The jet angularities are a class of jet substructure observables which characterize the angular and momentum distribution of particles within jets. These observables are sensitive to momentum scales ranging from perturbative hard scatterings to nonperturbative fragmentation into final-state hadrons. We report measurements of several groomed and ungroomed jet angularities in pp collisions at s = 5.
BACKGROUND: As mild cognitive impairment (MCI) is typically used to identify prodromal stages of dementia, it is essential to identify MCI criteria with high diagnostic stability and prediction of dementia. Moreover, further investigation into pinpointing key factors for reversion is required to foresee future prognosis of MCI patients accurately.OBJECTIVE: To explore disparities in diagnostic sta
Background: Early childhood environmental exposures, possibly infections, may be responsible for triggering islet autoimmunity and progression to type 1 diabetes (T1D). The Environmental Determinants of Diabetes in the Young (TEDDY) follows children with increased HLA-related genetic risk for future T1D. TEDDY asks parents to prospectively record the child's infections using a diary book. The pres
Wear in forming tools and contact problems between sheet-metal and tool-material are common problems in manufacturing industries and sheet-metal-parts production. In this paper recent tool material experiences are presented. Quantitative determination of wear has been performed using micro hardness indentions made on the tool surface prior to pressings and thereafter measured. Wear tests are perfo
This thesis addresses the phase behavior and phase structure in mixed surfactant-surfactant and surfactant-polymer systems, where the co-solutes have opposite charges (catanionic systems). The initial goal has been to investigate self-assembly aspects in mixtures of single-/double-chained surfactants and bile salt/double-chained surfactants, with the main focus on vesicle assembly in dilute region
Popular Abstract in Swedish Den här avhandlingen är framlagd i ämnet kemisk fysik. Kemisk fysik är ett mycket stort forskningsområde, som innefattar fenomen allt ifrån vibrationer i molekylära bindningar till betydligt större fenomen, som till exempel energi och elektrontransport i den naturliga fotosyntesen. Fotosyntesen är naturens mest betydelsefulla process. Den driver i princip alla växter, sThe aim of this thesis is to study collective excitation dynamics in molecular aggregates. Half of the work presented here is method development and the remainder is application of these methods to several di.erent molecular aggregates. In the first two papers, the pump-probe signal was derived using the Green function approach of the optical response functions and formulated in the Doorway-Window

Popular Abstract in Swedish Aktivitet och förmågan att kunna utföra olika dagliga sysslor är central för människan och har stor betydelse för upplevelse av hälsa. I samband med sjukdom eller skada kan förmågan till aktivitet förändras, och komplexiteten i de dagliga sysslorna blir tydlig. Systemisk skleros (sklerodermi) är en ovanlig bindvävsjukdom, som karakteriseras av förändring av immunförsvarSystemic sclerosis (scleroderma) is a connective tissue disease which, in various ways, influences an individual’s ability to participate in everyday occupations. The general objective of this work was to elucidate the consequences of scleroderma with respect to hand function, everyday occupations and wellbeing, in order to provide a knowledge base suitable for occupational therapy interventions.
Popular Abstract in Swedish I början 1990-talet upptäcktes att det var möjligt att syntetisera så kallad mesoporös silika. Upptäckten fick stor uppmärksamhet då materialen har ett flertal intressanta egenskaper som inkluderar ett stort antal porer med väldefinierad diameter, jämn partikelstorlek och möjligheten att påverka dessa och andra egenskaper. I den här avhandlingen har det mesoporösa siliSeveral aspects related to the mesoporous silica material SBA-15 have been studied through the use of a wide range of experimental techniques, including low voltage high-resolution scanning electron microscopy, small angle X-ray scattering and nitrogen sorption. This work contains three parts, which are in many ways overlapping. The first part deals with the formation of SBA-15, it is found that a
Popular Abstract in Swedish Varje år diagnostiseras över 50 000 nya cancerfall i Sverige varav drygt hälften botas. Sedan början på 1970-talet har cancer blivit allt vanligare. Ökningen beror delvis på att vi blivit allt äldre - cancer är en ålderssjukdom. Dödligheten har däremot varit ganska konstant under en längre tid eftersom diagnostik och behandling av cancer har förbättrats. De vanligaste Cancer is one of the main causes of death in the world, particularly in developing countries and is considered as a major public health problem. Radiation therapy has been an important modality for treatment of cancer for many decades. It can be used as a sole treatment modality or in combination with for example surgery, chemotherapy, hormone therapy and/or immune therapy. It has been calculated
Background: Snake mitochondrial genomes are of great interest in understanding mitogenomic evolution because of gene duplications and rearrangements and the fast evolutionary rate of their genes compared to other vertebrates. Mitochondrial gene sequences have also played an important role in attempts to resolve the contentious phylogenetic relationships of especially the early divergences among al

The synchrotron radiation activities at SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory (formerly Stanford Linear Accelerator Center) started out in 1972 as a small-scale Stanford University project. The project gradually grew to become one of the first national centers for synchrotron radiation in the United States and, eventually, an independent laboratory in charge of its own accelerator machine and organ
Double-quantum coherence two-dimensional (2Q2D) electronic spectroscopy is utilized to probe the dynamic fluctuations of electronic states in a solvated molecule at approximately twice the energy of the ground state bleach transition. The 2Q2D spectrum gives insight into the energetic position and spectral fluctuations (system-bath interaction) of the probed excited states. Combining it with singl
