This article examines the impact of populist governance on state–civil society relations in Sweden, a country traditionally marked by collaborative relations and democratic stability. Focusing on reforms in adult education and international aid under a government supported by a right-wing populist party, the study explores how these changes are perceived by civil society organizations (CSOs). Draw
Spectroscopic studies of energy transport through the photosynthetic apparatus have been crucial to expanding our understanding of biological energy conversion. Correlating spectroscopic information to the electronic structure and function in these complex systems remains highly challenging, however. While cryogenic experimental conditions help in improving the effective spectral resolution and sa
This article provides an introduction to Journal of Tourism History’s special issue on the twentieth-century spa. It addresses the imbalance in the state of research regarding spas between the ‘long’ nineteenth and the ‘short’ twentieth century and suggests a more inclusive approach to the latter, before introducing the contributions to this volume.
Background: There are currently no major disease-modifying treatments for neurodegenerative disorders such as Huntington's disease (HD), amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and frontotemporal dementia (FTD). HD is caused by a CAG repeat expansion in the huntingtin gene and is characterised by the accumulation of mutant huntingtin (mHTT) protein. ALS is defined by the degeneration of motor neurons
Sexual dysfunction (SD), more specifically vasculogenic erectile dysfunction (ED) in men and female sexual arousal disorder (FSAD) in women, is increasingly recognized as a marker of cardiovascular disease (CVD). While extensive literature documents vasculogenic ED as an early warning sign of coronary artery disease (CAD) and other atherosclerotic manifestations, the evidence for analogous phenome
Background and purpose — Ankle arthrodesis (AA) and total ankle replacement are the 2 main surgical treatment options for advanced ankle arthritis but information is scarce on satisfaction and patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) after surgery. We aimed to evaluate postoperative satisfaction, changes in PROMs from before to 2 years after AA, and factors associated with the outcome.Methods — T
Background: The need for complete staging surgery including hysterectomy for all age patients with borderline ovarian tumors (BOT) is debatable, considering fertility in younger patients and potential higher morbidity in older patients. We aimed to investigate the relapse risk and overall survival in a cohort including patients who underwent conservative surgery (organ-preserving procedures) to miBackground:The need for complete staging surgery including hysterectomy for all age patients with borderline ovarian tumors (BOT) is debatable, considering fertility in younger patients and potential higher morbidity in older patients.

The growing demand for lithium-ion batteries has intensified the need for efficient processes to produce lithium hydroxide (LiOH), a compound with superior performance in cathode manufacturing compared to lithium carbonate. Conventional LiOH production from brine involves the lime conversion of lithium carbonate, which increases costs and process complexity. In this study, Donnan dialysis using an
ATLAS, a general-purpose experiment at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), makes use of a large internationally-distributed computing infrastructure, including over 106 TB of managed data on disk and tape and almost one million simultaneously running CPU cores. Upgrades for the High-Luminosity LHC (HL-LHC) will increase the required computing resources by a factor of 3–4 by the beginning of the 2030s
A search for pair-production of vector-like leptons is presented, considering their decays into a third-generation Standard Model (SM) quark and a vector leptoquark (U1) as predicted by an ultraviolet-complete extension of the SM, referred to as the ‘4321’ model. Given the assumed decay of U1 into third-generation SM fermions, the final state can contain multiple τ-leptons and b-quarks. This searc
A calibration of the ATLAS flavour-tagging algorithms using a new calibration procedure based on optimal transportation maps is presented. Simultaneous, continuous corrections to the b-jet, c-jet, and light-flavour jet classification probabilities from jet-tagging algorithms in simulation are derived for b-jets using tt¯→eμννbb data. After application of the derived calibration maps, closure betwe
This article reports on a search for dijet resonances using 132 fb−1 of pp collision data recorded at (Formula presented) ¼ 13 TeV by the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider. The search is performed solely on jets reconstructed within the ATLAS trigger to overcome bandwidth limitations imposed on conventional single-jet triggers, which would otherwise reject data from decays of sub-TeV dij
Smart grids are widely promoted as efficient, low-carbon solutions for energy transitions, yet their governance often treats digital infrastructure as immaterial and uniformly beneficial. This obscures the material, temporal, and justice dimensions that shape real-world outcomes. We introduce Circular Grid Governance (CGG), a framework that integrates circular-economy principles, lifecycle thinkin
Higgs boson production cross-sections via gluon–gluon fusion and vector-boson fusion in proton–proton collisions are measured in the H→WW∗→ℓνℓν decay channel. The Large Hadron Collider delivered proton–proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 13TeV between 2015 and 2018, which were recorded by the ATLAS detector, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 140fb-1. The total cross-sections
A search for single production of a vector-like quark Q, which could be either a singlet T, with charge 23, or a Y from a (T, B, Y) triplet, with charge −43, is performed using data from proton-proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 13 TeV. The data correspond to the full integrated luminosity of 140 fb−1 recorded with the ATLAS detector during Run 2 of the Large Hadron Collider. The anal
Digital technologies in welfare organizations frequently generate gaps, ambiguities, and misalignments that require professional intervention. Yet prior research has tended to portray frontline workers mainly as resistant or adaptive actors, leaving under-examined their active contributions to sustaining broader digital infrastructures.

Accessibility to art and cultural activities is a topic with increasing attention. Most municipalities in the Scandinavian countries have kulturskoler (extra curricular schools of music and performing arts) that offer training and experiences in – and through – art and culture subjects for children and young people. But the users of these institutions are not representative for the society around
