Evoking a Space Beyond Cinema

The exhibition features Aggregate States of Matters (2019), a film shot in the Peruvian Andes with the support of proyectoamil, in addition to a selection of her recent work. In 2002, Rosa Barba had one of her first exhibitions at the Sala Luis Miro-Quesada Garland in Miraflores (Lima) which started her enduring connection with Peru. During that visit Barba travelled extensively throughout the cou

Comparing terrestrial laser scanning (TLS) and satellite imagery for estimating carbon stocks in trees of a semi-arid savannah

Due to the intensifying impacts of climate change, accurate estimation of global carbon stocks is crucial, with aboveground vegetation biomass representing a significant carbon reservoir. Savannahs, which cover approximately 50% of the African continent, play a vital role in carbon storage, as trees within these ecosystems contribute substantially to the continent’s total carbon stocks. Estimating

Flood Risk Assessment for the Kävlinge River for Present and Future Climate Scenarios using HEC-RAS Rain-on-Grid

Extrema klimathändelser, såsom betydande översvämningar, utgör en risk för naturkatastrofer. På grund av klimatförändringarnas effekter förväntas södra Sverige få fler betydande regnväder som kan orsaka översvämningar i allt högre grad med mängden utsläpp. I denna studie undersöks dagens och framtidens översvämningsrisk i ett litet område i denna region, inom Kävlinges avrinningsområde. I det framExtreme climate events, such as significant flooding, pose a natural disaster risk. Due to climate change effects, the southern region of Sweden is anticipated to receive more significant rainstorms that could cause flooding increasingly with the quantity of emissions. This study examines the present-day and future climate’s flooding risk in a small area in this region, within the Kävlinge Watersh

Voice Engine & Hear, There Where the Echoes Are

Rosa Barba takes the components of cinema apart, giving each element a position in space and then starts playing with them. Designed as a promenade through the gallery, teeming with memories, the work offers a sensory experience that is further reinforced and enlivened with sound recordings of the vocal and musical performances.

The origin of the H αline profiles in simulated disc galaxies

Observations of ionized H αgas in high-redshift disc galaxies have ubiquitously found significant line broadening, σH α∼10 -100 km s-1 . To understand whether this broadening reflects gas turbulence within the interstellar medium (ISM) of galactic discs, or arises from out-of-plane emission in mass-loaded outflows, we perform radiation hydrodynamic simulations of isolated Milky Way-mass disc galax

Breast cancer hormone receptor levels and benefit from adjuvant tamoxifen in a randomized trial with long-term follow-up

BACKGROUND: Hormone receptor positivity predicts benefit from endocrine therapy but the knowledge about the long-term survival of patients with different tumor receptor levels is limited. In this study, we describe the 25 years outcome of tamoxifen (TAM) treated patients.PATIENTS AND METHODS: Between 1983 and 1992, a total of 4,610 postmenopausal patients with early-stage breast cancer were random

Prediction of High Nodal Burden in Patients With Sentinel Node-Positive Luminal ERBB2-Negative Breast Cancer

IMPORTANCE: In patients with clinically node-negative (cN0) breast cancer and 1 or 2 sentinel lymph node (SLN) macrometastases, omitting completion axillary lymph node dissection (CALND) is standard. High nodal burden (≥4 axillary nodal metastases) is an indication for intensified treatment in luminal breast cancer; hence, abstaining from CALND may result in undertreatment.OBJECTIVE: To develop a

Signal amplification in molecular sensing by imprinted polymers

In the field of sensing, the development of sensors with high sensitivity, accuracy, selectivity, sustainability, simplicity, and low cost remains a key focus. Over the past decades, optical and electrochemical sensors based on molecular imprinting techniques have garnered significant attention due to the above advantages. Molecular imprinting technology utilizes molecularly imprinted polymers (MI

Vestibular stimulation for promoting development and preventing morbidity in preterm infants

Objectives: This is a protocol for a Cochrane Review (intervention). The objectives are as follows:. To assess the benefits and harms of vestibular stimulation compared to standard care or non-vestibular stimulation for physical and neurological development in preterm infants. To assess whether the effects of vestibular stimulation differ according to gestational age at birth; the type, frequency,

A conceptual framework for landscape-based environmental risk assessment (ERA) of pesticides

While pesticide use is subject to strict regulatory oversight worldwide, it remains a main concern for environmental protection, including biodiversity conservation. This is partly due to the current regulatory approach that relies on separate assessments for each single pesticide, crop use, and non-target organism group at local scales. Such assessments tend to overlook the combined effects of ov

Flame structure of single aluminum droplets burning in hot steam-dominated flows

In this work, a specially designed experimental setup is employed to study the ignition and combustion of single aluminum droplets in hot steam-dominated flows. The transient burning behaviors of Al droplets of different sizes are characterized by simultaneously visualizing the flame incandescence and droplet shadowgraphs with two high-speed cameras at high magnification. The combustion process ca

In-cycle evolution of thickness and roughness parameters during oxygen plasma enhanced ZnO atomic layer deposition using in situ spectroscopic ellipsometry

We investigate the time evolution of ZnO thin film growth in oxygen plasma-enhanced atomic layer deposition using in situ spectroscopic ellipsometry. The recently proposed dynamic-dual-box-model approach [Kilic et al., Sci. Rep. 10, 10392 (2020)] is used to analyze the spectroscopic data post-growth. With the help of this model, we explore the in-cycle surface modifications and reveal the repetiti

MAGIC library – A tool to assess surface water acidification

We have developed a tool, the MAGIC library, which provides an acidification assessment for any given lake or stream in Sweden based on ten parameters describing lake geographical position, surface area, annual discharge and observed lake water chemistry. The MAGIC library consists of two key components: a library of the existing MAGIC model simulations for 2438 lakes and an analogue matching rout

EXPLORING THE HYDROMECHANICS OF A HETEROGENEOUS POROUS SANDSTONE: COUPLED IN SITU EXPERIMENTS WITH X-RAY AND NEUTRON IMAGING

In geoengineering, such as oil and gas production, geological CO2 storage, geothermal projects, and environmental remediation, a detailed understanding of the hydraulic and mechanical properties of sandstone properties is crucial. Traditional theories on the hydraulic and mechanical behavior of rocks rely on bulk measurements from boundary sensors, which fail to capture complex heterogeneity in st

Heschl's gyrus and the temporal pole : The cortical lateralization of language

The left lateralization of language has been attributed to hemispheric specialization for processing rapidly changing information. While interhemispheric differences in auditory cortex organization support this view, the macrostructure of the entire cerebral cortex has not been thoroughly examined from this perspective. This study investigated hemispheric asymmetries in cortical surface area and t

Experimental optimization of second-order harmonic generation for higher-order generation applications

När atomer och molekyler interagerar med laserfält av hög intensitet kan fascinerande och oväntade fenomen uppstå. Två viktiga genombrott inom laserforskningen inträffade på 1960- respektive 1980-talet, när två besläktade men distinkta processer upptäcktes. Den senare av dessa ledde till Nobelpriset i fysik 2023, vilket skapade svensk historia. När en högintensiv laserstråle fokuseras på en kristAn atom interacting with a strong laser field can give rise to high-order harmonic generation (HHG), a non-perturbative, highly non-linear process. The resulting HHG spectrum is a comb of odd harmonics. For some experiments, a large energy difference between consecutive harmonics is beneficial. In order to achieve a larger spacing between harmonics, second-harmonic (SH) radiation resulting from an

Assessment of the relational strength between triggers detected in physiological signals and the occurrence of atrial fibrillation episodes

Objective. Despite the growing interest in understanding the role of triggers of paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (AF), solutions beyond questionnaires to identify a broader range of triggers remain lacking. This study aims to investigate the relation between triggers detected in wearable-based physiological signals and the occurrence of AF episodes. Approach. Week-long physiological signals were co

Heme : A link between hemorrhage and retinopathy of prematurity progression

Neovascularization is implicated in the pathology of retinopathy of prematurity (ROP), diabetic retinopathy (DR), and age-related macular degeneration (AMD), which are the leading causes of blindness worldwide. In our work, we analyzed how heme released during hemorrhage affects hypoxic response and neovascularization. Our retrospective clinical analysis demonstrated, that hemorrhage was associate
