This thesis examines contemporary Danish public discourse on fertility and demography, where anxiety over declining fertility among women of Danish origin coexists with anxiety over immigrants and their descendants becoming a future demographic majority. The empirical material consists of documents from and adjacent to Danmarks Statistik (2019–2025) and news coverage from Politiken and Danmarks Ra
This study examines Turkish foreign policy toward Syria through the lens of historical materialism. Departing from mainstream analyses that treat economy and politics as separate spheres, it situates class dynamics at the core of foreign policy formation, arguing that Ankara's engagement is systematically driven by the imperative to convert conflict into economic opportunity for Turkish capita
Phase field crystal (PFC) modeling is employed to investigate the migration dynamics of FCC and BCC symmetric tilt grain boundaries (GBs) under an applied artificial driving pressure. The evolution of GB position, velocity, mobility, structure and energy is tracked to explore the interdependencies of these quantities. The use of PFC permits simulations with atom scale spatial resolution over exten

Following Turkey’s 2018 currency crisis, the government introduced four key housing re-regulations which reduced mortgage interest rates, investment-based citizenship incentives, rent increase limitations, and monetary easing to stimulate economic recovery. This study examines how state-led financialization of housing disproportionately favours middle- and high-income groups while limiting access
This study examines how pornography is constructed in Swedish opinion media, focusing on how power, responsibility, and vulnerability are discursively distributed among gendered subjects. The study is grounded in Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA) and draws on Michel Foucault’s theories of discourse and power, Judith Butler’s theory of vulnerability, and Kimberlé Crenshaw’s theory of intersectional
The first measurements of femtoscopic correlations with the particle pair combinations π±KS0 in pp collisions at s=13 TeV at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) are reported by the ALICE experiment. Using the femtoscopic approach, it is shown that it is possible to study the elusive K0⁎(700) particle that has been considered a tetraquark candidate for over forty years. Source and final-state interacti
Measurements of both the inclusive and differential production cross sections of a top-quark-top-antiquark pair in association with a Z boson (tt¯Z) are presented. Final states with two, three or four isolated leptons (electrons or muons) are targeted. The measurements use the data recorded by the ATLAS detector in pp collisions at s = 13 TeV at the Large Hadron Collider during the years 2015–2018
Each year, about 30% of all newly diagnosed cancer cases in women worldwide are breast cancers [1]. One of the most common techniques for breast cancer diagnosis is mammography. However, this technique provides limited functional information regarding breast tissue morphology. In cases of suspected malignancy invasive techniques such as biopsy are implemented.In this work an optical deep tissue im
A search for events with one top quark and missing transverse momentum in the final state is presented. The fully hadronic decay of the top quark is explored by selecting events with a reconstructed boosted top-quark topology produced in association with large missing transverse momentum. The analysis uses 139 fb−1 of proton-proton collision data at a centre-of-mass energy of s = 13 TeV recorded d
A search for the nonresonant production of Higgs boson pairs in the Formula Presented channel is performed using Formula Presented of proton-proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV recorded by the ATLAS detector at the CERN Large Hadron Collider. The analysis strategy is optimized to probe anomalous values of the Higgs boson self-coupling modifier Formula Presented and of the quarti
We report the discovery and characterization of a small planet, TOI-1408 c, on a 2.2 day orbit located interior to a previously known hot Jupiter, TOI-1408 b (P = 4.42 days, M = 1.86 ± 0.02 M Jup, R = 2.4 ± 0.5 R Jup) that exhibits grazing transits. The two planets are near 2:1 period commensurability, resulting in significant transit timing variations (TTVs) for both planets and transit duration
A search for leptoquark pair production decaying into te-t¯e+ or tμ-t¯μ+ in final states with multiple leptons is presented. The search is based on a dataset of pp collisions at s=13TeV recorded with the ATLAS detector during Run 2 of the Large Hadron Collider, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 139 fb-1. Four signal regions, with the requirement of at least three light leptons (electron
A comprehensive study of the local and nonlocal amplitudes contributing to the decay B0 → K*0(→ K+π−)μ+μ− is performed by analysing the phase-space distribution of the decay products. The analysis is based on pp collision data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 8.4 fb−1 collected by the LHCb experiment. This measurement employs for the first time a model of both one-particle and two-part
