In a world characterized by democratic decline, this book explores the ways in which struggles for feminist, queer and trans rights build imaginaries and shared hopes. Drawing on global and local ethnographic studies, contributors examine protests against the rise of ultra-conservative, right-wing, anti-gender and anti-feminist actors.Contending with neoliberal regimes and actors pursuing a politi
We know little about the odds of growing old in the later Middle Ages because reconstructions of the longevity and life expectancy of populations require baptismal, marriage, and death registers, which only gradually appear after 1500. The few earlier reconstructions that are available concern males; the female experience of ageing is mostly based on small samples of elite women who lived in the M
Samhället behöver utvecklas i en hållbar riktning. Ett sätt att bidra till det är att överflytta motoriserade transporter till hållbara färdmedel, som cykling. För att öka cyklingen spelar infrastrukturen en viktig roll och det behövs cykelvägar av bra kvalitet. Det saknas emellertid kunskap om cykelvägarnas nedbrytning. Den här artikeln ämnar undersöka vilken typ av skador som återfinns på svenskThere is a need to move society in a sustainable direction. One way to contribute to this move is to change to more sustainable transport modes, such as cycling. To increase cycling, the infrastructure is important, and good quality cycle paths are needed. However, little is known about the degradation of cycle paths. This paper aims to investigate what modes of pavement distress are found on muni
As a contribution to the Symposium on Protest and Legal Mobilization, this blog post examines the multifaceted ways in which the Yazidi diaspora in Sweden has pursued justice in the aftermath of the 2014 genocide. It highlights how prosecutions under universal jurisdiction, while symbolically significant, often remain distant from victim-survivors’ lived experiences, and how rituals, commemoration
Diffusion–relaxation correlation multidimensional MRI (MD-MRI) replaces voxel-averaged diffusion tensor quantities and (Formula presented.) and (Formula presented.) relaxation rates with their multidimensional distributions, enabling the selective extraction and mapping of specific diffusion–relaxation spectral ranges that correspond to different cellular features. This approach has the potential
The C-14 results from the study demonstrate that, although the liquid discharges from the Ringhals Nuclear Power Plant (NPP) are assumed to be small compared to the total operational C-14 releases, the resulting C-14 levels in marine biota can be substantially higher than in terrestrial biota. The fndings indicate that the chemical speciation of discharged C-14 plays a critical role in its transfe
The gender pay-gap is not a new phenomenon in Brazil. Since the increase of female participation on the labor market, the gap has remained a persistent problem that has generated a wide range of studies on the topic. The Human Capital Theory argues that individuals’ education and on-the-job experience are essential determinants on wage estimations. This assessment is not disputed in the literature
Version 3 av ecoinvent är den första databasen att erbjuda möjligheten att koppla samman livscykelinventeringar (LCI) utefter olika länkningsalgoritmer. Genom dessa länkningsalgoritmer tar ecoinvent nu fram bakgrundslivscykelinventeringar med både medeldata och långsiktig marginaldata (t.ex. över elmarknader i olika länder). Idealt sett representerar långsiktig marginaldata över elmarknader den ytVersion 3 of the ecoinvent database is the first background database to offer the possibility to link life cycle inventories (LCI) according to different linking algorithms. Using those algorithms, ecoinvent now provides both average and long-term, marginal background LCI data, (e.g. for electricity markets for different countries). Long-term, marginal data for electricity markets ideally represen
This study aims to explore the impact of paid work in the Ethiopian export-oriented garment industry on women’s empowerment, as perceived by the women themselves. The study first explores the reasons for why and how women pursue paid work in the industry. It further examines the ways in which paid work might affect women’s intra-household decision-making. By focusing on the experiences among vario
Pangenomes are collections of annotated genome sequences of multiple individuals of a species1. The structural variants uncovered by these datasets are a major asset to genetic analysis in crop plants2. Here we report a pangenome of barley comprising long-read sequence assemblies of 76 wild and domesticated genomes and short-read sequence data of 1,315 genotypes. An expanded catalogue of sequence
This review covers recent advances (2023–2024) in neuroimaging research into the pathophysiology, progression, and treatment of Alzheimer's disease (AD) and related dementias (ADRD). Despite the rapid emergence of blood-based biomarkers, neuroimaging continues to be a vital area of research in ADRD. Here, we discuss neuroimaging as a powerful tool to topographically visualize and quantify amyloid,
High-order harmonic generation (HHG) in gases has been studied for almost 40 years under many different conditions, varying the laser wavelength, intensity, focusing geometry, target design, gas species, etc. However, no systematic investigation of the effect of the pulse duration has been performed despite its expected impact on phase-matching of the high-order harmonics. Here, we develop a compa
The long-term effects of COVID-19, known as post-COVID condition (PCC), are still not fully understood. This systematic review synthesizes findings from Nordic registry studies to highlight long-term outcomes after COVID-19 infection. Twenty-two studies, primarily reflecting the pre-omicron and early vaccination phases, reveal increased primary care use for respiratory issues and fatigue in the su
Fire drills are a commonly-used training method for improving how people act in emergency situations. This article deals with fire drills in early childhood education facilities and analyses data gathered from an online survey of 1 151 Czech nursery schools (23.5% of nursery schools invited to participate, 21.5% of all officially registered nursery schools in Czechia). It provides recommendations
The properties of elementary excited states in the B850 band of the peripheral light-harvesting antenna (LH2) of the photosynthetic purple bacterium Rhodobacter sphaeroides has been studied at room temperature by means of femtosecond transient absorption experiments combined with computer simulations. Polarized pump-probe kinetics have a fast component of 100 and 65 fs for the anisotropic and isot
The first measurement of HΛ3 and H‾Λ‾3 differential production with respect to transverse momentum and centrality in Pb–Pb collisions at sNN=5.02 TeV is presented. The HΛ3 has been reconstructed via its two-charged-body decay channel, i.e., HΛ3→3He+π−. A Blast-Wave model fit of the pT-differential spectra of all nuclear species measured by the ALICE collaboration suggests that the HΛ3 kinetic free
Aqueous rechargeable batteries are appealing alternatives for large-scale energy storage. Reversible cycling of high-energy aqueous batteries has been showcased using highly concentrated aqueous electrolytes, which lead to a significantly suppressed water activity and formation of a stable solid-electrolyte interphase (SEI). However, the high salt concentration inevitably raises the cost and compr
High-resolution transmission spectroscopy has become a powerful tool for detecting atomic and ionic species in the atmospheres of ultra-hot Jupiters. In this study, we demonstrate for the first time that the Australian-built Veloce spectrograph on the 3.9-m Anglo-Australian Telescope can resolve atmospheric signatures from transiting exoplanets. We observed a single transit of the ultra-hot Jupite
