Presentation of the life and research of natural scientist and antiquarian Emil Eckhoff.

When Bro Hof Slott Golf Club – a high-end, highprofile golf development in Upplands-Bro, northwest of Stockholm – opened, the Brogård manor house became its clubhouse. Here a recent history of Bro Hof Slott as leisure space intermingles with a much longer history of Brogård as a landscape shaped through 400 years of nobility ownership. In place-marketing and in short accounts, the estate's history

Clinical trials using cells derived from embryonic ventral mesencephalon have shown that transplanted dopaminergic neurons can survive and function in the long term, as demonstrated by in vivo brain imaging using 18F-fluorodopa and 11C-raclopride positron emission tomography. Here we report the postmortem analysis of a patient with Parkinson’s disease who 24 y earlier underwent unilateral transpla

This corpus study addresses the question of the nature and the structure of antonymy and synonymy in language use, following automatic methods to identify their behavioral patterns in texts. We examine the conceptual closeness/distance of synonyms and antonyms through the lens of their DOMAIN instantiations.

Stance in human communication is a linguistic concept relating to expressions of subjectivity such as the speakers' attitudes and emotions. Taking stance is crucial for the social construction of meaning and can be useful for many application fields such as business intelligence, security analytics, or social media monitoring. In order to process large amounts of text data for stance analyses, lin

Femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) represents a heterogeneous group of disorders that affect a diverse patient population. The natural history of the disease, the role of nonsurgical management, the indications for surgery, optimal surgical techniques, and the predictors of treatment outcomes need to be further defined. To date, clinical research reports have included primarily surgical case serieFemoroacetabular impingement (FAI) represents a heterogeneous group of disorders that affect a diverse patient population.

This paper investigates the institutional settings for Iran’s first public housing program called Mehr Housing Project, designed to provide housing for lowest 10% of the population. While the project was initiated to improve the housing options for the low-income families, the outcomes after 8 years beg to differ. The figures indicate that out of promised 1,400,000 units, only around 500,000 were

The article aims to understand the forms and processes of socio-ecological changes following sociogeographicaldislocation of workers in a working-class neighborhood (Peykan-Shahr) in Iran. The articleintegrates theories of gentrification and metabolic rift. Existing studies on urbanization in Iran refute thepossibility of gentrification. This study, in contrast, by drawing attention to peculiariti

This research investigates the effects of styrene-butadiene-styrene (SBS) copolymer and other plastomers on the behavior of Saudi bitumen. Three bitumen samples, extracted from three Saudi oil refineries, namely Ras Tanura, Riyadh, and Yanbu, were used in this study. The bitumen samples were mixed with different modifiers in various compositions, forming polymer modified bitumens (PMBs). Elasticit

Different designs of the SX-700 plane grating monochromator have been investigated for the undulator beamline (51) by using analytical considerations and carrying out ray tracing calculations. The most important modifications of the original design are those where the ellipsoidal focusing mirror has been replaced by a plane elliptical or by a spherical mirror. A significant advantage of the spheri

The electronic structure of Ca in the high-temperature superconductor Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8 has been studied by x-ray-absorption spectroscopy and resonant-photoemission at the Ca L2,3 absorption edge. In the x-ray-absorption spectrum no edge structure is seen at the energy corresponding to the Ca 2p3/2 core-level binding energy, in agreement with the very low Ca density of states at the Fermi level predic
