1. 1. The Quest for M-theory

   Författare :Ulf Gran; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; supersymmetry; solitons; gauge symmetry; M-theory; string theory; duality; p-branes; D-branes; superspace; supergravity;

   Sammanfattning : In ten dimensions, there exist five consistent string theories and in eleven dimensions there is a unique supergravity theory. When trying to find the fundamental theory of nature this is clearly an "embarrassment of riches". In the mid 90s, however, it was discovered that these theories are all related via a kind of transformation called duality. LÄS MER

3. 2. Social delaktighet i teori och praktik : Om barns sociala delaktighet i förskolans verksamhet

   Författare :Eva Melin; Ulf Janson; Britta Högberg; Bert Danermark; Stockholms universitet; []
   Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; children s participation; participation in preschool; preschools acitivities; structure-agency; emergence; supervenience; critical realism; pedagogik; Education;

   Sammanfattning : This thesis seeks to explain social participation in pre-schools for children with and without Down’s syndrome. The explanation is achieved by use of an explanatory model of social participation, designed on the basis of critical realism, which has been used in an empirical study of how social participation emerges in practice.

4. 3. Ships, clouds, and waves : understanding ecosystems in traditional industries

   Författare :Peter Gustafsson; Zsuzsanna Vincze; Sujith Nair; Llewellyn D.W. Thomas; Umeå universitet; []
   Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Ecosystems; Orchestration; Emergence; Traditional Industries; Shipbuilding; Resource Dependence Theory; Collective Action Theory; Corporate Political Activity;

   Sammanfattning : This dissertation builds on a jointly phenomenological and theoretical approach to investigate how traditional industries face challenges related to ecosystem innovation. Phenomenologically, it investigates how innovation within the shipbuilding industry affects the activities performed by firms that have traditionally filled the role of suppliers to shipyards.

5. 4. Emergence of words : Multisensory precursors of sound-meaning associations in infancy

   Författare :Eeva Klintfors; Francisco Lacerda; Daniel Swingley; Stockholms universitet; []
   Nyckelord :HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; language acquisition; word acquisition; auditory-visual; multisensory; sound-meaning association; distributional learning; perceptual salience; infancy; språkinlärning; ordinlärning; audio-visuell; multisensorisk; förbindelser mellan ljud och betydelse; distributionell inlärning; perceptuell prominens; spädbarn; Phonetics; Fonetik; Phonetics; fonetik;

   Sammanfattning : This thesis presents four experimental studies, carried out at the Phonetic laboratory, Stockholm University, on infants’ ability to establish auditory-visual sound-meaning associations as a precursor of early word acquisition. Study I reports on the effect of linguistic variance on infants’ ability (3- to 20-months) to establish sound-meaning associations. LÄS MER

7. 5. Embodied Rituals and Ritualized Bodies : Tracing Ritual Practcies in Late Mesolithic Burials

   Sammanfattning : This thesis explores the ritual dimensions of the mortuary practices in the late Mesolithic cemeteries at Skateholm in Southern Sweden and Vedbæk-Bøgebakken in Eastern Denmark. With a combination of methods and theories that all focus on the ritual practices as action, a new approach to burials in archaeology is proposed. LÄS MER
