Nonlinear spectroscopy is a powerful method for measuring complex systems with significant inter-state correlations. Even methods such as these are, however, still vulnerable to spectral congestion. One of the proposed methods to enhance the resolution of this already powerful technique is to harness the strong correlations of photon-frequency entanglement. This is easier said than done of course,
This thesis examines robotic failure from the perspective of its social implications for human-robot interaction (HRI). Drawing on prior literature on the definitions, taxonomies, and motivations for studying robotic failure, the included papers focus on how humans respond to failure in HRI. In particular, the papers examine changesin attention, as well as human responses such as repair, helping,
This chapter explore contraceptive use of fertility awareness apps through the lenses of critical digital health and reproductive justice. Through political narrative analysis I trace three different ways which the personal contraceptive story connects to norms and dominant discourses on reproduction. I show how the apps reshape reproductive experiences by narratives of: 1) the digitised self as a
This response addresses a commentary by Orhan and Bal on our study of immigrant background and rape+ conviction in Sweden. We agree that conviction data do not capture all offending and that bias may occur at different stages of the criminal justice process. Our disagreement concerns the commentary?s movement from the possibility of such bias to an interpretation in which unequal legal treatment i
This paper examines FabLabs as machine-centred promissory organizations, where futures are not only imagined, but also materially enacted. Drawing on new materialist and process perspectives, we conceptualize FabLabs as promissory assemblages of entangled human and non-human actors, through which future-making is enacted. We show that machines are central agents for the materialization of imagined
In many countries, welfare organisations have adopted a 'digital first' approach. However, a major challenge for welfare organisations is to provide more and better-equipped digital services, while ensuring that they do not create higher thresholds for accessing welfare services. This article is based on a qualitative interview study with care users who received video visits from home care in SwedIn many countries, welfare organisations have adopted a 'digital first' approach. However, a major challenge for welfare organisations is to provide more and better-equipped digital services, while ensuring that they do not create higher thresholds for accessing welfare services.

This chapter reviews and synthesises scholarship on Central Asian women’s migration beyond the region, focusing on movements from Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan and Uzbekistan to Russia, Turkey, Europe and North America. Drawing on a systematic review of peer-reviewed literature published between 1990 and 2025, the chapter argues that women’s migration constitutes a key analytical site for und
A new approach to targeting cell adhesion in oncology was recently suggested by observations made in patients with bladder cancer. Intravesical alpha1-oleate treatment triggered rapid tumor cell detachment into the urine and a parallel reduction in tumor number and size. This study identified alpha1-oleate as a potent inhibitor of multiple cell adhesion families in shed cells and tumor biopsies fr
Syftet med denna studie är att analysera debatten om ”Drag Queen Story Hour” i Sverige och därmed förstå hur den så kallade anti-genusrörelsen tar sig uttryck i en svensk kontext. Studien använder en metod som kombinerar kritisk diskursanalys med tematisk analys av materialet. Genom dessa metoder är målet att undersöka såväl debattens retoriska aspekter som den rådande diskursen. För att besvara fThe purpose of this study is to analyze the debate about drag queens story hour in Sweden and thus to understand how the anti-gender movement is expressed in a Swedish context. The analysis method that I chose for the study is inspired by the critical discourse analysis as well as a thematic analysis of the material. Using these methods the aim of the study is to examine the rhetoric aspects of th
Heterogeneous explainable spatiotemporal graph neural networks for disease outbreak surveillance using individual and aggregated-level data Fine-scale forecasting of severe infectious-disease outcomes can support local public-health planning, but most spatiotemporal forecasting models represent geographic areas as homogeneous nodes and do not explicitly retain information from individuals and hous
This thesis examines whether Chile's governance of its two strategic minerals, copper and lithium, has moved its economy beyond the extractive model that has characterised Chilean development for over a century. Using price and production data for copper (from 1966 to 2024) and lithium (from 1985 to 2024), it shows that both commodities exhibited persistent supply inelasticity, leaving Chile&#
Popular Abstract in Swedish De övergripand syftena med dessa studier var att undersöka vilka konsekvenser höftbesvär och höftledsartros har på hälsorelaterad livskvalité, fysisk förmåga och tilltro till egen förmåga. Höftledsartros är ofta förknippad med svår smärta och påverkar både fysiska funktioner och livskvalité. Förekomsten av höftbesvär, i en befolkningsgrupp i södra Sverige, var 32%, och The overall aims of this work were to investigate the consequences of hip disorders and hip osteoarthritis (OA) on health-related quality of life (HRQL) physical function and self-efficacy. The condition, hip OA, is often associated with significant pain and has a strong impact on physical function and quality of life. The prevalence of hip disorders were 32% and among the individuals reporting h
Popular Abstract in Undetermined I den här populärvetenskapliga sammanfattningen berörs avhandlingen Gradient Methods for Large-Scale and Distributed Linear Quadratic Control. Hur kan jetflygplan hålla sig i luften? Hur kan en Segway balansera en människa? Dessa frågor och många fler kan besvaras med hjälp av reglerteknik. Reglerteknik är ett område som behandlar hur man automatiskt styr system oThis thesis considers methods for synthesis of linear quadratic controllers for large-scale, interconnected systems. Conventional methods that solve the linear quadratic control problem are only applicable to systems with moderate size, due to the rapid increase in both computational time and memory requirements as the system size increases. The methods presented in this thesis show a much slower
Entrepreneurship is an emerging research field that has received much scholarly attention in recent decades. Given the global scope of this attention, this article compares entrepreneurship research in China with that in the USA and Europe. Based on publications in Social Science Citation Index and Chinese Social Science Citation Index databases over the past 10 years, we use bibliometric method t
The aim of this study in textile studies and cultural history is to gain a greater understanding of what happened to the division of labour and manufacturing techniques when female fashions changed in the period 1770-1830. This was a time of upheaval as regards fashions, and a change in dress practice. The decades around 1800 were a period of major societal and cultural transformation. Female fash
Pollution induced community tolerance (PICT) has been suggested as an end-point measurement less affected by confounding environmental factors compared to standard methods of microbial growth, activity and community composition. We evaluated the use of PICT to determine Cu toxicity in vineyard soils polluted with Cu based fungicides (25-1120 mg Cu kg(-1)). These soils also varied in pH (4.3-7.3),
