Proton and Neutron g9/2 Alignments in the N=46 Isotones 86Zr and 87Nb

The magnetic moments of the 8(+) yrast state in Zr-86 and the 17/2(-) and 21/2(+) yrast states in Nb-87 have been measured via the IMPAD technique, The nuclei were produced in the Ni-58(S-32,Xp) reaction; the time-integral Larmor precessions were measured after recoil implantation into a polarised Fe foil. The g-factors are used to deduce the character of the g(9/2) Shell alignments within the sta

Effect of ultraviolet-radiation and leakage of RB-86+ in guard-cells of Vicia-Faba

The effects of UV-C (254 nm), UV-A (365 nm) and broad-band UV (280-380 nm) on guard cells of Vicia faba L. cv. Long Pod were investigated in the presence of white light (450 .mu.mol m-2 s-1). UV-C (7 .mu.mol m-2 s-1) was found to cause leakage of 86Rb+ from guard cells, while UV-A (0.3 .mu.mol m-2 s-1) stimulated increased uptake in these cells. A relatively small stimulatory effect was observed b

Effect of electron correlation on the two-particle dynamics of a helium atom in a strong laser pulse

This review discusses the complicated two-electron dynamics of a helium atom in an intense, short laser pulse. A helium gas in femtosecond laser pulses at long wave lengths (lambda similar to 700 nm) and high intensities (I similar to 10(15) W/cm(2)) produces surprisingly high numbers of He2+ ions. These laser fields cause large and fast electron oscillations, which makes a solution of the time-de

Service transformation - managing a shift from business travel to virtual meetings

It has been shown that the potential for environmental, and financial improvements through the increased substitution of inperson meetings by virtual communication is considerable. However, it has also been shown that this potential is not automatically realized by investing in the technology that can enable virtual meetings. This paper describes two case studies that explored the factors that inf

Palaeoclimate and palaeoceanography of the Skagerrak-Kattegat since the Late Weichselian based on diatom records

Diatoms from the surface sediments and sediments cores in the Skagerrak-Kattegat were analyzed and the results were presented in four papers and discussions. The broad aims of this thesis are twofold. The first aim is to correlate diatom data from the surface sediments to modern sedimentary environments, and try to find out the relationships between environmental variables such as salinity, temper

Expression of adenohypophyseal-hormone receptors in a murine folliculo-stellate cell line

Adenohypophyseal-hormone production is regulated by hypothalamic peptides and target-gland hormones. Additionally, paracrine regulation by folliculo-stellate cells within the pituitary has been suggested. We recently showed TSH receptor expression in human folliculo-stellate cells and speculated that receptors for other adenohypophyseal hormones might also be expressed by folliculo-stellate cells.

A cultivation technique for E-coli fed-batch cultivations operating close to the maximum oxygen transfer capacity of the reactor

A cultivation strategy combining the advantages of temperature-limited fed-batch and probing feeding control is presented. The technique was evaluated in fed-batch cultivations with E. coli BL21(DE3) producing xylanase in a 3 liter bioreactor. A 20% increase in cell mass was achieved and the usual decrease in specific enzyme activity normally observed during the late production phase was diminishe

Controversial significance of early S100B levels after cardiac surgery

BACKGROUND: The brain-derived protein S100B has been shown to be a useful marker of brain injury of different etiologies. Cognitive dysfunction after cardiac surgery using cardiopulmonary bypass has been reported to occur in up to 70% of patients. In this study we tried to evaluate S100B as a marker for cognitive dysfunction after coronary bypass surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass in a model wher

Dynamic modelling of the deformation of a drop in a four-roll mill

The deformation of a drop flowing along the centre streamline of a four-roll mill (4RM) has been investigated. The velocities and elongation rates along the centre streamline in the 4RM were measured using particle tracking velocimetry. The deformation and position of the deforming drops were photographed with a video camera. A dynamic, one-dimensional, analytical simulation model describing the d

Kantor Triple Systems

Popular Abstract in Swedish Avhandlingens huvudsyfte är att studera reella exceptionella Kantortrippelsystem. I första artikeln visar vi först kända resultat i både de reella och komplexa klassiska fallen av K-enkla Kantortrippelsystem. I de reella klassiska fallen ger vår lösning enklare formler. Speciell uppmärksamhet ges till de reella klassiska fallen som är definierade på tensorprodukter av aThe main purpose of this thesis is to study real exceptional Kantor triple systems. In the first paper we first prove the known results in both the real and complex classical cases of K-simple Kantor triple systems. In the real classical case our approach gives somewhat simpler formulas. Special attention is given to all real classical cases of K-simple Kantor triple systems that can be presented

Individual growth in competence

This article presents the second study in a series that has been designed to manifest the emergence of consciousness and to measure developed competence. Its major aim has been to demonstrate that an invariant formulation of the Agent-action-Objective model and an analysis of its A-O kinematics have the capacity to re-produce contour similarity over time. Within the studied evolutionary-developmen

Integrating Management and Engineering Processes in Software Product Development

The intangible nature of software means that traditional processes for managing product development are not sufficiently effective. This, in combination with the increasing share of software in technical products, has had the effect of making it difficult to identify improvement proposals for engineering processes in many cases. This thesis uses both qualitative and quantitative research methods t

Synchronous oscillations of length and stiffness during loaded shortening of frog muscle fibres

A study was made of the damped oscillations in fibre length that are observed when isolated muscle fibres from the frog are released during the plateau of an isometric tetanus to shorten against a constant load (force clamp recording) near the isometric level (temperature, 1.0-11.0 C; initial sarcomere length, 2.25 m). 2. The oscillatory length changes of the whole fibre were associated with simil
