2006 har inneburit att ominriktningen enligt försvarsbeslutet 2004 fort- satt i Försvarsmakten. Att reformera Försvarsmakten tar tid, men årets operativa insats- verksamhet visar tydligt att Försvarsmakten är på rätt väg mot målet – ett insatt insats- försvar. Under 2006 har svenska förband gjort insatser i Afghanistan, Liberia, Demokratiska republiken Kongo, Libanon och på Balkan. Sverige övertog i mars ansvaret för återupp- byggnadsenheten i Mazar-e-Sharif (PRT MeS) i norra Afghanistan. Under året har det svenska förbandet i Afghanistan framgångsrikt

  • The Integration of Swedish and Dutch Forces in EU Naval Force Operation Atalanta, 2015
    In 2015, the Netherlands and Sweden provided a joint contri- bution to the EU’s counter-piracy military mission EUNAVFOR Operation Atalanta. During their three-month deployment to the area of operation, Swedish troops and enablers – including two Combat Boat 90 assault craft and two AW109 helicopters – were stationed on board the Dutch warship HNLMS Johan de Witt, which also hosted the Force Headquarters (FHQ) led by a Swedish Admiral. This kind of cooperation, in particular having a tactical headquarters led by one nation and the fl agship led by another, was quite unique. In general, the integration was considered to have been suc- cessful – to some extent surprisingly so. This report describes and analyses the planning and execution of the fusion of Dutch and Swedish forces, identifying key lessons that may be of value in similar future collaborations. National regulations and procedures, command and control structures, preparatory training and exercises, the chosen level of integration and per- sonal mindsets are among the issues discussed.

Leading explanation is flow of (salty) liquid water, but source is unknown, and no direct detection of water.

  • Interaction on the Edge : Proceedings from the 5Th GRASP
    Johan Näslund & Stefan Jern (Editors) Since May 1998 Scandinavian group researchers and social psychologists have met bi-annually for what has to be called the GRASP conference. GRASP originally stood Interaction on the Edge for ”Group as Paradox”. The first four conferences were held in Linköping, Lund, Stockholm and Skövde respectively. Proceedings from the 5th GRASP conference, Linköping University, May 2006 The fifth conference was organized at Linköping University May 11-12, 2006 under the auspices of the FOG FORUM group. Generous assistance was given by the De- partment of Behavioural Sciences and the Swedish Research Council (Vetenskaps- rådet). This year’s theme was ”Interaction on the Edge” and a special emphasis was put on inter group processes. Sixty researchers from Sweden and Denmark took part INTERACTION ON THE EDGE and listened to thirty presentations. Twelve of these have been accepted for this proceeding volume.

  • Buscando a Vida Fora Da Terra: Marte
    AGA 0316 Buscando a vida fora da Terra: Marte Why Mars is important for Astrobiology? • Relative proximity – first planet where we can realistically test in loco for biological potential and life • Mars is in many ways similar to Earth. Rocky, terrestrial planet in the inner part of the Solar system with an atmosphere. Yet it is also very different. • Therefore if life is found there it would be a very strong argument in favor of life being an ubiquitous phenomenum in the galaxy History of Martian “Civilization” • In 1784 William Herschel (famous for the discovery of Uranus) claimed that Mars has an atmosphere and is therefore probably inhabited. • Giovanni Schiaparelli claimed to see a network of 79 linear channels (canali) in 1877 • Percival Lowell opened Lowell Observatory in Flagstaff, Arizona in 1894. (claimed to see 200 canals) • Lowell suggested that canals were built by an ancient martian civilization. Giovanni Schiaparelli William Herschel Percival Lowell • In 1965 “Mariner 4” spacecraft send a few dozen good pictures of the Martian surface – no evidence for intelligent life. Mars is in fact a cold and dry planet! 6 7 9 1960’s 1970’s 1990’s 2000’s Pathfinder & Sojourner Spirit + Opportunity Mars Fact Sheet Parameter Value Units Diameter 6787 km Average Distance From the Sun 1.524 AU EARTH’S Atm Average Temperature 210 K (-81 F) CO2 0.04% 3 Mean Density 3.94 g/cm N2 78,1% Rotational Period 24.6229 hours Ar 0.93% Mean Atmospheric Pressure 0.007 bars H2O 0 – 4 % Surface Gravity 3.63 m/s2 Tilt of Axis 25.2 degrees Orbit period 687 days Atmospheric Components Element Symbol Percentage Carbon Dioxide CO2 95.32 Nitrogen N2 2.7 Argon Ar 1.6 Water H2O 0.03 Earth-Mars Similarities • Position in the Solar system – Martian orbit is 1.5 A.U.; Earth’s is 1 A.U.
