The N 1s --> pi* photoabsorption profile of N-2 is quantitatively analysed. New spectroscopical constants for the N 1s(-1) pi* core-excited state are determined from NEXAFS spectra and compared to previously published data. The accuracy of the new spectroscopical constants is discussed and error bars are given for the present data analysis. The goodness of the new spectroscopical constants is demo

The anthology Mannen med filmkameran ("The Man with the Movie Camera") is a Festschrift for Joel Ohlsson, teacher in film studies at former Department for comparative Literature, Lund university. The texts are close readings and formal analyses of contemporary international film.

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: The aim was to determine whether a delayed transfer to an enriched environment improves outcome after focal brain ischemia. METHODS: Performance on a rotating pole, prehensile traction, limb placement, and postural reflexes were tested in 15 spontaneously hypertensive rats housed in standard laboratory cages for 2 weeks after middle cerebral artery ligation. Seven of the 15

Nematodes, rotifers and tardigrades were collected on three nunataks (mountain peaks penetrating the ice sheet) in Vestfjella, on six nunataks; in Heimefrontfjella and on the Schirmacher Oasis in East Antarctica in the austral summers of 1996/97 and 2001/02. Most samples were taken on the nunatak Basen in Vestfjella where the Swedish station Wasa is located. The microfauna was patchily distributed

I denna uppsats behandlas andliga förbindelser mellan Sverige och Bornholm under 1800- och 1900-talet. Den rosenianska väckelsen kom att i hög grad ge det andliga livet på Bornholm dess särprägel. Liksom den rosenianska rörelsen i Sverige kanaliserades dels i Evangeliska Fosterlandsstiftelsen (EFS), dels i Bibeltrogna Vänner (BV), har motsvarande rörelse på Bornholm förgrenats i Luthersk Missionsf

A non-associated plasticity theory for granular materials has been developed in Part 1 based on the concept of a characteristic stress state of vanishing incremental dilation. The model is fully three-dimensional and is defined by six material parameters: two for elastic stiffness, one for plastic stiffness, two for the shapes of yield and plastic potential surfaces and one for the dilation at fai

The topic of this thesis is inspired by an experiment in which a vessel, laying a submarine cable, was provided with forecasts overlaid with satellite observations of significant wave height. During the operation, the vessel was close to an adverse weather area and the personnel on board could confirm that the forecast was not as close to the "ground truth" as the satellite observation was.

On Emanuel Swedenborg's natural philosophy, especially his mechanistic worlview.

A boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT) facility has been constructed at Studsvik, Sweden. It includes two filter/moderator configurations. One of the resulting neutron beams has been optimized for clinical irradiations with a filter/moderator system that allows easy variation of the neutron spectrum from the thermal to the epithermal energy range. The other beam has been designed to produce a larg

We have shown that protein kinase C (PKC)epsilon, independently of the catalytic domain, induces outgrowth of cellular processes via its regulatory domain in both neural cells and fibroblasts. This was accompanied by stress fibre loss. Here, we have examined the role of the small GTPases, Rac1, and Cdc42, in these PKC-mediated morphological and cytoskeletal changes. Both constitutively active and

The Spaniard Alfonso, Bishop of Jaén, was commissioned by St. Bridget of Sweden to prepare an edition of her Revelationes (the Liber Celestis). The present book gives an account of Alfonso's life and critical editions of three writings by him.

Presence–absence surveys are a commonly used method for monitoring broad-scale changes in wildlife distributions. However, the lack of power of these surveys for detecting population trends is problematic for their application in wildlife management. Options for improving power include increasing the sampling effort or arbitrarily relaxing the type I error rate. We present an alternative, whereby

Vascular smooth muscle tone is dependent on oxidative metabolism, a phenomenon of potential importance for the metabolic regulation of blood flow to tissues. The response of the rat portal vein to inhibition of cell respiration by cyanide (0.1-1 mM) is a reduction of its spontaneous myogenic activity. The trains of action potentials triggering phasic contractions are reduced in duration, while the
