1. 1. 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.

3. 2. A computational model of metapopulation dynamics and organism-mediated nutrient flow

   University essay from Göteborgs universitet / Institutionen för biologi och miljövetenskap

   Author : Amanda Hansson; [2023-08-07]
   Keywords : computational model; population dynamics; metapopulation dynamics; nutrient flow; simulation; spatially explicit; individual-based;

   Abstract : The aim of this project was to assess, using in-silico experiments, how different life history char-acteristics, such as age at maturity and dispersal ability of individuals, influence the dynamics of a metapopulation. To achieve this, a novel model of a spatially explicit metapopulation, with organ-ism-mediated nutrient flow between fragmented habitat patches, was implemented by means of computer simulations.

4. 3. TECHNOLOGY ENHANCED SELF-DIRECTED LEARNING IN THE WORKPLACE:

   University essay from Göteborgs universitet/Institutionen för pedagogik, kommunikation och lärande

   Author : Abdulroqib Ysuf; [2023-07-03]
   Keywords : Workplace; ; Self-directed learning; ; Technology; ; learning.;

   Abstract : Purpose: The overall purpose of this study is to investigate the perceived effectiveness of technology-enhanced self-directed learning (TESDL) in the workplace context, with a specific focus on the IT industry (company X in Nigeria). The study aims to assess the perception of employees on the motivating factors, barriers, environment, and technological tools utilized for TESDL. READ MORE

5. 4. The effect of knowledge on farmers’ intercropping adoption decisions : the perspective of Swedish farmers

   University essay from SLU/Dept. of Economics

   Author : Frida Svensson; [2023]
   Keywords : Adoption; adoption intensity; double-hurdle model; knowledge; intercropping;

   Abstract : Intercropping is sustainable from both an economic and environmental point of view since it can increase yields, decrease input costs, make efficient use of available growth resources, increase crop biodiversity and natural biodiversity, suppress pests and diseases, and reduce land degradation. This makes the uptake of the practice important for future sustainable agricultural. READ MORE

6. 5. Hide or Embrace Drawbacks? - A Quantitative Study of the Impact of Two-Sided Messaging in the Online Secondary Marketplace Setting

   University essay from Handelshögskolan i Stockholm/Institutionen för marknadsföring och strategi

   Author : Sofie Bixo; Tyra Löthman; [2023]
   Keywords : Purchase intention; Facebook Marketplace; Second-hand buying; Theory of Planned Behaviour; Two-sided messaging;

   Abstract : In recent years, online secondary marketplace platforms have experienced rapid growth as both sustainability concerns and the demand for second-hand products have increased substantially. Despite this considerable growth, second-hand marketplaces have remained relatively understudied. READ MORE
