The EAT-Lancet Commission has recently proposed a “universal” healthy reference diet. However, no study has specifically investigated its possible environmental benefits at the individual level based on observed data. Our objective was therefore to characterize the environmental pressures and impacts related to the level of adherence to the EAT-Lancet diet among French adults. Dietary data from a
The paper is part of a wider research project which seeks to explore the nexus between statelessness and refugee-ness at global, national and individual level. The relationship between the two legal concepts has not received much attention. This is surprising given that one in ten refugees globally are believed to be stateless. To begin to unpack this relationship, Denmark and Sweden are used as c
Objective: There has been a growing interest in the concept of self-compassion in Eastern psychology. The aim of the present study was to explore the dimensionality of the widely used Self-Compassion Scale (SCS; long and short versions) in both clinical and nonclinical samples Method: Several confirmatory factor analyses (CFAs) were computed in a mixed clinical (n = 316) and a nonclinical sample (
Antequera (Málaga) is home to one of the most important Neolithic and Copper Age megalithic landscapes in Europe, as proven by its recent declaration as a World Heritage Site by unesco on July 15th 2016. This declaration highlights the need to push ahead in the research of the Neolithic and Copper Age periods, when the megalithic phenomenon developed and the three large Antequera megaliths, Menga,
The decarbonization of the energy-intensive and natural-resourced-based industries is associated with large economic costs. In this paper, I explore how decarbonization may affect the profitability and market value of these industries and their ability to attract capital to fund their decarbonization. I also discuss the possibility of compensating for the investment costs through higher prices and
This article compares two Islamic organisations, a non-governmental and a national one, in their methods of collecting and distributing zakat, and analyses how they addressed the COVID-19 crisis with these funds in the period 2020–2021. The study examines Islamic Relief as a Muslim non-governmental organisation involved in humanitarian response, and the National Board of the Zakat Republic of Indo
Deep decarbonisation of extractive and foundational industries will involve widespread social and economic change. Research on previous industrial restructuring has demonstrated that resultant changes will be geographically uneven, especially without countervailing state intervention. Such change has been shown to matter for both the nature and location of work in those industries as well as for t
This paper discusses Scandinavian gold foil igures from the early part ofthe Scandinavian Late Iron Age (AD 550-1050) as well as miniature portrait pendants of the eighteenth century. he paper examines the possibility of comparing the two categories of objects, and what may be gained by contrasting historic and prehistoric images. he comparison is made through using Mitchell’s concept meta-picture
Context. Despite swift progress in the characterisation of exoplanet atmospheres in composition and structure, the study of atmospheric dynamics has not progressed at the same speed. While theoretical models have been developed to describe the lower layers of the atmosphere, and independently, the exosphere, little is known about the intermediate layers up to the thermosphere. Aims. We aim to prov
Despite the growing surge in the literature about employee creativity, the mainstream literature largely views it from an organizational perspective, and ignores the underlying mechanism that motivates employees to be engaged in different creative tasks. Against this backdrop, the current work was carried out to explore the relationship of corporate social responsibility (CSR) and employee creativ
The results of the optical spectroscopy of twofold coordinated silicon centers – ODC(II) in quartz and cristobalite glasses are presented. The luminescence and excitation spectra attributed to different local symmetry of ODC(II) were investigated under synchrotron excitation in the VUV region. The observed differences in the luminescence and excitation spectra of ODC(II) are caused by the environm
This study investigates the interaction of KEIF, the intrinsically disordered N-terminal region of the magnesium transporter MgtA, with lipid bilayers mimicking cell membranes. Combining experimental techniques such as neutron reflectometry (NR), quartz-crystal microbalance with dissipation monitoring (QCM-D), synchrotron radiation circular dichroism (SRCD), and oriented circular dichroism (OCD),
Aim: Risk of treatment-related life-threatening toxicity is high in childhood acute myeloid leukaemia (AML), and access to intensive care units (ICU) is crucial. We explored the ICU admission rate and outcome after intensive care in childhood AML in Sweden. Methods: Patients diagnosed between 2008 and 2016 were identified from the Swedish Childhood Cancer Registry (SCCR), a national quality regist
The paper elaborates and tests two hypotheses. First, that knowledge is not a homogeneous activity, but rather a bundle of highly differentiated disciplines that have different characteristics, both in terms of generation and exploitation, that bear a differentiated impact on economic growth. Advances in scientific knowledge that can be converted into technological knowledge with high levels of fu
It is estimated that there are over a million pornographic sites on the Internet, with as many as 10,000 added every week. In addition to having a major financial impact, adult pornography is strongly as- sociated with various types of violence against women, especially sexual assault. Some studies have found that the contribution of pornography to woman abuse in dating, marriage, and during or af
Offentliga uppköpserbjudanden är sedan länge ett centralt inslag på aktie- marknaden och kännetecknas av att en budgivare lämnar ett erbjudande till aktieägarna i ett börsbolag att överlåta sina aktier. Eftersom sådana erbjudan- den, och återkallande av sådana erbjudanden, kan påverka såväl målbolagets aktiekurs som aktiemarknadens förtroende är det viktigt att budprocessen präglas av tydlighet, lPublic takeover bids have long constituted a central feature of the stock mar- ket and are characterised by a bidder making an offer to the shareholders of a listed company to sell their shares. Since such offers, as well as the withdrawal of such offers, may affect the target company’s share price as well as confidence in the stock market, it is important that the bidding process is marked by cla
The thesis examines how the AI Act’s Article 2(3) security exemption and Article 346 TFEU interact in the context of dual-use AI systems. It argues that this interaction creates legal uncertainty regarding the status of technologies that can serve both civilian and military or security purposes. The AI Act applies to AI systems in the internal market, but excludes those used exclusively for milita
Few-cycle laser pulses are fundamental for tracking ultrashort motions such as electron dynamics and achieving stronger fields. They are also extensively used to perform high-harmonic generation and in attosecond science. However, generating stable and high quality few-cycle pulses requires a simultaneous control of bandwidth and dispersion. The generation of few-cycle pulses in an efficient manne
