  1. 1. Gravitational perturbations in plasmas and cosmology

    Author : Mats Forsberg; Gert Brodin; Michael Bradley; Christopher Clarkson; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; general relativity; cosmology; gravitational waves; plasma; electromagnetic waves; nonlinear waves; Plasma physics; Plasmafysik; Theory of relativity; gravitation; Relativitetsteori; gravitation; Cosmology; Kosmologi; teoretisk fysik; Theoretical Physics;

    Abstract : Gravitational perturbations can be in the form of scalars, vectors or tensors. This thesis focuses on the evolution of scalar perturbations in cosmology, and interactions between tensor perturbations, in the form of gravitational waves, and plasma waves. READ MORE

  2. 2. Robust Image Registration for Improved Clinical Efficiency : Using Local Structure Analysis and Model-Based Processing

    Author : Daniel Forsberg; Hans Knutsson; Mats Andersson; Claes Lundström; Wiro Niessen; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Image registration; deformable models; scoliosis; visualization; volume rendering; adaptive regularization; GPGPU; CUDA;

    Abstract : Medical imaging plays an increasingly important role in modern healthcare. In medical imaging, it is often relevant to relate different images to each other, something which can prove challenging, since there rarely exists a pre-defined mapping between the pixels in different images.

  3. 3. Genetic Aspects of Sexual Selection and Mate Choice in Salmonids

    Author : Lars Forsberg; Mats Grahn; Jacob Höglund; Claus Wedekind; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Biology; mate choice; Mhc; Major histocompatibility complex; class IIB; disassortative; assortative; microsatellite; outbreeding; supportive breeding; population; population genetics; Biologi; Biology; Biologi;

    Abstract : The long-term genetic consequences of supportive breeding programs are not well understood. Nevertheless, stocking populations with hatchery-produced fish to compensate for losses of natural production are common practice, for example after constructions of hydroelectric power dams.

  4. 4. Neighbors at Risk : A Quantitative Study of Civil War Contagion

    Author : Erika Forsberg; Mats Hammarström; Håvard Hegre; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; conflict contagion; internationalization of conflict; civil war; ethnic conflict; transnational ethnic groups; ethnic polarization; refugee flows; domino effects; Peace and conflict research; Freds- och konfliktforskning; Peace and Conflict Research; freds- och konfliktforskning;

    Abstract : While previous research shows that civil wars can spread to neighboring states, we do not know why certain neighbors are more at risk than others. To address this research gap, this dissertation proposes a contagion process approach that can identify the most likely targets of contagion effects from an ongoing conflict. READ MORE

  5. 5. Philosophy, Literature and the Inheritance of Language

    Author : Niklas Forsberg; Sören Stenlund; Sharon Rider; Mats Rosengren; Uppsala universitet; []
