Supercrystals of lead-halide perovskite nanocrystals combine the semiconducting properties of bulk perovskites with quantum confinement effects and extend them to the macroscopic scale. Supercrystals assembled via a two-layer phase diffusion process using an acetonitrile antisolvent were recently shown to be unusually robust. We investigate how the acetonitrile-assisted self-assembly process influ
Battery electric trucks and autonomous driving systems are each approaching commercial viability for long-haul freight. Current development treats these technologies as independent improvements to diesel operations. This thesis examines the operational and economic synergies that emerge when autonomy and Megawatt Charging System infrastructure are deployed together rather than in isolation. The a
Infective endocarditis (IE) is most often caused by alpha-hemolytic streptococci or Staphylococcus aureus and is characterized by the presence of vegetations on the heart valves. Here we present a case of IE caused by Streptococcus pyogenes, a distinctly uncommon IE-pathogen, where no vegetations could be visualized on repeated echocardiography. Diagnosis was instead evident from septic embolizati
Denna forskningsrapport inom ramen för ett MSB uppdrag identifierar och kartlägger relevanta datamängder för att bedöma tvärsektoriella sårbarheter för samhällsviktiga verksamheter och kritiska infrastrukturer på nationell svensk nivå. Totalt identifierades 108 datamängder, varav 49 bedöms vara relevanta för analyser på nationell nivå, 54 på regional nivå och 37 på lokal nivå. Identifierad och samThis commissioned research report identifies and maps out relevant data sets to assess cross-sectoral vulnerabilities of vital societal functions and critical infrastructures at a Swedish national level. In total 108 data sets were identified, of which 49 are deemed to be relevant for analyses at the national level, 54 at the regional level and 37 at the local level. Although of high usefulness fo
In recent years, weather-related extreme events have shown the limits of technical approaches to urban water challenges and highlighted the urgent need to rethink the relationship between cities and water and to see water as a partner in shaping transformative, climate-safe and just urban futures. However, existing scientific studies depicting future trajectories of urban water management have str
INTRODUCTION: Health promotion in everyday settings is of great importance for both individual health and organizational sustainability. A settings-based approach emphasizes how social, physical, and organizational contexts shape the conditions for health. Central principles in health promotion are participation, empowerment, and person-centeredness, which emphasize the active role of the person o
An assessment of the global progress in climate change adaptation is urgently needed. Despite a rising awareness that adaptation should involve diverse societal actors and a shared sense of responsibility, little is known about the types of actors, such as state and non-state, and their roles in different types of adaptation responses as well as in different regions. Based on a large n-structured
A less studied aspect in research on globalisation and outsourced production is how work in the global value chain is infused with precarity and may even become a space of harassment and violence, including sexual abuse. This themed section seeks to contribute to the literature on gender-based violence in factories where production has been outsourced to the Global South, especially Asia. In this
This narrative Review explores the role of hyperinsulinaemia as a potential independent contributor to obesity and cardiometabolic diseases. We argue that scientific discussions about the role of hyperinsulinaemia as a causal factor in these conditions have not sufficiently distinguished between postprandial insulin excursions and chronically elevated basal levels of insulin. We summarize findings
In this letter, we present the first measurement of direct photons at the transverse momentum of 1
Measurements of jet substructure are key to probing the energy frontier at colliders, and many of them use track-based observables which take advantage of the angular precision of tracking detectors. Theoretical calculations of track-based observables require ‘track functions’, which characterize the transverse momentum fraction rq carried by charged hadrons from a fragmenting quark or gluon. This
A search for decays of the Higgs boson into a Z boson and a light resonance, with a mass of 0.5–3.5 GeV, is performed using the full 140 fb−1 dataset of 13 TeV proton–proton collisions recorded by the ATLAS detector during LHC Run 2. Leptonic decays of the Z boson and hadronic decays of the light resonance are considered. The resonance can be interpreted as a J/ψ or ηc meson, an axion-like particl
The distribution of angular correlations between prompt charm hadrons and primary charged particles in pp collisions is sensitive to the charm-quark hadronisation process. In this letter, charm-baryon correlations are measured for the first time by studying the azimuthal-angle difference between charged particles and prompt Λc+ baryons produced in pp collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of s=13 T
Nature-based solutions (NBS) have emerged as an important concept to build climate resilience in cities whilst providing a wide range of ecological, economic, and social co-benefits. With the ambition of increasing NBS uptake, diverse actors have been developing means to demonstrate and prove these benefits. However, the multifunctionality, the different types of benefits provided, and the context
Given the contested nature of urban futures, we approach the term “transition” as a floating signifier to investigate imaginaries of transformation. Focusing on urban mobility transitions, we demonstrate the plurality of associations with a post-transition future. This perspective allows the identification of underlying tensions and incommensurabilities between competing visions of the future. Q m
Introduction: The Chilean Society of Bariatric and Metabolic Surgery, together with other scientific societies, led a process for adapting the Canadian clinical practice guideline for obesity in adults for Chile. The aim of the Canadian guideline, among its main objectives, was to propose changes in obesity management using a chronic disease framework and focusing on improving patient-centered hea
INTRODUCTION: Parents can act as important agents of change and support for healthy childhood growth and development. Studies have found that parents may not be able to accurately perceive their child's weight status. The purpose of this study was to measure parental perceptions of their child's weight status and to identify predictors of potential parental misperceptions.METHODS: We used data fro
