  1. 1. Minimal Problems and Applications in TOA and TDOA Localization

    Författare :Simon Burgess; Mathematical Imaging Group; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Calibration-Free Localization; TOA; TDOA; RSSI Localization;

    Sammanfattning : The central problem of this thesis is locating several sources and simultaneously locating the positions of the sensors. The measurements captured by the sensors are time of arrival (TOA), time difference of arrival (TDOA), unsynchronized TDOA, or received signal strength indication (RSSI), all a variation of distance measurement between sensors and sources.

  3. 2. A Search for Solar Neutralino Dark Matter with the AMANDA-II Neutrino Telescope

    Författare :Thomas Burgess; Christian Walck; Alessandro de Angelis; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Dark matter; AMANDA; Supersymmetry; WIMP; Neutralino; Neutrino; IceCube; Astroparticle physics; Astroparticle physics; Astropartikelfysik; Physics; fysik;

    Sammanfattning : A relic density of Weakly Interacting Massive Particles (WIMPs) remaining from the Big Bang constitutes a promising solution to the Dark Matter problem. It is possible for such WIMPs to be trapped by and accumulate in gravitational potentials of massive dense objects such as the Sun. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Design and Synthesis of Novel AT2 Receptor Ligands : From Peptides to Drug-Like Molecules

    Författare :Jennie Georgsson; Anders Hallberg; Kevin Burgess; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Pharmaceutical chemistry; angiotensin II; AT1; AT2; AT2 receptor agonist; peptidomimetics; γ-turn mimetics; carbonylation; microwave; molybdenum hexacarbonyl; Farmaceutisk kemi; Pharmaceutical chemistry; Farmaceutisk kemi;

    Sammanfattning : Many peptide receptors are of pharmaceutical interest and there is thus a need for new ligands for such receptors. Unfortunately, peptides are not suitable as orally administrated drugs since they are associated with poor absorption, rapid metabolism and low sub-receptor selectivity. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Arsenic in Alluvial Aquifers in the Meghna Basin, Southeastern Bangladesh : Hydrogeological and Geochemical Characterisation

    Författare :Md. Aziz Hasan; Prosun Bhattacharya; William Burgess; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Alluvial aquifer; groundwater; arsenic mobilisation; geology; Meghna basin; Bangladesh; Water engineering; Vattenteknik;

    Sammanfattning :  Elevated levels of arsenic (As) in Bangladesh groundwater has emerged as a massive calamity exposing a large population to the risk of As toxicity from drinking water sources and agricultural products. Holocene alluvial aquifers in the delta- and flood-plains of the Ganges-Brahmaputra- Meghna (GBM) river systems are severely affected by high levels of As in groundwater. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Essays in finance, trade and politics

    Författare :Helena Svaleryd; Robin Burgess; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Financial systems; Financial markets; Trade policy; Local government; gender; Sweden; Finansiella marknader; Handelsteori; Handelspolitik; Kommunal ekonomi; genusaspekter; Economics; nationalekonomi;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis consists of three essays in economics:Financial markets, industrial specialization and comparative advantage. Evidence from OECD countries. Due to underlying technological and organizational differences, industries differ in their need for external finance. LÄS MER
