The gallium spectrum emitted from a hollow cathode has been recorded in the region 500-9800 A. 142 lines have been classified as transitions in Ga II. Energy levels have been derived from the observations, and perturbations within the n = 4 configuration complex are discussed. Besides the previously known mixing between 4s4d and 4p2, it has been found that the structure of 4s4/is strongly affected

Det sista bidraget i den här samlingen behandlar hur man kommenterat på pandemin i realtid i den svenska serietidningen Herman Hedning. Jakob Löfgren diskuterar i sitt bidrag till denna volym, hur Jonas Darnell i sin värld reagerat på den vardagliga frustration som Covid-19 fört med sig, en frustration som vi (kanske) alla känt.

BACKGROUND: The aim of this study was to evaluate the feasibility and efficacy of a modified delivery system of the distal bifurcated FEVAR component where the dilator tip was shortened to prevent damage to the renovisceral bridging stents.METHODS: All consecutive patients from a tertiary referral center that underwent a FEVAR with a custom delivery system of the distal bifurcated endograft with a

BACKGROUND: Previous research has shown that Common Mental Disorders (CMD) are unequally distributed between population subgroups, but we know less about how labour outcomes following such disorders are distributed. Our aim is to investigate how the labour outcomes following a CMD diagnosis differ over sex, age, schooling and country of birth.METHODS: We use a population sample from southern Swede

This article examines the materiality of the Ghost Dance shirt – ógle wakȟáŋ kiŋ – among the Lakota, and its associated symbols and functions. By cross-referencing sources on the Ghost Dance to sources on traditional Lakota belief and ritual, it is shown that the practice of interrituality – the use of established ritual elements and acts in novel contexts – enabled traditional ritual dynamics and

Phytochemicals have been used as one of the sources for the development of anti-obesity drugs. Plants are rich in a variety of bioactive compounds including polyphenols, saponins and terpenes. Phytochemicals inhibit adipocyte differentiation by inhibiting the transcription and translation of adipogenesis transcription factors such as C/EBPα and PPARγ. It has been proved that phytochemicals inhibit

We report accurate in-situ optical measurements of surface temperature, volatile gas temperature, and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) emission over the whole burning history of individual biomass pellets in various combustion atmospheres. Two biomass fuels, wood and straw, were prepared in cylindrical pellets of ~300 mg. The pellets were burned in a well-controlled combustion atmosphere prov

Background: European treatment guidelines recommend prasugrel over ticagrelor for treating patients with non–ST-elevation acute coronary syndrome (ACS), prompting several Swedish administrative regions to transition from ticagrelor to prasugrel as the preferred treatment for patients with ACS. We aim to systematically evaluate this transition to determine the relative efficacy of prasugrel versus

AbstractPurpose: To evaluate the impact of cava balloon occlusion on the myocardium during endovascular repair of thoracic aortic pathologies.Material and methods: A prospective observational cohort study of 21 patients who underwent endovascular repair of aortic arch and thoracic aorta in a single tertiary referral center with use of inferior vena cava (IVC) balloon occlusion as a method of intra

Objectives: This study aims to test the feasibility of the Fracture and Mortality Risk Evaluation (FAME) Index. Patients and methods: Two academic centers in Lithuania and Turkey participated in this retrospective study conducted between November 2018 and July 2019. A total of 100 consecutive patients (22 males, 78 females; mean age 78.9 years; range, 45 to 100 years) with low energy proximal femu

Answering the key challenges for society due to environmental issues like climate change, pollution and loss of biodiversity, and making the right decisions to tackle these in a cost-efficient and sustainable way requires scientific understanding of the Earth System. This scientific knowledge can then be used to inform the general public and policymakers. Scientific understanding starts with havin

Remote sensing has evolved to become a key tool for various fields of environmental analysis, thus actively informing policy across areas and domains. To evaluate the degree to which remote sensing is contributing to the science of ecologically-oriented urban planning, we carried out a systematic literature review using the SCOPUS database, searching for articles integrating knowledge in urban pla

Context:: Software-intensive organizations’ rationale for sharing Open Source Software (OSS) may be driven by both idealistic, strategic and commercial objectives, and include both monetary as well as non-monetary benefits. To gain the potential benefits, an organization may need to consider what they share and how, while taking into account risks, costs and other complexities. Objective:: This st

We propose a consensus definition of "an exaggerated orthostatic pressor response" in subjects in whom systolic blood pressure increases ≥ 20 mmHg when going from supine to standing posture. This definition can be extended for seated to standing measurements. We reserve the term "orthostatic hypertension" for when this pressor response leads to an upright systolic blood pressure ≥ 140 mmHg. We bel

The current study examines whether there is a connection between Swedish L2 students' L1 and their spelling in Swedish.The data were collected through a spelling test conducted at SFI course levels C and D. The experiment was conducted in an urban area in Småland in three groups consisting of 37 course participants with 12 different L1s. People with Arabic as their L1 are the focus of the study du

PURPOSE: Photoacoustic (PA) imaging has the potential to become a non-invasive diagnostic tool for giant cell arteritis, as shown in pilot experiments on seven patients undergoing surgery. Here, we present a detailed evaluation of the safety regarding visual function and patient tolerability in healthy subjects, and define the spectral signature in the healthy temporal artery.METHODS: Photoacousti

Techniques for accurate, robust and efficient over-the-air testing for devices in the next generation communication system are important. This work aims at presenting the use of an aperture calibration technique, through which field values and power density values are reconstructed at an arbitrary plane in the near-field from a measurement of a separate plane for devices operating in 28-60 GHz.
