Analysis of time-of-flight small-angle neutron scattering data on mesoscopic crystals such as magnetic vortex lattices

Bragg diffracted intensities and q values for crystalline structures with long repeat distances may be obtained by small-angle neutron scattering (SANS) investigations. An account is given of the methods, advantages and disadvantages of obtaining such data by the multichromatic time-of-flight method, compared with the more traditional quasi-monochromatic SANS method. This is illustrated with data

Surface characterization and analysis of textured injection moulded PC-ABS automotive interior components

Automotive interior components are produced by injection moulding due to its cost effectiveness in mass production. The surfaces of these components are textured to control the appearance and other surface functional properties such as wear and scratch resistance. Key challenges lie in replicating the features of mould tool with high aspect ratio which are influenced by the polymer and large numbe

B1 SINE-binding ZFP266 impedes mouse iPSC generation through suppression of chromatin opening mediated by reprogramming factors

Induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) reprogramming is inefficient and understanding the molecular mechanisms underlying this inefficiency holds the key to successfully control cellular identity. Here, we report 24 reprogramming roadblock genes identified by CRISPR/Cas9-mediated genome-wide knockout (KO) screening. Of these, depletion of the predicted KRAB zinc finger protein (KRAB-ZFP) Zfp266 stro

"and Yet It Moves" : National Entrepreneurial Culture and Entrepreneurship-Friendly Policies: Evidence from OECD Countries

This paper investigates the impact of public policies aimed to foster entrepreneurship on the national entrepreneurial culture of a country. While most of the existing studies focus on the direct impact of policies on entrepreneurship outcomes, we propose that the impact of policies on entrepreneurial culture may be even more important for the development of economies in the long term. Using data

Chefskap och ledarskap - En kvalitativ studie om chefsprogrammet vid Primärvården Region Skåne

Being a manager and being defined as a good leader can differ in various organizations depending on the sector, profession, values and attitudes. The purpose of this thesis is to study management programs and how organizations work to implement leadership criteria and values into future managers. The purpose is fulfilled by studying the case of Primärvården Skåne and examining the essence of their

Slower Auger Recombination in 12-Faceted Dodecahedron CsPbBr3 Nanocrystals

Over the past two decades, intensive research efforts have been devoted to suppressions of Auger recombination in metal-chalcogenide and perovskite nanocrystals (PNCs) for the application of photovoltaics and light emitting devices (LEDs). Here, we have explored dodecahedron cesium lead bromide perovskite nanocrystals (DNCs), which show slower Auger recombination time compared to hexahedron nanocr

Performing Enriched Environment Studies to Improve Functional Recovery

Physical therapy and social interactions between the stroke patient and healthcare professionals or relatives facilitate the process of recovery and promote improvement of lost neurological function after stroke. These observations can be mimicked in an experimental setting by multimodal stimulation provided in the concept of enriched environment. The enriched environment is a housing condition co

Q-factor Bounds for Microstrip Patch Antennas

Antenna bounds are a useful tool in assessing the feasibility or performance of an antenna design. Microstrip patch antennas are often limited by their relatively narrow bandwidth, and therefore Q-factor is an important design parameter, as it is related to the inverse of the fractional bandwidth. This article presents the first tight lower Q-factor bounds on microstrip patch antennas supported by

SPACAP Working Paper No. 1 : How do Swedish Public Agencies understand, approach and operationalize Capacity Development work abroad?

Capacity development (CapDev) support through various Swedish public agencies (SPA) to their sister authorities in low- and middle-income countries has been a salient feature of Sweden’s institutional development cooperation since the1980s. Despite constituting a small percentage of Swedish aid, the scale and scope of SPAs engagement in CapDev work abroad deserves more attention than currently bei

Activity and segregation behavior of Pd75%Ag25%(1 1 1) during CO oxidation – An in situ NAP-XPS investigation

The surface reactivity during CO oxidation over Pd(1 1 1) and Pd75%Ag25%(1 1 1) single crystals has been investigated using near ambient pressure X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (NAP-XPS) under excess oxygen conditions (p ≈ 2 mbar, O2:CO=10). The (√6×√6) Pd5O4 surface oxide is present on Pd(1 1 1) when the surface is highly active under the applied conditions. The CO2 formation profile follows a

Informing the SWAT model with remote sensing detected vegetation phenology for improved modeling of ecohydrological processes

The Soil and Water Assessment Tool (SWAT) model has been widely applied for simulating the water cycle and quantifying the influence of climate change and anthropogenic activities on hydrological processes. A major uncertainty of SWAT stems from the poor representation of vegetation dynamics due to the use of a simplistic vegetation growth and development module. Using long-term remote sensing-bas

Jungfraujoch : hardware-accelerated data-acquisition system for kilohertz pixel-array X-ray detectors

The JUNGFRAU 4-megapixel (4M) charge-integrating pixel-array detector, when operated at a full 2 kHz frame rate, streams data at a rate of 17 GB s-1. To operate this detector for macromolecular crystallography beamlines, a data-acquisition system called Jungfraujoch was developed. The system, running on a single server with field-programmable gate arrays and general-purpose graphics processing uni

Machinability study on GCI brake discs - Effects of material variations and process behavior on tool life

Grey cast iron is one of the most used materials in the automotive industry. The material has a range of properties that makes it suitable for machining applications, but manufacturers still experience machinability problems. Automotive Components Floby (ACF), who currently experience machinability issues with brake discs, initiated this study to gain further understanding of tool deterioration in

Transition to Preschool : Paving the Way for Preschool Teacher and Family Relationship-Building

Background: Previous research suggests that interactions between preschool teachers and children in early care and educational contexts can contribute to the child’s positive attachment development and socioemotional adjustment. Objective: Investigate how the transition process to preschool is organized and whether various ways of organizing it may differently influence family–teacher relationship

Etisk konsumtion - ett krav eller en bluff? : en kvalitativ innehållsanalys av kritikstormen mot Nakd i en tid präglad av ett politiserat konsumtionssamhälle

Denna studie ämnar undersöka hur en protest mot ett företags socialt ohållbara arbetsvillkor framställs av anställda, influencers, följare och journalister i media och skapar en diskussion om konsumentmakt i en samtid präglad av en socialt hållbar konsumtion. I den samtida debatten om en socialt hållbar konsumtion växer en diskurs om etisk konsumtion, det vill säga att enskilda individer kan skapa

Jeffrey Dahmer : ett monster som återuppstått genom fankultur på TikTok

In this paper we examine TikTok trends relating to the serial killer Jeffrey Dahmer and the series about him, ”Dahmer – Monster: The Jeffrey Dahmer Story” (Brennan, Murphy 2022). Interest lies in how the fans and anti-fans of the series express themselves through video and text, as well as the role TikTok-creators play in the democratization of the media landscape. Naturally there is also an inter
