Preparation of a new type of cryostructured carbon particle macroporous gel with one-step sub-zero cross-linking was studied in this work. Aggregation of nano-and micro-particles of poly(N-isopropylacrylamide-co-allylamine) was used to form a polymeric network to integrate activated carbon particles. The cryostructured particle gel was compared with the conventional composite cryogel. The unique m

Lärosäten Syd är ett nära och formaliserat samarbete mellan de fem skånska och blekingska lärosätena, nämligen Blekinge Tekniska Högskola, Högskolan Kristianstad, Lunds universitet Malmö högskola och SLU/Alnarp, Figur 1. Universitet och högskolor har på ett nytt sätt blivit väsentliga regionala aktörer med ett stort ansvar inom ett antal viktiga områden som tillväxt, industri, kultur och arbetsmar

Sweden's connections to and relationships with the European and wider world is a field of study attracting considerable scholarly attention. The essays here, from archaeologists and historians, offer a new perspective on early modern Sweden as deeply affected by the increasing internationality of the 16th-18th centuries. Set in the socio-political context of an expanding and changing kingdom, they

Myoglobin has the ability to react with hydrogen peroxide, generating high-valent complexes similar to peroxidases (compounds I and II), and in the presence of excess hydrogen peroxide a third intermediate, compound III, with an oxymyoglobin-type structure is generated from compound II. The compound III is, however, easily one-electron reduced to peroxymyoglobin by synchrotron radiation during cry

Only a small fraction of the peptides generated inside the cell end up being presented by HLA-I on the cell surface. High stability of peptide-HLA-I complexes and a low HLA-I tapasin-facilitation have been proposed to predict immunogenicity. We here set out to investigate if these parameters correlated and defined immunogenic peptides. Both peptide-HLA-B*08:01 and peptide-HLA-A*02:01 complexes sho

BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES: Cross-sectionally, educational attainment is strongly associated with the prevalence of obesity, but this association is less clear for weight change during adult life. The objective of this study is to examine the association between educational attainment and weight change during adult life in the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition (EPIC). SUBJECT

To facilitate reliable and accurate modeling of the late transition metal oxides from first principles, we present detailed and systematic calculations of the dynamical screened Coulomb interactions (Hubbard U) of MnO, FeO, CoO, and NiO within the constrained random-phase approximation. The matrix elements of the screened interactions are calculated in maximally localized Wannier functions. We con

I Jonstorps socken finns flera av de mest välkända stenåldersplatserna inom Skandinavien. De är uppmärksammade både nationellt och internationellt. Det är tack vare rektorn och arkeologen Oskar Lidén (1870–1957), som vi känner till dem. Han gjorde systematiska inventeringar och samlade in ett mycket stort stenåldersmaterial mellan åren 1910 och 1937. Han skrev många artiklar och böcker om fyndplat

Medium-induced gluon radiation gives rise to the strong energy loss observed in single hadron spectra in heavy ion collisions. Its angular structure, leading e.g. to intra-jet correlations, is only known for the one-gluon inclusive case. In the vacuum, properties such as angular ordering appear when considering less inclusive distributions due to destructive interference effects. We present a calc

The ATLAS TRT barrel is a tracking drift chamber using 52,544 individual tubular drift tubes. It is one part of the ATLAS Inner Detector, which consists of three sub-systems: the pixel detector spanning the radius range 4 to 20 cm, the semiconductor tracker (SCT) from 30 to 52 cm, and the transition radiation tracker ( TRT) from 56 to 108 cm. The TRT barrel covers the central pseudo-rapidity regio

Measurements of the anisotropy parameter v(2) of identified hadrons (pions, kaons, and protons) as a function of centrality, transverse momentum p(T), and transverse kinetic energy KET at midrapidity (vertical bar eta vertical bar < 0.35) in Au + Au collisions at root s(N N) = 200 GeV are presented. Pions and protons are identified up to p(T) = 6 GeV/c, and kaons up to p(T) = 4 GeV/c, by combining

The crustal segment Volgo-Uralia is the least known part of the East European Craton. Its crystalline crust is hidden beneath a thick Neoproterozoic to Phanerozoic cover but disclosed by thousands of drill holes. In conjunction with the recent "Tatseis" reflection seismic profile, we conducted the first isotopic study of the Bakaly granitoid block in eastern Volgo-Uralia, which represents a subsur

Understanding design principles of biomolecular recognition is a key question of molecular biology. Yet the enormous complexity and diversity of biological molecules hamper the efforts to gain a predictive ability for the free energy of protein-protein, protein-DNA, and protein-RNA binding. Here, using a variant of the Derrida model, we predict that for a large class of biomolecular interactions,

Background. The presence of mild to moderate ischemic mitral regurgitation (IMR) marks a significantly reduced long-term survival and increased hospitalizations due to heart-failure. However, it is common practice in many institutions to refrain from repairing the mitral valve in these patients. There are no available conclusive data to support this practice, and thus there is a need for an adequa

In what way can an artisanal perspective and artisanal knowledge contribute to current archaeology? How can theories about skill and expertise explain and affect research on artisanal issues? These are the questions that are in focus and have been explored in the four collected papers and in the concluding article in this thesis. The author proposes an artisanal perspective from an interdisciplina

Fixed-broadband access technology is evolving from exclusively copper-based solutions to hybrid fiber-copper architectures. This article presents the expected next step in the evolution of broadband systems, which we call the fourth-generation broadband concept. It identifies a technical, infrastructural, and economical niche and describes how the fiber-access network is extended and forked to fee

My PhD dissertation investigates relationships between contemporary art and spatial practices It emphasising the creation of platforms for public participation as interventions into urban regeneration processes. The project has two essential objectives: a. To identify the potential within contemporary art for a critical analysis of an urban de velopment process from the location, in dialogue with
