Om Sturemorden 1567

The great chemist Glenn Seaborg has written a delightful little book "Man-made Transuranium Elements", published in 1963, in which he points out that: "The former basic criterion for the discovery of a new element - namely, chemical identification and separation from all previously-known elements - had to be changed in the case of lawrencium (element 103). This also may be true for elements beyond

The focus of this work is to characterize the mechanical stresses and fatigue along the enameled wire due to thermal expansion. The stresses and fatigue is estimated for a single wire and as a function of evenly distributed temperature. The estimation is based on both analytical equations and 3D Finite Element (FE) model. This characterization of mechanical stresses and fatigue is then used to exa

Clear Cell Renal Cell Carcinoma (CCRCC) is a lethal cancer with bad prognosis due to development of chemoresistance and recurrence of more aggressive tumors. Investigation of Gas6-mediated Axl signaling in CCRCC and endothelial cells reveals a Sunitinib resistant Gas6-Axl signaling that is sustained and enhanced and specifically triggers downstream AKT and PRAS40 activation in an intensified manne

Part I of the study presents the importance and the analytical and numerical methods to perform a thermal- mechanical stress simulation with evenly distributed temperature for single wires. Part II of the study presents a method with thermal and mechanical conjugated simulations with unevenly distributed temperature for multiple wires and the results are compared to the structural simulation with

The new forms of communication facilitated by the IT revolution have provided followers of various interpretations of Islam to participate in the newly opened public spheres. More and more Muslims find it possible to choose among these competing authorities and to select a suitable fatwa, to solve problems of everyday life and to smooth adjustments to living in the new environments. IT revolution

This study examines the factors that have shaped the long-term evolution of the ICT industry in Sweden, 1950-2013. Exploiting a new historical micro-database on actual innovation output, the driving forces and technological interdependencies in the third industrial revolution are chronicled. The results of this study support some stylized facts about innovational interdependencies in general-purpo

To what extent have public policies contributed to the innovation performance of Finland and Sweden in the period 1970-2013? This paper aims to assess the share of innovations stimulated by the public sector, specifically because of receiving public funding or being the result of research collaboration with public institutions. We combine survey and LBIO results on these variables, to overcome rep

Integration of non-dispatchable renewable energy sources such as wind and solar into the grid is challenging due to the stochastic nature of energy sources. Hence, electrical hubs (EH) and virtual power plants that combine non-dispatchable energy sources, energy storage and dispatchable energy sources such as internal combustion generators and micro gas turbines are getting popular. However, desig

BACKGROUND: Enzymatic hydrolysis of lignocellulose is associated with mixing issues, which are likely to affect process performance. The aim of this study was to investigate how viscosity and sugar inhibition influence the mixing-dependence in hydrolysis of steam-pretreated spruce. RESULTS: The effect of agitation on low-viscosity, low-solid hydrolysis (5% water insoluble solid (WIS)) was marginal

A novel electron deficient 4,6-bis(trifluoromethyl)-1,3-phenylene diphosphinite ligand 4 was developed and synthesized. Reaction of Ir precursors with ligand 4 gave chloro(hydride) pincer complex 5, which demonstrated a higher TON in alkane dehydrogenation reactions compared to similar phosphinite based pre-catalysts. The formation of cyclooctene (COE) and tert-butylethylene adducts of the 14e cat
