16. Estnisk satsföljd och meningsstruktur
Sammanfattning : This thesis considers Estonian clause order and sentence structures in fiction, scientific prose, women’s magazines, newspapers and on private web pages. The material covers 4488 sentences exhibiting 197 more or less discrepant sentence structures. Recurrent constructions are clause enumerations, iterations, chains and webs. LÄS MER
17. Effects of Dark Matter in Astrophysical Systems
Sammanfattning : When studying astrophysical structures with sizes ranging from dwarf galaxies to galaxy clusters, it becomes clear that there are vast amounts of unobservable gravitating mass. A compelling hypothesis is that this missing mass, which we call dark matter, consists of elementary particles that can be described in the same manner as those of the standard model of particle physics.

18. Supersymmetry vis-à-vis Observation : Dark Matter Constraints, Global Fits and Statistical Issues
Sammanfattning : Weak-scale supersymmetry is one of the most favoured theories beyond the Standard Model of particle physics that elegantly solves various theoretical and observational problems in both particle physics and cosmology. In this thesis, I describe the theoretical foundations of supersymmetry, issues that it can address and concrete supersymmetric models that are widely used in phenomenological studies. LÄS MER
19. Genetic Consequences of Dispersal and Social Behavior in Lions, Panthera leo
Sammanfattning : This thesis combines behavioral observations of African lions (Panthera leo) with genetic analyses, in an attempt to clarify causes and consequences of lion group living. The numerous complex cooperative behaviors of lions present an excellent opportunity to investigate the evolution and maintenance of group living. LÄS MER
20. High-contrast imaging of low-mass companions and debris disks
Sammanfattning : The search for exoplanets, i.e., planets orbiting other stars than the Sun, is a relatively new research field, but has already established itself as one of the most prolific and intriguing areas of astronomy. LÄS MER
