Despite the increasing normalization of nightwork, organizational researchers typically study organizations and work as daytime phenomena. A nocturnal lens, nevertheless, can provide a different picture of what is going on in organizations. In this paper, I introduce nightwork into organization studies with a qualitative case study of two research sites (a factory and a hospital laboratory), and a
The photo-electro catalysis has emerged as efficient and sustainable degradation method for antibiotics, where metal oxide anode plays a critical role. Exploring novel preparation method for anodes catalysis to achieve larger active sites and diverse oxidants production can directly enhance the degradation performance. Therefore, in this work, a new urea precipitation method for anode formation wa
Collimated sprays of paticle, known as jets,are abundantly produced in high-energy proton-proton (pp) collisions, and are predicted by many theories of physics beyond the Standard Model. This thesis reports first on the calibration of jets with focus on the data-driven in situ calibration. Two searches for new physics phenomena in events with jets in the final state are then presented. The analyse
This paper presents new estimates of the living standards among the rural labouring classes in Sweden from 1750 to 1900. Starting with a database of more than 1,000 probate inventories of rural landless and semi-landless people from the benchmark years 1750, 1800, 1850 and 1900, we study the development for crofters in particular. We measure their assets and debts in great detail, mapping the deve
Regional roles of universities in the Global South have been under-explored, and it is not clear how relevant are concepts originating from the Global North when applied in this context. The paper interrogates the concept of the ‘entrepreneurial university’ and its regional impact and engagement via a case study in Brazil. It is found that, in addition to purely entrepreneurial and economic activi
The role of the IPCC as a boundary, or hybrid organization, between science and policy has been well-documented. Much of this research focuses on the role that the IPCC has had in shaping policy outcomes, or how its limitations have potential impacts in uptake and political acceptability of its knowledge claims. Less has been said on its role as an organizer of scientific research. This paper take
INTRODUCTION: The pandemic caused by the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) has exposed vulnerable populations to an unprecedented global health crisis. The knowledge gained from previous human coronavirus outbreaks suggests that pregnant women and their fetuses are particularly susceptible to poor outcomes. The objective of this study was to summarize the clinical manife
Supercritical fluids offer considerable advantages for the isolation of natural products. Supercritical fluids can be used as antisolvents to precipitate selectively target compounds from a mixture and to remove impurities by the Supercritical Antisolvent technique (SAS). The present decade has experienced a considerable increase in the number of publications that apply this technique to natural e
A method based on femtosecond two-photon excitation has been developed for simultaneous visualization of interference-free fluorescence of H and O atoms in turbulent flames. This work shows pioneering results on single-shot simultaneous imaging of these radicals under non-stationary flame conditions. The fluorescence signal, showing the distribution of H and O radicals in premixed CH4/O2 flames wa
Pallet racks used in industry are often exposed to large loads, and in some casesresistance to failure is reduced by damage or inadequate handling. The present study was undertaken with the aim of investigating a number of different parameters of importance for the load-carrying capacity of pallet racks. Mainly numerical studies, using the finite element method, are performed, but some experimenta
This chapter explores how women and families from different minority ethnic backgrounds are treated within the Swedish welfare state by focusing on a space in which the Swedish welfare state meets migrant families in very powerful ways: the delivery room. It begins with a short overview of the Swedish health care system and the Swedish immigration regime, with a particular focus on the changes tha
This thesis explores the role played by norms and social actors in establishing the acceptability and the purported validity of leadership measures. Taking an interpretivist and critical approach, I examine the subjective and normative side of supposedly objective quantitative assessment tools.Through observations, interviews, and document analysis I uncover the normative agendas and social contex
Dictyostelids are a monophyletic group of sorocarp-forming social amoebae in the major eukaryotic division Amoebozoa. Members of this taxon, which is made up of almost 200 described species, are common in terrestrial soils globally. Still, the alpha diversity is not well known in many areas, and new species are frequently recovered. The highest species richness is found in the tropics. Here, five
The current concept of social resilience, which developed from the classic definition of resilience, neglects social resilience as a social phenomenon including social experiences and practices in the face of change and adversity. I argue that framing social resilience as a capacity or ability undermines its characteristics as a complex and contextualized social phenomenon that contributes to adap
Swedish emigration to America is a topic that does not hold a major position in Swedish historical research anymore. At one time, during the 1960s and 1970s, there were a major research project, Sweden and America after 1860, that focused primarily on the reasons of the migration, the demographics of the migration and to some extent what happened to the emigrants in America. The research project d
