   Författare :Linda Holmlund; Magnus Wikström; Niklas Hanes; Torberg Falch; Umeå universitet; []
   Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Child care demand; subsidized child care; dual care provider model; local public expenditures; income taxation; college quality; earnings; selection on observables; university choice; earnings distribution; Economics; Nationalekonomi; Economics; nationalekonomi;

   Sammanfattning : This thesis consists of a summary and four self-contained papers. Paper [I] examines whether fathers influence the time their children spend in subsidized child care. Two non-nested models of family child care demand are estimated. LÄS MER

   Sammanfattning : This thesis consists of three papers that examine college choice and earnings among university graduates in Sweden.Paper [I] analyzes how geographical accessibility to higher education affects university enrollment decisions in Sweden. LÄS MER

4. 3. Opportunity cost in healthcare priority setting

   Författare :Jonathan Siverskog; Martin Henriksson; Lars-Åke Levin; Werner Brouwer; Linköpings universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES;

   Sammanfattning : The resources available for the public provision of health care are not unlimited. Cost-effectiveness evidence on new healthcare interventions can help us prioritise in order to use scarce resources wisely, but to interpret cost-effectiveness evidence, it may appear as if we must make trade-offs between life and money. This is not so. LÄS MER

5. 4. Bayesian inference for high dimensional factor copula models

   Författare :Hoang Nguyen; Maria Conception Ausin Olivera; Pedro Galeano San Miguel; Universidad Carlos III de Madrid; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

   Sammanfattning : Copulas have been applied to many research areas as multivariate probability distributions for non-linear dependence structures. However, extending copula functions in high dimensions is challenging due to the increase of model parameters and computational intensity. LÄS MER

7. 5. Study of the production of π, K and p in pp collisions at √s = 13 TeV as a function of the Transverse Spherocity and the Relative Transverse Activity

   Författare :Omar Vazquez Rueda; Partikel- och kärnfysik; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; LHC; ALICE; Quark-Gluon Plasma; Small Systems; pp Collisions; Underlying Event; Transverse Spherocity; Relative Transverse Activity; Fysicumarkivet A:2022:Vázquez Rueda;

   Sammanfattning : High-energy heavy-ion collisions allow the Quark-Gluon Plasma (QGP) production and study, a state of high-density QCD matter in which quarks and gluons are no longer confined inside hadrons for a very short time. Different observables reveal an enhanced production of strange hadrons, signatures of collective effects and opacity to jets due to the QGP formation. LÄS MER
