A novel rhodium(iii) complex [RhIII(H2LtBu)Cl3] (1) (H2LtBu = 2,6-bis(5-tert-butyl-1H-pyrazol-3-yl)pyridine) containing a pincer type, tridentate nitrogen-donor chelate system was synthesized. Single crystal X-ray structure analysis revealed that 1 crystallizes in the orthorhombic space group Pbcn with a = 20.7982(6), b = 10.8952(4), c = 10.9832(4) Å, V = 2488.80(15) Å3, and eight molecules in the

The Mesozoic biotas of Scandinavia have been studied for nearly two centuries. However, the last 15 years have witnessed an explosive advance in research, most notably on the richly fossiliferous Triassic (Olenekian-Carnian) and Jurassic (Tithonian) Lagerstätten of the Norwegian Arctic Svalbard archipelago, Late Cretaceous (Campanian) Kristianstad Basin and Vomb Trough of Skåne in southern Sweden,

Interest in precision diagnostics has been fuelled by the concept that early detection of cancer would benefit patients; that is, if detected early, more tumours should be resectable and treatment more efficacious. Serum contains massive amounts of potentially diagnostic information, and affinity proteomics has risen as an accurate approach to decipher this, to generate actionable information that

The first Team Haemophilia Education (THE) Meeting was held on 7–8 May 2015 in Amsterdam, The Netherlands. It aimed to promote the optimal care of patients with haemophilia through education of the multidisciplinary treatment team. This was achieved by reviewing the latest developments in haemophilia management, considering how these can be implemented in the clinic to improve patient care and pro

In modern business, standards are too important to be ignored. But what is the rationale for active engagement in long and costly standardization processes when most of those standards will be openly available for a much lower price once they are finalized? What are the strategic motives for engaging in such processes? And even when the motives are clear, how is corporate standardization managed,

The “subsumption of nature” framework focuses on productivity increases and extractive innovations in nature-based industries. In this article, we argue that it can also be employed beyond that context in order to capture the convoluted dynamics of market environmentalism. To substantiate our argument, we draw on recent fieldwork on “Trees for Global Benefits,” a forestry-based offsetting project

Unlike the discrete magnet scheme of previous 3rd generation light sources, the magnet elements of the MAX IV storage rings are integrated in precision-machined magnet blocks. By analyzing the rotating coil measurements made by the magnet suppliers, we determined the relative alignment between consecutive magnet elements, which was foundto be

The magnet design of the MAX IV 3 GeV storage ring replaces the conventional support girder + discrete magnets scheme of previous third-generation synchrotron radiation light sources with a compact (Ø25 mm aperture) integrated design having several consecutive magnet elements precision-machined out of a common solid iron block. The production series of 140 integrated magnet block units, which was

An extended Kalman-Yakubovich-Popov Lemma for positive systems is proved, which generalizes earlier versions in several respects: Non-strict inequalities are treated. Matrix assumptions are less restrictive. Moreover, a new equivalence is introduced in terms of linear programming rather than semi-definite programming. As a complement, we also prove that a symmetric Metzler matrix with rn non-zero

Many small farmland ponds are built for nutrient retention, the conservation of biodiversity or both, yet they are relatively neglected habitats. For example, little is known about the potential for ponds to influence populations of beneficial terrestrial insects, deliver ecosystem services across the aquatic-terrestrial boundary and affect crop yield in insect-pollinated cash crops.We assessed wh

The complete rotational CARS (coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering) spectrum of ethane (C2H6) has for the first time been recorded instantaneously under high spectral resolution, and the potential for thermometry has been investigated. Experiments were performed in the temperature range 292-650K in pure ethane and in binary mixtures with nitrogen. A polarization technique was used to suppress the

A three-dimensional (3D) direct numerical simulation (DNS) of an experimental turbulent premixed jet flame at high Karlovitz number was studied. The DNS resolution adequately resolves both the flame and turbulence structures. A reduced chemical mechanism for premixed CH4/air flames with NOx based on GRI-Mech3.0 was used, including 268 elementary reactions, and 28 transported species. Consistent po

Objective: To assess the trend of sex disparity in hemoglobin concentration and prevalence of anemia among Chinese school-aged children from 1995 to 2010. Study design: Data were collected from 360 866 children aged 7, 9, 12, 14, and 17 years during 4 cross-sectional surveys (1995, 2000, 2005, and 2010) of the Chinese National Surveys on Students Constitution and Health. Shifts in hemoglobin conce

In the Fall of 1977, The Institute of Economics at the University of Lund arranged a symposium on the theoretical contributions of Knut Wicksell and the subsequent development of his ideas by other theorists. The symposium was financed by the Arne Ryde Foundation. The aim of the symposium was to examine the effects of Wicksell's ideas on the development of economic theory and to discuss the assert
