High spin states in 127La have been studied using the 32S(100Mo,p4n) reaction at a beam energy of 155 MeV. Gamma rays were detected using the EUROBALL III spectrometer. One of the side bands in 127La is observed to be populated to a spin of 83/2+. These data are compared with cranked Nilsson-Strutinski calculations which suggest that the structure is a smoothly terminating band, in valence space,

Excited states have been identified in the very neutron-deficient 119Ba nucleus. Two bands have been observed, which are likely to be based on h11/2 and (g7/2d5/2) neutron orbitals. Despite this being the first observation of excited states in 119Ba, the bands extend to (75/2)ℏ and (79/2)ℏ, respectively. The bands have been assigned to 119Ba using gamma-recoil and gamma-x-ray coincidences. Several

In atrial fibrillation (AF), the ECG P-wave, which represents atrial depolarization, is replaced with chaotic and irregular fibrillation waves (f waves). The f-wave frequency, F f, shows significant variations over time. Cardiorespiratory interactions regulated by the autonomic nervous system have been suggested to play a role in such variations. We conducted a simulation study to test whether t

Second harmonic generation is popular due to its numerous applications in different technologies dealing with multiple fields of science. The rapid technical advancement with the second harmonic generation demands parallel development in the theoretical understanding. With this view in mind, in our three papers, we theoretically investigated second harmonic generation from different systems in an

High-spin states in the near proton-dripline nucleus 107Sb have been identified, and collectivity in this nucleus has been observed for the first time in the form of two rotational bands. One of the observed rotational structures is a ΔI = 1 band, and is interpreted as based on a π(g9/2)-1 ⊗ π(g7/2d5/2)2 proton configuration. A second structure has ΔI = 2 character, and is explained as being based

High-spin states of 98,99,100Ru have been populated using the reaction 70Zn(36S, αxn) at 130 MeV. The γ rays have been detected with the EUROGAM-2 array. New high-spin bands have been established in these nuclei and interpreted as terminating configurations using the Nilsson-Strutinsky cranking formalism. These bands were observed up to the predicted terminating states which are built from g9/2 pr

Very high spin states (I=50-60ℏ) have been observed in the transitional nuclei 161Er and 162Er using the Euroball γ-ray spectrometer. In 161Er, three bands are observed well above spin 50ℏ. In the positive parity, positive signature (+, + 1/2) band a discontinuity in the regular rotational behavior occurs at 109/2+ and a splitting into two branches occurs at 97/2- in the negative parity, positive

This study is a close replication of Kanwit and Geeslin (2014), an investigation of the interpretation of verbal moods in adverbial clauses in Spanish. Whereas the first language of the second-language participants in the original study was English, we explore whether Kanwit and Geeslin’s results extend to other first-language populations—Swedish and French learners of Spanish. Participants in the

This paper presents a reconfigurable radio frequency front-end (RFFE) tailored for direct RF sampling receivers operating within Frequency Range 1 (FR-1) of the 5G spectrum. It consists of a balun-LNA, a noise-cancelling, current-reuse, Q-enhanced filter, and a programmable gain amplifier (PGA). Fabricated in 22-nm FD-SOI technology, the RFFE covers the entire frequency range from 1.7 to 6.4 GHz w

Inspired by Austin’s work on the performativity of speech acts, Goffman’s notion of speaker positionings and Swales’ notion of genre moves, this paper explores how annual general meetings as a corporate genre are governed and propelled by the Swedish Companies Act, the Swedish Code of Corporate Conduct as well as explicit and tacit genre expectations. While observing more than thirty corporate ann

The movement of plants, animals, and microorganisms by humans, consciously or unconsciously, has changed both ecosystems and societies throughout history. This article focuses on one such transformative species, lodgepole pine, and its relocation from northwestern America to northern Sweden in the mid-twentieth century. A cultural biography of the lodgepole pine’s existence in Sweden examines how
