The accuracy of auxiliary basis sets derived from Cholesky decomposition of two-electron integrals is assessed for excitation energies calculated at the state-average complete active space self-consistent field (CASSCF) and multiconfigurational second order perturbation theory (CASPT2) levels of theory using segmented as well as generally contracted atomic orbital basis sets. Based on 196 valence
To achieve high thermal efficiencies, 30 percent and higher, for small gas turbines a recuperator is mandatory. As the recuperator represents 25–30 percent of the overall machine cost, efforts are now being focused on establishing new low-cost recuperator concepts for gas turbine engines. In this paper the cross corrugated (CC), also called chevron pattern, heat transfer surface is reviewed to ass
This study estimated the risk of second primary malignancies after Hodgkin's lymphoma (HL) in relation to family history of cancer, age at diagnosis and latency, among 6946 patients treated for HL in Sweden in 1965-1995 identified through the Swedish Cancer Register (SCR). First-degree relatives (FDRs) to the HL patients and their malignancies were then ascertained together with their malignancies
To Ask for the King’s Permission to Marriage: Applications for Marriage between Relatives in Eighteenth Century Sweden. In early modern Western society regulations against incestuous relationships were primarily justified by religion, and kinship by blood and kinship by marriage were treated equally. In the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries Swedish law was among the strictest in these matters,
Animal bedding, a mixture of straw and manure, could be used as a feedstock for bioenergy production, but its heterogeneity poses new challenges in its use in biorefineries. We have investigated the origin of this heterogeneity and quantified it, and discuss its impact on bioenergy production. Samples were collected from the bedding at different points and depths and analysed by first separating t
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Kidd blood group system consists of two major antigens: Jka and Jkb . Both the antigens are absent in individuals typed as Jknull and may develop clinically significant anti-Jk3 antibody. Screening donors for provision of Jknull blood is an ongoing task for blood centres with Jknull blood units kept frozen for specific requirements. In 2016, we discovered a previously ty
Laser cooling is a well-established technique for the creation of ensembles of ultracold neutral atoms or positive ions. This ability has opened many exciting new research fields over the past 40 years. However, no negatively charged ions have been directly laser cooled because a cycling transition is very rare in atomic anions. Efforts of more than a decade currently have La- as the most promisin
The aim of this study is to describe in what way the students' learning outcomes and theoretical assumptions are used by teachers to enhance the design of lessons with a focus on development of sustainable learning over time. Seven teachers and 71 students in an upper secondary school participated, along with one researcher. Three lessons were designed and implemented in three different student gr
Landscape air temperature thresholds (TA) and percent misclassified precipitation (error) for 12 years of meteorological observations from 40 stations across the Scandinavian Peninsula were derived and compared using both manual and geographic information system (GIS) landscape classification methods. Dew-point, wet-bulb, and wet bulb 0.5 were also tested. Both classification methods used the foll
Light-by-light scattering (γγ → γγ) is a quantum-mechanical process that is forbidden in the classical theory of electrodynamics. This reaction is accessible at the Large Hadron Collider thanks to the large electromagnetic field strengths generated by ultra-relativistic colliding lead ions. Using 480 μ1 of lead-lead collision data recorded at a centre-of-mass energy per nucleon pair of 5.02 TeV by
Purpose: Delayed perineal wound healing is a common complication after abdominoperineal resection (APR) in rectal cancer. The primary aim of this study was to evaluate the number of patients with delayed wound healing after APR. Secondary aims were to identify risk factors, and describe treatment. Methods: Prospectively collected data from the Swedish Colorectal Cancer Registry (SCRCR) was used fo
Objectives: To compare time intervals to diagnosis and treatment, tumor characteristics, and management in patients with primary urinary bladder cancer, diagnosed before and after the implementation of a standardized care pathway (SCP) in Sweden. Materials and methods: Data from the Swedish National Register of Urinary Bladder Cancer was studied before (2011–2015) and after (2016–2019) SCP. Data a
Utländska offentliga pensionsinstitut som får utdelningar från svenska företag beskattas i Sverige med kupongskatt på upp till 30 procent av utdelningens bruttobelopp. De inhemska motsvarigheterna, AP-fonderna, är statliga myndigheter och omfattas av statens skattebefrielse enligt inkomstskattelagen. Denna skillnad i beskattning av utdelningar har gett upphov till ett fördragsbrottsärende mot SverForeign public pension funds receiving dividends from Swedish companies are in Sweden subject to withholding tax of up to 30 percent of the gross amount of the dividends. The domestic equivalents, the Swedish governmental pension funds, the AP-funds, are exempt from income tax as they are a part of the Swedish state. This difference in taxation has given rise to infringement proceedings against Sw
This article contains an overview of the current proposals of converging IP-networks with PSTN. We describe Parlay and Open Service Access( OSA), two of the most promising architecture.
Cancer är en otrevlig sjukdom, som drabbar många människor. Man söker ständigt nya och bättre sätt att bota patienter eller åtminstone lindra sjukdomens framfart. Ett vanligt sätt att behandla cancer är med strålning. Strålningen kan bestå av sk fotoner. Fotoner är samma slags partiklar som t.ex. vanligt ljus. Skillnaden är att de fotoner som används vid strålbehandling av cancer har högre energi "Purpose: The aim of this study was to investigate whether inversely planned intensity modulated radiation therapy (IMRT), using the clinical radiotherapy equipment at hand in our department, renders any advantages regarding dose distribution over conventional radiotherapy for head and neck cancer patients in the ARTSCAN (Accelerated RadioTherapy of Squamous cell Carcinoma in the head And Nec
The purpose of this thesis is to create a framework for risk and vulnerability analysis on a societal level, meant to be used by Swedish municipalities to produce decision basis in risk- oriented issues. The framework is based on three major principles; a systems approach to risk and vulnerability management, regulation analysis according to Swedish legislation and evaluation principles for risk m
Människohandel för sexuella ändamål är ett komplext fenomen och ett globalt problem som både berör och upprör. Människohandel är gärningar som syftar till ett efterföljande utnyttjande av offret och ett brott där skyddssyftet är personlig frihet och frid. Det är också ett sammansatt problem, det vill säga att det innefattar bland annat brott mot mänskliga rättigheter, organiserad brottslighet, migHuman trafficking for sexual purposes is a complex phenomenon and a global problem that upsets. Human trafficking is an acts aimed to subsequent exploit the victim and a crime which aim the protection of personal liberty and peace. It is also a complex problem, that includes human rights violations, organized crime, migration, gender, poverty and social, economic and political differences between
