GaxIn(1−x)P nanowire arrays are promising for various optoelectronic applications with a tunable band-gap over a wide range. In particular, they are well suited as the top cell in tandem junction solar cell devices. So far, most GaxIn(1−x)P nanowires have been synthesized by the use of trimethylgallium (TMGa). However, particle assisted nanowire growth in metal organic vapor phase epitaxy is typic
In George Town, the capital city of Penang state in Malaysia, Southeast Asia, the creative collectives significantly influence the making of ‘organic space’. This refers to the way in which creative collectives perceive themselves as non-industrialised collaborative groups, employ creativity as the very core of their everyday life, and interact with each other or wider social actors in organic way
Interactions between the police and young people with an immigrant background are well researched internationally and are often discussed in the context of discrimination. Such interactions may explain, at least in part, why these young people do not report crimes to the police when they are the victims of crimes. This article reports accounts from young crime victims who have an immigrant backgro
“Skånes väl”. The scanian regionalists meet the Swedish nationalists. During the past two decades right-wing populist parties have made substantial electoral gains in many West European countries. In Sweden the success of such parties has been limited compared to e.g. Denmark and Norway. In 1998 an electoral coalition of local populist parties, ";Skånes Väl";, in southern Sweden gained 4.1% of the
Social capital and the miniaturisation of community. Social capital has been conceptualized both as a contextual property of communities and as a property of individuals. Two of the building blocks of the notion of social capital are social participation and trust. High levels of social participation and trust are reciprocally reinforcing with two-way causality, according to the literature. Howeve
A method is presented aiming at enabling more holistic flood risk management efforts by accounting for cascading effects that arise in critical infrastructure and vital societal functions in flooding events. The method is under development but shows promise in guiding national, regional and local risk management efforts in Sweden towards flooding events.

To understand the developmental trajectories in early lymphocyte differentiation, we identified differentially expressed surface markers on lineage-negative lymphoid progenitors (LPs). Single-cell polymerase chain reaction experiments allowed us to link surface marker expression to that of lineage-associated transcription factors (TFs) and identify GFRA2 and BST1 as markers of early B cells. Funct

A 44-year-old male presented with multiple punctate acute infarcts of the vertebrobasilar circulation and a computed tomographic angiogram showing stenosis of the right vertebral origin. A digital subtraction angiogram demonstrated a new intraluminal filling defect at the origin of the stenotic vertebral artery where antegrade flow was maintained. This filling defect was accepted to be an acute th
The most frequent type of cerebellar infarcts involved the posterior inferior cerebellar artery (PICA) and superior cerebellar artery territories but bilateral involvement of lateral or medial branches of PICA is extremely rare. In this report, we present a 55-year-old male who admitted to hospital with vomiting, nausea and dizziness. On examination left-sided hemiparesia and ataxic gait were dete
Primary angiitis of the CNS is histopathologically characterized by ischemic lesions and small petechial hemorrhages. Unlike CT or conventional MR imaging, gradient-echo MR imaging depicts these chronic petechial hemorrhages. We herein report the case of biopsy-proved primary angiitis of the CNS in a 42-year-old man; whom gradient-echo MR imaging revealed multiple petechial hemorrhages in the cort
