The future opportunities for high-density QCD studies with ion and proton beams at the LHC are presented. Four major scientific goals are identified: the characterisation of the macroscopic long wavelength Quark-Gluon Plasma (QGP) properties with unprecedented precision, the investigation of the microscopic parton dynamics underlying QGP properties, the development of a unified picture of particle

Skildring av de profranska stämningarna inom Lunds universitet vid tiden för fransk-tyska kriget samt hur dessa sedan successivt förbyttes mot en ökad orientering mot Tyskland.

Membrane-bound water channels known as aquaporins (AQPs) facilitate water transport across biological membranes along osmotic gradients. Since all living cells depend on their ability to maintain water homeostasis, this must be tightly regulated. In eukaryotes, this is achieved by gating, which involves a conformational change of the protein, thereby physically blocking water transport, or by traf

The formation of biomolecular condensates inside cells often involve intrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs), and several of these IDPs are also capable of forming dropletlike dense assemblies on their own, through liquid-liquid phase separation. When modeling thermodynamic phase changes, it is well known that finite-size scaling analysis can be a valuable tool. However, to our knowledge, this ap

We present a microfluidic device that can sort nanosized extracellular vesicles (EVs) based on electrokinetics and Deterministic Lateral Displacement (DLD). The device is made from PDMS using standard soft-lithography, can separate particles down to 200 nm, and what is more, can achieve almost two orders of magnitude higher throughput than an otherwise single electrokinetic DLD device.

We present a method to rapidly fabricate a large number of thermoplastic microfluidic systems where horizontal microchannels are separated by a porous membrane for modelling biological barriers. We optimize and combine solvent bonding, milling and laser cutting to fabricate in excess of 100 devices in two days. The optimized protocol relies on a commercial solvent blend, retention grooves for solv

Normal sexual differentiation requires complex molecular events to take place in a precise order, and even though much knowledge has been gained in recent decades, further research is still needed to understand the pathogenesis of different disorders of sexual differentiation. For the clinician who is confronted with a child with sexual ambiguity, it is most important not to guess the sex but to i

The latest version of the Swiss standard for building acoustics (SIA181) introduced a new measurement method, based on a balanced- Arm hammer, for evaluating the decoupling performance of service equipment. This method was developed for reproducing in a standard manner the manipulation of service equipment in bathrooms and kitchens. In this study, we are investigating the relevance of such method

This article investigates the translation of Good Night Storiesfor Rebel Girls: 100 Tales of Extraordinary Women, a children’s bookwritten and published by Elena Favilli and Francesca Cavallo in 2016.Within the framework of Gideon Toury’s Descriptive Translation Studiesand Katharina Reiss’ text typology, the study focuses on the Swedish trans-lation Godnattsagor för rebelltjejer: 100 berättelser o

Divorce increased dramatically during the twentieth century across the western world. There is surprisingly little research on the determinants of divorce during this transition. We investigate micro-level sociodemographic determinants of divorce in Sweden 1922–1967 using longitudinal data at individual and household level from southern Sweden, focusing on the associations between divorce and wome

Technological innovation increasingly depends on multiscalar actor networks and institutions. However, the developers of many conceptual frameworks explaining innovation success have paid only limited attention to this new reality, due to their focus on regions and countries as agents that shape innovation governance and as containers that provide institutional conditions for innovation success.
