A reconfigurable digital root raised cosine (RRC) filter for a UMTS terrestrial radio access (UTRA) mobile terminal receiver is implemented on a Xilinx Vitrex II Pro Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA). The filter employs a finite impulse response (FIR) and monitors in-band and out-of-band received signal powers and calculates the appropriate filter length that meets the bit-energy to interferenc

During a series of HST/STIS observations of Eta Carinae and associatedejecta, we noticed a peculiar emission filament located a few arcsecondsnorth of the central source. While bright in nebular standards, it issubmerged in a sea of scattered starlight until moderately highdispersion, long-slit spectroscopy with the STIS (R 8000) brings theemission lines out. The initial spectrum, centered on 6768

Popular Abstract in Swedish Denna avhandling handlar om stam- och progenitorceller från den embryonala mushjärnan. Jag har studerat dessa cellers förmåga att växa in vitro (utanför kroppen) samt efter transplantation till hjärnan hos vuxna och nyfödda råttor. Forskning om stamceller har länge varit ett populärt och uppmärksammat forskningsområde, men under de senaste åren har intresset i det närmaIn this thesis we have used cells dissected from the lateral ganglionic eminence (LGE), the medial ganglionic eminence (MGE), and the cortical primordium of the embryonic mouse forebrain. The tissue was dissected from either i) wild-type mice, ii) green fluorescent protein (GFP)-, or iii) Gtv-a-expressing transgenic mice, and subsequently grown and expanded in vitro using two different protocols.

Objective: Evaluate the impotrtance of incomplete gelatinization, food structure and presence of viscous dietary fibre for the postprandial glycaemic and insulinaemic responses to oat and wheat products. Design: Three common breakfast meals were tested, "raw" rolled oats (muesli), boiled rolled oats (oat porridge) and white wheat bread. Boiled intact oat and wheat kernels (kernel porridges) were a

We give a new proof of the Nirenberg-Treves conjecture: that local solvability of principal type pseudodifferential operators is equivalent to condition (Psi). This condition rules out sign changes from - to + of the imaginary part of the principal symbol along the oriented bicharacteristics of the real part. We obtain local solvability by proving a localizable a priori estimate for the adjoint op

Popular Abstract in Swedish Höftfraktur är en vanlig skada, som huvudsakligen drabbar äldre kvinnor, och oftast orsakas av ett ringa våld. Det är vanlig orsak till funktionsnedsättning, sjuklighet och dödlighet hos de äldre. Både incidensen (antal nya fall per antal innevånare och år) av höftfrakturer och det totala antalet har ökat de senaste årtiondena. Höftfrakturer medför stora kostnader för sHip fractures are a common cause of morbidity and mortality in elderly patients, with a high risk of functional impairment and institutionalization. The incidence and number of hip fractures have increased during the recent decades and hip fractures consume considerable health-care resources. The incidence of hip fractures in Malmö, Sweden, 1992–95, is described in Paper I. The annual incidence pe
