Four superdeformed bands are reported in Sr-80, extending known superdeformation in the Sr-38 series down to N = 42. The characteristics of these bands are discussed. Residual Doppler shifts were measured and average transition quadrupole moments (Q(t)) inferred for these new bands, These Q(t) values are compared to Q(t) values obtained for previously identified superdeformed bands in Sr81-83. The

The functional consequences of phosphocreatine (PCr) depletion for mechanical properties, O2 consumption, and lactate production of the rat portal vein were investigated. After feeding rats for 8-9 weeks on a diet containing 2% beta-guanidino propionic acid (BGPA), PCr of the portal vein was reduced to 14% of control, whereas ATP was unchanged. No significant change was found in the level of spont

Purpose/Objectives: To describe experiences during radiotherapy of patients suffering from lung cancer. Design: Inductive, qualitative. Setting: A radiotherapy department in the south of Sweden. Sample: 15 patients with lung cancer undergoing their second week of radiotherapy. Methodologic Approach: Interviews were conducted in a hospital setting, transcribed, and content analyzed. Main Research V

This paper approaches the uncertainty problem from the point of view of adaptive control. The uncertainty is reduced by continuous monitoring of the response of the system to the control actions and appropriate modifications of the control law. It is shown that this approach makes it possible to deal with uncertainties that cannot be handled by high gain robust feedback control.

One attractive method for monitoring biomolecular interactions in a highly parallel fashion is the use of microarrays. Microarrays can be applied for screening proteins which makes it an attractive tool in clinical diagnostics, drug discovery studies and basic protein research; even though many methodological challenges and ones relating to the quality control of microarrays still need to be solve

The finite element method is applied to solve coupled steady-state fluid flow and heat transfer problems in insulated pipes of district heating networks. The main advantage of the finite element method involved here is the standard discretization and solution technique for both coupling of temperature-dependent physical properties in the thermo-hydraulic flow and for description of the multilayere

Electronic and structural properties of Sb-induced GaAs(100)(2x4) and (2x8) surfaces are studied by means of core-level and valence-band photoelectron spectroscopy utilizing synchrotron radiation and scanning tunneling microscopy. Combining these results and showing good consistency among them, we demonstrate that the Sb/GaAs(100)(2x4) surface is well compatible with the delta structural model, wh

An answer to the magazine's inquiry about the novel.

Anaerobic digestion would enable the energy potential of agricultural crop residues such as sugar beet tops and straw to be harnessed. Sweden is so spread out that full utilisation of this potential by centralised slurry-based technology is difficult. It appears that simple but effective high-solids reactor systems have a better chance of being economically viable on a farm-scale level (50500 kW).

Popular Abstract in Swedish Torgny Lindgren är en av våra mest framstående diktare. Han har som få kunnat förena berättarglädje, språklig skönhet, och djupsinne på ett sätt som har lockat läsare ur alla kretsar. Lindgrens berättelser är emellertid på ett gåtfullt sätt ofta både brutala och djupt allvarliga, samtidigt som de är både vackra och komiska. Ofta går också döden hand i hand med en kärlekThis thesis addresses the work of the Swedish author, Torgny Lindgren (born 1938). Its main focus lies on the all-pervading irony in his work. The use of irony is seen as a unifying trait in Lindgren’s authorship. The development of more complex ironies during the years of his authorship is seen as an effect of his authorship’s thematic development, moving from political satire to existential, eth
