Lunds universitet informerar om bakgrundsmätningar av strålningsnivån kring ESS LUNDS UNIVERSITET Medicinsk Strålningsfysik, Malmö Kärnfysik, Lund Under år 2017 och 2018 utförde Lunds universitet omfattande mätningar av strålningsmiljön kring forskningsanläggningen European Spallation Source (ESS) i Lund. Här svarar vi kortfattat på några frågor om mätningarna. Varför mättes strålningsnivån kring

The scientific community has gratefully embraced floating-point arithmetic to escape the close attention for accuracy and precision required in fixed-point computational styles. Though its deficiencies are well known, the role of the floating-point system as standard has kept other number representation systems from coming into practice. The paper discusses the relation between fixed and floating-

The measurement of potential enzymatic activities has been proposed as an efficient method to infer nutrient limitations for microorganisms in environmental samples. To validate this use, confirmation with direct methods of microbial growth responses to resource additions are required. We experimentally manipulated nutrient-poor soils from the afromontane subtropics with relatively low (grassland

The aim of this thesis is to critically examine how ethical principles are conceptualized and applied in educational contexts, focusing on the intersection of early childhood education and education for sustainable development. Its contribution to educational research in general, and to philosophy of education in particular, is to; first, discuss the presumed relation between ethical principles an

Introduction: Wearable sensors measuring bodily movements used in free-living conditions may help predict falls in older persons. Assessing their use in this context is essential to identify potential challenges related to fall risk screening. Therefore, this study aimed to assess the feasibility of conducting a prospective study comparing self-rated and wearable sensor-based measures for the asse

This paper introduces a three-dimensional approach for analysing brokerage in social networks that has the potential to open new areas of research in Science and Technology Studies (STS). Brokerage is a fundamental concept in social network analysis, where it refers to situations in which actors bridge otherwise disconnected actors. Such brokerage can have both individual consequences and conseque

Background Exertional breathlessness is a limiting symptom that often coexists with anxiety and depression. We tested the hypothesis that anxiety and depression negatively impact exertional breathlessness in daily life and during standardised cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPET). Methods Analysis of people aged ⩾40 years undergoing incremental cycle CPET. Exertional breathlessness in daily life

Background: Breathlessness on exertion is a common, distressing, and limiting symptom that can be quantified on incremental cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPET) using normative reference equations. Research Question: Is the breathlessness abnormality best uncovered and assessed at symptom limitation (peak exercise) compared with submaximal exercise intensities? Study Design and Methods: This wa

BACKGROUND: Breast cancer (BC) is the most common type of cancer in women worldwide. Post-treatment, patients suffer from side effects and have various rehabilitation needs, which means that individualization is fundamental for optimal rehabilitation. This systematic review (SR) of SRs aims to evaluate the current evidence on rehabilitation interventions in female patients following BC treatment.M

Numerous recent studies project that ‘climate engineering’ technologies might need to play a major role in the future. Such technologies may carry major risks for developing countries that are often especially vulnerable to, and lack adaptive capacity to deal with, the impacts of such new technologies. In this situation, one would expect that developing countries—especially the least developed cou

Introduction: Pancreatic cancer is a highly lethal disease with a close association between incidence and mortality. First-line (FL) palliative chemotherapy prolongs survival and alleviates cancer-related symptoms. However, the survival benefit of second-line (SL) treatment is uncertain, as studies fail to consistently show prolonged survival for any given SL treatment, and in the absence of progn

Inter-organisational projects depend on stakeholder interactions and joint decision-making to perform and continually adjust to variations. This paper examines the emergence of transformative resilience (i.e., dynamic project capabilities to pursue fundamentally new strategies and practices) when facing external disruptions. A process-orientated case study was conducted within a culturally diverse

In the present study, we apply deterministic chaos theory to investigate nonlinear dynamics in monthly precipitation at Mokpo, Korea, after wavelet decomposition. The wavelet transform is used not only for removal of noise but also for extraction of low and high frequency components in the data, representing low-dimensional dynamics. In order to determine an appropriate decomposition level for the

This article explores the use of sustainability criteria for biomass as a tool to promote and safeguard sustainability of this product. Much attention is paid to the issues that sustainability criteria for biomass should consider. Among them the priority for food supply and food security, the emission reduction of green house gases (GHG) through the whole production chain, the preservation of area

Bygg- och fastighetsbranschen utgör i dagsläget en betydande andel av Sveriges naturresursutvinning samt klimatpåverkan, där påverkan från traditionella stommar av betong och stål länge har dominerat. Klimatintensiva processer såsom cement- och stålproduktion är bidragande faktorer till att branschen är i behov av en hållbar och cirkulär omställning. Återbruk och cirkulärt byggande erbjuder hållbaToday, the construction and real estate industry accounts for a sizable portion of the market´s material consumption and climate impact, with traditional structural materials such as concrete and steel long dominated. Processes such as cement and steel production contribute to the industry´s need for a sustainable transition and circular transition. Reuse and circular construction offer sustainabl

After several years of broad support for the European Green Deal (EGD), a significant number of communities and politicians are calling on the EU and Member States to slow down its green measures and focus on ‘other’ crises, most notably the cost-of-living crisis.This White Paper argues that environmental, social and economic crises can’t be looked at in isolation. And that addressing today’s ‘pol
