Artificial neural networks is a powerful tool for classifying and identifying patterns in large amounts of data. One of the possible tasks of these networks is classification of data into categories. LDMX is a fixed target experiment that is designed to search for light dark matter particles using missing energy and momentum of electrons passing through and scattering of a target. In the current d

This thesis investigates the link between the water and sanitation environment mothers are exposed to during pregnancy and adverse pregnancy outcomes in Mali, specifically early neonatal mortality and low birth weight. The motivation and contribution for this analysis is that little research has been done on this topic, specifically in the Sub-Saharan African region and with the combination of tho

The Covid-19 crisis presents an opportunity to evaluate the effectiveness of fiscal policy by investigating how fiscal stimuli aided recovery from the pandemic in Sweden. As Covid-19 have led to increased concerns of unsustainable debt levels, questions of how government spending has affected the economic rebound and fiscal sustainability arises.

Denna undersökning avser att undersöka och belysa livsmedelssäkerheten inom studentnationerna vid Lunds universitet i Lunds kommun och Uppsala universitet i Uppsala kommun. Huvudfrågeställningen som behandlas är "Är maten som serveras vid dessa studentnationer säker att konsumera?". En metodik som omfattar granskning av kontrollrapporter, enkätundersökningar och litteraturundersökningarThis thesis aims to explore and shed light on food safety within the student nations at Lund University located within Lund municipality and Uppsala University within Uppsala municipality. The main question being addressed is, "Is the food served at these student nations safe to consume?". A method surrounding review of control reports, survey research, and a literature review has been

I Sverige råder en del kunskapsluckor inom forskning som studerar rasism: utbredningen av rasism/etnisk diskriminering och dess konsekvenser. Samtidigt vittnar internationell forskning om samband mellan utsatthet för rasism och psykisk ohälsa. Denna studie hade delvis ett kartläggande syfte för att i svensk kontext undersöka frekvens av etnisk diskriminering, psykisk ohälsa (negativa mentala hälsIn Sweden, some knowledge gaps in the research of racism have been identified: the prevalence of racism/ethnic discrimination and its consequences. Simultaneously, international research shows a correlation between exposure to racism and mental illness. The aim of this study was partly to investigate the frequency of ethnic discrimination, mental illness (negative mental health symptoms) and ethni

With an increase in temperature (T) and a change in precipitation (P) patterns due to climate change, global conditions for tree growth are changing and shifting. While some areas experience an increase in P, favoring tree growth, many regions are also predicted to show a decrease in P, leading to trends of desertification. This study examines the projected climate change in Nigeria, located in Su

This bachelor thesis studies a specific recurring trend from the 1990’s, which in this case is exemplified as dungarees, or as more commonly used, overalls. To understand the essence of this trend and why it’s recurring, a semiotic analysis is applied to the study and to understand the qualitative values it houses, such as social practices and structures, as well as signs, codes and symbolism, wil

This Master thesis is investigating how communities of practice can enhance knowledge sharing in a context of improving a harmonized Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system used in supply chain. A student from the faculty of production and materials engineering at Lund university (LTH) collaborated with the Global Trinity organization from Alfa Laval (Lund, Sweden) to answer the research que

In 1988 Hills proposed that stars can gain velocities above 500 km s−1 if they are in a stellar binary which gets disrupted by a super massive black hole (SMBH). One of the stars would get trapped in an elliptical orbit around the SMBH while the other gets ejected and obtains a relatively high velocity. Normally stars within galaxies have low peculiar velocities but stars ejected with velocities o

The following study examines the nature of subjective well-being in a working context. The purpose of this research is to find out which dimensions are most central to well-being in the workplace. Thus, a questionnaire was used to gather information about the different dimensions (i.e., work engagement, job satisfaction, life satisfaction, personality, and well-being at the workplace).

I samband med två konserttillfällen undersöks om högre musikutbildningar gör skillnad för individens lyssnande och ifall det påverkar hur vi lyssnar på och värderar olika typer av musik och genrer. Musikutbildningens påverkan på musiklyssnande undersöks. Målgrupperna på de två konserterna var medvetet olika. De två konserterna spelades dels för en publik som ej studerat musik och för en publik somIn connection with two concert occasions, I investigated whether higher music education makes a difference to the individual's listening and whether it affects how we listen to and value different types of music and genres. The effect a higher music education has on our ability to listen to music is the research topic. The target groups at the two concerts were deliberately different. They had
