The beamlines at CERN's North and East Areas offer secondary beams in a wide range of momenta between 0.5 GeV/c and 400 GeV/c for fixed-target experiments as well as for test beam campaigns with a flexible configuration and variable beam composition and intensities. Recently, two new facilities for neutrino detectors tests have been established in an extension of the CERN North Area in context of
Asylum-seekers, like any population, need healthcare services, yet national laws sometimes restrict access to such services. The European Social Charter (revised) protects the right to health and medical services. However, the Charter has a complex application, and its scope is limited concerning foreigners. This article analyses to what extent the provisions of the Charter on the right to health
The clinical commissioning of beams for neutron capture therapy involves the measurement and analysis of a large amount of data in various geometries and using various detectors. The process as such is akin to that in the conventional photon and electron radiotherapy field, while the tools, methods and considerations in the field of neutron capture therapy are different. This chapter provides an i
The interatomic Auger effect following O 1s ionization in N2O has been experimentally investigated using multi-electron coincidence spectroscopy. The expected transition energies have been established by comparison to the measured N 1s−1v−1 core-valence double ionization energies. We describe a procedure to eliminate the background of two competing processes contributing spectroscopic signatures t
We present a compilation and analysis of 1099 Holocene relative shore-level (RSL) indicators located around the Baltic Sea including 867 relative sea-level data points and 232 data points from the Ancylus Lake and the following transitional phase. The spatial distribution covers the Baltic Sea and near-coastalareas fairly well, but some gaps remain mainly in Sweden. RSL data follow the standardize
The Whitham equation is a nonlocal shallow water-wave model which combines the quadratic nonlinearity of the KdV equation with the linear dispersion of the full water wave problem. Whitham conjectured the existence of a highest, cusped, traveling-wave solution, and his conjecture was recently verified in the periodic case by Ehrnström and Wahlén. In the present paper we prove it for solitary waves
Translation arrest directed by nascent peptides and small cofactors controls expression of important bacterial and eukaryotic genes, including antibiotic resistance genes, activated by binding of macrolide drugs to the ribosome. Previous studies suggested that specific interactions between the nascent peptide and the antibiotic in the ribosomal exit tunnel play a central role in triggering ribosom
The need for sustainability transitions is widely recognised, along with a concurrent need for the evolution of knowledge systems to inform more effective policy action. Although there are many new policy targets relating to net zero emissions and other sustainability challenges, cities, regional and national governments are struggling to rapidly develop transformational policies to achieve them.
We present stellar parameters, stellar ages, and detailed elemental abundances for Na, Mg, Al, Si, Ca, Ti, Cr, Fe, and Ni for 32 solar sibling candidates. Technique of chemical tagging gives us a high probability that four stars might be from the same open cluster. Only one candidate HIP 40317 which has solar metallicity and age could be a solar sibling. We performed simulations of the Sun's birth
Green economy is a concept frequently used by governments and international institutions to promote sustainable transformations of the economy. In this study, we explore how the transition towards a green economy is being conceptualised in policy terms in the three Nordic countries Denmark, Norway, and Sweden. Comparing these cases, we analyse strategic policy documents on green growth, circular e
Activatable fluorescent probes have been successfully used as molecular tools for biomedical research in the last decades. Fluorescent probes allow the detection of molecular events, providing an extraordinary platform for protein and cellular research. Nevertheless, most of the fluorescent probes reported are susceptible to interferences from endogenous fluorescence (background signal) and limite
Pediatric obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) clusters around three major symptom dimensions: contamination/cleaning, symmetry/ordering, and disturbing thoughts/checking. The Obsessive-Compulsive Inventory-Child Version (OCI-CV) is a self-report questionnaire that provides scores along six theory-based OCD dimensions, but no study has evaluated how well OCI-CV identifies clinically significant sym
The clinical commissioning of beams for neutron capture therapy involves the measurement and analysis of a large amount of data in various geometries and using various detectors. We have attempted methods and considerations common to the radiotherapy field, while particular care and attention is given to the specifics of the field of neutron capture therapy. This chapter provides an introduction a
BACKGROUND: The tau-PET radiotracer [18F]flortaucipir enables in vivo detection of tau pathology in Alzheimer's Disease (AD) and has recently been FDA- and EMA-approved for clinical use. To support its implementation, we assessed tau-PET's positive predictive value (PPV) and negative predictive value (NPV) for clinico-pathological AD while accounting for age, amyloid-status, and pre-PET diagnostic
Background: Normal hand function relies on a finely tuned interaction between the sensory and motor systems within the central and peripheral nervous systems. The central nervous system continuously adapts to changed activity, environmental changes, learning, and injury — a phenomenon known as neuroplasticity. The neuroplasticity is a life-long ability and presents opportunities for therapeutic in
The T-REX neutron spectrometer at the European Spallation Source will use Multi-Grid Technology, which is a voxelised proportional counter relying on 10B4C coatings to detect neutrons scattered by the sample under investigation. Measurements of the position dependence of pulse-height and relative detection efficiency of a Multi-Grid prototype of the T-REX spectrometer are presented for two differe
Shared ground heat exchange can deliver low-carbon electrified heat where individual heat pumps or heat networks are not feasible, such as in terraced homes. However, there is a policy gap around these mid-scale heat solutions. We outline the benefits and challenges of shared ground heat exchange, and actions needed by policy, housing, and innovation stakeholders to support further deployment.
This paper examines income and employment outcomes for immigrants in Sweden’smost immigrant-dense neighbourhoods between 1998 and 2022. While relativeemployment among immigrants has improved, relative incomes in theseneighbourhoods have stagnated or declined. The most plausible explanation for thepersisting income gap and the shrinking employment gap between immigrant-dense and other neighbourhood
