  1. 6. The bright lights grow fainter : livelihoods, migration and a small town in Zimbabwe

    Författare :Agnes Andersson; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Zimbabwe; livelihood; migration; mobility; provisioning; structural adjustment; Rusape; small towns; kin networks; Human Geography; kulturgeografi; Human Geography; kulturgeografi;

    Sammanfattning : The Aids pandemic and structural adjustment policies (SAP) have had effects on lower income households in Zimbabwe which have been devastating and people have been required to adapt their livelihood strategies. Small towns meanwhile are growing rapidly in Zimbabwe and mobility towards these towns may be connected with the changes being forged by SAP on the economic landscape. LÄS MER

  2. 7. Bright Needles in a Haystack : A Search for Magnetic Monopoles Using the IceCube Neutrino Observatory

    Författare :Alexander Burgman; Carlos Pérez de los Heros; Olga Botner; Allan Hallgren; David Milstead; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; magnetic monopole; IceCube; astroparticle physics; neutrino telescope; Fysik med inriktning mot elementarpartikelfysik; Physics with specialization in Elementary Particle Physics;

    Sammanfattning : The IceCube Neutrino Observatory at the geographic South Pole is designed to detect the light produced by the daughter-particles of in-ice neutrino-nucleon interactions, using one cubic kilometer of ice instrumented with more than 5000 optical sensors.Magnetic monopoles are hypothetical particles with non-zero magnetic charge, predicted to exist in many extensions of the Standard Model of particle physics.

  3. 8. The bright side of life : support in municipal elderly home care

    Författare :Margaretha Norell Pejner; Bodil Wilde; Örebro universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Emotion; elderly home care; intervention; priorities; support; registered nurse; older patients; serenity; Vårdvetenskap; Nursing Science;

    Sammanfattning : Registered nurses in municipal elderly home care have in some occasionsdifficulties in identifying the patients’ needs and prioritize intervention inaccordance with the patients’ preferences, which is to obtain social and emotional support. The overall aim was to explore and describe which supportive interventions registered nurses use in municipal elderly home care settings and if it is in agreement with the patient’s preferences.

  4. 9. Winter Fatigue and Winter Depression : Prevalence and Treatment with Bright Light

    Författare :Cecilia Rastad; Per Lindberg; Jan Ulfberg; Per-Olof Sandman; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Caring sciences; Vårdvetenskap;

    Sammanfattning : The aim of this thesis is to study prevalence of winter depressive mood and treatment effects of bright light for persons with winter fatigue and winter depression. Study I is a cross-sectional survey of a random sample (N=1657) from the general population between 18-65 years of age in Dalarna, Sweden (latitude 60°N). LÄS MER

  5. 10. Bright and strain-tunable semiconductor quantum dot devices

    Författare :Thomas Lettner; Val Zwiller; Klaus D. Jöns; Oliver Benson; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; quantum dots; single–photons; entanglement; strain–tunable; kvantprickar; singelfotoner; sammanflätning; töjnings-justerbar; Optik och fotonik; Optics and Photonics;

    Sammanfattning : Optically active semiconductor quantum dots have proven to be excellent single- and entangled-photon sources, with applications in quantum optics and quantum photonics. These sources are considered crucial in the development of future photonic quantum technology, such as quantum communication, quantum computation and quantum metrology. LÄS MER
