Mold Odor from Wood Treated with Chlorophenols despite Mold Growth That Can Only Be Seen Using a Microscope

We previously reported that indoor odorous chloroanisoles (CAs) are still being emitted due to microbial methylation of hazardous chlorophenols (CPs) present in legacy wood preservatives. Meanwhile, Swedish researchers reported that this malodor, described since the early 1970s, is caused by hazardous mold. Here, we examined to what extent CP-treated wood contains mold and if mold correlates with

Time-resolved measurement and simulation of a longitudinal single-bunch instability at the MAX IV 3 GeV ring

The study and understanding of collective effects plays a vital role for fourth-generation light sources. These effects mostly need to be mitigated and controlled to achieve the design operational parameters. However, they can also be utilized to gain insights into the properties of the machine. While the 3 GeV storage ring at the MAX IV light source is running in multi-bunch mode during user oper

Simulation studies on longitudinal beam dynamics manipulated by corrugated structures under different bunch length conditions at KARA

In the KIT storage ring KARA (Karlsruhe Research Accelerator), two parallel plates with periodic rectangular corrugations are planned to be installed. These plates will be used for impedance manipulation to study and eventually control the electron beam dynamics and the emitted coherent synchrotron radiation (CSR). In this contribution, we present simulation results showing the influence of differ

On the road to somewhere : brain potentials reflect language effects on motion event perception

Recent studies have identified neural correlates of language effects on perception in static domains of experience such as colour and objects. The generalization of such effects to dynamic domains like motion events remains elusive. Here, we focus on grammatical differences between languages relevant for the description of motion events and their impact on visual scene perception. Two groups of na

Beam Dynamics of the Transparent Injection for the MAX IV 1.5 GeV Ring

Following the successful operation of the Multipole Injection Kicker (MIK) in the MAX IV 3 GeV storage ring, we plan to introduce a similar device in the MAX IV 1.5 GeV ring. In order to assess the effectiveness of such device and to define its working parameters, we performed a series of studies aimed at understanding the beam dynamics related to the injection process. In this paper we describe t

Bringing on the Social : Infrastructuring Libraries Through Zine-making Workshops

Public libraries serve as social infrastructures that foster interpersonal connections and promote well-being and cohesion. In order to explore the role played by libraries in the process of social infrastructuring, we conducted a zine-making workshop with librarians. This workshop facilitated collegial conversations and provided an opportunity for participants to familiarize themselves with the cPublic libraries serve as social infrastructures that foster interpersonal connections and promote well-being and cohesion.

Improved Emittance and Brightness for the MAX IV 3 GeV Storage Ring

At MAX IV Laboratory, the Swedish Synchrotron Radiation (SR) facility, the largest of two rings operates at 3 GeV with a bare lattice emittance of 330 pm rad. Upgrade plans are under consideration aiming at a gradual reduction of the emittance, in three stages: a short-term with an emittance reduction of 20% to 40%, a mid-term with an emittance reduction of more than 50% and a long-term with an em

Impact of Underweight, Overweight, and Obesity on Health-Related Quality of Life in Children with Tetralogy of Fallot Variants

Traditional cardiovascular risk factors put patients with congenital heart disease (CHD) at increased risk for cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. The aim of this study was to evaluate whether body mass index (BMI) is associated with health-related quality of life (HRQoL) in patients with variants of Tetralogy of Fallot (TOF). Patients and parents of children with variants of TOF–CHD were aske

Blood group O is associated with ARDS development but exhibits lower mortality in the intensive care unit–A retrospective multicentre study

Background: Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is a common cause of respiratory failure in the intensive care unit (ICU). Previous studies have suggested that blood group A increases the risk of developing ARDS following sepsis and major trauma. This study investigated the association between ABO and Rh blood groups and ARDS development and mortality in ARDS. Methods: Patients admitted to

Artificial intelligence and its ‘slow violence’ to human rights

Human rights concerns in relation to the impacts brought forth by artificial intelligence (‘AI’) have revolved around examining how it affects specific rights, such as the right to privacy, non-discrimination and freedom of expression. However, this article argues that the effects go deeper, potentially challenging the foundational assumptions of key concepts and normative justifications of the hu

Workflows for the analysis of transcriptomic data at single-cell and spatial resolutions: T cells in lymphoma

Hur man analyserar data från encells- och spatial transkriptomik – Och vad man kan upptäcka med dess hjälp Senaste tidens tekniska utveckling har gjort det möjligt att kartlägga enskilda cellers hela transkriptom – ett mått på vilka gener som uttrycks, dvs. är aktiva. Dessutom kan avancerad bildupptagning hjälpa till med att välja ut specifika områden i vävnadsprover, där man närmare undersöker gThere is a need to closer characterise the molecular changes associated with progression from low to high mortality stage cutaneous T cell lymphoma. This has been challenging since there is high inter-patient heterogeneity in the genetics and transcriptomics of the malignant T cell populations. Modern technology has enabled single-cell resolution as well as spatially guided cell selection for whol

Fuel for revolt – moral arguments as delegitimation practices in Swedish fuel protests

This article examines the role of moral arguments in the delegitimation of transition policies. Previous research has highlighted attitudes and arguments that explain resistance against transition policies, including perceptions of unfairness; inefficiency and effectiveness; lack of trust; and ideology. This article provides further understanding of resistance to climate policies by zooming in on

Two languages, two minds : flexible cognitive processing driven by language of operation

People make sense of objects and events around them by classifying them into identifiable categories. The extent to which language affects this process has been the focus of a long-standing debate: Do different languages cause their speakers to behave differently? Here, we show that fluent German-English bilinguals categorize motion events according to the grammatical constraints of the language i

”Samverkan är ju hela tiden, överallt” : – samverkan som gränsobjekt i akademin

Hur och i vilken omfattning högre lärosäten (universitet och högskolor) i Sverige samverkar med samhället har debatterats i media såväl som i forskningen. Denna artikel belyser den formaliseringsprocess som skett i kölvattnet av nya regleringar och politiska krav på samverkan. I studien analyseras officiella dokument och intervjuer med universitetsanställda vid två svenska lärosäten. Analysen fokuHow and to what extent higher education institutions in Sweden are collaborating with society has been debated in public media and in research. This article highlights the formalisation of the Swedish collaboration policy following a reinforced regulation and political pressures. In the study, official university documents and interviews with university employees at two Swedish universities are an
