  2. 1. The Milky Way as seen through Neutron-Capture Elements

    Author : Rebecca Forsberg; Astrofysik; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Chemical abundances; Galactic archaeology; chemically peculiar star; heavy elements; Galactic disk; Galactic bulge; Galactic chemical evolution;

    Abstract : Through stars, the formation and evolution of the Galaxy goes hand-in-hand with the cosmic origin of the elements. As stars form, they carry chemical fingerprints of their birthclouds, providing us with chemical timestamps of the Galaxy.The detailed history of the Galactic disk and bulge is still to be untagled.

  4. 2. Instrumentation for silicon tracking at the HL-LHC

    Author : Rebecca Carney; Samuel Silverstein; Sara Strandberg; Thomas Schön; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Instrumentation; physics; particle physics; atlas; radiation damage; neuromorphic; kalman filter; fysik; Physics;

    Abstract : In 2027 the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN will enter a high luminosity phase, deliver- ing 3000 fb 1 over the course of ten years. The High Luminosity LHC (HL-LHC) will increase the instantaneous luminosity delivered by a factor of 5 compared to the current operation pe- riod. READ MORE

  5. 3. Cancer biomarker discovery by in vitro systems biology

    Author : Rebecca Ceder; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : This Thesis was made with the intention to mechanistically assess and further develop a multi-stage cell line-based (in vitro) model for oral cancer development. Efforts of establishing additional tumor cell lines for expanding the model were coupled with the application of systems biology technologies for characterization of the three entities of the start-up model, including: 1) normal, 2) immortal and non-tumorigenic, versus 3) immortal and tumorigenic stages.

  6. 4. Task shifting in the provision of medical abortion

    Author : Rebecca Gomperts; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Introduction: Unsafe abortion is one of the main causes of maternal mortality. Each year, approximately 21.6 million women worldwide still undergo an unsafe abortion resulting in an estimated 47000 deaths. Currently 39% of the population lives in countries with highly restrictive abortion laws. READ MORE

  7. 5. Cellulose-based electrical insulation materials : Dielectric and mechanical properties

    Author : Rebecca Hollertz; Lars Wågberg; Markus Biesalski; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; cellulose; dielectric materials; electrical insulation; nanocellulose; nanoparticles; streamer; Fiber- och polymervetenskap; Fibre and Polymer Science;

    Abstract : The reliability of the generation and distribution of electricity is highly dependent on electrical insulation and is essential for the prosperity of our society and a ubiquitous part of our everyday life. The present study shows how some important material properties affect the electrical properties of cellulose-based electrical insulation systems which are used together with mineral oil in high-voltage transformers.
