  1. 11. Theoretical methods for the electronic structure and magnetism of strongly correlated materials

    Author : Inka L. M. Locht; Igor Di Marco; Silke Biermann; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; dynamical mean field theory DMFT ; Hubbard I approximation; strongly correlated systems; rare earths; lanthanides; photoemission spectra; ultrafast magnetization dynamics; analytic continuation; Padé approximant method; two-particle Green s functions; linear muffin tin orbitals LMTO ; density functional theory DFT ; cerium; stacking fault energy.; Physics with spec. in Atomic; Molecular and Condensed Matter Physics; Fysik med inriktning mot atom- molekyl- och kondenserande materiens fysik;

    Abstract : In this work we study the interesting physics of the rare earths, and the microscopic state after ultrafast magnetization dynamics in iron. Moreover, this work covers the development, examination and application of several methods used in solid state physics. The first and the last part are related to strongly correlated electrons.

  3. 13. Non-specific Low Back Pain - Classification and Treatment

    Author : Tom Petersen; Lund Ortopedi; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; revalidation; rehabilitation; Rehabilitering medicinsk och social ; kinesitherapy; Physical medicine; Physical Examination; Diagnosis; Outcome; Validity; Low Back Pain; Reliability; Classification;

    Abstract : The aims of this thesis were to investigate the effects of the Mc-Kenzie method of mechanical diagnosis and therapy compared with that of intensive dynamic strengthening training for patients with non-specific low back pain (NLBP), and to develop a clinical diagnostic classification system for use in primary care. The McKenzie method is one of the most common methods for examination and treatment of patients with NSLBP used by physiotherapists in the Western World. READ MORE

  4. 14. Gait speed, physical activity, cognitive function and dementia : associations in cross-sectional and longitudinal studies and validity of a physical activity questionnaire in very old people

    Author : Jerry Öhlin; Annika Toots; Birgitta Olofsson; Håkan Littbrand; Stefan Söderberg; Anna Cristina Åberg; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Gait speed; cognitive function; dementia; physical activity; aged 80 and over; physiotherapy; fysioterapi;

    Abstract : Dementia and cognitive impairment are leading causes of disability in older people (≥ 65 years) and gait speed decline seem to be an early indicator of these conditions, sometimes preceding clinical symptoms. Dementia may be delayed or prevented with management of risk factors, such as low physical activity. READ MORE

  5. 15. Artificial Photosynthesis: Molecular Catalysts for Water Oxidation

    Author : Lei Wang; Licheng Sun; Hiroshi Imahori; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; artificial photosynthesis; water oxidation; ruthenium complexes; nickel complexes; cerium; photo-catalysts; photosensitizer; electrochemistry; immobilization.; Kemi; Chemistry; Energiteknik; Energy Technology;

    Abstract : Artificial photosynthesis provides a promising solution to the future sustainable energy system. Water is the only suitably sufficient protons and electrons supplier by the reaction of water oxidation. However, this reaction is both kinetically and thermodynamically demanding, leading to a sluggish kinetics unless the introduction of a catalyst. READ MORE
