Motion sickness is thought to result from sensory conflict among visual, vestibular, and somatosensory inputs. Input from abdominal viscera may also contribute to motion detection. It affects up to two-thirds of the population and can be triggered by transport or virtual environments. Symptoms include nausea, dizziness, fatigue, and cognitive impairment. Treatments include antihistamines, scopolam
In communication and management research, coworker voice has been widely acknowledged as a central component for organizations’ long-term development and survival. With the increasing digitalization and need for flexibility, digital workplace meetings have become a common form of communication, demonstrating a new arena where coworker voice is expressed and shaped. Thus, the aim of this study is t
Symmetry breaking is a crucial technique in modern combinatorial solving, but it is difficult to be sure it is implemented correctly. The most successful approach to deal with bugs is to make solvers certifying, so that they output not just a solution, but also a mathematical proof of correctness in a standard format, which can then be checked by a formally verified checker. This requires justifyi
High-efficiency single-photon detection in the microwave domain is a key enabling technology for various quantum applications. However, the extremely low energy of microwave photons presents a fundamental challenge, preventing direct photon-to-charge conversion as achieved in optical systems using semiconductors. Here, we demonstrate continuous microwave photon detection with an efficiency approac
Despite being such an important factor for individual identity, Orthodox churches have not been sufficiently studied. In addition, the study of gender in these churches often seems formed by the impression that they do not change. This article therefore explores a seemingly static feature, the gendered seating in three Syriac Orthodox parishes in Sweden, from the point of view of space and agency:
Biografisk artikel om lundastudenten, biografägaren, läraren och astronomen Karl Oskar Krantz (1867-1933) med fokus på hans insats som filmpionjär inom genren karnevalsfilm.
In this study, we have investigated the dynamic behavior of colloidal rods within their isotropic phase, employing multispeckle ultrasmall-angle x-ray photon correlation spectroscopy (UA-XPCS) focusing on the understanding of the interplay between structure and dynamics at the nearest-neighbor length scale. While prior research has primarily focused on the structural aspects, our work addresses th
Despite Sweden's consistently high ranking in international gender-equality indices and a higher-than-average percentage of women in leadership roles, women remain a minority in the Swedish energy sector. This article traces how women, positioned as a minoritized group within this male-dominated field, develop the motivation to collectively challenge systemic inequality. The aim of the study is to
Using ultra-broadband transient terahertz (THz) spectroscopy, complemented by transient absorption (TA) and photoluminescence (PL) measurements, we directly track the generation and relaxation of photoexcited hot carriers, as well as the ultrafast formation of excitons in the transition metal phosphorus trichalcogenide NiPS3, with a temporal resolution of sub-100 fs. A subset of excitons exhibits
Housing preferences in later life vary, and housing decisions are complex. While much attention has been paid to health and accessibility, less is known about how financial factors influence housing decisions among older homeowners. This qualitative study aimed to deepen understanding of how single-family homeowners aged 55 and older reason about their housing situation. We conducted focus groups
The effects of oxygen concentration on combustion of gases have been investigated on fundamental levels in several studies. However, the same type of fundamental studies has not been made for liquid or solid fuels due to complex relationships between flame structure and changing mass loss rates (MLR). In this study, an experimental setup is designed that allows for extended times of stable combust
Southern Africa is a global hotspot for hydrometeorological risk, with intensifying droughts and floods increasingly disrupting livelihoods, ecosystems, and infrastructure. This study presents a systematic bibliometric and scientometric synthesis of 1481 peer-reviewed publications on drought and flood hazards published between 2000 and 2024 across the Southern African Development Community. Using
Background: Early identification of patients with suspected infection who are at risk of clinical deterioration in the Emergency Department (ED) is challenging, yet crucial for timely initiation of appropriate care and prevention of clinical deterioration. This multicenter international study evaluates the performance of established scores (SIRS, LODS, qSOFA, SOFA, NEWS) in predicting severe outco
The viability of a main-group triple bond depends critically on the strength of its π-manifold. Among the 15 possible diatomic homo- and interpnictogens, EE′, (E, E′ = group 15 element), the NN linkage of dinitrogen stands out as one of the strongest triple bonds that exists, whereas the heavier pnictogens form thermodynamically unstable triple bond motifs that either decompose to single-bonded ol
Photon counting computed tomography (PCCT) provides exceptional image quality with reduced radiation dose in temporal bone imaging and is emerging as a potential new gold standard. This study aims to assess the feasibility of an in-house micro-computed tomography (micro-CT) system equipped with Photon Counting Detector (PCD) technology and to compare it with a clinical PCCT scanner for temporal bo
Accurate prediction of groundwater levels (GWL) is essential for effective and sustainable water resource management, particularly in arid and semiarid regions where excessive extraction and climate change significantly accelerate aquifer depletion. The nonstationary characteristics of groundwater data pose significant challenges to the performance and reliability of conventional machine learning
