Objective. Experimental determination of beam quality k Q factors for two types of Farmer ionization chambers, NE2571 and IBA FC65-G, in a scanned proton beam for three nominal energies (140 MeV, 180 MeV and 220 MeV) based on water calorimetry. Approach. Beam quality correction factors were determined comparing the results obtained with water calorimetry and ionometry. Water calorimetry was perfor

Bio-based 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) serves as an important platform for several chemicals, among which 2,5-furan dicarboxylic acid (FDCA) has attracted considerable interest as a monomer for the production of polyethylene furanoate (PEF), a potential alternative for fossil-based polyethylene terephthalate (PET). This study is based on the HMF oxidizing activity shown by Mycobacterium sp. MS 16

A robust water supply system is significant to the local ecosystem of riparian vegetation in the arid basin. Considering the elasticity and relative importance of ecological water use in different regions of the basin, this study defines the ecological water rights on a multi-year scale, divides the priority of those rights based on the ecological network, and proposes a rights allocation method.

Redogörelse för de tidiga lundensiska (och i någon mån uppsaliensiska) studenthemmens tillkomst kopplad till en biografisk skiss över den förste "hemiten" (boende på Thomanders studenthem), Emil Sommarin, respektive ett resonemang huruvida denne kan ses som en "typisk" hemit.

The effect of instantaneous spectral diffusion (ISD) on gate operations in rare-earth-ion-doped crystals is an important question to answer for the future of rare-earth quantum computing. Here we present a microscopic modeling that highlights the stochastic nature of the phenomenon and use it to investigate ISD errors on single-qubit gate operations. Furthermore, we present a method to estimate th

We present two protocols for constructing quantum processor nodes in randomly doped rare-earth-ion crystals and analyze their properties. By varying the doping concentration and the accessible laser tunability, the processor nodes can contain anywhere from only a few tens to almost 1000 qubits. Furthermore, the average number of qubits each qubit can interact with, denoted by the connectivity, can

This paper explores the processing of sensitive personal data for genealogical purposes by studying how the privacy policies of three direct-to-consumer genetic testing companies relate to the general Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). The methodological approach is content analysis. The privacy policies are analysed in relation to the three core principles of 1) adherence to GDPR; 2) transparent

The purpose of this study is to explore how nationalism shapes the public perception of multinational corporations’ crises on Chinese social media. Using qualitative content analysis, this study examines 1,000 public comments from the top 10 hashtag posts and explores the interaction between nationalist expression (i.e., content and sentiment of nationalism) and the public’s perception of the Unit

Även om spännvidden är stor vad gäller fackområde, beslutssituation och omfattning har utredningarna det gemensamt att de behöver vägledas av rekommendationer för hur utredningsarbete bedrivs och bedöms på bästa sätt. Att göra utredningar inom offentlig sektor strävar efter att presentera olika metodfrågor på ett enkelt sätt. Boken förklarar också logiken bakom olika metodkrav, till exempel kravet

Rapporten framhåller vikten av ledningens förståelse av styrning och rutiner kontra delaktighet och frihet samt betydelsen av bekräftelse och prioriteringar för att igångsätta och långsiktigt arbeta med och för ung delaktighet.

Analogical transfer, denoting the ability to use an action that solved a given problem in order to successfully handle a seemingly different but functionally similar problem, requires well- developed self-regulation, as it draws on previous knowledge and demands selecting and shift- ing between relevant features while ignoring irrelevant ones. Thus, analogical transfer involves executive functions

Projektet bygger på ett samarbete med regionens folkhögskolor och Folkuniversitetet när det gäller behörighetsgivande utbildning. Det är med andra ord viktigt att göra en kartläggning av hur olika universitetsförberedande utbildningar arbetar för att säkerställa behörighet och hur detta skall kunna bli en integrerad del av arbetet med breddad rekrytering på Lunds universitet.

Strax sydöst om Ronneby i anslutning till Angelåns utlopp i Angelskogsviken, öster om Ronnebyhamn , ligger en anläggning som i folkmun kallas ”Hagbards källare”. Det utgör resterna av ett medeltida torn. Artikeln berättar om de preliminära resultaten av en arkeologisk undersökning 2021.

To move between different semiotic systems, such as graphs and formulas, is a necessary step in learning physics or solving problems. In social semiotics, this movement of semiotic material is called a transduction and during a transduction a student must unpack, filter, and highlight different aspects of the concept or problem. Unpacking, filtering, and highlighting have been shown to be importan

Dementia assessment requires functional communication and interaction between healthcare professionals and the patient being assessed. These can be affected by the requirement for an interpreter to communicate with the patient. The purpose of this study was to elucidate the interactions between patient, healthcare professionals and interpreter, focusing on the role of the interpreter and the chall

Mentalizing, or reasoning about others’ mental states, is a dynamic social cognitive process that aids in communication and navigating complex social interactions. We examined whether exposure to diverse perspectives, afforded by occupying influential social network positions, predicted bilingual adults’ performances on a behavioral mentalizing rating task in regions of high and low linguistic div
