Transition metal complexes (TMCs) with charge transfer states play a crucial role in photophysical and photochemical processes, particularly in energy conversion applications. This thesis investigates the photophysics and photochemistry of the d⁵ ruthenium complex ([Ru(III)(phtmeimb)2]+), focusing on its excited-state dynamics and charge transfer properties. The photophysical study involves steady

Superlattices of quantum-confined perovskite nanocrystals (5–6 nm) present an interesting example of colloidal crystals because of the interplay between nanoscopic parameters (nanocrystal sizes, shapes, and colloidal softness) and the microscopic shapes of their assemblies. These superlattices are reported as rectangular or rhombic, with little discussion of the outcomes of self-assembly experimen

Sedan 1700-talet har 87 procent av världens våtmarker försvunnit, med en acceleration under de senaste 50 åren där mer än en tredjedel av världens våtmarker försvunnit på grund av exploatering. Våtmarker bidrar med många viktiga funktioner, såsom klimateglering genom att minska översvämningar och torka samt genom att agera som naturliga reningsverk. I takt med klimatförändringarna har våtmarkers fWetlands play a vital role globally in protecting biodiversity, purifying water, and mitigating floods. In Kigali, Rwanda’s capital, five natural wetlands are located in the city center. This master’s thesis aimed to evaluate the water quality of these wetlands and identify key pollution sources. The aim was also to analyse changes in water quality over time with respect to changes in demographics

In order to get an answer to the question of where a Viking-era harbor could possibly be placed in Löddeköpinge, indicators such as Lödde kar, Lödde å, the seasonal market place at Vikhögsvägen in Löddeköpinge, the permanent settlement in Löddeköpinge, the church village in Löddeköpinge, the burial field and the church in Löddeköpinge and Borgeby's trelleborg need to be studied in relation to

In this paper, we propose a Gaussian process-based nonlinear, time-varying drift model for stochastic differential equations. In particular, we combine eigenfunction expansion of the Gaussian process’ covariance kernel in the spatial input variables with spectral decomposition in the time domain to obtain a reduced rank state space representation of the drift model, which avoids the growing comple

BACKGROUND: The advent of PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors has revolutionized lung cancer treatment, necessitating accurate PD-L1 immunohistochemical (IHC) assessment. While standardized for formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) histological samples, PD-L1 testing on cytology remains challenging. This review aims to address the complexities of PD-L1 IHC in cytology, focusing on validation guidelines, quali

OBJECTIVE: To investigate associations between meniscal tear, bone marrow lesions (BMLs), and post-injury knee loading, with cartilage T2 relaxation times on knee magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in the subacute phase following acute anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury.DESIGN: We studied both knees of 128 patients with ACL injury. The presence of meniscal tears and BMLs were determined on suba

OBJECTIVES: To evaluate whether suicidality was documented prior to suicide in patients in contact with specialised somatic healthcare providers for physical conditions and to identify factors related to such documentation.DESIGN AND SETTINGS: Retrospective cohort study in which medical records from specialised somatic (non-psychiatric) healthcare services (internal medicine, infectious disease, s

OBJECTIVE: Cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) can accurately assess erosive disease in the hands, wrists and feet in established rheumatoid arthritis (RA). The aim of this study was to compare CBCT with conventional radiography (CR) for the assessment of erosions in patients with early RA.METHODS: CBCT and CR of the hands, wrists and feet of 17 patients with treatment naive early RA were assesse

Reliable maritime communication systems are essential for both safety-critical operations and emerging applications such as autonomous shipping, remote pilotage, and drone-assisted search and rescue. These scenarios demand ultra-reliable, low-latency wireless connectivity, where communication outages are unacceptable. Equally important is the need for dependable positioning systems. In situations

Direct injection (DI) hydrogen internal combustion engines are gaining attention as a promising technology for a sustainable energy transition, particularly in the transport sector. A key factor in improving the performance of these engines is understanding how hydrogen jets behave within the combustion chamber, especially their interactions with the chamber walls. These jet-wall interactions are

The article introduces the topic of reflective practice for a fire engineering audience. It first presents an overview of selected theory for reflection before connecting how they relate to engineering practices. In the second half, the author shares an example of a recent encounter in a project, how it relates to an older experience, and how he reflects upon it. Lastly, a personal view towards hi

This article explores the various manifestations of analogue video in digital culture. Introducing the framing concept of an aesthetics of remanence, it argues that the "society of the spectacle" (Debord) has entered an age of retrospectacle, a dominant signifier of which is the remediation and/or simulation of analogue videography. The concept of remanence connects the material conditions of magn

In this article, populism is approached as a political alternative that has to be taken seriously. This implies going beyond socio-economic or cultural explanations for populism’s growing popularity. The aim is to understand the reasoning in populist thought, the populist idea. Starting from a simple definition of populism, I then relate to populism as a ‘thin ideology’ or as a ‘political style’.
