  1. 21. Aspects of Dimensional Deconstruction and Neutrino Physics

    Författare :Tomas Hällgren; Tommy Ohlsson; Stephan J. Hubber; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Dimensional deconstruction; higher-dimensional gauge theories; discretized gravity; neutrino mass; neutrino mixing; neutrino oscillations; Engineering physics; Teknisk fysik;

    Sammanfattning : The existence of at or curved extra spatial dimensions provides new insights into several of the problems which face the Standard Model of particle physics, including the gauge hierarchy problem, the smallness of neutrino masses, and the dark matter problem. However, higher-dimensional gauge theories are not renormalizable and can only be considered as low-energy effective theories, with limited applicability. LÄS MER

  2. 22. De naturvetenskapliga ämnesspråken : De naturvetenskapliga uppgifterna i och elevers resultat från TIMSS 2011 år 8

    Författare :Tomas Persson; Caroline Liberg; Åsa af Geijerstam; Jonas Almqvist; Maria Andrée; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; science education; scientific language; assessment; readability formulas; student achievement; vocabulary; systemic functional linguistics; corpus linguistics; student achievement; Curriculum Studies; Didaktik;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis examines the scientific language in different subjects by analysing all grade 8 science items from TIMSS 2011, using four characteristic meaning dimensions of scientific language – Packing, Precision and Presentation of information, and the level of Personification in a text. The results, as well as results from established readability measures, are correlated with test performances of different student groups. LÄS MER

  3. 23. Quality of life and ethics-patients with ischemic heart disease

    Författare :Lars Westin; Medicinsk etik; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Kardiovaskulära systemet; Bioethics; Prognosis; Quality of life; Questionnaires; Cardiovascular system; Myocardial ischemia;

    Sammanfattning : One month and one year after acute myocardial infarction (AMI) (n=296), coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) (n=99) and percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) (n=18) patients completed a questionnaire for self-assessment of quality of life (QoL) during the period 1989?1991. Patients differed from age- and sex-matched controls (n=88) in both somatic and emotional dimensions, but less after one year of follow-up. LÄS MER

  4. 24. Quantum Random Access Codes & their Applications

    Författare :Alley Hameedi; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; fysik; Physics;

    Sammanfattning : Based on the principles of quantum mechanics, quantum information is a highly interesting and fast emerging field which refers to processing information encoded into the state of a quantum system and the subsequent use of such quantum systems for various information tasks. In this thesis, we have studied the role of single d-level quantum systems (qudits) as a quantum resource in the context of a communication task, commonly known as random access codes (RACs).

  5. 25. "Participation is everything" : young people's voices on participation in school life

    Författare :Jeanette Åkerström; Brunnberg Elinor; Osman Aytar; Ann Quennerstedt; Nigel Thomas; Örebro universitet; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; children’s rights; human rights; participation; youth; interactive research; mixed methods; communication; intersectionality; disability; Social Work; Socialt arbete;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis shows that participation is an important and comprehensive concept for young people. The aim of the thesis is to explore young people’s perspectives on and experiences of participation in school. Young people are in this research project understood as competent participants and as valuable contributors in research. LÄS MER
