1. 1. Securitized or Not Securitized? : A Case Study of Sweden's COVID-19 Strategy During the First Year of the Pandemic

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Statsvetenskapliga institutionen

   Author : Max Anklev; [2024]
   Keywords : Securitization Theory; De securitization; Non-securitization; COVID-19; Sweden;

   Abstract : This thesis analyzes Sweden's unique and puzzling approach to the COVID-19 pandemic by using the securitization framework, exploring if Sweden's strategy during the pandemic's first year reflects securitization, (de)securitization, or non-securitization. It employs content analysis to evaluate Sweden's response, analyzing primary sources and academic literature, and uses a discourse table based on existing theoretical studies by Barry Buzan, Ole Waever, and Jaap de Wilde (1998) and Lene Hansen (2012) to assess indicators of securitization, (de)securitization or non-securitization.

3. 2. Prospects for a Free Electron Laser at the FemtoMAX Beamline

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Synkrotronljusfysik; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen

   Author : Johan Holmberg; [2024]
   Keywords : Free Electron Lasers; FEL; synchrotron radiation; MAX IV; FemtoMAX; GENESIS 1.3; XFEL; X-rays; soft X-rays; Physics and Astronomy;

   Abstract : A Free Electron Laser (FEL), is a device that generates extremely coherent and brilliant radiation using electrons accelerated to relativistic velocities in a particle accelerator. The process utilises similar equipment to what is used at a synchrotron source like MAX IV, but in addition there is an interaction between the relativistic electron beam and the generated radiation to achieve an exponential growth in radiation intensity.

5. 4. Flexible Future : Exploring The Effects of Real Time Prices on Swedish Households’ Price Responsiveness

   University essay from KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)

   Author : Arvid Jonsson; Theo Målsten; [2023]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : The exceptionally high electricity prices in Sweden during 2022 changed the common view about electricity consumption and an increasing number of households switched from fixed or monthly contracts to real time price (RTP) contracts. Historically, there has been a limited amount of real user data on RTP customers and their consumption behaviors. READ MORE

6. 5. Improving the Usability of Complex Life Science Software : Designing for a significant difference in skill among users in a scientific work domain

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för informatik och media

   Author : Erik Rabe; [2023]
   Keywords : Complex system; Scientific software; Experienced; Novice; Bioreactor; Usability;

   Abstract : The usability of complex scientific software is often lacking as it tends to not receive a high priority in development, in addition to the fact that developers are usually engineers with a low level of knowledge in usability areas. The study examines such a software in an environment with a significant difference in terms of user skill, which creates some issues in terms of improving usability. READ MORE
