Excited states of Cd-103 were studied in the reaction Ni-58(Cr-50,4pn)Cd-103. The NORDBALL array with neutron and charged particle detectors was employed for the detection of gamma rays and light evaporated particles. The level scheme of Cd-103 was significantly extended. A strong cascade of E2 transitions connecting negative parity states was found, Shell model calculations were performed and pos
The global governance of AIDS is dependent for its success on the concerted efforts of actors from both local and global levels, thus challenging the current international organization based on state sovereignty. The study seeks to understand the processes behind the creation of partnerships among the many different nongovernmental organizations (NGOs) active in AIDS politics and the intergovernme
A program for computing atomic autoionization widths, decay rates and lifetimes is presented as a new part of the MCHF atomic structure package. The method used is based on the ''configuration interaction in the continuum'' theory by Fano, in which the continuum is computed independently of the discrete part and the width is given by the ''Golden Rule'' formula. The program allows for correlation
This report gives a summary of Anders Hansson's visit to Imperial College of Science, Technology andMedicine, London. An overview of the research together with a summary of impressions are given.
The LDC formalism for DIS can describe HERA structure functions, and also agrees well with CTEQ and MRST gluon distributions. It is also suitable for hadronic collisions, and provides a strong connection between ep and pp reactions. Some preliminary results are presented.
1 The effectiveness of antimuscarinic agents in the treatment of the overactive bladder (OAB) syndrome is thought to arise through blockade of bladder muscarinic receptors located on detrusor smooth muscle cells, as well as on nondetrusor structures. 2 Muscarinic M-3 receptors are primarily responsible for detrusor contraction. Limited evidence exists to suggest that M-2 receptors may have a role
This article summarizes the status of the ATLAS detector and its commissioning as of autumn 2006, one year before the expected LHC start-up. The initial running scenarios and goals for B physics are presented for the foreseen pilot run with 900 GeV centre-of-mass energy in autumn 2007, as well as for the first physics run in 2008 at the nominal centre-of-mass energy of 14 TeV.
Purpose. Infiltrative microscopical peripheral growth of soft tissue sarcomas (STS) has been shown to be of prognostic importance and preoperative risk stratification could individualize neoadjuvant treatment. Patients and methods. We assessed peripheral tumour growth pattern on preoperative MRI from 78 STS. The findings were correlated to histopathology and to outcome. Results. The MRI-based peri
The aim of this study was to identify the role of organic matter of the Oi, Oe and Oa layers for leaching of dissolved organic matter (DOM) from the O horizon in a podsolised forest soil in southern Sweden. Solid state C-13 cross polarization magic angle spinning (CPMAS) nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy and C-14 measurements were used to analyse organic matter in solid material and wa
Epithelial shedding, even to the point of airway denudation, had already been described as a common and unifying feature of asthma by the latter half of the 19th century. However, the repair processes that specifically follow the shedding-like loss of epithelial cells have only recently been examined in vivo. This paper discusses the exceedingly fast epithelial restitution and the potential pathog
One hundred and thirteen long-term mentally ill clients receiving case management were investigated with regard to psychosocial and clinical predictors of changes in subjective quality of life during an 18-month follow-up. Better psychosocial functioning and fewer psychiatric symptoms at baseline predicted a greater improvement in quality of life. A larger decrease in symptom severity and a greate
Drygt 2 procent av alla svenska nyfödda barn har tillkommit med hjälp av in vitro-fertilisering, IVF, som är en medicinsk behandling för ofrivillig barnlöshet. Ägg och sperma förs samman utanför kroppen och det befruktade ägget planteras in i kvinnans livmoder. Alltsedan de första IVF-barnen föddes har frågor om såväl medicinska som sociala och psykologiska risker för barnet ställts av föräldrar,
BACKGROUND: There is a need to develop an instrument that measures both the parents' experiences and sense of security during the first postnatal week. No instrument measuring positive dimensions which can be influenced and supported by the postnatal health care has been developed. OBJECTIVE: The aim of the study was to develop a specific instrument to assess both mothers' and fathers' postnatal s
