We characterized particulate emissions from vegetation fires by burning Indonesian and German peat and other biomass fuels in a controlled laboratory setting. By measuring cloud condensation nuclei (CCN) both as a function of particle diameter (dp) and supersaturation (S), we discovered particles in peat smoke that were not activated to cloud droplets at high S (1.6%). These hydrophobic particles
Mycket av den digitala datainsamlingen av personers information sker utan att konsumenterna är medvetna om det eller ens har någon praktisk möjlighet att påverka. Detta får direkta konsekvenser för konkurrensens förutsättningar, men aktualiserar också frågan om hur dataskydd, konkurrens och det bredare konsumentskyddet förhåller sig till varandra och, i förlängningen hur de olika tillsynsmyndighet
Biomarkers are used in molecular biology to predict characteristics of interest and are applied in agriculture to accelerate the breeding of target traits. Proteomics has emerged as a promising technology for improved markers by providing a closer view to the phenotype than conventional genome-based approaches. However, a major challenge for biomarker development is that the identified biological
During the last decade the link between religion and right-wing populism has been underlined by scholars, viewing the latter as a form of ‘religious backlash’ and encouraging progressives to fight back. However, by setting the religious against the secular, these arguments, paradoxically, have contributed to the development of populism—by enforcing what Ryszard Bobrowicz and Johanna Gustafsson Lun
Specialnummer av Statsvetenskaplig tidskrift med artiklar och litteraturgranskningar om det exceptionella USA.Special edition of Journal of Political Science on the theme The exceptional America then and now.
Inledningskapitel till temanummer av Statvetenskaplig tidskrift om amerikansk exceptionalism då och nu.Introduction to American exceptionalism.
This article deals with uses of history and the combination of politics and the past from an American point of view. On one hand, the time span is long, with references dating back to Roman history, the war of independence and more recent events as the Vietnam War. On the other hand, it is interpretations of history here and now that are is analyzed. Another point of departure is different histori
Structural health monitoring systems have been widely implemented to provide real-time continuous data support and to ensure structural safety in the context of structural integrity management. However, the quantification of the potential benefits of structural health monitoring systems has not yet attracted widespread attention. At the same time, there is an urgent need to develop strategies, suc
(1) BackgroundResearch and user experience suggests both positive and negative social impacts resulting from practices in the sharing economy: social cohesion vs. gentrification; inclusiveness vs. discrimination; flexible employment vs. exploitation. However, as yet, there is no framework for understanding or assessing these social impacts holistically.(2) ObjectiveWe aim to improve understanding
This thesis is focused on two globally prevalent diseases: i) non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and ii) type 2 diabetes (T2D), with an overall aim of improving prediction and causal inference in the context of these conditions. Our projects were mainly conducted using IMI DIRECT and UK Biobank datasets including multi-omics data, extensive environmental exposures, and biological intermedia
The movement of DOM from terrestrial to aquatic systems is a globally significant flux affecting both carbon sequestration and CO2 emissions. Here, DOM dynamics were investigated in terrestrial and aquatic systems within the context of this carbon flux. The overall aim was to investigate the source and chemistry of DOM and determine how chemistry is affected by microbial processing of DOM. In the
The inclusive J/ψ elliptic (v2) and triangular (v3) flow coefficients measured at forward rapidity (2.5 < y < 4) and the v2 measured at midrapidity (|y| < 0.9) in Pb-Pb collisions at sNN = 5.02 TeV using the ALICE detector at the LHC are reported. The entire Pb-Pb data sample collected during Run 2 is employed, amounting to an integrated luminosity of 750 μb−1 at forward rapidity and 93 μb−1 at mi
The measurement of the azimuthal-correlation function of prompt D mesons with charged particles in pp collisions at s=5.02TeV and p–Pb collisions at sNN=5.02TeV with the ALICE detector at the LHC is reported. The D , D +, and D ∗ + mesons, together with their charge conjugates, were reconstructed at midrapidity in the transverse momentum interval 3
A search for new-physics resonances decaying into a lepton and a jet performed by the ATLAS experiment is presented. Scalar leptoquarks pair-produced in pp collisions at s = 13 TeV at the Large Hadron Collider are considered using an integrated luminosity of 139 fb−1, corresponding to the full Run 2 dataset. They are searched for in events with two electrons or two muons and two or more jets, incl
This paper presents a search for new heavy particles decaying into a pair of top quarks using 139 fb−1 of proton-proton collision data recorded at a centre-of-mass energy of s = 13 TeV with the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider. The search is performed using events consistent with pair production of high-transverse-momentum top quarks and their subsequent decays into the fully hadronic f
Background: Activation delay in ischemic myocardium has been found to contribute to J-wave appearance and to predict ventricular fibrillation (VF) in experimental myocardial infarction. However, the role of ischemia-related repolarization abnormalities in J-wave generation remains unclear. Objectives: The objective of our study was to assess a contribution of myocardial repolarization changes to J
In situ CO2 and CO measurements from five Integrated Carbon Observation System (ICOS) atmosphere stations have been analysed together with footprint model runs from the regional Stochastic Time-Inverted Lagrangian Transport (STILT) model to develop a dedicated strategy for flask sampling with an automated sampler. Flask sampling in ICOS has three different purposes, namely (1) to provide an indepe
