Skyldigheten att begära förhandsavgörande har under senare år aktualiserats i en rad avgöranden från EU-domstolen. Samtidigt som domstolen för första gången har fällt en medlemsstat för att inte uppfylla nämnda skyldighet i Kommissionen mot Frankrike (mål C-416/17) har EU-domstolen delvis lättat de krav som ställs på nationella domstolar genom den s.k. Cilfit-doktrinen. I en rykande färsk artikel,

I artikeln "Bostadsrätten som investering" analyserar jag hur den kapitalbeskattning som belöper på bostadsrättens underliggande tillgångsslag har förskjutits under åren 2000–2021.

The important electrochemical processes in a battery happen at the solid/liquid interfaces. Operando ambient pressure photoelectron spectroscopy (APPES) is one tool to study these processes with chemical specificity. However, accessing this crucial interface and identifying the interface signal are not trivial. Therefore, we present a measurement setup, together with a suggested model, exemplifyin

Leaf pigments are critical indicators of plant photosynthesis, stress, and physiological conditions. Inversion of radiative transfer models (RTMs) is a promising method for robustly retrieving leaf biochemical traits from canopy observations, and adding prior information has been effective in alleviating the “ill-posed” problem, a major challenge in model inversion. Canopy structure parameters, su

Background: Little is known about small bowel capsule endoscopy (SBCE) outcomes in patients with surgically altered anatomy. Aims: To assess the feasibility and diagnostic yield of orally ingested SBCE to investigate obscure gastrointestinal bleeding (OGIB) in patients with surgically altered gastric anatomy, compared to native gastric anatomy. Methods: 207 patients with OGIB were selected from an

Premixed laminar flat non-stretched flames of methyl acetate + air have been studied at atmospheric pressure. The heat flux method was employed to stabilize the flames over equivalence ratios ɸ = 0.7–1.5 at initial gas temperatures from 298 to 348 K. The laminar burning velocities of methyl acetate + air mixtures have been measured at these conditions and compared with the literature data. Laser-i

Environmental and urbanization challenges during the last few decades encouraged steady growth of mass timber construction where attention is drawn to cross laminated timber (CLT) as one of the most interesting products in terms of mechanical properties, versatility, efficient prefabrication and sustainability. Standardisation and codification regarding testing and design of CLT elements are hence

Ternary III-V nanowires are commonly grown using the Au-seeded vapor-liquid-solid method, wherein the solid nanowires are grown from nanoscale liquid seed particles, which are supplied with growth species from the surrounding vapor phase. A result of the small size of these seed particles is that their composition can vary significantly during the cyclical layer-by-layer growth, despite experienci

In the early morning, large groups of up to hundreds or even thousands of roosting birds, sometimes comprising the entire roost population, often take off together in sudden mass departures. These departures commonly occur in low-light conditions and structurally complex habitats where access to visual cues is likely to be restricted. Roosting birds are often highly vocal, leading us to hypothesis

Dendrochronology is a well-established dating method for wooden objects, but due to surface processing of construction timber or natural degradation the dating of historical wood often relies on a prediction of the number of missing rings based on sapwood statistics. Since Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris L.) is one of the most common tree species in north-western Europe, the absence of reliable sapwo

Species distributed across climatic gradients will typically experience spatial variation in selection, but gene flow can prevent such selection from causing population genetic differentiation and local adaptation. Here, we studied genomic variation of 415 individuals across 34 populations of the common wall lizard (Podarcis muralis) in central Italy. This species is highly abundant throughout thi

To accelerate the materials discovery and development process for a sustainable technology advancement it is imperative to explore and develop combined high-throughput material synthesis and analysis workflows. In this work, we investigate a method of combinatorial inkjet-printing to tune the composition of the inorganic cesium lead mixed halide perovskite solid solution, CsPb(BrxI1-x)3. The compo

Background: Severe COVID-19 lung disease exhibits a high degree of spatial and temporal heterogeneity, with different histological features coexisting within a single individual. It is important to capture the disease complexity to support patient management and treatment strategies. We provide spatially decoded analyses on the immunopathology of diffuse alveolar damage (DAD) patterns and factors

PACs (polycylic aromatic compounds) are air pollutants formed in incomplete combustion, e.g., in vehicle engines. Vegetation can potentially remove substantial amounts and act as bioindicators of these pollutants. Increased knowledge of the pollutant removal efficiencies of different tree species is essential for understanding the potential benefits trees can provide urban residents. We investigat

The ancient Ventspils Lagoon is an area where human settlements have been located on former coastal landforms and sediments. However, the chronology of its development has so far not been studied in detail. Since the ancient lagoon is dominated by sand deposition, optically stimulated luminescence dating (OSL) was used to determine when the ancient coast was formed. Twenty-one OSL samples gave a w

Air pollution poses a threat to human health, with pregnant women and their developing fetuses being particularly vulnerable. A high dual burden of ambient and indoor air pollution exposure has been identified in Ethiopia, but studies investigating their effects on adverse birth outcomes are currently lacking. This study explores the association between ambient air pollution (NOX and NO2) and indo

The usage of induction hardening in the industry has increased in the last years due to its efficiency and repeatability. Induction hardening produces a hard martensitic layer on the specimen surface, which is accompanied by the generation of compressive residual stresses in the hardened case and tensile stresses in the untreated core. Residual stresses generated by induction hardening greatly imp

This investigation aims to obtain a thermosensitive platform useful for specific nanomedicine applications through the addition of suitable salts. An aqueous mixture consisting of the copolymer Pluronic F127 and sodium carboxymethyl-cellulose, in a ratio of 20/4 by weight, in the presence of different concentrations of Na2SO4, NaCl, and NaSCN, was investigated using the visual inversion tube appro

Background: Men are more severely affected by COVID-19. Testosterone may influence SARS-CoV-2 infection and the immune response. Objective: To clinically, epidemiologically, and experimentally evaluate the effect of antiandrogens on SARS-CoV-2 infection. Designs, settings, and participants: A randomized phase 2 clinical trial (COVIDENZA) enrolled 42 hospitalized COVID-19 patients before safety eva

We report a multi-modal study of the electrical, chemical and structural properties of a kesterite thin-film solar cell by combining the spatially-resolved X-ray beam induced current and fluorescence imaging techniques for the evaluation of a fully functional device on a cross-section. The data allowed the correlation of the chemical composition, defects at interfaces and inhomogeneous deposition
