En varm kopp kaffe kommer svalna om du låter den stå tillräckligt länge. Lägger du en isbit på marken och lämnar den där kommer den att smälta. Om du känner där isbiten låg efter att du torkat upp smältvattnet kommer det kännas kallt, förutsatt att det inte gått allt för lång tid. Isbiten har alltså tagit upp värme från golvet. Både kaffet som svalnar och isbiten som smälter är exempel på hur tempPreviously recorded data of electron tunneling in and out of a quantum dot (QD) is used to extract knowledge of the state of the system. Using the detailed balance of the system, it is shown that information about the electron temperature in the lead Te, as well as knowledge about the degeneracies of the states in a quantum dot can be obtained from measurements of the tunneling rates in and out of

Sialinsyra är en kolhydrat som finns i och på nästan alla däggdjursceller och fyller många funktioner. En viktig funktion är att agera som kommunikatör mellan celler. Många virus och bakterier använder sig av sialinsyra för att hitta rätt cell att infektera medan andra använder sialinsyra som en mantel för att gömma sig för immunförsvaret. Detta kan användas som ett verktyg för att utveckla mediciSialic acids are nine-carbon carbohydrates that are present and essential in nearly all mammalian cells. Sialic acids have many functions such as molecular recognition, cell adhesion, and markers for pathogens. Some pathogens can take advantage of mammalian sialic acids and disguise themselves as host cells in a phenomenon that is called pathogenic mimicry. By doing this, the bacteria and virus in

Bacteria-eating viruses and their prey: an eternal war The antibiotic resistance problem: what if bacterial viruses were the solution? Nowadays, we hear more and more dreadful stories about nasty bacteria becoming resistant to our best antibiotics. Researchers are therefore spending much time trying to think of alternatives, one of which could be the use of bacteriophages -literally meaning bact

Title – Using Lean Practices to Develop Improvement Suggestions for a Warehouse: A case study of a company in the perishables industry Author – Leon Liljeqvist Supervisor – Joakim Kembro, Division of Engineering Logistics, Faculty of Engineering – LTH, Lund University Purpose – The purpose of this thesis is to improve the turnover of goods at the most prominent locations in the warehouse's

Många av oss sitter nog hemma på kammaren och funderar på hur vi kan bidra till en hållbar utveckling. Vi hör återkommande om de klimathot vi står inför och matas med uppgifter om det ansvar politiker, branscher och individer bär i frågan. Samtidigt är det många som uppfattar att samhället inte agerar helhjärtat. Kanske för att många trots uppmaningar inte vet hur? Med hjälp av teorin nudging, vilThe purpose of this study was to analyze how Retuna Återbruksgalleria by using Nudging, a behavioural theory, could operate as an environmental educator and attain a sustainable consumer which together could result in competitiveness on the market. Four different nudging tools was analyzed; simplification and framing of information, changes in the physical environment, the default option and the u

The thermal energy generated from the spallation process in the ESS facility must be cooled by cooling systems in order to ensure safe operation of the facility. It is of interest to understand what operating conditions of the cooling systems will ensure this safety for both stationary conditions and transient events. A part of the water cooling system in ESS was modeled in Dymola with the aid of

Charities play an essential role in Irish society. People benefit from support in health and social services, from social housing to specific health related organisations. It is important for charities to be able to invest in digital strategies which can support them in spreading the word of their cause, in raising awareness, in fundraising, and in recruiting talent.

Protonstrålning används för att generera neutroner på ESS; en effektiv metod som kommer ge ESS världsledande prestanda, men som medför utmaningar. Den högenergetiska protonstrålen kan inte ses med blotta ögat och kan potentiellt skada instrument, vilket leder till att övervaka protonstrålen blir svårt, men kritiskt. Lösningen är ett självlysande material som skapar en bild av var protonstrålen träSpallation sources such as European Spallation Source (ESS) produces neutrons by bombarding high-energy protons onto the target wheel. To determine the location of the proton beam a Proton Beam Imaging (PBI) system will be installed. The PBI system at ESS relies on the properties of a luminescent coating that is sprayed onto the target wheel and the proton beam window. In this study, luminescent m

This paper examines different authors and their reasons as to why they use pseudonyms. With the help of theories like Paratexts, Thresholds of Interpretation (1997) by Gérard Genette and Konvergenskulturen (2012) by Henry Jenkins, the essay provides an insight into why authors choose to use pseudonyms as well as publishers’ marketing strategies for this. To gain a better understanding of the world

Men's violence against women is a major global problem. Pornography often depicts humiliation and violence against women. Moreover, it becomes problematic to work for an equal society when children have free access to pornography online. Therefore, the aim of the study is to investigate how employees in Swedish healthcare and aid organizations perceive the relationship between online pornograp

The number of fixed-installation resource-constrained devices, such as Internet of Things devices, has been growing rapidly in the past years. One challenge of accommodating these large numbers of connected devices is the need to power them all. In this thesis, we investigate ways to reduce the power consumption of the door controller in an existing physical access control system, without compromi
