The N similar to 90 region of the nuclear chart has featured prominently as the spectroscopy of nuclei at extreme spin has progressed. This talk will present recent discoveries from investigations of high spin behavior in the N similar to 90 Er, Tm and Yb nuclei utilizing the Gammasphere gamma-ray spectrometer. In particular it will include discussion of the beautiful shape evolution and coexisten

Abstracts, NS166: Emerging Quantum Technologies Heike Riel (overview talk): Computing – From Bits to Qubits Classical computers which represent information as bits have evolved over many years in an unprecedented way and became ubiquitous in our life. Today these classical technologies based on miniaturization are reaching their limits and new computing paradigms are in quest to reduce power consu

Thermal fluctuations and non-equilibrium carriers can significantly alter the physical properties of nanoscale systems, and could be used to enhance the efficiency of energy-conversion therein. Here we describe our research to exploit these effects to boost the performance of nanoscale optoelectronic devices in a project funded by the Knut and Alice Wallenberg Foundation. Grant number: 2016.0089 T

Molecular-based systems including organic semiconductors (pi-conjugated polymers), metal complexes, organic-inorganic perovskites and other hybrid systems are all of great interest for emerging solar energy conversion applications. Current interests include fundamental investigations of photoinduced processes in a range of applications toward both photovoltaic and photocatalytic applications that

Purpose: This Position Paper aims to review and discuss the available data on therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) of antibacterials, antifungals and antivirals in critically ill adult patients in the intensive care unit (ICU). This Position Paper also provides a practical guide on how TDM can be applied in routine clinical practice to improve therapeutic outcomes in critically ill adult patients. Me

A simple method of widespread applicability in determining double bond positions in C12, C14, and C16 straight-chain monounsaturated acetates is presented. The analysis is made with a capillary gas chromatograph coupled to a low-resolution mass spectrometer which is operated in the electron impact mode. No chemical derlvatlzation of the unknowns is needed. Five pairs of selected mass spectral frag

The evidence concerning how posture influences blood pressure is not consistent. The aim of this cross-sectional study was to consider the clinical and epidemiological implications of blood pressure measured in seated versus supine position, and to investigate the impact of age, sex, body mass index (BMI), and diabetes on these differences.This study included 1298 individuals (mean age 58.6 ± 11.8

Background: Although the importance of quantitative SPECT has increased tremendously due to newly developed therapeutic radiopharmaceuticals, there are still no accreditation programs to harmonize SPECT imaging. Work is currently underway to develop an accreditation for quantitative 177Lu SPECT/CT. The aim of this study is to verify whether the positioning of the spheres within the phantom has an

Para athletes present a broad range of sports-related injuries and illnesses, frequently encountering barriers when accessing healthcare services. The periodic health evaluation (PHE) is a valuable tool for continuously monitoring athletes’ health, screening for health conditions, assisting in the surveillance of health problems by establishing baseline information and identifying barriers to athl

The decay of excited states of the nucleus 135Sn, with three neutrons outside the doubly-magic 132Sn core, was studied in an experiment performed at the Radioactive Isotope Beam Factory at RIKEN. Several γ rays emitted from excited 135Sn ions were observed following one-neutron and one-neutron-one-proton removal from 136Sn and 137Sb beams, respectively, on a beryllium target at relativistic energi

In products with multiple, movable components it is often important to know the position of them. Such an example is to localize the different optical modules used within a multidirectional surveillance camera. This thesis explores the feasibility of using ultrasound distance-measuring technology for that particular application. Various methods and technologies were examined before developing a co

We use a unique source from the Swedish royal demesnes to examine the work and relative wages of women in sixteenth-century Sweden, an economic laggard in the early modern period. The source pertains to workers hired on yearly contracts, a type more representative of historical labour markets than day labour on large construction sites, and this allows us to observe directly the food consumed by w

Purpose: To determine how image quality linked to tumor detection is affected by reducing the absorbed dose to 50% and 30% of standard dose levels, i.e. an average glandular dose of 1.26 mGy for a standard breast according to European guidelines. Material and methods: Tumors were computer simulated and inserted into 40 out of 90 normal, unprocessed images acquired from the screening department at
