First measurement of the

The first measurement of the cross section for coherent J/ψ photoproduction as a function of |t|, the square of the momentum transferred between the incoming and outgoing target nucleus, is presented. The data were measured with the ALICE detector in ultra-peripheral Pb–Pb collisions at a centre-of-mass energy per nucleon pair sNN=5.02TeV with the J/ψ produced in the central rapidity region |y|

Benefits and challenges of adding participant photography to qualitative residential research

This article discusses the benefits and challenges of adding participant-producedphotographs to qualitative interviewing. The analysis is based on twoqualitative studies aimed at improving the understanding of how residentsexperience and use their a) luminaires and b) window openings. A conveniencesample (N = 12) was asked to take photographs of all luminaires intheir apartments. Facilitated by th

Atomic and Molecular Dynamics Probed by Intense Extreme Ultraviolet Attosecond Pulses

This thesis work was aimed to investigate dynamical processes in atoms and molecules on ultrafast time scales initiated by absorption of light in the extreme ultraviolet (XUV) regime. In particular, photoionization and photodissociation have been studied using pump-probe techniques involving ultrafast laser pulses. Such pulses are generated using either high-order harmonic generation (HHG) or free

Perceived Causal Problem Networks: Reliability, Central Problems and Clinical Utility for Depression

Personalized case conceptualization is often regarded as a prerequisite for treatment success in psychotherapy for patients with comorbidity. This article presents Perceived Causal Networks, a novel method in which patients rate perceived causal relations among behavioral and emotional problems. First, 231 respondents screening positive for depression completed an online Perceived Causal Networks

Sightless Reading : Cases of paranormal text consumption

This is an article about the blurred borders between fiction and ‘fact’, between science and humbug, and between different ways of reading. Unexpected modes of consuming texts are explored; transposition of the senses, Jules Romain’s theories of la vision extra-rétinienne and le sens paroptique, and the famous Rosa Kuleshova’s dermo-optical perception.

An Industrial Workbench for Test Scenario Identification for Autonomous Driving Software

Testing of autonomous vehicles involves enormous challenges for the automotive industry. The number of real-world driving scenarios is extremely large, and choosing effective test scenarios is essential, as well as combining simulated and real world testing. We present an industrial workbench of tools and workflows to generate efficient and effective test scenarios for active safety and autonomous

Search for doubly and singly charged Higgs bosons decaying into vector bosons in multi-lepton final states with the ATLAS detector using proton-proton collisions at √s = 13 TeV

A search for charged Higgs bosons decaying into W±W± or W±Z bosons is performed, involving experimental signatures with two leptons of the same charge, or three or four leptons with a variety of charge combinations, missing transverse momentum and jets. A data sample of proton-proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 13 TeV recorded with the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider betwe

Closing the Feedback Loop in DevOps Through Autonomous Monitors in Operations

DevOps represent the tight connection between development and operations. To address challenges that arise on the bor- derline between development and operations, we conducted a study in collaboration with a Swedish company responsible for ticket management and sales in public transportation. The aim of our study was to explore and describe the existing DevOps environment, as well as to identify h

Melankoli och materia : Om bokens betydelse för verket och bandets för boken

Texten vann första pris i tidskriften Biblis Essaytävling år 2000. Den behandlar relationen mellan det abstrakta verket och den konkreta boken samt bokbandets betydelse för boken. Essän visar hur dessa frågor omsatts i passager hos Enrique Vila-Matas, Franz Schuh, Walter Benjamin m fl samt förhåller sig till idéer som bokvägningsmaskinen hos shandyisterna och Werner Hamachers rader om att allt läs

Indoor Localization for Fire Safety : A brief overview of fundamentals, needs and requirements and applications

An indoor localization system for positioning evacuating people can be anticipated to increase the chances of a safe evacuation and effective rescue intervention in case of a tunnel fire. Such a system may utilize prevalent wireless technologies, e.g., Bluetooth, RFID and Wi-Fi, which today are used to survey incoming and outgoing traffic to a certain space or location, to estimate group sizes and

A two-colour immunofluorescence test with a monoclonal human proinsulin antibody improves the assay for islet cell antibodies

The conventional indirect immunofluorescence assay for islet cell antibodies was compared with a two-colour immunofluorescent assay to detect both islet cell antibodies with fluorescein isothiocyanate-labeled rabbit anti-human IgG and pancreatic B cells with a monoclonal human proinsulin antibody and Texas red-labeled sheep anti-mouse IgG. Determinations of end-point titres showed a correlation be

The pancreatic beta-cell recognition of insulin secretagogues. Effects of calcium and sodium on glucose metabolism and insulin release

The transport and oxidation of glucose, the content of fructose 1,6-diphosphate, and the release of insulin were studied in microdissected pancreatic islets of ob/ob mice incubated in Krebs-Ringer bicarbonate medium. Under control conditions glucose oxidation and insulin release showed a similar dependence on glucose concentration with the steepest slope in the range 5-12mm. The omission of Ca(2+)

Regimen i Iran beskriver svenskar som barbariska vikingar i ny dokumentär

Den islamistiska regimen är upprörd över en svensk rättegång mot en tidigare tjänsteman för massmord, och en iransk dokumentär visar upp en kidnappad svensk-iranier i en propagandakampanj mot Sverige, skriver våra gästkrönikörer Arvin och Ardavan Khoshnood.The Islamic regime in Iran is outraged by a Swedish trial of a former mass murder official, and an Iranian documentary shows a kidnapped Swedish-Iranian in a propaganda campaign against Sweden, write our guest columnists Arvin and Ardavan Khoshnood.

Off-axis multilayer zone plate with 16 nm × 28 nm focus for high-resolution X-ray beam induced current imaging

Using multilayer zone plates (MZPs) as two-dimensional optics, focal spot sizes of less than 10 nm can be achieved, as we show here with a focus of 8.4 nm × 9.6 nm, but the need for order-sorting apertures prohibits practical working distances. To overcome this issue, here an off-axis illumination of a circular MZP is introduced to trade off between working distance and focal spot size. By this, t

Streaming instability of multiple particle species : II. Numerical convergence with increasing particle number

The streaming instability provides an efficient way of overcoming the growth barriers in the initial stages of the planet formation process. Considering the realistic case of a particle size distribution, the dynamics of the system is altered compared to the outcome of single size models. In order to understand the outcome of the multispecies streaming instability in detail, we perform a large par

Formation of planetary systems by pebble accretion and migration : Hot super-Earth systems from breaking compact resonant chains

At least 30% of main sequence stars host planets with sizes of between 1 and 4 Earth radii and orbital periods of less than 100 days.We use N-body simulations including a model for gas-assisted pebble accretion and disk–planet tidal interaction to study the formation of super-Earth systems.We show that the integrated pebble mass reservoir creates a bifurcation between hot super-Earths or hot-Neptu

Formation of Venus, Earth and Mars : Constrained by Isotopes

Here we discuss the current state of knowledge of terrestrial planet formation from the aspects of different planet formation models and isotopic data from 182Hf-182W, U-Pb, lithophile-siderophile elements, 48Ca/44Ca isotope samples from planetary building blocks, recent reproduction attempts from 36Ar/38Ar, 20Ne/22Ne, 36Ar/22Ne isotope ratios in Venus’ and Earth’s atmospheres, the expected solar
