  1. 1. Geographic polarization and clustering of partisan voting: A local-level analysis of Stockholm Municipality

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Author : Jonas Almén; [2023]
    Keywords : Geography; GIS; Spatial Analysis; Spatial Autocorrelation; MAUP; Electoral Geography; Political Polarization; Geographic Polarization; Stockholm Municipality; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : In the last decade, the topic of political polarization has become a growing concern within academic and public debate. Many highlight the linkage between increased political polarization and democratic problems such as political tribalism and uncivil activism. It is also argued to be a global phenomenon. READ MORE

  3. 2. DECENTRALIZATION AND COVID-19 OUTCOMES. Investigating the relationship between levels of decentralization and COVID-19 excess mortality rates.

    University essay from Göteborgs universitet/Statsvetenskapliga institutionen

    Author : Ruslan Nasirov; [2022-11-07]
    Keywords : decentralization; types of decentralization; COVID-19; excess mortality rate;

    Abstract : The COVID-19 pandemic created far reaching societal disruptions around the globe, forcing governments to respond to protect the wellbeing of their citizens. Because of a large variation in conditions – between geography, capacity, density etc. – countries resorted to different methods which led to differing results. READ MORE

  4. 3. Demonstrating quantum entanglement and Hong-Ou-Mandel effect, using type-II spontaneous parametric down conversion with C programming for data collection

    University essay from KTH/Fysik

    Author : Erik Svanberg; Johan Johannisson Lundquist; [2022]
    Keywords : Quantum entanglement; polarization; HOM; Hong-Ou-Mandel; indistinguishability; type-II SPDC; spontaneous parametric down conversion; non-linear crystal; beam splitter; indistinguishable photons; data collection in C;

    Abstract : Spontaneous parametric down conversion (SPDC) is used to generate quantum entangled photons through a non-linear crystal. The entanglement of photons is demonstrated by observing the effects of indistinguishability on photons, first through time and energy, then by polarization. The Hong-Ou-Mandel (HOM) effect was also demonstrated. READ MORE

  5. 4. Polarization in sustainability? The explanatory power of concern and left-right placement on environmentally significant behaviors among Swedes

    University essay from Göteborgs universitet/Statsvetenskapliga institutionen

    Author : Emelie Eriksson; [2021-01-27]
    Keywords : environmentally significant behaviors; environmental concern; left-right placement; recycling; sustainability;

    Abstract : Environmentally significant behavior is becoming an increasingly relevant topic in environmentally focused research, which aims to explain why people adopt these behaviors and thus understand how sustainability can be promoted. A long-held perception of environmental behavior is that it is more commonly occurring among “leftists” because they have been shown to exhibit higher levels of environmental concern. READ MORE

  6. 5. Generating quantum entangled photons

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för teknikvetenskap (SCI)

    Author : Stephan Nieto; Daniel Sanaee; [2021]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : In this project a laser setup was constructed, quantum entangled photons were generated and two different methods were used to show said entanglement. The entangled photons were generated through a process called spontaneous parametric down conversion (SPDC). READ MORE
