ERC-ESICM guidelines on temperature control after cardiac arrest in adults

The aim of these guidelines is to provide evidence‑based guidance for temperature control in adults who are comatose after resuscitation from either in-hospital or out-of-hospital cardiac arrest, regardless of the underlying cardiac rhythm. These guidelines replace the recommendations on temperature management after cardiac arrest included in the 2021 post-resuscitation care guidelines co-issued b

Transradial versus trans-femoral access site in high-speed rotational atherectomy in Sweden

Background: Radial artery is the preferred access site in contemporary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). However, limited data exist regarding utilization pattern, safety, and long-term efficacy of transradial artery access (TRA) PCI in heavily calcified lesions using high-speed rotational atherectomy (HSRA). Methods: All patients who underwent HSRA-PCI in Sweden between 2005 and 2016 were

Mastering the magnetic susceptibility of magnetically responsive bicelles with 3β-amino-5-cholestene and complexed lanthanide ions

The magnetic susceptibility of lanthanide-chelating bicelles was selectively enhanced by introducing 3β-amino-5-cholestene (aminocholesterol, Chol-NH2) in the bilayer. Unprecedented magnetic alignment of the bicelles was achieved without altering their size. An aminocholesterol conjugate (Chol-C2OC2-NH2), in combination with different lanthanide ions, offers the possibility of fine-tuning the bice

First layer water phases on anatase TiO2(101)

The anatase TiO2(101) surface and its interaction with water is an important topic in oxide surface chemistry. Firstly, it benchmarks the properties of the majority facet of TiO2 nanoparticles and, secondly, there is a controversy as to whether the water molecule adsorbs intact or deprotonates. We have addressed the adsorption of water on anatase TiO2(101) by synchrotron radiation photoelectron sp

The influence of CO adsorption on the surface composition of cobalt/palladium alloys

Segregation induced by the adsorption of gas phase species can strongly influence the composition of bimetallic surfaces and can therefore play an important role in influencing heterogeneous catalytic reactions. The addition of palladium to cobalt catalysts has been shown to promote Fischer Tropsch catalysis. We investigate the adsorption of CO onto bimetallic CoPd surfaces on Pd{111} using a comb

Moving away from the throwaway society : Five policy instruments for extending the life of consumer durables

The majority of all environmental impacts can be linked to our consumption. As real wages increase, so does consumption levels – more holiday trips, more clothing purchases, faster replacement of products for newer versions,etc. This trend poses a threat to the state of our planet. While the Nordic countries are high in the overall rankings of achieving the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals, they

InN quantum dots on GaN nanowires grown by MOVPE

In this work, growth of InN quantum dots (QDs) on GaN nanowires (NWs) by metal-organic vapour phase epitaxy is demonstrated, illustrating the feasibility to combine 0D and 1D structures for nitride semiconductors. Selective area growth was used to generate arrays of c-oriented GaN NWs using Si3N4 as the mask material. In general, InN QDs tend to form at the NW edges between the m-plane side facets

Strong enrichment of atmospherically relevant organic ions at the aqueous interface : The role of ion pairing and cooperative effects

Surface affinity, orientation and ion pairing are investigated in mixed and single solute systems of aqueous sodium hexanoate and hexylammonium chloride. The surface sensitive X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy technique has been used to acquire the experimental results, while the computational data have been calculated using molecular dynamics simulations. By comparing the single solute solutions w

Electron spectroscopy of ionic liquids : Experimental identification of atomic orbital contributions to valence electronic structure

The atomic contributions to valence electronic structure for 37 ionic liquids (ILs) are identified using a combination of variable photon energy XPS, resonant Auger electron spectroscopy (RAES) and a subtraction method. The ILs studied include a diverse range of cationic and anionic structural moieties. We introduce a new parameter for ILs, the energy difference between the energies of the cationi

Geometric effects in random assemblies of ellipses

Assemblies of anisotropic particles commonly appear in studies of active many-body systems. However, in two dimensions, the geometric ramifications of the finite density of such objects are not entirely understood. To fully characterize these effects, we perform an in-depth study of random assemblies generated by a slow compression of frictionless elliptical particles. The obtained configurations

Investigating the influence of relativistic effects on absorption spectra for platinum complexes with light-activated activity against cancer cells

We report the first systematic investigation of relativistic effects on the UV-vis spectra of two prototype complexes for so-called photo-activated chemotherapy (PACT), trans-trans-trans-[Pt(N3)2(OH)2(NH3)2] and cis-trans-cis-[Pt(N3)2(OH)2(NH3)2]. In PACT, design of new drugs requires in-depth understanding of the photo-activation mechanisms. A first step is usually to rationalize their UV-vis spe

A map of D/H on Mars in the thermal infrared using EXES aboard SOFIA

On a planetary scale, the D/H ratio on Mars is a key diagnostic for understanding the past history of water on the planet; locally, it can help to constrain the sources and sinks of water vapor through the monitoring of condensation and sublimation processes. To obtain simultaneous measurements of H2O and HDO lines, we have used the Echelle Cross Echelle Spectrograph (EXES) instrument aboard the S

Avveckla köp-och-slängsamhället : Fem politiska styrmedel för ökad livslängd hos konsumentprodukter

Huvuddelen av all miljöpåverkan kan kopplas till vår konsumtion. I takt med att reallönerna ökar så ökar också konsumtionen – fler semesterresor, fler klädinköp, snabbare utbyte av produkter mot nyare versioner och så vidare. Denna utveckling utgör ett hot mot planetens tillstånd. I arbetetmed FN:s hållbarhetsmål ligger de nordiska länderna högt i den allmänna rankingen, men när det gäller delmål

Accurate multiconfiguration calculations of energy levels, lifetimes, and transition rates for the silicon isoelectronic sequence : Ti IX - Ge XIX, Sr XXV, Zr XXVII, Mo XXIX

Multiconfiguration Dirac-Hartree-Fock (MCDHF) calculations and relativistic configuration interaction (RCI) calculations are performed for states of the 3s23p2, 3s3p3 and 3s23p3d configurations in the Si-like ions Ti IX - Ge XIX, Sr XXV, Zr XXVII and Mo XXIX. Valence and core-valence electron correlation effects are accounted for through large configuration state function expansions. Calculated en
