16. Population Oscillations in Excited Argon Atoms Initiated by Attosecond Pulses
Kandidat-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Atomfysik; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionenSammanfattning : This project aims to study the process of electron excitation by a light pulse, a process at the core of many important contemporary and possible future devices. Data from an experiment where the electron dynamics is probed with attosecond laser pulses are analyzed in order to gain insight on the rapid population oscillations within the excited atomic system and simulations are constructed with the goal of mimicking structures found in the experimental data.

17. In Search of the Ghost of Tom Joad – A study of the “local food” movement and its relation to the legal frameworks of the current food system
Uppsats för yrkesexamina på avancerad nivå, Lunds universitet/Juridiska institutionenSammanfattning : The industrial food production system have given rise to tens of thousands of local, national and international social movements concerned with food and agriculture, reacting to the perceived social and environmental failures of the industrial food system. One of the directions inside these movements is the internationally based “local food” movement. LÄS MER
18. Improved seismic-resistant design of adobe houses in vulnerable areas in Peru : Raising seismic awareness in an Andean community
Uppsats för yrkesexamina på grundnivå, Uppsala universitet/ByggteknikSammanfattning : During the last decades, many seismic reinforcement techniques of adobe houses have been developed. None of the techniques has however reached out to the people in need, mainly due to high costs. To prevent unacceptable seismic risks in rural areas, it is necessary to develop technology transfers along with training and educational programs. LÄS MER
19. The Effects of Conditional Cash Transfers on Work Incentives of the Mexican Rural Population: Does Oportunidades Create Income Dependency?
Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Ekonomisk-historiska institutionenSammanfattning : The Conditional Cash Transfer (CCT) program “Oportunidades” has proven to be effective in improving access to education and health services for the poor in Mexico; however, the studies of the program’s impact on the work incentives of its rural indigenous participants are practically inexistent. For this reason, by applying a propensity score matching methodology, this research analyses the impact of Oportunidades on the labor supply of the indigenous and non-indigenous living in rural areas.

20. Equality of Opportunity in Argentina - A Case Study of the Conditional Cash Transfer Program "Universal Allocation per Child"
Magister-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Nationalekonomiska institutionenSammanfattning : This study is an evaluation of the Conditional Cash Transfer (CCT) program Universal Allocation per Child (AUH) in Argentina as a policy to reduce inequality of opportunity among children. Creating a Human Development Index (HOI), as developed by Paes de Barros et al. LÄS MER
