Searches for the exclusive decays of Higgs and Z bosons into a vector quarkonium state and a photon are performed in the μ+μ-γ final state with a proton–proton collision data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 139 fb - 1 collected at s=13 TeV with the ATLAS detector at the CERN Large Hadron Collider. The observed data are compatible with the expected backgrounds. The 95% confidenc

Functional magnetic resonance imaging has suggested the possibility that hypoglycemia could interfere with neurovascular coupling. Here we discuss the implications of a study by Nippert and colleagues showing that hypoglycemia does not impair neurovascular coupling.

Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) biomarkers for Alzheimer's disease (AD) are increasingly used in research centers, clinical trials, and clinical settings. However, their broad-scale use is hampered by lack of standardization across analytical platforms and by interference from binding of amyloid-beta(A beta) to matrix proteins as well as self-aggregation. Here, we report on a matrix effect-resistant met

A compilation of the applied experimental conditions when studying metal ion adsorption onto kraft fibres, and the resulting conclusion, revealed that the ionic strength conditions used during the experiments were an important dividing factor. At low ionic strengths, the conclusion has regularly been that the Donnan ion-exchange model could correctly predict the adsorption while, at higher ionic s

This chapter explores the role of placed-based relational entanglements in disasters and argues that relations play an important part in shaping how disasters unfold. Exploring the case of mining-induced displacement in Sweden’s Malmfälten region—where two cities, Kiruna and Malmberget, and several villages are being moved or razed to make way for expanding mines—the chapter demonstrates how a str

Background: Left ventricular mass (LVM) is used when expressing infarct or fibrosis as a percentage of the left ventricle (LV). Quantification of LVM is interchangeably carried out in cine steady state free precession (SSFP) and delayed enhancement (DE) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). However, these techniques may yield different LVM. Therefore, the aim of the study was to compare LVM determined

In political debates, ‘children’ and notions of ‘the best interest of the child’ are used to dramatize and limit societal negotiations of sexuality and sexualities (Pellegrini, 2009). At the same time, “There has been a tendency amongst those who research marginalized youth to view social groups or identities as fixed units of analysis” (Loutzenheiser, 2007). With my presentation, I will engage no

Having fun at work has become a popular topic among practitioners and academic writers. Managed fun is the form of workplace fun that “stems from managers” (Plester, Cooper-Thomas & Winquist, 2015, p.381). However, researchers suggest that the ‘dark side’ of fun is to be further investigated as most of the empirical data is focusing on the positive effects of having fun at work (Fleming, 2005;

This thesis describes attempts at estimating the uncertainty of the 2-metre temperature forecast error from a probabilistic point of view, utilizing Bayesian neural networks. Bayesian neural networks are a type of machine-learning algorithms used to find patterns in data and make probabilistic predictions. Multiple fields of output data from the ECMWF IFS global model, along with temperature measu

Objectives: Within the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition (EPIC) study, the performance of 24-h dietary recall (24-HDR) measurements as reference measurements in a linear regression calibration model is evaluated critically at the individual (within-centre) and aggregate (between-centre) levels by using unbiased estimates of urinary measurements of nitrogen and potassium

ChatGPT och andra generativa Artificiell Intelligens (AI) -verktyg har nyligen fått betydande uppmärksamhet, och deras användning i skolarbete fortsätter att sprida sig globalt. Även om effektiviteten och säkerheten hos dessa verktyg inte är väl grundade i vetenskapen, tyder initiala resultat på deras popularitet i den svenska tonårspopulationen både för skolarbete och emotionell reglering. Hur anChatGPT and other generative AI tools have received considerable attention recently and their usage in schoolwork continues to expand globally. Even though the effectiveness and safety of these tools are not well grounded in science, initial findings suggest their popularity among the Swedish adolescent population for both schoolwork and emotional regulation. Whether this trend is the same in a yo

I dagens välfärdstjänster har synen på användaren i allt högre grad förskjutits från en passiv mottagare till en aktiv deltagare i värdeskapande. Denna förskjutning återspeglas i policyreformer, organisatoriska strategier och akademisk diskurs, vilka alla i ökande grad betonar användarorientering. Inom det teoretiska ramverket Public Service Logic (PSL) framställs användarorientering som ett sätt In today’s welfare services, how the user is viewed has increasingly been shifting away from a passive recipient towards an active participant in value creation. This shift is reflected in policy reforms, organisational strategies, and academic discourse, with all of these placing a growing emphasis on user orientation. Within the theoretical framework of Public Service Logic (PSL), user orientati

This master’s thesis investigates the system-level and mechanical design of a new service dongle for ASSA ABLOY Entrance Systems AB. The service dongle is a handheld Bluetooth tool used by service technicians worldwide to configure, service, and troubleshoot automatic door operators such as sliding, swing, and revolving doors. Currently, two solutions exist: the Configuration Tool Interface (CTI)

Popular Abstract in Swedish This thesis includes two different parts: One focusing on how to induce human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) to differentiate into insulin producing cells by following the normal pancreatic development pathway. These cells have then the potential to be an unlimited source for diabetes regenerative medicine.

High-elevation grasslands of the Cyperaceae Kobresia pygmaea cover nearly half a million km2 on the Tibetan Plateau. As a consequence of climate change, precipitation patterns in this monsooninfluenced region may change with possible consequences for grassland productivity. Yet, not much is known about the water cycle in this second largest alpine ecosystem of the world. We measured the evapotrans

The Tibetan highlands host the largest alpine grassland ecosystems worldwide, bearing soils that store substantial stocks of carbon (C) that are very sensitive to land use changes. This study focuses on the cycling of photoassimilated C within a Kobresia pygmaea pasture, the dominating ecosystems on the Tibetan highlands. We investigated short-term effects of grazing cessation and the role of the

Correlations of charged hadrons of 1< p(T) < 10 Gev/c with high pT direct photons and pi(0) mesons in the range 5< p(T) < 15 Gev/c are used to study jet fragmentation in the gamma + jet and dijet channels, respectively. The magnitude of the partonic transverse momentum, k(T), is obtained by comparing to a model incorporating a Gaussian kT smearing. The sensitivity of the associated charged hadron
