Popular Abstract in Swedish Utveckling av AMS-tekniken och tillämpningar på 3H och 59Ni mätningar Traditionellt mäter man radioaktivitet genom att registrera den utsända strålningen från sönderfallande kärnor. Denna sönderfallsmätning fungerar oftast bra så länge halveringstiden (den tid det tar för hälften av kärnorna att sönderfalla) är kort nog samt då man har tillräckligt mycket material. MetAccelerator mass spectrometry (AMS) is a highly sensitive technique for counting atoms. Its main advantage in comparison with radiometric methods is the smaller amount of sample required (by a factor of a thousand). The method has a high efficiency and requires only some ten mg of sample material. The radioisotope 59Ni is of great importance in nuclear waste management in the nuclear industry. Thi

In this article I study the thought of French mathematician and philosopher Charles de Bovelles (1479-1553) on wisdom and man's place in creation.

Jordan has seen a large increase in population during the past five decades as a result of high population growth rate and forced migrations. Economical and cultural development has improved the standard of living and changed consumer habits in the community, resulting in an increase in the volume of Municipal solid waste (MSW) with time. World Bank visibility study (2004) showed that the rate of

In this article, I present evidence that Old Mongolian had preaspirated stops and affricates, like modern Halh Mongolian. The evidence consists of a number of historical phonological processes where two consonants on either side of a vowel interact with each other, and which are best explained by the assumption that the preceding consonant is postaspirated and the following one is preaspirated.

Chemical risks of consumer goods are a rather new concern in society. These risks are usually based on sythetic chemicals and man-made, often imperceptible and potentially devastating. These risks are reliant on knowledge claims and experiences as basis for risk judgments since, for example, chemical properties, threshold values and exposure are part of defining the risk. But risks are also define

1. Real Estate Law consists of several subjects: (a) different interests in land, conveyancing, mortgaging, registration, tenancy, easements and other encumbrances and (b) eminent domain, survey law and planning. A more broad definition would perhaps also include subjects such as environmental law and tax law. Most surveyors are educated in domestic law in these areas. This papers proposes a cours

A new low-order and causal twisted-pair cable model for the copper access network is derived. From the serial resistance of the widely used, but non-causal, BT0 model, the serial inductance is computed via the Hilbert transform. By doing so, a causal cable model is obtained containing fewer parameters compared to the BT0 model. The deviation between the two models is evaluated for the standardized

Creativity has become a key issue for managers and scholars alike. Creativity, however, is a complex and multi-levelled phenomenon. The significance of creativity and its complexity beg the question of how managers organise for creativity and how they address tensions linked to their organising attempts. Based on an interpretive methodology the book investigates these questions and explores differ
