Nucleosynthesis is the mechanism which produces new elements in nuclear reactions. Nuclear reaction rates are highly temperature dependant, and nuclear reactions take place in very hot environments. Current theories predict that the light elements such as hydrogen and helium were produced during the Big Bang. On the other hand, the core of stars produce heavier elements through nuclear fusion. The

By the beginning the second decade of twentieth century, a new regime came to power in Iran. While considering the Iranian society, her institutions, mechanisms and structures as a backward and dysfunctional one, the new regime started to set up a new order, based on modern values. In this case, old urban structures were among those aspects of the Iranian culture and society which were selected a

Stellar abundances are important for understanding the chemical evolution of galaxies and provide us with constraints on stellar evolution and supernova nucleosynthesis. To determine stellar abundances accurately, atomic data is crucial. This data is incomplete for many elements, especially in the infrared region. In particular, hyperfine structure (hfs) data in the near-infrared region is lacking

Sverige präglas idag av en stark urbaniseringstrend, där inflyttning främst sker till våra tre storstadsregioner. Ett problem som försvårar urbaniseringen är att utbudet av bostäder inte möter den stora efterfrågan som uppstått. Byggbar mark i centrala lägen betraktas dessutom ofta som fullt ianspråktagen. På så vis har en diskussion om möjligheter att effektivisera markanvändningen uppstått. DettToday, Sweden is characterized by a strong urbanisation trend, where occupation mainly takes place in our three metropolitan regions, Stockholm, Gothenburg and Malmö. A problem that complicates the urbanisation is the fact that supply does not meet the demand of housing, which has arisen in these areas. In addition, buildable land in central areas is often considered to be fully claimed. Thus, a d

In recent years, Chinese corporate bond markets have grown at a remarkable rate. This thesis aims to examine the impact of corporate bond issuances on the momentum of stock prices by applying the event study. Our study comprises 212 corporate bond samples in the Chinese bond market from 2012 to 2016. Additionally, we investigate whether firm-specific and bond-specific characteristics correlate to

Denna uppsats avhandlar förvaltningen av dödsbo och det skydd som borgenärer har för sina fordringar både enligt ärvdabalken och enligt annan lagstiftning. Den rättsliga reglering som omgärdar dödsboförvaltning är till åren kommen och är i visst behov av att sättas i en nutida kontext. Uppsatsen utmynnar i slutsatsen att samtidigt som borgenärsskyddet är starkt, främst med avseende på ärvdabalkensThis thesis is about the administration of Swedish decedent estates and the creditors’ financial security of claims according to Swedish legislation. The legal regulation on the administration of descendent estates is dated and has some need to be updated. The findings of the thesis are as follows: the creditor’s security has a strong status, primarily due to the inheritance code’s requirement of

Studiens syfte är att utvidga kunskapen om berggrunden på södra Gotlands och koppla det till den ansträngda grundvattensituation i området. Materialet till studien kommer från Sveriges geologiska undersök-ning (SGU) som utfört geofysiska borrhålsmätningar och flygburna resistivitetsmätningar (SkyTEM) och från Olje-prospekterings AB (OPAB) som på 70- och 80-talet gjorde borrningar på Gotland i syftThis study aims to expand the knowledge about the bedrock in southern Gotland and link it to the strained groundwater situation that is there. The material for the study comes from the Swedish Geological Survey (SGU) which conducted geophysical borehole measurements and airborne resistivity measurements (SkyTEM) and from OPAB, which in the 70’s and 80’s drilled several wells on Gotland for the pur

Lignin accounts for 15 – 30 % of plant biomass, but is till today remarkably underutilized, mainly due to its heterogeneity and recalcitrance towards depolymerization. The bacterial conversion of lignin into value added chemicals is a highly promising approach to overcome this underutilization and can help to improve the economic competitiveness of the biorefinery concept. In the current study, 1

Det huvudsakliga syftet var att kartlägga motivationen hos yrkesarbetarna och tjänstemännen på ett grundläggningsföretag.

During this period, Sweden received approximately 156 400 refugees, putting Sweden’s social infrastructure under enormous pressure. As a result of the stressful working conditions, a large amount of social workers

Today, the discussion regarding the environmental degradation is more active and pressing than ever. In Paris 2015, world leaders signed Agenda 2030, binding them to actively work to keep the global temperature increase below 2 degrees Celsius. This agreement also targets the need for sustainable energy for all humans. The purpose of this paper is to evaluate whether FDI has an effect on the consu

The ingredients generally used in the fermentation of probiotics tend to give an off-flavour to the fermentation product which is not ideal when producing e.g. fruit drinks. The aim of this master thesis was to evaluate if the concentration of such ingredients could be lowered and also to investigate whether there are other ingredients that could act as substitutes to those ingredients giving off-

The aim of this master thesis was to produce meatballs with different characteristics and from these, find the meatball that oxidized the most. For the production, minced meat with different concentrations of salt and fat from both beef and pork was used. Half of the meatballs were pan-fried and the other half was deep fat fried. Additionally, three different storage times were applied. The meatba
