  1. 1. But What Do They Mean? : Modelling Contrast Between Speakers in Dialogue Signalled by “But”

    Författare :Kavita Elisheba Thomas; Colin Matheson; Keith Stenning; Johanna Moore; Ivana Kruijff-Korbayova; University of Edinburgh; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; English dialogue; discourse markers; coherence relations;

    Sammanfattning : Understanding what is being communicated in a dialogue involves determining how it is coherent, that is, how the successive turns in the dialogue are related, what the speakers’ intentions, goals, beliefs, and expectations are and how they relate to each other’s responses. This thesis aims to address how turns in dialogue are related when one speaker indicates contrast with something in the preceding discourse signalled by “but”. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Low-Energy Ion Escape from the Terrestrial Polar Regions

    Författare :Erik Engwall; Anders I. Eriksson; Mats André; Thomas Moore; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; space physics; ion outflow; polar wind; auroral upflows; atmospheric escape; magnetotail lobes; spacecraft wake; electric field measurements; Geocosmophysics and plasma physics; Geokosmofysik och plasmafysik; Space and Plasma Physics; rymd- och plasmafysik;

    Sammanfattning : The contemporary terrestrial atmosphere loses matter at a rate of around 100,000 tons per year. A major fraction of the net mass loss is constituted by ions, mainly H+ and O+, which escape from the Earth’s ionosphere in the polar regions. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Deciphering the Mechanistic Diversity of Proton-Coupled Electron Transfer Reactions

    Författare :Robin Tyburski; Leif Hammarström; Thomas Moore; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; PCET; Proton Coupled Electron Transfer;

    Sammanfattning : Proton coupled electron transfer is ubiquitous in biological and artificial reaction systems. Much has been done in order to describe the occurrence of such reactions. However, PCET reactivity is often very complex. For instance, there are multiple (stepwise and concerted) mechanistic pathways through which PCET may occur. LÄS MER
