Karnevalsfilmen celestial redan 1908!

Biografisk artikel om lundastudenten, biografägaren, läraren och astronomen Karl Oskar Krantz (1867-1933) med fokus på hans insats som filmpionjär inom genren karnevalsfilm.

Investigation of wear initiation in CVD coated cermet tools during stainless steel turning

CVD (chemical vapor deposition) coated cutting tools typically exhibit thermal cracks caused by the mismatch in coefficients of thermal expansion (CTEs) between coating and cemented carbide. These cracks act as weak points during stainless steel machining, contributing to premature tool wear. As a strategy to suppress thermal cracks formation, we investigate replacing the conventional cemented car

Tempo and drivers of 3D eye size evolution in temperate butterflies

Sensory traits shape animal lifestyles due to the central role they play in retrieving and processing environmental information. However, being some of the most energetically expensive tissues to build and maintain, ecological demands often modulate investment in these organs. Evidence that ecology shapes the evolution of sensory traits is plenty, but is heavily biased towards vertebrates and has

Self-assembly and dynamic behavior of colloidal rods in the isotropic phase

In this study, we have investigated the dynamic behavior of colloidal rods within their isotropic phase, employing multispeckle ultrasmall-angle x-ray photon correlation spectroscopy (UA-XPCS) focusing on the understanding of the interplay between structure and dynamics at the nearest-neighbor length scale. While prior research has primarily focused on the structural aspects, our work addresses th

Experimental Investigation of Burning Liquids in Reduced Oxygen

The effects of oxygen concentration on combustion of gases have been investigated on fundamental levels in several studies. However, the same type of fundamental studies has not been made for liquid or solid fuels due to complex relationships between flame structure and changing mass loss rates (MLR). In this study, an experimental setup is designed that allows for extended times of stable combust

Spectrogram Data as System for Making Sculpture

This paper proposes a method for making generative art in the form of a system based on an interdisciplinary approach combining sculpture and sound. I will explore the possibility of using data from the spectral analysis of sounds as instructions for making sculpture. Inspired by Sol LeWitt's principles and ideas for the creation of generative art as system and Francis Halsall’s definition of a ‘s

From hazard detection to risk analytics in southern Africa : Twenty-five years of drought and flood research (2000–2024)

Southern Africa is a global hotspot for hydrometeorological risk, with intensifying droughts and floods increasingly disrupting livelihoods, ecosystems, and infrastructure. This study presents a systematic bibliometric and scientometric synthesis of 1481 peer-reviewed publications on drought and flood hazards published between 2000 and 2024 across the Southern African Development Community. Using

What Makes the Public Special? Political Philosophy, Methodology and Politically Motivated Research

Avner de Shalit argues that philosophers should listen to what the public thinks. He argues that by engaging with people in the streets, political philosophy will improve. Yet, what makes the public special in this regard? This response will do three things. First, it asks whether discussing with the public differs in any meaningful way from discussing with other people such as colleagues or stude

Community-oriented reuse organisations : a strong sustainability articulation of the circular economy

As circular economy (CE) strategies become mainstream in policy and business practice, concerns have emerged about their narrow focus on techno-economic efficiency, often associated with “weak sustainability”. In parallel, a growing number of grassroots, public, and hybrid initiatives have emerged at the local level, bridging product and material recovery with social inclusion, education, and ecol

Chemosensory evolution in the aquatic predator Drosophila enhydrobia

From the Wunderkammern of Renaissance Europe to the curated vaults of today’s natural history museums, millions of insect specimens have been preserved, capturing an irreplaceable chronicle of biodiversity, including lineages that are rare, highly specialized, or already extinct. Yet their fragility has historically constrained genomic inquiry. Here, we apply museomic methodology to a >40-year-old

Aging in place or moving on? Exploring older homeowners’ housing situation in the context of housing market dynamics and policy incentives

Housing preferences in later life vary, and housing decisions are complex. While much attention has been paid to health and accessibility, less is known about how financial factors influence housing decisions among older homeowners. This qualitative study aimed to deepen understanding of how single-family homeowners aged 55 and older reason about their housing situation. We conducted focus groups

Arbetsmiljöarbete i småföretag : en litteraturöversikt och intervjustudie

Småföretag med färre än 50 anställda är dominerande i både svenskt och många andra länders näringsliv. En delgrupp bland småföretag är mikroföretag med färre än 10 anställda. Syftet med denna rapport är att fördjupa förståelsen för hur arbetsmiljöarbetet upplevs och genom förs i småföretag, samt vilka hinder och möjligheter som kan förekomma i dessa företag i relation till arbetsmiljöarbetet. Rapp

Early risk assessment of severe outcomes in patients with suspected infection in the emergency department using clinical scores in a multicenter international validation

Background: Early identification of patients with suspected infection who are at risk of clinical deterioration in the Emergency Department (ED) is challenging, yet crucial for timely initiation of appropriate care and prevention of clinical deterioration. This multicenter international study evaluates the performance of established scores (SIRS, LODS, qSOFA, SOFA, NEWS) in predicting severe outco
