    Abstract : The aim of this thesis is to enhance our understanding of Swedish marine insurers' choices of business strategies under the potentially difficult business circumstances of the interwar period 1918-1939. Little previous research exists on marine insurance during the interwar period. READ MORE

  3. 3. Swedish marine insurance between the World Wars

    Author : Gustav Jakob Petersson; Magnus Lindmark; Lars-Fredrik Andersson; Dan Bäcklund; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; marine insurance; interwar period; economic crises; financial crises; deflation crisis; great depression; risk; trade; exchange-rate fluctuations; strategy; reinsurance; diversification; Economic history; Ekonomisk historia; ekonomisk historia; Economic History;

    Abstract : The present licentiate thesis analyses developments in Swedish marine insurance during the interwar period, including both direct marine insurance and marine reinsurance. This is done in order to provide insights on how companies of a highly internationalised and vulnerable line of insurance were affected by and responded to new risks during a period of far-reaching international financial and economic crises.

  4. 4. Monitoring Proton Exchange and Triplet States with Fluorescence

    Author : Tor Sandén; Jerker Widengren; Vogel Horst; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; fluorescence correlation spectroscopy; proton transfer; cytochrome c oxidase; transient state imaging; modulated excitation; Optics; Optik; Biochemistry; Biokemi;

    Abstract : Fluorescent molecules commonly shift to transient dark states, induced bylight or triggered by chemical reactions. The transient dark states can beused as probes of the local environment surrounding the fluorescent molecules,and are therefore attractive for use in biomolecular applications. READ MORE

  5. 5. Protein Dynamics Studied by NMR Spin Relaxation. Conformational Transitions of a Calmodulin Mutant

    Author : Patrik Lundström; Biofysikalisk kemi; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Molekylär biofysik; Molecular biophysics; spin relaxation; rotating-frame; NMR; multiple-quantum; EF-hand; chemical shift; chemical exchange; calcium binding proteins; calmodulin;

    Abstract : Binding of calcium to the protein calmodulin leads to molecular reorganization that enables interaction with target peptides and activation of downstream processes. I have studied the dynamics of the calcium-loaded form of a C-terminal calmodulin mutant (E140Q-Tr2C) using NMR spin relaxation experiments. READ MORE
