En betydande del av näringslivet och civilsamhället bedrivs av och i olika slags associationer. Associationsrätt handlar om de regler som möjliggör och styr verksamheten i associationerna. Associationsrättens grunder ger en systematisk överblick över rättsområdet och dess centrala problem. Fokus ligger på allmänna bolags- och föreningsformer, men boken redogör även för regleringen av stiftelser. I

Investigating how publics form, this study aims to develop an understanding of how publics of Sweden’s feminist foreign policy are constructed in public diplomacy discourse. To this end, the study conceptualizes publics as forming around perceptions of foreign policy that are mediated through public diplomacy events. Based on a debate on Sweden’s feminist foreign policy on the digital platform Red

The tenth-century Byzantine hagiographical Life of Theoktiste, written by Niketas Magistros, has been read in various ways, not in the least intertextually and as the life of a non-existing saint. The present article further investigates the motives of the author, the social and cultural vision, as well as generic notions, embedded in the text, and offers a new date of composition for the Life, vi

Nearly 60% of the worlds adult population is projected to be overweight or obese by 2030. The prevalence of obesity- related diseases, such as type 2 diabetes (T2D), has increased markedly in the past decades. The adipose tissue plays an important role in disease progression of T2D. Adipocyte insulin sensitivity, adipose tissue’s ability to expand, and accumulation of subcutaneous rather than visc

Background: Most antidepressant treatment studies have included patients strictly based on the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders definition of Major Depressive Disorder (MDD). Given the heterogeneity of MDD, this approach may have obscured inter-patient differences and hampered the development of novel and targeted treatment strategies. An alternative strategy is ​​to use bioma

In this paper, we present an extension of MadGraph5_aMC@NLO which is able to evaluate tree-level QCD matrix-elements up to 2 → 6 (one more particle than before). To achieve this, we implemented Berends–Giele-like recursion, and re-implemented the way colour is computed such that we can now expand the colour matrix in powers of 1 / Nc and truncate this expansion to a chosen order. For high multipli

Wood is a remarkable material with great cultural, economic, and biogeochemical importance. However, our understanding of its formation is poor. Key properties that have not been explained include the anatomy of growth rings (with consistent transitions from low-density earlywood to high density latewood), strong temperature-dependence of latewood density (used for historical temperature reconstru

Biological membranes constantly change their shape in response to external stimuli, and understanding the remodeling and stability of vesicles in heterogeneous environments is therefore of fundamental importance for a range of cellular processes. One crucial question is how vesicles respond to external osmotic stresses, imposed by differences in solute concentrations between the vesicle interior a

Background: Associations between birth weight (BW) and adult lung function have been inconsistent and limited to early adulthood. We aimed to study this association in two population-based cohorts and explore if BW, adjusted for gestational age, predicts adult lung function. We also tested adult lung function impairment according to the mis-match hypothesis—small babies growing big as adults. Meth

Despite the importance of high-latitude surface energy budgets (SEBs) for land-climate interactions in the rapidly changing Arctic, uncertainties in their prediction persist. Here, we harmonize SEB observations across a network of vegetated and glaciated sites at circumpolar scale (1994–2021). Our variance-partitioning analysis identifies vegetation type as an important predictor for SEB-component

Why and how new migration routes emerge remain fundamental questions in ecology, particularly in the context of current global changes. In its early stages, when few individuals are involved, the evolution of new migration routes can be easily confused with vagrancy, i.e. the occurrence of individuals outside their regular breeding, non-breeding or migratory distribution ranges. Yet, vagrancy can

Euthymios the Athonite (or the Iberian; ca. 955–1028) is a well-known translator of Greek hagiographical and patristic texts into Georgian. He also made reverse translations, not least the story of Barlaam and Ioasaph, from Georgian into Greek. An array of Greek texts at his disposal helped him turn the story into a recognizable Byzantine text, free of dogmatic problems. Based on the results by Gr

A search for the pair production of heavy leptons as predicted by the type-III seesaw mechanism is presented. The search uses proton–proton collision data at a centre-of-mass energy of 13 TeV, corresponding to 139fb-1 of integrated luminosity recorded by the ATLAS detector during Run 2 of the Large Hadron Collider. The analysis focuses on final states with three or four electrons or muons from the
