  2. 1. The role of magnetic perturbations in runaway electron and sawtooth dynamics

    Author : Gergely Papp; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; tokamak; runaway electron; sawtooth oscillation; magnetic perturbation; MHD mode; fusion plasma physics;

    Abstract : Nuclear fusion in tokamaks is a possible future energy production mechanism. Some of the still unsolved problems are connected to the effect of magnetic perturbations on the radial plasma transport. Two such problems are addressed in this thesis. READ MORE

  4. 2. The role of magnetic perturbations in runaway electron and sawtooth dynamics

    Author : Gergely Papp; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; magnetic perturbation; fusion plasma physics; runaway mitigation; sawtooth oscillation; tokamak; runaway electrons;

    Abstract : As the world's fusion energy program is increasingly focused towards burning plasma experiments, it is important to address the remaining theoretical issues. In this thesis we focus on the effect of magnetic perturbations on the radial plasma transport. READ MORE

  5. 3. Hatha yogic exercises for physical function in healthy individuals and patients with obstructive respiratory disorders

    Author : Marian E Papp; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Background and aim: The use of hatha yogic exercises (YE) is increasing, with both healthy individuals and patients asking for alternative treatments and other means of prevention and exercise. To investigate the physical effects and experiences of practicing YE among different groups thus seem important. READ MORE

  6. 4. Growth hormones in chronic kidney disease

    Author : Erik Nilsson; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Several hormonal systems are disrupted in chronic kidney disease (CKD) and disturbances of the growth hormone axis could contribute to increased morbidity and mortality through effects on cardiovascular health, energy metabolism and inflammation. The overall aim of this thesis was to increase knowledge about hormonal alterations and their consequences in CKD, focusing on cardiovascular disease (CVD), mortality and the growth hormone axis in end-stage renal disease.

  7. 5. Cardiovascular function in normal pregnancy and fetal growth

    Author : Charlotte Iacobaeus; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Background: Pregnancy is a challenge to a woman’s cardiovascular system, and extensive haemodynamic changes are required for optimal utero-placental circulation and fetal growth. The aim of this thesis was firstly to examine different aspects of vascular function in the same women longitudinally during normal pregnancy, and secondly to explore whether there is an association between maternal cardiovascular function, placental function, and fetal growth.
