The one-proton knockout channel from 6He (240 MeV/u) impinging on a carbon target has been investigated. The triton fragments originating from this channel were detected in coincidence with the two neutrons. A broad structure, peaked at 3 MeV above the t+2n threshold, is observed in the t+n+n-relative energy spectrum. It is shown that this structure is mainly due to a I(pi)=1/2(+) resonance as exp
A compilation of the applied experimental conditions when studying metal ion adsorption onto kraft fibres, and the resulting conclusion, revealed that the ionic strength conditions used during the experiments were an important dividing factor. At low ionic strengths, the conclusion has regularly been that the Donnan ion-exchange model could correctly predict the adsorption while, at higher ionic s
Popular Abstract in Swedish Mer än 75 % av energianvändningen i världen kommer idag från förbränning av fossila bränslen, biobränslen och avfall. Trots att alternativa energikällor är på framfart kommer förbränning stå för den största andelen av världens energianvändning även de kommande decennierna. Tyvärr medför förbränning flera negativa konsekvenser, såsom ökad koldioxidhalt i atmosfären och uLaser-induced incandescence, LII, is a laser-diagnostic technique that can be used to measure the volume fraction and the sizes of soot particles suspended in a gas, such as within a combustion process or in its exhausts. The technique is based on the facts that the time-decay of the radiation from laser-heated soot particles is directly related to the particle size in the probed volume, and that
We present the use of capillary driven flow over patterned surfaces to achieve cheap and simple, but powerful separation of biologically relevant particle systems. The wide use of microfluidics is often hampered by the propensity for devices to clog due to the small channel sizes and the inability to access the interior of devices for cleaning. Often the devices can only be used for a limited dura
This paper investigates the impact of economic policy uncertainty on the Britishinterwar economy. A new index constructed from contemporary newspapersindicates that this was a period of great uncertainty. Time series and narrativeevidence suggests that this uncertainty reduced output, raised unemployment andcontributed to macroeconomic volatility.
Can art change the world?Issues like climate change and unsustainable natural resource consumption are climbing ever higher on the international political agenda. Scientific reports, media coverage and information campaigns advise the public about these complex matters, including the environmental impact of human activity. It can however be difficult to engage people with facts and figures alone.T
Dysphagia is common in the elderly. This is mainly due to neurodegenerative abnormalities in the central nervous system. The elderly may be able to compensate, to a certain degree, for deterioration of function but the reserve capacity is much less than in younger. Understanding of the normal ageing process as well as disease processes common in the elderly is important for diagnosis and treatment
This chapter analyses the European Union’s efforts to counteract the erosion of member states’ corporate tax bases. The author first describes how multinational enterprises, like Apple, have been able to exploit differences between the tax systems in order to pay less taxes. The author then presents the hypothesis that EU member states have managed to defend their interests in protecting their own
This article investigates the impact of economic policy uncertainty on the British interwar economy. The first type of evidence examined is qualitative. The historical record shows that contemporaries regularly reported the incidence and consequences of major uncertainty shocks. The second type of evidence analysed is quantitative. Based on a new index of economic policy uncertainty constructed fr
Almost all animals, no matter how humble, possess eyes. Only those that live in total darkness, such as in a pitch-dark cave, may lack eyes entirely. Even at tremendous depths in the ocean - where the only lights that are ever seen are rare and fitful sparks of bioluminescence - most animals have eyes, and often surprisingly well-developed eyes. And despite their diversity (there are currently ten
The article deals with Jan Karski and Raoul Wallenberg and the different ways that they have been remembered in Poland and Sweden.
Studies from our and other laboratories have over the last 2 years implicated the existence of multipotent progenitors (MPPs) with combined granulocyte-macrophage, B cell, and T cell potential, but little or no megakaryocyte-erythroid (MkE) potential in the adult bone marrow Lineage (-)SCA-1 +KIT+ (LSK) compartment of multipotent stem and progenitor cells. The evidence for the existence of LSKCD34
