Double pion photoproduction on the nucleon: study of the isospin channels
1995
A model for the gamma p ----> pion+ pion- p reaction developed earlier is extended to account for all isospin channels. The model includes N, Delta(1232), N^*(1440) and N^*(1520) as intermediate baryonic states and the rho-meson as an intermediate two pion resonance. Although many terms contribute to the cross section, some channels exhibit particular sensitivity to certain mechanisms of resonance excitation or decay and the reactions provide novel information on such mechanisms. In particular the gamma N ----> N^*(1520) ----> Delta(1232) pion process affects all the channels and is a key ingredient in the interpretation of the data. Comparison is made with all available data and t…

Swift follow-up of IceCube triggers, and implications for the Advanced-LIGO era
2015
Between 2011 March and 2014 August Swift responded to 20 triggers from the IceCube neutrino observatory, observing the IceCube 50% confidence error circle in X-rays, typically within 5 hours of the trigger. No confirmed counterpart has been detected. We describe the Swift follow up strategy and data analysis and present the results of the campaign. We discuss the challenges of distinguishing the X-ray counterpart to a neutrino trigger from serendipitous uncatalogued X-ray sources in the error circle, and consider the implications of our results for future strategies for multi-messenger astronomy, with particular reference to the follow up of gravitational wave triggers from the advanced-era…
Erfaringer ved mindfulness som helsefremmende metode : en kvalitativ studie om kursdeltakeres erfaringer etter mindfulness retreat i Kenya
2016
Masteroppgave klinisk helsevitenskap ME520 - Universitetet i Agder 2016 Background The reason for the study was to look into mindfulness as health promotion method through Norwegian participants' experiences after mindfulness retreat in Kenya. Purpose and problem The purpose of this study is to examine the experiences participants are left with after mindfulness training in a salutogenic perspective. The problem I am asking is; "What experiences have Norwegian participants after mindfulness retreat in Kenya –light of health promotion and quality of life?" Method: design, selection and analysis I have used qualitative research methods. Data were collected in the form of participant observati…

SIGNAL ANALYSIS AND PERFORMANCE EVALUATION OF A VEHICLE CRASH TEST WITH A FIXED SAFETY BARRIER BASED ON HAAR WAVELETS
2011
Author's version of an article published in the journal: International Journal of Wavelets, Multiresolution and Information Processing. Also available from the publisher at: http://dx.doi.org/10.1142/s0219691311003979 This paper deals with the wavelet-based performance analysis of the safety barrier for use in a full-scale test. The test involves a vehicle, a Ford Fiesta, which strikes the safety barrier at a prescribed angle and speed. The vehicle speed before the collision was measured. Vehicle accelerations in three directions at the center of gravity were measured during the collision. The yaw rate was measured with a gyro meter. Using normal speed and high-speed video cameras, the beha…
The otherness of social work under neoliberal governance
2013
This special issue examines the topic of ‘understanding the Other’ from a very different perspective of ‘Otherness’, which advocates that the own Otherness of social work be reflected on as well. In the contexts of many current societies, social work itself increasingly appears as a strange element – an exceptional idea – as ‘the Other’. Moreover, a question raises over whether social work itself is understandable to those who are outside of it. In this paper, social work is distinguished at three institutional levels: as a science, as a profession and as an ideology or social movement. The paper aims at analysing how social work itself is put into the position of ‘the Other’ in the current…

Attēlu numuri / Bildnummern: 930a-013-1, 930a-013-2, 930a-013-3 Hennings, der dänische Amtmann in Plön und Bekannte des dänischen Ministers Schimmelmann, schreibt in seiner Funktion als Herausgeber der Zeitschrift „Genius der Zeit“ an Merkel. Er kündigt an, einen Aufsatz zu drucken, in dem Merkel Partei für seinen Schriftstellerkollegen Johann(es) Falk ergreift, worum ihn dieser in einem anderen Brief gebeten hat (vgl. Ms. 930a-012). Merkels Aufsatz soll in der Februarausgabe 1799 erscheinen. Der Aufsatz sowie der hier üb…
Repeated Load Triaxial Testing of Recycled Excavation Materials Blended with Recycled Phyllite Materials
2022
Recycled Excavation Materials (REM) are becoming viable alternative construction resources due to their economic benefits. However, REM may be composed of weak rocks, e.g., phyllites, limiting the use in a base layer. The present paper attempts to further the knowledge of the mechanical performance of REM by performing Repeated Load Triaxial Tests (RLTT). REM are mixed with Recycled Phyllite Materials (RPM) in systematic blends of 0%, 25%, 50%, and 100%. The batches’ resilient modulus (MR) and permanent deformation (PD) characteristics were assessed to establish the maximum RPM allowed into REM while maintaining the required performance. Hicks and Monismith’s and Uzan’s mo…
