Synchrotron-radiation nano-X-Ray Fluorescence (XRF) is a cutting-edge technique offering high-resolution insights into the elemental composition of biological tissues, shedding light on metabolic processes and element localization within cellular structures. In the context of Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (IPF), a debilitating lung condition associated with respiratory complications and reduced li

Autoethnography is an increasingly used method to promote individual and group reflexivity in research, not the least in healthcare. However, autoethnography's uptake among practitioners is impeded by the fact that it has not been adequately adapted to practitioner settings from its academic origins. This article analyzes the experience of a research team comprised of practitioners/surgeons and so

Energy management in urban areas is challenging due to diverse energy users, dynamics environmental conditions, and the added complexity and instability of extreme weather events. We incorporate adaptive reinforcement learning (ARL) into energy management (EM) and introduce a novel approach, called ARLEM. An online, value-based, model-free ARL engine is designed that updates its policy periodicall

With the world facing severe ecological degradation, we hear calls for radical change more and more often. One of these calls is for degrowth in materially wealthy nations, including the Nordics. Degrowth fundamentally challenges the modern assumption that economic growth is good for humanity and the planet, and therefore necessitates change in civil society, state and production. In the contempor

Artikeln tar sin utgångspunkt i Inspektionen för socialförsäkringens rapport om utmaningarna som plattformsarbetare möter i socialförsäkringarna och den pågående diskussionen om den särskilda bedömning för behovsanställda som infördes i sjukförsäkringen 1 februari 2022. Artikeln diskuterar vidare den flexibilisering som skett av den svenska arbetsrättsliga modellen och dess konsekvenser i relation

Pathways to Sustainable Welfare critically examines how cities can address the dual challenges of climate change and sustainability while ensuring the welfare of their populations.Focused on three Swedish cities, it explores the integration of environmental and welfare concerns in local policies, urban movements and public opinions. Based on theories of inertia, emergence and transformation, it id

Kapitel om olika förhållningssätt till monument, från bildstormande till ointresse med exempel från skånska statydebatter under det senaste årtiondet.Chapter on different approaches to monuments, from iconoclasm to disinterested, with examples from Scanian statue debates over the past decade.

We reconstruct Quantum Mechanics in a way that harmonizes with classical mechanics and electromagnetism, free from mysteries or paradoxes such as the collapse of the wave function or Schrödinger’s cat. The construction is inspired by de Broglie’s and Schrödinger’s wave mechanics, while the unifying principle is Hamilton’s principle of least action, which separates natural laws from particular circ

The moult of Barred Warblers Sylvia nisoria was studied during three winter seasons in southeastern Kenya at a southward passage site (Ngulia) and a wintering site (Mtito Andei). Most Barred Warblers migrating through Ngulia in November had yet to commence winter moult. These birds probably moulted subsequently in winter in northern Tanzania. In December, birds were found in heavy moult at Mtito A

The orientation of juvenile marsh warblers during autumn migration was investigated at two widely different latitudes, in Sweden and in Kenya, by cage experiments in manipulated magnetic fields during the twilight period after sunset. The objective was to compare responses by birds exposed to different geomagnetic conditions, particularly to the shift in magnetic inclination between the northern a

A male common swift Apus apus was equipped with a light logger on August 5, 2010, and again captured in his nest 298 days later. The data stored in the light logger enables analysis of the fascinating travel it made in this time period. The state of the art algorithm for geolocation based on light loggers consists in computing first sunrise and sunset from the logged data, which are then converted
