All-gluon amplitudes with off-shell recursion in multiplet bases

The efficient computation of color-summed QCD amplitudes at high parton multiplicities remains a central challenge for precision collider predictions. Existing approaches using trace, color-flow, or adjoint bases suffer from non-orthogonality, which complicates the color algebra and scales poorly with multiplicity. In this work, we present an off-shell recursive framework for computing all-gluon t

John Cassian, Rhetoric and Education : Reading the Conferences as Elaborated Chreias

John Cassian’s writings reveal an extensive education. In his works, he reflects on his own education, such as a case of mnemotechnical distraction, and also provides education for his readers. But it is also clear that he employs his own rhetorical education by using conscious rhetorical strategies. This third aspect is the focus of this article.

Feasibility of a Person-Centred Nursing Model Targeting Patient and Family Caregiver Needs in Allogeneic Haematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation

Background/Objectives: Undergoing intensive cancer treatment, such as allogeneic haematopoietic stem cell transplantation, challenges the entire life situation of patients and their family caregivers. A prerequisite for effective care is that interventions are tailored to the unique circumstances of each individual. The aim of this study was to examine the feasibility of a developed person-centred

The impact of changing forest composition in Europe - longest carbon turnover time in unmanaged and broadleaved deciduous forests

Forests play a crucial role in Europe’s strategy for achieving carbon neutrality. Carbon turnover time - the time that carbon spends in the ecosystem - is a fundamental component in determining forest potential to mitigate climate change. However, there is a significant knowledge gap regarding how current and future forest management practices will affect carbon turnover time. This study aims to c

Metabolic syndrome in childhood, adolescent, and young adult cancer survivors: recommendations for surveillance from the International Late Effects of Childhood Cancer Guideline Harmonization Group

Objective: Survivors of childhood, adolescent, and young adult (CAYA) cancer have an increased risk of metabolic syndrome (MetS). MetS describes the clustering of cardiovascular risk factors including overweight or obesity, hypertension, (pre)diabetes, and dyslipidaemia. While associated cardiovascular sequelae can be serious, MetS is preventable, manageable, and potentially reversible with the ap

A Snapshot Inventory of an Islet in the Baltic Sea

A brief presentation of a snapshot hymenopteran inventory of Stora Karlsö, Gotland, carried out in 2023. This was a follow-up inventory of another snapshot inventory done by Stigenberg et al. in 2014.

Unified Biosignal Acquisition in Virtual Reality - An Experimental Platform for EEG, EMG, and Joint Angle Data Collection

This thesis presents the development and evaluation of a virtual reality (VR) environment designed for integrated EEG, EMG, and joint movement data collection. The system combines immersive VR with biosignal acquisition technologies, including the Unicorn Hybrid Black EEG, the Myo Armband for electromyography and inertial sensing, and the Cyberglove for hand joint tracking. The goal was to create

Globalt problem – Lokala lösningar - en explorativ studie gällande det kommunala klimatarbetet hos mindre kommuner

Mindre kommuner är i uppstartsfasen med sitt klimatarbete. Hur ser klimatarbetet ut i mindre kommuner? Många storstäder och stora kommuner framhävs som progressiva klimatkämpar som arbetar aktivt med att bli både hållbara och klimatneutrala. Men storstäder och stora kommuner har ett större skatteunderlag och har resurserna att både anställa den lämpliga kompetensen och budgetera för olika klimat-There is scientific consensus today on the importance of local climate work. Many studies have investigated the mechanisms behind effective climate work and what makes some cities and large municipalities the frontrunners in driving progressive climate agendas. While this area of local climate work is well researched there is little research about how climate work looks like in small (non-rural) m

Formalizing Quantitative Risk Analysis: Probabilistic Foundations and Monte Carlo Methods

Kvantitativa riskanalyser (QRA) används för att bedöma säkerheten kring exempelvis kemiska anläggningar och transporter av farliga ämnen. I praktiken bygger många QRAs fortfarande på att man delar in världen i ett begränsat antal scenarier och gör flera beräkningar manuellt. Det gör metoden relativt grov och innebär att vissa antaganden och förenklingar blir svåra att upptäcka och diskutera. DennQuantitative Risk Analysis (QRA) for hazardous materials facilities remains dominated by event tree partitioning into discrete scenarios, with many calculations performed manually. This study formalizes the classical individual and societal risk metrics within the framework of probability theory. The resulting framework enables deeper theoretical inquiry and makes underlying assumptions explicit.

LIGHT/TNFSF14 Levels in Carotid Plaques Are Associated With Symptomatic Cerebrovascular Disease

Background and Purpose Plaque rupture is the underlying cause of most cardiovascular events, such as stroke and myocardial infarction. The co-stimulatory molecule LIGHT (tumor necrosis factor superfamily member 14, TNFSF14) has been detected in foam cell-rich regions of atherosclerotic plaques, but whether it has a role in plaque stability is not known. This study investigates the association betw

Brexit as a Driver of European Disintegration : Institutional Reform and Differentiated Integration

This study investigates the disintegrative impact of Brexit on the European Union’s institutional framework. Disintegration may occur in the form of other member states leaving the union. Still, it can also manifest in terms of institutional reform in the direction of increased intergovernmentalism and executive dominance, resulting in a renationalization of the EU’s policymaking competences. The

Bromelain : Targeting dental biofilm through dual approach of protein interaction and in vitro validation

Bromelain, a proteolytic enzyme isolated from pineapple, is renowned for its therapeutic applications. The present work was designed to investigate the anti-microbial potential of bromelain against dental plaque-causing microbes via in silico and in vitro studies. Firstly, in silico study was conducted where docking between bromelain and eight microbial growthpromoting proteins: Third fibronectin

Improving semi-device-independent randomness certification by entropy accumulation

Certified randomness guaranteed to be unpredictable by adversaries is central to information security. The fundamental randomness inherent in quantum physics makes certification possible from devices that are only weakly characterized, i.e., requiring little trust in their implementation. It was recently shown that the amount of certifiable randomness can be improved using the so-called entropy ac

Predictability effects in the processing of negation : an ERP study

To examine whether processing of negated meanings is facilitated in highly predictable contexts and proceeds incrementally rather than with a delay, we asked participants to read highly constraining sentences containing negated adjectives (e.g., awake/responding/commercial) that were either strongly expected in a high-cloze condition (awake), weakly expected in a low-cloze condition (responding),

Participating in decision-making at the end of life: The self-reported ability of people with cancer across 11 countries

ObjectivesUncertainty among healthcare providers about patients’ ability to make care decisions is a barrier to shared decision-making. We aimed to assess the self-reported decision-making ability of patients with cancer at the end of life.MethodsData from 11 countries of adults with a limited life expectancy and cancer as the primary diagnosis were used. Participants completed a questionnaire, in

Operando APXPS for direct probing of Li ion battery LCO electrode/electrolyte interface chemistry during lithiation/delithiation

The real-time interface chemistry between the lithium cobalt oxide (LCO) working electrode and the LiClO4/propylene carbonate (PC) electrolyte is investigated during lithiation/delithiation using dip-and-pull ambient pressure photoelectron spectroscopy (APXPS). The APXPS results appear to exhibit the seldom discussed Co2+ state in the LCO structure, where the operando measurements indicate electro
