The Red Sea crisis and the recent attacks on commercial ships have drawn significant attention worldwide, underscoring the need to understand how such geopolitical conflicts can disrupt global supply chains and economic stability. This paper thoroughly examines the complex impacts of the crisis on India's electronics and photonics sector, recognizing the sector's crucial importance as a fundamenta

This thesis describes the work done on two open access microcavities that aims at detecting single rare-earth ions for quantum information applications. The initial microcavity faced mechanical instability due to its geometry, which limited robust design possibilities due to the 25 mm diameter space of the helium bath cryostat. A Purcell enhancement of 2.2 was realized for nanoparticles at 2.1 K,

This article examines the role of Swedish municipalities and municipally-owned energy utilities (MEUs) in advancing energy democracy through local renewable energy projects. Energy democracy emphasizes citizen participation and local control in energy governance. However, traditional representative democracy and municipal involvement remain central in Sweden, where trust in institutions and high t

Serial dependence (SD) is said to occur when the judgment of a current stimulus is drawn toward a no longer relevant stimulus from the recent past. Working memory (WM) contributes to the ability to discriminate between irrelevant and relevant sensory impressions. How WM contributes to SD in facial identity remains to be fully understood. In the present study, we used a WM task with varying load in

Mångfalden av våtmarker, vattendrag, sjöar och grundvatten samverkar i ett större perspektiv inom ett avrinningsområde. Funktioner som är sammankopplade och beroende av varandra. En holistisk förståelse av våtmarker utgår från att vi tar hänsyn till alla delar. En funktion forskarna i denna rapport benämner hydrodiversitet. Forskarna har undersökt hur stor nyttan är ur ett hydrologiskt och ekonomiThis report presents our research project EcoDiver, funded by the Swedish Environmental Protection Agency. The project was conducted as a collaboration between Lund University and the Royal Institute of Technology (KTH).The main thesis has been hydrodiversity, where the diversity of hydrological units, such as wetlands, lakes, rivers and groundwater, within a catchment area interact and affect the

The rapid growth of urban areas and concerns over climate change make it vital to improve the energy sustainability of cities. Understanding the complex interactions within different sectors (sectoral) and localities (spatial) of cities plays a crucial role in improving efficiency and sustainability, which is extremely challenging due to the complex urban morphology. State-of-the-art energy concep

Visual attention span (VAS) refers to the number of visual elements processed simultaneously in a multielement array. It is causally related to reading skills and may be impaired in readers with dyslexia. VAS is influenced by orthographic depth with opaque orthographies boosting it. Such orthography-specific VAS modulations are subject to crosslinguistic interactions in early biliterates, leading

AimsOrthostatic hypotension (OH) is an important differential diagnosis in unexplained syncope. Neurogenic OH (nOH) has been postulated to differ from non-neurogenic OH (non-nOH), yet pathophysiological differences are largely unexplored. We aimed to investigate aetiology and tilt table test (TTT)-induced haemodynamic responses in symptomatic OH patients.Methods and resultsWe performed a retrospec
