The Legacy of the 1915 Genocide in the Ottoman Empire
The introductory and closing speeches during a conference dedicated to the legacy of the 1915 Genocide, its denial by the Turkish State.
Few-cycle high-repetition rate OPCPA for multiphoton PEEM towards atto-PEEM
We present a few-cycle high-repetition rate optical parametric amplifier for multiphoton PEEM experiments on semiconductor nanowires. This parametric amplifier is also used for the generation of high-order harmonics at 200kHz for future atto-PEEM experiments.
Extensive reworking of Archaean crust within the Birimian terrane in Ghana as revealed by combined zircon U-Pb and Lu-Hf isotopes
Located in the southeastern parts of the Baoulé Mossi domain of the West African Craton, the Birimian terrane in Ghana is known to consist of predominantly juvenile crust emplaced during the Eburnean orogeny. Here we present novel coupled zircon U-Pb and Lu-Hf isotope data from nine Birimian granitoids intruding different domains from northwestern, western and southeastern Ghana. Sub-chondritic e(

Memory and Identity Building : A Comparative Study of Post-WWI Turkey and Post-WWII Germany
Technical evaluation of a tank-connected food waste disposer system for biogas production and nutrient recovery
In this study, a tank-connected food waste disposer system with the objective to optimise biogas production and nutrient recovery from food waste in Malmö was evaluated. The project investigated the source-separation ratio of food waste through waste composition analyses, determined the potential biogas production in ground food waste, analysed the organic matter content and the limiting component

Improving penetration depth in biological imaging using Nd3+/Yb3+/Er3+-doped upconverting nanoparticles
We have synthesized and evaluated in tissue phantom measurements a new type of Nd-codoped upconverting nanoparticles. They provide improved signal strengths from deep regions in a tissue phantom as compared to conventional upconverting nanoparticles, a result also suggesting they will provide less issues with heating the tissue during measurements.
Joint business model innovation for sustainable transformation of industries - A large multinational utility in alliance with a small solar energy company
Whereas existing business models for sustainability research have mainly focused on business model activities and sustainability outcomes for separate firms, we observe that alliances between small and large firms can influence a large firm's learning and dissemination of sustainable technologies, thereby contributing to the sustainable transformation of mass markets. According to the theoretical
Fluorescence detection and assessment on tryptophan content of naked oat varieties in China
The experiment aims to assess the tryptophan content of main cultivars of naked oat in China, and analyze the correlation between contents of tryptophan and protein. Oat flour was hydrolysed with papain, the fluorescence intensity of hydrolysate was detected at excitation wavelength of 288 nm and emission wavelength of 352 nm, and finally the tryptophan content was quantitated according to standar
Towards New Generation of Hemoglobin-Based Blood Substitutes
Blood transfusion is a clinically significant and crucial process, which saves millions of lives every year. However,shortage of donated blood and the risk of virus transmission through transfusible blood seriously affect theavailability of the blood. Hemoglobin (Hb), owing to its oxygen carrying capacity, has been studied as a startingmaterial for the development of artificial blood substitutes/H
Exploring Yeast as a Cell Factory for the Production of Carboxylic Acids and Derivatives
Baker’s yeast, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, is a promising cell factory for the sustainable utilization of renewable resources for the formation of products with commercial value. Among these, poly-3-D-hydroxybutyrate (PHB) is an extensively studied biopolymer naturally accumulated in some bacteria and archaea species through the formation of carbon granules. Its bio-based origin, biodegradability an
Comparing time-resolved and continuous-wave near-infrared spectroscopy for determining oxygen saturation in human skeletal muscle tissue
The main purpose of this study was to compare two non-invasive optical spectroscopic techniques for assessing peripheral oxygenation saturation in healthy volunteers under specific provocations. The results suggest that the time-resolved technique provides more accurate and robust results.
A Service Oriented Perspective of Enterprise Resource Planning Systems
This paper brings forward a service oriented perspective, based on practical experiences from designing information systems (IS) as services. Viewing IS as services are beneficial but still an unexplored approach in organizations. In this paper, we present an analysis of Enterprise Resource Planning (ERPs) systems through the perspective of Service Oriented Architecture (SOA). This paper contribut
Non-invasive monitoring of oxygen in the lungs of newborn infants using diode laser spectroscopy
The main purpose of this study was to investigate a novel non-invasive optical technique for rapid bedside detection of oxygen gas in the lungs of full-term newborn infants. The results suggest that the technique will be clinically useful as a diagnostic and monitoring tool for infants with lung disorders.
Macroscopic Optimization of High Harmonic Generation for High Power Laser Pulses
We study upscaling of gas high harmonic generation, to make efficient use of the ever increasing laser pulse powers. Loose focusing geometries optimizing phasematching are investigated and compared in HHG efficiency to shorter focusing arrangements.
Scaling Nonlinear Optics in Gases
Extrapolating nonlinear phenomena, such as filamentation, to new parameters as e.g. to higher pulse energy is often challenging. We here present a general scaling model for nonlinear light-matter interactions in gases and proof it experimentally.
Heat Loss for a Run-Around Hybrid Ventilation System with Heat Recovery
The heat recovery system for ventilation is of major importance when low energy buildings are built. One alternative to the mechanical ventilation systems with heat recovery is to use a brine based run-around system that allows for heat recovery in for instance hybrid ventilated buildings. This type of heat recovery system has the potential to lower the need for electricity for the fans.

Exposure to inorganic arsenic and gene expression in peripheral blood
Arsenic is an established carcinogen and a risk factor for several non-malignant diseases. Mechanisms of arsenic toxicity may include interference with gene expression. The impact of arsenic exposure on gene expression was evaluated in women (n = 80) living in the Puna of the northern Argentinian Andes with varying concentrations (10–1251 μg/L) of arsenic in drinking water.
