    Abstract : Background The definition of self-harm used in this project is repeated, impulsive behaviour causing tissue damage, yet not intended as a suicide attempt. Instead of wishing to die, the person who self-harms wishes to be relieved from anxiety. READ MORE

  4. 2. Hope Rites : An Ethnographic Study of Mechanical Help-Heart Implantation Treatment

    Author : Haris Agic; Marja-Liisa Honkasalo; Lars-Christer Hydén; Robert Desjarlais; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : Medical technology; uncertainty; ritual; emotions; ethnography; liminality; end-stage heart failure; mechanical help-heart; progress; hope.; Medicinsk teknologi; ovisshet; ritual; emotioner; etnografi; liminalitet; akut svår hjärtsvikt; mekaniskt hjälphjärta; framsteg; hopp.;

    Abstract : This thesis is about cultural aspects of advanced medical technology for treating end-stage heart failure. New medical technologies like mechanical help-hearts save lives, but they also bring new uncertainties, risks, and challenges. READ MORE

  6. 4. Investigating the potential of current and future neutrino detectors to identify the sources of the astrophysical neutrinos seen by IceCube

    Author : Maryon Ahrens; Chad Finley; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; fysik; Physics;

    Abstract : High energy neutrino astronomy aims to view the universe with a new messenger, the neutrino. This messenger provides another window onto the universe, complementing what we can learn from photons, cosmic rays, and gravitational waves. READ MORE

  7. 5. On state space structure and average case complexity in random K-SAT problems

    Author : John Ardelius; Erik Aurell; Bart Selman; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Computer science; Datavetenskap;

    Abstract : This thesis gives an introduction to a currently active area in the cross-section between theoretical computer science and theoretical physics. In the last ten years it has been suggested that critical behaviour, usually seen in models from condensed matter physics, may be responsible for the intractability of NP complete computation problems.
