Emmer (1993) claimed creativity to be a bridge between art and mathematics exemplified (www. olats.org/colloque/textes/texte7.shtml) in his traveling exhibition The Eye of Horus: Art and Mathematics (Emmer, 1990). A shared language is needed to make bridges between science, art and metaphysics (Thiessen, 1998). Scientific phenomena and concepts need to be possible to isolate for better understandi

Drawing on ethnographic observations in Sweden and affect theory, this study immerses researcher-consumer bodies in extended retail spaces to explore affective encounters. Conceptualizing consumption spaces as affective assemblages, it unveils how affective states of disposition, disorientation, and distress from interactions with socio-material elements shape bodily experiences of inclusion and e

The SP6 κ-promoter pentadecamer (pd) element was found to be unable to stimulate transcription when present in one copy as the only promoter element in a minimal promoter but showed weak stimulatory activity when present as a multimer (four copies). One copy of the pd element acted synergistically with an octamer element, but not with a SP1 site, to stimulate transcription. The effect was orientat

In “Selling luxury” perfume and cosmetics stores are approached as mediated physical experiences of luxury. The elusive character of smell has forced perfume brands to invoke guides to explain how their products should be experienced. These guides may be human, in the form of sales assistants, or non-human, in the form of visual marketing materials, packaging and store displays. In the context of

Several methods are routinely used to measure avian body temperature, but different methods vary in invasiveness. This may cause stress-induced increases in temperature and/or metabolic rate and, hence, overestimation of both parameters. Choosing an adequate temperature measurement method is therefore key to accurately characterizing an animal’s thermal and metabolic phenotype. Using great tits (P

To what extent can securitization theory help us to engage with the puzzles and problems of foreign policy analysis (FPA)? And how can FPA scholarship contribute to the development of the assumptions of securitization? This chapter will probe these questions and attempt to demonstrate that these seemingly disparate research traditions indeed both complement and inform one another. Securitization t

The New Swedish Cyprus Expedition 2010. Excavations at Dromolaxia Vizatzia/Hala Sultan Tekke

The European XFEL is a research facility that delivers extremely bright and short coherent X-ray pulses of tunable energy at MHz repetition rate, providing unprecedented capabilities to conduct scientific research across multiple domains. Among the suite of deployed detectors, several ePix100 modules, belonging to the family of ePix detectors developed at SLAC, are used. These charge-integrating h

BackgroundSocial and geographical inequity in access to primary healthcare is an ongoing concern in Sweden. Digital care can potentially decrease geographical inequity. This study aimed to evaluate how urbanicity affects the utilization of a public digital primary healthcare service - PHC Online.MethodsWe performed an ecological cross-sectional study of 4,482 PHC Online visits grouped by 83 public

I propose that the evolution of teaching has been central in extending manipulative intentions. Demonstrating may be the evolutionarily first form of expression that is productive, ostensive, and involves informative intention. Demonstration also involves theory of mind. Then pantomime goes a step further and involves a communicative intention. Pantomime can thereby function as displaced communica

Vi lever i en tid när gränsöverskridande rättsförhållanden blir en allt mer naturlig del av vår vardag. Med det ökade antalet internationella rättsförhållanden ökar också antalet potentiella tvister som har anknytning till mer än ett land. Makar med olika medborgarskap kanske kommer att vilja skiljas och den köpta produkten från det andra landet kanske var felaktig. När tvister av den här typen sk

The rise of online brand communities has transformed consumer/brand interactions, thus affecting consumer engagement and its nomological network. However, scholarly understanding regarding the effect of consumer values on their online engagement remains tenuous. Addressing this gap, we conceptualize a model that attempts to understand the relative effect of consumers’ values (terminal and instrume

Experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) shares similar immunological and clinical features with multiple sclerosis (MS), and is therefore widely used as a model to identify new drug targets for better patient treatment. MS is characterized by several different disease courses: relapsing-remitting MS (RRMS), primary progressive MS (PPMS), secondary progressive MS (SPMS), and a rare progress

This paper presents a production study investigating the frequency of utterance-final rises in South Swedish. These rises are interesting from a dialect typological perspective. Recent findings suggest that South Swedish has two-peak accents utterance medially, whereas previous typologies have assumed only one-peak accents for South Swedish dialects. The South Swedish two-peak accents are similar
