Masculinity studies – sometimes called men’s studies, or studies on men and masculinities – is an interdisciplinary field of studies that critically examines the social, cultural, and historical constructions of masculinities. Scholars in this field often seek to deconstruct traditional notions of masculinity and explore how they intersect with issues of power, identity, and social norms. The fiel
X-ray multi-projection imaging (XMPI) has the potential to provide rotation-free 3D movies of optically opaque samples. The absence of rotation enables superior imaging speed and preserves fragile sample dynamics by avoiding the centrifugal forces introduced by conventional rotary tomography. Here, we present our XMPI observations at the ID19 beamline (ESRF, France) of 3D dynamics in melted alumin
Here, we present new models to fit small angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) data for the characterization of ion tracks in polymers. Ion tracks in polyethylene terephthalate (PET), polycarbonate (PC), polyimide (PI) and polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) were created by swift heavy ion irradiation using 197Au and 238U with energies between 185 MeV and 2.0 GeV. Transmission SAXS measurements were performed
Ti3C2Tx MXene (or "MXene" for simplicity) has gained noteworthy attention for its metal-like electrical conductivity and high electrochemical capacitance-a unique blend of properties attractive toward a wide range of applications such as energy storage, healthcare monitoring, and electromagnetic interference shielding. However, processing MXene architectures using conventional methods often deals
X-ray time-resolved tomography is one of the most popular X-raytechniques to probe dynamics in three dimensions (3D). Recent developments in time-resolved tomography opened the possibility of recordingkilohertz-rate 3D movies. However, tomography requires rotating thesample with respect to the X-ray beam, which prevents characterization of faster structural dynamics. Here, we present megahertz (MH
The newly emerged pathogen, Candida auris, presents a serious threat to public health worldwide. This multidrug-resistant yeast often colonizes and persists on the skin of patients, can easily spread from person to person, and can cause life-threatening systemic infections. New antifungal therapies are therefore urgently needed to limit and control both superficial and systemic C. auris infectio
Metallic lithium (Li) is the most attractive anode for Li batteries because it holds the highest theoretical specific capacity (3860 mA h g -1) and the lowest redox potential (-3.040 V vs SHE). However, the poor interface stability of the Li anode, which is caused by the high reactivity and dendrite formation of metallic Li upon cycling, leads to undesired electrochemical performance and safety is
It's the 10th anniversary of China's Belt and Road Initiative. Politically, it has been a success, but Beijing recognizes that restructuring is needed.
Det är den minoritet av världens befolkning som är rik som främst påverkar statusen för jordens livsuppehållande system genom sin konsumtion. Det skriver två forskare i en replik.This is a response to another article that argues that population growth is the main problem. Jennifer and her co-authors write: "In the environmental debate, it is often said that the issue of population growth is taboo. We disagree. In most of the contexts in which we operate, the population issue is discussed. The reason why it is not emphasized more is that the statistics speak for themselves:
Den här studien undersöker hur Hebreiska bibeln, i Sverige ofta förstådd som ”Gamla testamentet”, debatteras, tolkas och framställs i dagstidningarna Aftonbladet, Dagens Nyheter, Expressen och Svenska Dagbladet mellan 1987 och 2017. Läraren och författaren Birgitta Onsell kräver ett förord till Gamla testamentet, författaren och dramatikern Eva Moberg föreslår att Gamla testamentet redigeras och iBy using Norman Fairclough’s version of critical discourse analysis, this study analyzes interpretations and depictions of the Hebrew Bible in debate articles in Sweden’s four largest daily newspapers between 1987 and 2017. The study is conducted from a reception critical perspective, analyzing and criticizing dominant strategies of interpretation and assumed interpretive preferences. Mediatizatio
People form part of the biosphere - the biosphere being the whole intertwined network of life on Earth. While there is convergence on the need for societal change for just sustainability and a healthy biosphere, the pathways to achieve these transformations remain relatively unclear. Through legal interpretation, conceptual and thematic analysis of academic and grey literature, we seek to answer t
This article explores and compares two similar debates in Germany and Sweden duringthe 1980s, in which feminists blamed the Hebrew Bible, or ‘Old Testament’, for being the origin ofthe patriarchy. In Germany, the psychologist and pedagogue Gerda Weiler articulated the discoursein several writings, which led to a scholarly debate on anti-Jewish tendencies within Christian femi-nist theology. In Swe
Australia is already experiencing climate change losses and damages. Australian governments and other institutional actors acknowledge vulnerability, yet they centre building resilience to climate change. Resilience is frequently used as a synonym for vulnerability reduction, but important ideological differences exist. Indeed, scholars have suggested that resilience, as a politico-ideological too
