEO eq

Enligt kursplanen är syftet med detta projekt att närma sig och ta sig an arkitektoniska gestaltningsfrågor mot bakgrund av ett föränderligt och komplext samhälle. Grundinställningen är att arkitektur gör skillnad, och att den gör det därför att den är del av ett sammanhang som är större än sig självt. För att förstå hur dessa sammanhang verkar, tillämpar kursen ett processperspektiv på arkitektur

Bunch compressors in linear accelerators (linac) are magnetic devices used to shorten electron bunch length, and therefore, increase the peak current. MAX IV, located in Lund, Sweden, is a synchrotron light source facility that includes a linac containing two double-achromat bunch compressors, BC1 and BC2. Each bunch compressor consists of two identical arcs bent in opposite directions. As electro

I Fågelmara, ett kustnära område i Karlskrona kommun, innehåller grundvattnet i flera brunnar höga halter av klorid, vilket kan vara ett tecken på att saltvatten från Östersjön tränger in. Detta fenomen, kallat saltvatteninträngning, riskerar att förvärras i framtiden på grund av klimatförändringar, torrare år och sjunkande grundvattennivåer. Denna studie har undersökt kloridhalterna i åtta kommunSaltwater intrusion into coastal groundwater is an increasing concern due to climate change, as drought and declining groundwater levels can allow seawater to infiltrate groundwater aquifers.

Partikelfysik är det fält inom fysiken som syftar till att förstå universums mest fundamentala byggstenar och de krafter som styr deras beteende. Standardmodellen är den teori som med stor framgång beskriver alla kända elementarpartiklar och deras växelverkningar, med undantag för gravitationen. Upptäckten av Higgspartikeln vid LHC 2012 markerade en viktig milstolpe för den moderna fysiken. Den beIn this thesis, a comprehensive on-shell renormalization scheme for the potential of the general CP-violating Two-Higgs-Doublet Model (2HDM) at one-loop level is presented. We derive and implement two schemes that are self-consistent and do not rely on a set of consistency equations to be valid. We focus on showcasing the effects of different renormalization schemes and their implications on physi
