Determination of short- and long-distance contributions in B0 →k∗0μ+μ- decays

An amplitude analysis of the B0→K∗0μ+μ- decay is presented. The analysis is based on data collected by the LHCb experiment from proton-proton collisions at s=7, 8 and 13 TeV, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 4.7 fb-1. For the first time, Wilson coefficients and nonlocal hadronic contributions are accessed directly from the unbinned data, where the latter are parametrized as a function

Amplitude Analysis of the B0 →k∗0μ+μ- Decay : Physical Review Letters

An amplitude analysis of the B0→K∗0μ+μ- decay is presented using a dataset corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 4.7 fb-1 of pp collision data collected with the LHCb experiment. For the first time, the coefficients associated to short-distance physics effects, sensitive to processes beyond the standard model, are extracted directly from the data through a q2-unbinned amplitude analysis, wh

Contesting aeromobility, constructing alternatives: the prefigurative politics of staying on the ground

The concept of prefiguration has gained attention within environmental politics as a way to describe how everyday activism can enable transformation of unsustainable consumption practices, particularly around material necessities. Drawing on the case of Sweden’s flight-free movement, this article extends the research on prefigurative environmentalism to activism aimed at changing non-essential, ye

Reference ranges for ambulatory heart rate measurements in a middle-aged population

BACKGROUND: Elevated heart rate (HR) predicts cardiovascular disease and mortality, but there are no established normal limits for ambulatory HR. We used data from the Swedish CArdioPulmonary Imaging Study to determine reference ranges for ambulatory HR in a middle-aged population. We also studied clinical correlates of ambulatory HR.METHODS: A 24-hour ECG was registered in 5809 atrial fibrillatio

The effect of axial length on pseudophakic retinal detachment

Abstract Purpose The purpose of the study was to analyse the surgical management and outcome regarding axial length in the population affected by pseudophakic retinal detachment (PRD) 2015?2020. Method The patients included were from an observational cohort study of patients undergoing cataract surgery in the region of Skåne during 2015?2017. Data were retrieved from the Swedish National Cataract Purpose The purpose of the study was to analyse the surgical management and outcome regarding axial length in the population affected by pseudophakic retinal detachment (PRD) 2015-2020.

Demineralized allogeneic bone matrix for cartilage repair

We tested the chondrogenic potential of demineralized allogeneic bone matrix (DABM) in the repair of osteochondral defects. In 42 adult rabbits, a 5-mm2 or 15-mm2 defect was created bilaterally in the intercondylar groove of distal femur. DABM was inserted directly in 37 defects, whereas in 35 it was inserted after previous placement in muscle for 4, 16, or 19 days. Another 12 defects were left em

The occurrence of neuropeptides at different stages of DBM-induced heterotopic bone formation

In developing heterotopic bone in the rat, induced by allogeneic bone matrix, we immunohistochemically detected nerves containing substance P (SP), calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP), neuropeptide Y (NPY), vasoactive intestinal polypeptide (VIP) and tyrosine hydroxylase (TH). After 10 days they were dicernible amidst differentiating chondroblastoid cells in fibrous tissue around and within the

Neutron imaging of exchange flow between biopore and matrix for Bt versus C horizons

The surface coating of biopores plays a pivotal role in mediating mass exchange between the biopore and the soil matrix, ultimately governing preferential flow in structured soils. However, quantitative experiments of the flow exchange dynamics in the soil around an earthworm burrow (drilosphere) are limited. Here, we developed an experimental setup to mimic preferential flow within a biopore whil

Analysis of column reactor results with organic decay by native organic microbiota and varying permeability

Field bio-remediation techniques (FBRT) can be a low cost method to avoid the removal of top layers of soil which are rich in organic matter and bio diversity. The use of native microorganisms in FBRT is preferable because non-indigenous species can transfer their genetic material to the environment with negative impacts on the local ecological equilibrium. Petroleum Produced Water (PPW) is an imp

Integrationskrav i domstol : En studie av hur svenska migrationsdomstolar förhåller sig till nationella politiska ambitioner och övernationella rättskällor

Civic integration is an essential part of contemporary migration control regimes. This thesis examines what happens when civic integration policy enters domestic courts, by focusing on how Sweden’s migration courts (which are part of the administrative courts) apply the income and housing requirements for family reunification.The thesis revolves around a common discussion in the legal literature,

Phase field crystal modeling of grain boundary structures in diamond cubic systems

Phase field crystal (PFC) modeling has proved to be a versatile numerical tool in the analysis of crystalline microstructures. Most often, however, the focus is put on bulk crystal behavior, while crystal defects such as grain boundaries (GBs) are less explored. This is, in particular, the case for crystal structures beyond fcc and bcc. In this work, the possibilities and challenges in adopting PF

Compartmental anisotropy of filtered exchange imaging (FEXI) in human white matter : What is happening in FEXI?

PURPOSE: To investigate the effects of compartmental anisotropy on filtered exchange imaging (FEXI) in white matter (WM).THEORY AND METHODS: FEXI signals were measured using multiple combinations of diffusion filter and detection directions in five healthy volunteers. Additional filters, including a trace-weighted diffusion filter with trapezoidal gradients, a spherical b-tensor encoded diffusion
