Asthma is a heterogeneous chronic respiratory disease affecting millions worldwide, and the prevalence is increasing. Although most patients achieve disease control using mainstay treatment with inhaled corticosteroids and bronchodilators, a subgroup of patients suffers from uncontrolled disease. Developing novel therapeutic strategies for these patients is therefore of great importance. When trea
Climate change and connected environmental disruptions have a large negativeeffect on the health of humans and other species. Improved understanding ofknown links in the environment-disease nexus as well as knowledge gaps isessential to prepare for and mitigate this escalating threat. However, knowledgefragments are scattered across millions of scientific articles making informationsynthesis too c
We face closely intertwined crises related to biodiversity, climate change, global health andinequality. Unfortunately, the knowledge that could help overcome these existential crises isscattered across millions of scientific articles, reports, policy documents, databases, andindividual datasets, far exceeding human processing capabilities. This hinders evidence-basedresearch, innovation and polic
Av de barn som blir hemlösa utgör 90% barn till föräldrar som blivit vräkta på grund av en hyresskuld. I kapitlet beskrivs hyreslagens regler inklusive rättspraxis samt det stöd föräldrarna kan få genom socialtjänstlagen. Rättsläget analyseras i förhållande till de krav FN:s barnkonvention samt den svenska införlivandelagen uppställer.

Generating narrow energy spread beams from laser wakefield accelerators with minimal dark current is important for many applications. We present an automated experiment using Bayesian optimization to control the laser spectral phase and focal position, achieving significant enhancement of the beam quality. Starting from a broadband spectrum, the optimized configuration achieved low-energy spread w
The total potential energy surfaces of several thallium, gold, iridium and rhenium odd-mass isotones are calculated microscopically as functions of the quadrupole deformation epsilon 2, when the odd protons occupy definite orbitals. The nuclear shapes and the static equilibrium deformations of these nuclei are deduced from the results of these calculations for the proton orbitals nearest to the Fe
Nilsson-Strutinsky cranking calculations on A ≥ 100 Ru and Pd nuclei suggest that, contrary to other mass regions, it should be possible to follow the ground state rotational bands to their termination at spins just above I = 30ℏ and then also to observe other bands which terminate at higher spins.
A semi-empirical method inspired by Blomqvist's (1969) previous calculations of the excitation energy of the lowest 9/2- state of 201Tl is applied to similar calculations in different Tl, Au and Ir isotopes. These semi-empirical estimates agree well with the experimental values of the excitation energies as well as with the energy differences deduced from the analysis of the total potential energy
Levels and transitions in 107In and 109In have been studied in in-beam spectroscopy on the reactions 106Cd(d, nγ)107In and 108Cd(d, nγ)109In. Low-lying 1 2+ and 3 2+ states resembling the possible rotational bands observed in the heavier In isotopes are seen in both nuclei. The potential energy has been calculated for 107-121In with the odd proton in different orbitals, using the Strutinsky normal
A broad discussion of the ground-state potential-energy surfaces of doubly even deformed and transitional nuclei with Z = 50-82 is presented. The surfaces are calculated microscopically as functions of the quadrupole axial ε and non-axial γ and the axial hexadecapole ε4 deformations. A correlation between the form of the surfaces and the experimental spectroscopic trends is extensively discussed.
The effects of the simultaneous presence of monopole and quadrupole pairing interactions on the fission barriers for heavy and superheavy elements are considered. The first barrier for light Thisotopes is found to be raised by 1 MeV, while heavier actinide nuclei seem to be less affected by the inclusion of quadrupole pairing. For the superheavy elements, the inclusion of quadrupole pairing tends
Ground state moments of inertia and collective gyromagnetic ratios of deformed even nuclei with 50 < Z, N < 82 are calculated in the cranking-model approximation. Rather good agreement with experimental values of the moments of inertia is obtained. The dependence of the moment of inertia on the quadrupole (axial ε and non-axial γ) and on the hexadecapole ε4 deformations is investigated. Special co
Relations between different core-particle coupling models based on the Bohr Hamiltonian are discussed, and in particular the γ-unstable and rigid 30° triaxial cores are compared quantitatively. A new formulation is developed employing a rigid triaxial rotor core and the strong-coupling basis. Within the limitations imposed by this model core, it is equally applicable in the limits of small and ext
A detailed analysis of the positive parity levels in odd gold isotopes is carried out with an extended version of the Hecht and Satchler model (1962). A satisfactory description of 193-199Au positive parity levels and their electromagnetic properties is obtained by coupling several Nilsson particle configurations to an asymmetric rotor.
The strong shell effects observed experimentally and theoretically at high spins and moderate deformations are explained in terms of the interference between two effects. Thus, the effect of the quadrupole deformation to destroy the spherical shell degeneracy can be largely compensated by the orbital separation due to rotational motion. In the resulting coupling scheme, the subshell degeneracy of
