Resonant inelastic X-ray scattering (RIXS) is an extremely valuable tool for the study of elementary, including magnetic, excitations in matter. The latest developments of this technique have mostly been aimed at improving the energy resolution and performing polarization analysis of the scattered radiation, with a great impact on the interpretation and applicability of RIXS. Instead, this article

I texten undersöks förutsättningarna för att reglera sammanvägningen av meriter vid antagning till forskarutbildningen. Undersökningen motiveras av studier av meritvärdering inom andra områden som påvisar att just sammanvägningen av meriter tenderar att vara fördomsfull. För att konkretisera diskussionen så utgår texten från regler och praxis vid antagning till forskarutbildning vid Humanistiska o

γ1-AuZn2.1 in the Au-Zn binary system has been synthesized and its structure analyzed by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. It crystallizes in the trigonal space group P31m (No. 157) with ∼227 atoms per unit cell and represents a 3a × 3a × c superstructure of rhombohedrally distorted γ-Au5-x Zn8+y. The structure is largely tetrahedrally closed packed. The formation of γ1-AuZn2.1 can be understood w

Class-C operation is leveraged to implement a K-band CMOS VCO where the upconversion of the 1/f noise from the core transistors is robustly contained at a minimal level. Implemented in a bulk 28 nm CMOS technology,the VCO shows a phase noise as low as -108.5 dBc/Hz at 1 MHz offset (-83 dBc/Hz at 100 kHz offset) from the 19.5 GHz carrier,while consuming 14.4 mW and featuring a 12% tuning range.

A Ka-band,32-43 GHz,differential power amplifier (PA) for millimeter wave applications is presented. The PA is a three stage design with a nominal gain of 36 dB. A device periphery ratio of 1:2:4 is adopted for pre-driver,driver and final stage,respectively. To enable use of 2.7 V supply,a cascode topology was employed in all three stages. The input is 80 ω differential and the output load is 50 ω

As an open integrated environment deployed with wired and wireless infrastructures, the smart city heavily relies on the wireless-optical broadband access network. Smart home data are usually sent to neighbor optical network units (ONUs) through front-end wireless mesh networks (WMNs) and finally reach the optical line terminal (OLT) for decision making via the passive optical network (PON) backha

The gas in scattering media absorption spectroscopy (GASMAS) technique was used to investigate the possible presence of free gas pores in human condyle bones, extracted from the tibia in knee revision surgical procedures in response to arthrosis development. Following earlier studies showing free gas presence in femoral head bones, decaying because of inadequate blood flow, we investigated condyle

The morphologies of self-assisted GaP nanowires grown by gas source MBE in regular arrays on silicon substrates are modeled by a kinetic equation for the nanowire radius versus the position along the nanowire axis. The most important growth parameter that governs the nanowire morphology is the V/III flux ratio. Sharpened nanowires with a stable radius equal to only 12 nm at a V/III flux ratio of 6

A novel SPECT/MRI scanner has been modelled and tested here using Monte Carlo simulation software, SIMIND. The INSERT SPECT/MRI system faces challenges with event reconstruction due to photon depth of interaction. The novel SPECT system is subject to parallax errors due to its crystal size and slit aperture collimator. We present a simple measure of the DOI errors through SIMIND experiments; by mo

Executive functions comprise of top-down cognitive processes that exert control over information processing, from acquiring information to issuing a behavioral response. These cogni- tive processes of inhibition, working memory, and cognitive flexibility underpin complex cognitive skills, such as episodic memory and planning, which have been repeatedly investigated in several bird species in recen

Compact SPECT systems with cadmium zinc telluride (CZT) solid-state detectors with improved energy resolution and shorter acquisition times have recently been introduced. These systems have, however, different energy characteristics compared to NaI(Tl) crystal-based cameras. There is therefore a need to develop new simulation models for these cameras. We modeled the charge transport within the CZT

Prostate cancer (PC) is one of the most common malignancies affecting men, with poor prognosis after progression to metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC). Radioligand therapy (RLT) targeting the overexpressed PSMA on PC cells, with, e.g., 177Lu-PSMA-617, has been effective in reducing tumor burden and prolonging survival in mCRPC. However, it is not a curative method with kidney

Hormone-sensitive lipase (HSL) is mainly present in adipose tissue where it hydrolyses diacylglycerol. Although expression of HSL has also been reported in the brain, its presence in different cellular compartments is uncertain, and its role in regulating brain lipid metabolism remains hitherto unexplored. We hypothesized HSL might play a role in regulating the availability of bioactive lipids nec
