A recent theoretical model by Andersson et al. proposes that soft gluons order themselves in the form of a helix at the end of the QCD cascades. The Authors of the model present a measure of the rapidity-azimuthal angle correlation, which they call screwiness. We searched for such a signal in DELPHI data, and found no evidence for screwiness.

This thesis deals with the dynamical processes in atoms and small molecules initiated by the absorption of ultrashort, coherent light pulses. The studied phenomena takeplace on the femtosecond (1 fs = 10−15 s) and attosecond (1 as = 10−18 s) timescales and critically depend on the properties of the light fields that drive them. Wework with infrared (IR) femtosecond laser pulses, which we manipulat

The effect of the conformational state of the polymer coil on the properties of protein-polymer conjugates has been studied for the conjugates of antibody (monoclonal antibody from 6C5 clone against inactivated rabbit muscle glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase; Ab) with poly(methacrylic acid) (PMAA) or poly-(acrylic acid) (PAA). The pH-dependencies of molecular properties and structural param

Ion exchange membranes (IEMs) have consolidated applications in energy conversion and storage systems, like fuel cells and battery separators. Moreover, in the perspective to address the global need for non-carbon-based and renewable energies, salinity-gradient power (SGP) harvesting by reverse electrodialysis (RED) is attracting significant interest in recent years. In particular, brine solutions

The interpretation of x-ray emission spectroscopy (XES) spectra in terms of their sensitivity to the hydrogen bonding and the consequent microheterogeneity in liquid water has been debated over a decade. To shed a light on this problem, we report the theoretical reproduction of the debated 1b_{1} peaks observed in the XES spectra of liquid water using semiclassical Kramers-Heisenberg formula. The

Interactions between colloidal particles can be modelled by particles grafted with polymers. In this work, structural and physical properties of colloids are investigated under variation of parameters such as pH, ionic strength, and temperature, where aggregation and cluster formation can be monitored in aqueous solution. Being the subject of our work, in particular, we show that linear or polymer

I samband med Hovrätten över Skåne och Blekinges 200-årsjubileum har jag tillsammans med hovrätten tagit fram en utställning som finns både fysiskt i hovrättens lokaler i Malmö och digitalt.

A simulation study of a new Cherenkov detector for the NA44 experiment is presented. Different positions and configurations of the counter are evaluated. The best particle identification is achieved with a CaF2 window and with the chamber placed in front of hodoscope 3 (H3).

SPECLUST is a web tool for hierarchical clustering of peptide mass spectra obtained from protease-digested proteins. Mass spectra are clustered according to the peptide masses they contain, such that mass spectra containing similar masses are clustered together. Hierarchical clustering of mass spectra with SPECLUST can in particular be useful for MS-screening of large proteomic data sets derived f

Temporally resolved assessment of residential exposure to radon is essential for investigating radon's acute health effects. Recent studies have used large numbers of short-term radon measurements to model the spatiotemporal variations in radon concentrations. However, most short-term radon measurements in the northeastern and midwestern United States were conducted in the basements, which were le

Cerebellar dysfunction after traumatic brain injury (TBI) is commonly suspected based on clinical symptoms, although cerebellar pathology has rarely been investigated. To address the hypothesis that the cerebellar axon-myelin unit is altered by diffuse TBI, we used the central fluid percussion injury (cFPI) model in adult mice to create widespread axonal injury by delivering the impact to the fore

Classification of expression profiles to predict disease characteristics of for example cancer is a common application in high-throughput gene and protein expression research. Cross-validation is often used to optimize design of classifiers, with the aim to construct an optimal single classifier. In this work, we explore if classification performance can be improved by aggregating classifiers into

To understand better the role of endothelin-1 (ET-1) in the pathogenesis of primary Raynaud's phenomenon (PRP), we investigated the basal ET-1 plasma levels and changes after whole-body cooling in healthy women and those with PRP. The study was performed as an open parallel-group comparison during the month of February. The Raynaud group included 21 female patients (mean age 45.3 years, range 21-5

This article examines the records of the so-called homo-sex commission—a part of the municipal Stockholm police force dedicated to the policing of male same-sex practices—as a case study of the role of policing in shaping historical understandings of homosexuality. Building on a series of documents left by the commission and high-ranking police officers, from memoranda describing the nature of hom

Leucine-rich repeats and immunoglobulin-like domains (LRIG) proteins have been implicated as regulators of growth factor signaling; however, the possible redundancy among mammalian LRIG1, LRIG2, and LRIG3 has hindered detailed elucidation of their physiological functions. Here, we show that Lrig-null mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEFs) are deficient in adipogenesis and bone morphogenetic protein (B
