The negative parity states of Ag105-109 are interpreted according to the generalized particle asymmetric-rotor model. In particular, the influence of the different Nilsson proton orbitals (lying near the Fermi level) on the theoretical level spectra and electromagnetic properties is investigated in detail. Furthermore, the analysis of the wave functions of the theoretical levels, and the contribut
Downlink beamforming in Massive MIMO either relies on uplink pilot measurements--exploiting reciprocity and time-division duplexing (TDD) operation, or on the use of a predetermined grid of beams with user equipments reporting their preferred beams, mostly in frequency-division duplexing (FDD) operation. Massive MIMO in its originally conceived form uses the first strategy, with uplink pilots, whe
This study uses a discontinuity in the Swedish tertiary eligibility requirement to estimate the probability of enrolling in tertiary education, and the payoff thereof. Regression discontinuity results, show that achieving tertiary eligibility in upper-secondary education, increases the probability of enrolling in tertiary education by around 10–15 and 7 percentage points for students who enrolled
This paper presents a preliminary method developed for improved decision-support based on probabilistic methods for risk assessment using building performance simulations. The aim of the method is to support the decision-maker in all stages of the building process when deciding on the design of a building by including uncertainties and quantifying; the probability of fulfilling objectives; energy
We identified clusters of atypical sensory functioning adults with ASC by hierarchical cluster analysis. A new scale for commonly self-reported sensory reactivity was used as a measure. In a low frequency group (n = 37), all subscale scores were relatively low, in particular atypical sensory/motor reactivity. In the intermediate group (n = 17) hyperreactivity, sensory interests and sensory/motor i
Objective. To compare the effect of intraarticular injections of hyaluronan and placebo (vehicle, saline) in patients with knee pain on exertion and with joint cartilage abnormalities. Methods. Fifty-two patients with arthroscopically verified deep cartilage fissures and villus-like flakes in the symptomatic knee were randomly assigned to receive intraarticular injections of 2.5 ml of either hyalu
OBJECTIVES: Peripheral vascular disease (PVD) is an important limiting factor for healing in neuroischemic or ischemic diabetic foot ulcer. The purpose of this study was to identify factors related to healing in patients with diabetes with foot ulcers and severe PVD. METHODS: Patients with diabetes with a foot ulcer, consecutively presenting at a multidisciplinary foot center with a systolic toe p
A search for events containing an isolated electron or muon and missing trans verse momentum produced in e(+/-)p collisions is performed with the H1 and ZEUS detectors at HERA. The data were taken in the period 1994-2007 and correspond to an integrated luminosity of 0.98 fb(-1). The observed event yields are in good overall agreement with the Standard Model prediction, which is dominated by single
The accuracy of auxiliary basis sets derived from Cholesky decomposition of two-electron integrals is assessed for excitation energies calculated at the state-average complete active space self-consistent field (CASSCF) and multiconfigurational second order perturbation theory (CASPT2) levels of theory using segmented as well as generally contracted atomic orbital basis sets. Based on 196 valence
UV-B treatment of thylakoid membranes or fractions derived from them accelerates the first rise (Fo---Fi phase) of variable fluorescence and slows down the second (Fi---Fm) rise. This can be observed for all membrane fractions but to different extents. The grana fraction is affected more by the UV-B treatment than are the intact thylakoids and the stroma lamella fraction. An exogenous electron acc
The purpose of this work is to present results from an ongoing study on how the presence of surfaces influences the buckling properties of nanowires. This study is performed using molecular statics simulations where the interatomic interaction is modelled using an embedded atom potential (EAM) fitted to gold properties. The considered nanowires have rectangular cross sections with cross sectional
Calculated absorbed dose distributions from tangential irradiation of the breast have been compared with TLD measurements in a anthropomorfic body-shaped phantom which has gone through all phases of the radiation treatment planning cycle, including mapping of electron densities with a CT scanner, simulation of beam set-up and several treatments with an accelerator. The absorbed doses, measured in
Alkyl glycosides were synthesised from starch and alcohols using Aspergillus oryzae a-amylase as catalyst. In the degradation of starch by a-amylase, the alcohols competed with water as glycosyl acceptors. In the reaction with methanol, methyl maltoside and methyl maltotrioside were the main alcoholysis products. Conversion of 45 g/1 starch in 30% methanol resulted in a product mixture containing
