Sleep Patterns and Musical Chairs

Sleep Patterns and Musical Chairs takes the imaginary of the nation state – projecting the patterns that car headlights make on our ceiling at night whilst musical hallucinations of national anthems bleed in through the space. The architecture becomes a part of the piece through these accidental moving highlights that make us think of not being able to sleep whilst pointing towards a fake origin-

What makes the difference? An empirical comparison of critical aspects identified in phenomenographic and variation theory analyses

This study investigated differences and similarities in outcomes of analyses based on phenomenography and variation theory. We used the same data for both analyses to highlight the assumptions of each approach. Participants were 198 students (grades 7–9) who provided written answers to the question ‘What is learning?’. The phenomenographic analysis identified qualitatively different categories rep

In vivo evidence of differential frontal cortex metabolic abnormalities in progressive and relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis

The pathophysiology of progressive multiple sclerosis remains elusive, significantly limiting available disease-modifying therapies. Proton MRS (1 H-MRS) enables in vivo measurement of small molecules implicated in multiple sclerosis, but its application to key metabolites glutamate, γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA), and glutathione has been sparse. We employed, at 7 T, a previously validated 1 H-MRS pr

Roadmap on ferroelectric hafnia- and zirconia-based materials and devices

Ferroelectric hafnium and zirconium oxides have undergone rapid scientific development over the last decade, pushing them to the forefront of ultralow-power electronic systems. Maximizing the potential application in memory devices or supercapacitors of these materials requires a combined effort by the scientific community to address technical limitations, which still hinder their application. Bes

Effects of nonvanishing net charge on balance functions and their integrals

We investigate the impact of nonvanishing net charge in collision systems on measurements of balance functions and their integrals. We show that the nominal balance function definition yields integrals that deviate from unity because of the nonvanishing net charge. However, the integral of unified balance functions is shown to appropriately converge to unity when measured in a sufficiently wide ex

TP53-mediated clonal hematopoiesis confers increased risk for incident atherosclerotic disease

Somatic mutations in blood indicative of clonal hematopoiesis of indeterminate potential (CHIP) are associated with an increased risk of hematologic malignancy, coronary artery disease and all-cause mortality. Here we analyze the relation between CHIP status and incident peripheral artery disease (PAD) and atherosclerosis, using whole-exome sequencing and clinical data from the UK Biobank and the

Tenant Separation on a multi-tenant microservice platform

Axis Communications wishes to investigate their PaaS system, Axis Connected Services(ACX), with regard to separation of the tenants of the platform to ensure the implemented separation technologies are used correctly and to find out whether more separation is necessary. ACX ties together several previously separate services under a single umbrella, with the goal of improving usability and increasi

The Ideal Multilingual Self : Validity, Influences on Motivation, and Role in a Multilingual Education

L2 motivation research has a longstanding monolingual bias. Recently, however, the motivational systems of a multilingual’s different languages have been conceptualized as constituting a multilingual motivational system, and it has been suggested that interactions between the ideal Lx self and the ideal Ly self can lead to the emergence of an ideal multilingual self. While the notion of an ideal m

High-speed 3D imaging of liquid jets, surfaces and respiratory droplets

Sprays are commonly found in, among other, combustion, agriculture and food processing. For each of these applications, the understanding of spray liquid dynamics is crucial for optimization of efficiency, accuracy, and robustness of the spray­-system in use. Sprays are also found as a collection of respiratory droplets ejected when people are speaking, yelling, coughing etc. that is one of the ma

Cultural ‘improvement’, discipline and mining in early modern Sápmi,

This paper explores overlapping of economy and politics with ideology in 17th-century northern Sweden. Focusing on silver mining conducted in Sápmi (Lapland), the paper investigates the rhetoric of mines as arenas of moral and cultural improvement, the ways this rhetoric was expressed and aided by material culture and the ways the civilizing projects were contested by the indigenous Sami, towards

Responsible Disengagement in a High-Risk Context

This thesis delves into the intricate challenges surrounding responsible disengagement in high-risk contexts, exploring its potential to minimize human rights harms resulting from business withdrawal in such settings. The study meticulously scrutinizes legal understandings of high-risk contexts, focusing on defining circumstances where severe human rights impacts are probable, including armed conf

L2 Motivation and Multilingual Identities

By tradition, L2 motivation research has a monolingual bias – the motivational systems of a learner’s different languages conceptualized as separate entities rather than as cognitively interconnected. At a time when multilingualism has become a new world order (Douglas Fir Group, ) and where there is evidence of powerful identity experiences connected to speaking several languages (Pavlenko, ) thi

Matched analysis of circulating selenium with the breast cancer selenotranscriptome: a multicentre prospective study

IntroductionLow serum selenium and altered tumour RNA expression of certain selenoproteins are associated with a poor breast cancer prognosis. Selenoprotein expression stringently depends on selenium availability, hence circulating selenium may interact with tumour selenoprotein expression. However, there is no matched analysis to date.MethodsThis study included 1453 patients with newly diagnosed

Improving the Thresholds of Generalized LDPC Codes With Convolutional Code Constraints

CC-GLPDC codes are a class of generalized low-density parity-check (GLDPC) codes where the constraint nodes (CNs) represent convolutional codes. This allows for efficient decoding in the trellis with the forward-backward algorithm, and the strength of the component codes easily can be controlled by the encoder memory without changing the graph structure. In this letter, we extend the class of CC-G

Att lära av mästarna

Syftet med mitt arbete är att utveckla min egen interpretation av andra satsen i Haydns cellokonsert i C-dur. Genom att systematiskt lyssna på hur ett antal berömda cellister tolkat musiken, genom att jämföra parametrarna tempo, vibrato, dynamik och frasering har jag kunnat upptäcka vissa samband och avvikelser mellan tolkningarna. Med hjälp av denna nya kunskap har det varit möjligt för mig att mThe purpose of this study was to develop my own interpretation of the second movement of Haydn’s cello concerto in C major. By systematically listening to how famous cellists have interpreted this piece, and by comparing the parameters tempo, vibrato, dynamics and phrasing, I have been able to discover certain connections and differences between the interpretations. With help of this knowledge it
