In order to reveal the nature of dark matter, it is crucial to detect its non-gravitational interactions with the standard model particles. The traditional dark matter searches focused on the so-called weakly interacting massive particles. However, this paradigm is strongly constrained by the null results of current experiments with high precision. Therefore there is a renewed interest of searches

The Primeiras and Segundas archipelagos are a string of coralline islands in northern Mozambique. The presence of upwelling, clockwise and anticlockwise eddies, and the influence of Zambezi river’s discharge result in nutrient and biodiversity dispersion along the coastline and a connection between Mozambique’s southern and northern reef systems. The fringing spur and groove reef structure and rel

Public intellectuals were once honest and knowledgeable academics who engaged in critical debate and spoke truth to power, but seem today rather to be celebrities who make vast amounts of money from selling an oversimplified message to policymakers and the public. This chapter discusses the role of the new public intellectuals for the rise of oversimplified and misguided innovation policy, both in

Despite abundant knowledge about the relationship between inflammation and coronary atherosclerosis, it is still unknown whether systemic inflammation measured as high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hsCRP) is associated with coronary atherosclerosis in a general population. This study aimed to examine the association between hsCRP and coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA)-detected coron

Many retail chains believe that the personal service encounter is the solution to declining sales figures. Via a large-scale study of Swedish fashion consumers, we demonstrate, that this may not necessarily be the case. We argue that retailers can potentially save money and convert more customers by providing a more automated journey, which includes self-service technologies, for some customers, a

INTRODUCTION: In recent years, the field of graft preservation has made considerable strides in improving outcomes related to solid organ restoration and regeneration. Ex vivo lung perfusion (EVLP) in line with the related devices and treatments has yielded promising results within preclinical and clinical studies, with the potential to improve graft quality. Its main benefit is to render marginal

As political leaders gather for a second conference at the European Parliament on how to move “beyond growth”, we, the undersigned academics and civil society organisations, see the geopolitical crisis as an opportunity to disengage from the socially and ecologically harmful growth competition and instead embrace a wellbeing cooperation.

Kort historisk betraktelse över domkyrkan som lokal för universitetets promotioner med fokus dels på inslaget av anspelningar på antik mytologi, dels på varför promotionerna under ett drygt halvsekel flyttades till andra lokaler.

Syftet med den här studien är att visa att den myndigheten som studeras är en rationell byråkratisk organisation som disciplinerar sina medarbetare till fogliga anställda som kan kontrolleras och övervakas. Nyckelord i studien är byråkrati, beteende och disciplinering. Det är en kvalitativ studie som använder sig av observationer och intervjuer för insamling av empiriska materialet. Observationen

Objective To assess the contemporary prevalence of, and factors associated with angina pectoris symptoms, and to examine the relationship to coronary atherosclerosis in a middle-aged, general population. Methods Data were based on the Swedish CArdioPulmonary bioImage Study (SCAPIS), in which 30 154 individuals were randomly recruited from the general population between 2013 and 2018. Participants

In this work, we present the fabrication and analysis of fully-vertical GaN FinFETs with a gate length of 550 nm. The devices with fin widths of around 100 nm reveal normally- OFF behavior and subthreshold swings (SSs) very close to the 60-mV/dec limit. Low hysteresis values indicate low defect densities at the oxide/GaN interface. The devices exhibit low specific ON-resistances at a maximum of ar

When developing tools for automated cortical segmentation, the ability to produce topologically correct segmentations is important in order to compute geometrically valid morphometry measures. In practice, accurate cortical segmentation is challenged by image artifacts and the highly convoluted anatomy of the cortex itself. To address this, we propose a novel deep learning-based cortical segmentat

We investigate how selection of psychiatric cases by phenotypic criteria can alter the strength and specificity of their genetic risk by examining samples from national Swedish registries for five disorders: major depression (MD, N = 158,557), drug use disorder (DUD, N = 69,841), bipolar disorder (BD, N = 13,530)) ADHD (N = 54,996) and schizophrenia (N = 11,227)). We maximized the family genetic r

Objectives: We examined the temporal changes of the CSF proteome in patients with herpes simplex encephalitis (HSE) during the course of the disease, in relation to anti-N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor (NMDAR) serostatus, corticosteroid treatment, brain MRI and neurocognitive performance. Methods: Patients were retrospectively included from a previous prospective trial with a pre-specified CSF sampl
