Generalized bounds for active subspaces
In this article, we consider scenarios in which traditional estimates for the active subspace method based on probabilistic Poincaré inequalities are not valid due to unbounded Poincaré constants. Consequently, we propose a framework that allows to derive generalized estimates in the sense that it enables to control the trade-off between the size of the Poincaré constant and a weaker order of the
The Problem of Fit in Flood Risk Governance: Regulative, Normative, and Cultural-Cognitive Deliberations
Flood risk is a growing global concern that is not only affecting developing countries, but also the sustainable development of the most affluent liberal democracies. This has attracted attention to the systems governing flood risk across administrative levels, which vary between countries, but are relatively similar in the Nordic region, with both responsibilities and resources largely decentrali
Early Onset Ataxia with Comorbid Dystonia : Clinical, Anatomical and Biological Pathway Analysis Expose Shared Pathophysiology
In degenerative adult onset ataxia (AOA), dystonic comorbidity is attributed to one disease continuum. However, in early adult onset ataxia (EOA), the prevalence and pathogenesis of dystonic comorbidity (EOAD+), are still unclear. In 80 EOA-patients, we determined the EOAD+-prevalence in association with MRI-abnormalities. Subsequently, we explored underlying biological pathways by genetic network
Determination of jet calibration and energy resolution in proton–proton collisions at √s=8TeV using the ATLAS detector
The jet energy scale, jet energy resolution, and their systematic uncertainties are measured for jets reconstructed with the ATLAS detector in 2012 using proton–proton data produced at a centre-of-mass energy of 8 TeV with an integrated luminosity of 20fb-1. Jets are reconstructed from clusters of energy depositions in the ATLAS calorimeters using the anti-kt algorithm. A jet calibration scheme is

Coronakrisens anatomi – en första obduktion
På kort tid har coronapandemin utlöst en djup ekonomisk kris i Sverige. Härpresenterar vi en första obduktion av krisen. Vi jämför dagens krisförlopp medde två senaste kriserna, finanskrisen 1991–93 och den internationella finanskrisen 2008–09. Vi kartlägger hur svensk ekonomi har påverkats samt belyser de kortsiktiga samhällsekonomiska kriskostnaderna. Därefter beskrivs krispolitiken. Här ställs
Cooling of office buildings in cold climates using direct ground-coupled active chilled beams
This study investigates the use of a direct ground cooling system (DGCS) using active chilled beams for the cooling of office buildings in Sweden. The methodology of the study entails laboratory experiments to develop and validate a simulation model of the cooling system. The sensitivity of the input parameters, such as borehole heat exchanger (BHE) length, internal heat gains and room temperature
Prime Locations
We harness big data to detect prime locations---large clusters of know-ledge-based tradable services---in 125 global cities and track changes in the within-city geography of prime service jobs over a century. Historically smaller cities that did not develop early public transit networks are less concentrated today and have prime locations farther away from their historic cores. We rationalize thes

Rapport 11 från Taxonomikommittén
Här presenteras de senaste besluten av BirdLife Sveriges Taxonomi kommitté. Detta är en förkortad version, den fullständiga rapporten med mer detaljer, referenser och extralimitala förändringar finns på Tk:s hemsida under ”Rapporter”. I denna omgång utökas inte Sverigelistan med nya arter, dock urskiljs ett antal som mycket väl kan uppträda i Sverige i framtiden. Flera välkända svenska häckfåglar
Transformation of the Ghent system in Sweden: Silent Institutionalization of Complementary Unemployment Benefits
The Swedish public unemployment insurance program is characterized by its governance structure involving union-linked insurance funds, famously known as the Ghent system. This paper argues that the unions’ strongly entrenched interest in the provision of unemployment benefits has continued to shape the establishment and expansion of complementary benefits for the unemployed in multiple forms, incl

More Power to the People: Electriciy Adoption, Technological Change and Labour Conflict
Will technical change spur conflicts in the labor market? In this study, we examine electricity adoption in Sweden during the first decades of the twentieth century. Exploiting that proximity to hydropowered plants shaped the electricity network independently of previous local conditions, we estimate the impact of electricity on labor strikes. Our results indicate that electricity adoption precede
Patient-centered connectivity-based prediction of tau pathology spread in Alzheimer's disease
In Alzheimer's disease (AD), the Braak staging scheme suggests a stereotypical tau spreading pattern that does, however, not capture interindividual variability in tau deposition. This complicates the prediction of tau spreading, which may become critical for defining individualized tau-PET readouts in clinical trials. Since tau is assumed to spread throughout connected regions, we used functional
A facile one-stage treatment of critical bone defects using a calcium sulfate/hydroxyapatite biomaterial providing spatiotemporal delivery of bone morphogenic protein-2 and zoledronic acid
Bone morphogenic proteins (BMPs) are the only true osteoinductive molecules. Despite being tremendously potent, their clinical use has been limited for reasons including supraphysiological doses, suboptimal delivery systems, and the pro-osteoclast effect of BMPs. Efforts to achieve spatially controlled bone formation using BMPs are being made. We demonstrate that a carrier consisting of a powder o

Solubility and Thermal Degradation of Quercetin in CO2-Expanded Liquids
The solubility of quercetin and its thermal degradation was studied in CO2-expanded ethanol and ethyl lactate. An equipment setup was constructed that enabled the separation of the products of degradation while quantifying the solubility of quercetin. Three different conditions of temperature were analyzed (308, 323, and 343 K) at 10 MPa. Higher solubility and thermal degradation of quercetin were
