2. 1. Growth and Business Cycles -Swedish Manufacturing Industry 1952-2001

   Author : Camilla Josephson; Lennart Schön; Deirdre Nansen MC Closkey; Ekonomisk-historiska institutionen; []
   Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Ekonomisk och social historia; Social and economic history; Nutidshistoria från 1914 ; Contemporary history since 1914 ; Manufacturing industry; Institutional change; Knowledge accumulation; Opportunity costs; The cointegrated VAR model; Business cycles; Economic growth; TFP growth; Cyclical economics; Konjunkturteori; cykliska förlopp; Contemporary history;

   Abstract : This study shows that the mechanisms behind knowledge accumulation and the sources of productivity growth differ from industry to industry depending on what is produced and what technology is used. Although it is apparent to most researchers in the field that the only way to explain long-run growth in output per capita is through technological progress and accumulation of knowledge that counteract the dampening effect of diminishing returns, we are still in the dark about how such mechanisms operate.

4. 2. Epitaxial growth of semiconductor nanowires

   Author : Ann Persson; Fasta tillståndets fysik; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; materialteknik; nanowires; nanostructures; growth mechanism; Materiallära; Material technology; Halvledarfysik; Semiconductory physics; nanoelectronics; Au; VSS; VLS; surface diffusion; band gap engineering; InP; ternary system; GaAs; heterostructures; InAs; CBE; epitaxy;

   Abstract : This thesis describes the results obtained from investigations carried out on epitaxially grown III-V semiconductor nanowires aimed at improving our understanding of and knowledge on the growth mechanism of nanowires. This is important to be able to control their growth, in order to make future applications possible. READ MORE

5. 3. Economic Growth and Fiscal Policy

   Author : Pontus Hansson; Nationalekonomiska institutionen; []
   Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Nationalekonomi; economic policy; economic systems; economic theory; econometrics; public debt; Economics; tax harmonization; financial lending; economic growth; fiscal policy; ekonometri; ekonomisk teori; ekonomiska system; ekonomisk politik; Financial science; Finansiering;

   Abstract : This thesis deals with the two subjects economic growth and fiscal policy. The first three chapters after the introduction are theoretical approaches to the determination of long-run growth. In each of these chapters, the ability of fiscal policy to influence long-run growth is examined as well. READ MORE

6. 4. Nutrition in infancy - Clinical studies on dietary intake, metabolism and growth

   Author : Pia Karlsland Åkeson; Preventiv pediatrik; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; urea; triglycerides; protein intake; nutrition; Mediterranean; infant; growth; formula; fat intake; energy intake; diet; C-peptide; cholesterol; breast milk; bioavailability; amino acids; apolipoproteins; weaning; weaning foods; Pediatrics; Pediatri;

   Abstract : Nutrition in infancy - Clinical studies on dietary intake, metabolism and growth Our aims were to try to determine an appropriate formula protein concentration to be used during the second half of infancy and to evaluate the effects on plasma lipids when breast milk was exchanged for formula and/or weaning foods. Both aspects were studied with special regard to the influence of traditional weaning foods. READ MORE

7. 5. Receptors for growth hormone and prolactin. Regulation and activation

   Author : Gunnel Hellgren; Göteborgs universitet; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Growth hormone; GH receptor; Janus kinase; GH sensitivity; 5 -untranslated region; prolactin; prolactin receptor adipose tissue; liver; skeletal muscle; epidermal growth factor receptor; tyrosine kinase; kinase activity;

   Abstract : Cytokine receptor activation is dependent on ligand-induced receptor dimerization or oligomerization and subsequent activation of several intracellular proteins. Activation of Janus kinases (Jaks) is probably the first intracellular event that occurs after receptor dimerization. READ MORE
