Attosecond delays in photoionization : A theoretical perspective

A new generation of sources of XUV harmonic radiation, delivering 'attosecond' pulses, makes feasible to investigate photoionization in the time domain, with unprecedented resolution. Here, we discuss theoretical aspects related to this new class of experiments.

Sources of eicosanoid precursor fatty acid pools in tissues

Tissue arachidonic acid (AA) pools originate from the diet, and from hepatic and extrahepatic desaturation-elongation of dietary linoleic acid (LA). This review summarizes the roles of absorption, transport, and formation of AA in the buildup of tissue AA pools. In humans who ingest 0.2-0.3 g of AA and 10-20 g of LA per day on a Western diet, the formation of AA from LA exceeds the dietary supply

Effects of Organic Farming on Biodiversity

Changes in farming practices over the past century have had negative influence on farmland biodiversity. Organic farming excludes most agrochemicals, such as inorganic fertilisers and synthetic pesticides, and can be an alternative to conventional farming. A recent meta-analysis indicates that there is on average 30% higher species richness on organically managed farmland compared to conventionall

Screening effects in multielectron ionization of heavy atoms in intense laser fields

Multielectron ionization of Xe is described in terms of multistep processes, driven by a laser field which is screened by the motion of the outer 5p shell. In stepwise multiple ionization of the 5p shell, screening is successively reduced. The effective, local intensity will therefore increase during the stripping of the outer shell. In the 4d inner-shell region the effective intensity is very low

Normative Transmission and Necessary Means

This paper focuses on the interaction of reasons and argues that reasons for an action may transmit to the necessary means of that action. Analyzing exactly how this phenomenon may be captured by principles governing normative transmission has proved an intricate task in recent years. In this paper, I assess three formulations focusing on normative transmission and necessary means: Ought Necessity

A synthesis of animal movement across scales

This chapter aims at synthesizing the knowledge presented in the chapters of the book’s three sections by addressing evolutionary compromises, dispersal, gene flow, and assisted movements. How climate change and other environmental changes at different scales may affect animal movement, migration, and dispersal in the future are also summarized here. Moreover, how the different senses are utilized

Obstetric and perinatal outcomes in pregnancies complicated by diabetes, and control pregnancies, in Kronoberg, Sweden

Background: Diabetes during pregnancy is an increasingly common metabolic disorder, associated with significantly increased risks for both mother and child. Aim of this study was to compare maternal and perinatal outcomes in women with pregestational (PDM) type 1 (T1DM), type 2 diabetes (T2DM), gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) and compare these to pregnancies not complicated with diabetes. This

Individually addressable double quantum dots formed with nanowire polytypes and identified by epitaxial markers

Double quantum dots (DQDs) hold great promise as building blocks for quantum technology as they allow for two electronic states to coherently couple. Defining QDs with materials rather than using electrostatic gating allows for QDs with a hard-wall confinement potential and more robust charge and spin states. An unresolved problem is how to individually address these QDs, which is necessary for co
