This study presents 62 years of hindcast wave climate data for the south coast of Sweden from 1959–2021. The 100-km-long coast consists mainly of sandy beaches and eroding bluffs interrupted by headlands and harbours alongshore, making it sensitive to variations in incoming wave direction. A SWAN wave model of the Baltic Sea, extending from the North Sea to the Åland Sea, was calibrated and valida
We use historical census data to show that Sweden exhibited high levels of intergenerational occupational mobility several decades before the rise of the welfare state. Mobility rates were higher than in other nineteenth- and twentieth-century European countries, closer to those observed in the highly mobile nineteenth-century United States. We leverage mobility variation across Swedish municipali
The light output of quantum cascade lasers is strongly affected by electric field-domain oscillations if the laser shows electrical instabilities. This can result in a substantial broadening of the emission spectrum, which is investigated here by detailed simulations for a terahertz device. We explain how the light pulsation is affected by electrical injection conditions and external capacitances.
Compared to other policy instruments that aim to change consumer behavior, information provision is perhaps the least controversial. An important question is how information in the form of carbon labels can contribute to direct food consumption toward reduced climate impact. From a policy guidance perspective, there is a need to identify how the labeling strategy affects consumers' ability to iden
We consider general prepare-and-measure scenarios in which Alice can transmit qubit states to Bob, who can perform general measurements in the form of positive operator-valued measures (POVMs). We show that the statistics obtained in any such quantum protocol can be simulated by the purely classical means of shared randomness and two bits of communication. Furthermore, we prove that two bits of co
The Arctic temperature changes are closely linked to midlatitude weather variability and extreme events, which has attracted much attention in recent decades. Syntheses of proxy data from poleward of 60g gN indicate that there was asymmetric cooling of-1.54 and-0.61gg C for the Atlantic Arctic and the Pacific Arctic during the Holocene, respectively. We also present a similar consistent cooling pa
Premiere of An Urban Archive as an English Garden by Davíð Brynjar Franzson at the SPOR festival, Aarhus, Denmark. The work includes field recordings by Halla Steinunn Stefánsdóttir. The festival and choice of location was curated by Anna Berit Asp Christensen and Anne Marqvardsen.
Performance of 'An Urban Archive as an English Garden' by Davíð Brynjar Franzson at the Hljóðön series, curated by Þráinn Hjálmarsson. The event took place at Hafnarborg Museum, Iceland. The first performance was in physical space, the second performance took place as a telematic event with the performance broadcast from Inter Arts Center studios into the hologram installation in Hafnarborg. An Ur
Objectives: This is a protocol for a Cochrane Review (intervention). The objectives are as follows:. To assess the effects of caffeine compared to aminophylline or theophylline in preterm infants at risk of apnea, with apnea, or in the peri-extubation phase.
Glypicans (GPC1-6) are associated with tumorigenic processes and their involvement in neoplastic behavior has been discussed in different cancer types. Here, a cancer-wide GPC expression study, using clinical cancer patient data in The Cancer Genome Atlas, reveals net upregulation of GPC1 and GPC2 in primary solid tumors, whereas GPC3, GPC5 and GPC6 display lowered expression pattern compared to n
The electrochemical growth of Au nanowires in a template of nanoporous anodic aluminum oxide was investigated in situ by means of grazing-incidence transmission small- and wide-angle x-ray scattering (GTSAXS and GTWAXS), x-ray fluorescence (XRF), and two-dimensional surface optical reflectance. The XRF and the overall intensity of the GTWAXS patterns as a function of time were used to monitor the
The activation of G Protein-Coupled Receptor 56 (GPR56), also referred to as Adhesion G-Protein-Coupled Ceceptor G1 (ADGRG1), by Collagen Type III (Coll III) prompts cell growth, proliferation, and survival, among other attributes. We investigated the signaling cascades mediating this functional effect in relation to the mitochondrial outer membrane voltage-dependent anion Channel-1 (VDAC1) expres
Background Women's pregnancy history is associated with incident risk of coronary artery disease with some evidence also suggesting a relevance for prognosis following treatment. Objectives To study the associations between maternal history of preterm delivery, a history of small for gestational age infant, parity and age at first delivery with clinical restenosis after percutaneous coronary inter
Group B streptococcus (GBS) is a leading cause of life-threatening neonatal infections and subsets of adverse pregnancy outcomes. Essentially all GBS strains possess one allele of the alpha-like protein (Alp) family. A maternal GBS vaccine, consisting of the fused N-terminal domains of the Alps αC and Rib (GBS-NN), was recently demonstrated to be safe and immunogenic in healthy adult women. To enh
We study the transient dynamics subject to quantum coherence effects of two interacting parallel quantum dots weakly coupled to macroscopic leads. The stationary particle current of this quantum system is sensitive to perturbations much smaller than any other energy scale, specifically compared to the system-lead coupling and the temperature. We show that this is due to the presence of a parity-li
We report on a combined experimental and theoretical study on CrI3 single crystals by employing the polarization dependence of resonant inelastic x-ray scattering (RIXS). Our investigations reveal multiple Cr 3d orbital splitting (dd excitations) as well as magnetic dichroism (MD) in the RIXS spectra. The dd excitation energies are similar on the two sides of the ferromagnetic transition temperatu
The self-screening error in the random-phase approximation and the GW approximation (GWA) is a well-known issue and has received attention in recent years with several methods for a correction being proposed. Here, we apply two of these, a self-screening and a so-called self-polarization correction scheme, to model calculations to examine their applicability. We also apply a local form of the self
Reading out the parity degree of freedom of Majorana bound states is key to demonstrating their non-Abelian exchange properties. Here, we present a low-energy model describing localized edge states in a two-arm device. We study parity-to-charge conversion based on coupling the superconductor bound states to a quantum dot whose charge is read out by a sensor. The dynamics of the system, including t
