The European Spallation Source requires a pulsed linac with an average beam power on the target of 5 MW, which is about five times higher than the most powerful spallation source in operation today. Over 97 % of the acceleration occurs in superconducting cavities. ESS will be the first accelerator to employ double spoke cavities to accelerate beam. Accelerating gradients of 9 MV/meter is required
We consider thermal fluid structure interaction with a partitioned approach, where typically, a finite volume and a finite element code would be coupled. As a model problem, we consider two coupled Poisson problems with heat conductivities $$\lambda _1$$, $$\lambda _2$$ in one dimension on intervals of length $$l:1$$ and $$l:2$$. Hereby, we consider linear discretizations on arbitrary meshes, such
Objective: We evaluated the claim that interventions to improve academic achievement can reduce the risk for alcohol use disorder (AUD). Method: Using nationwide data for individuals born in Sweden from 1972 to 1981 (n = 930,182), we conducted instrumental variable and co-relative analyses of the association between academic achievement and AUD with a mean 21.4-year follow-up. Our instru-ment, use
The two lowest potential energy surfaces for C(3P)+NO(2Π) have been investigated. The stationary points were first located using CASSCF gradient calculations and the geometries reoptimized using complete active space second-order perturbation theory. Zero-point corrections have been included in the energetics. In addition to the three linear conformations CNO, NCO and CON, a previously unreported
This paper discusses social science education in four Swedish upper secondary schools as conceptualized – by teachers and students – and as carried out in the classroom. More specifically, it addresses education on migration, public international law and human rights in a classroom where about a third of the students have immigrant background. Analysing data collected through classroom observation
Donald Trump’s decision to recognise Jerusalem as the capital of Israel, and start preparations for the US to move its embassy from Tel Aviv to the contested city, has the potential to further inflame tensions across the Middle East.
A search for the narrow structure, X(5568), reported by the D0 Collaboration in the decay sequence X→Bs0π±, Bs0→J/ψφ, is presented. The analysis is based on a data sample recorded with the ATLAS detector at the LHC corresponding to 4.9 fb-1 of pp collisions at 7 TeV and 19.5 fb-1 at 8 TeV. No significant signal was found. Upper limits on the number of signal events, with properties corresponding t
The issue of lag selection in ADF unit root testing is important, even asymptotically, for if the number of lags is not allowed to increase at a certain rate the test might not be correctly sized. However, size control is not the only concern. Indeed, simulations have repeatedly shown how increasing lag lengths tend to be associated with reductions in power, thus adding to the well-known low power
This paper presents the test results of the second prototype of SAMPA, the ASIC designed for the upgrade of read-out front end electronics of the ALICE Time Projection Chamber (TPC) and Muon Chamber (MCH). SAMPA is made in a 130 nm CMOS technology with 1.25 V nominal voltage supply and provides 32 channels, with selectable input polarity, and three possible combinations of shaping time and sensiti
The European League Against Rheumatism recommendations for the management of antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody-associated vasculitis have been recently published. Unique to recommendation development, they were also voted on by members of a learned society. This paper explores the wider validity of the recommendations among people who self-identify as clinicians caring for patients with vasculit
Many natural and industrial proteins are known to have properties that can result in type I hypersensitivity, however, to date, no validated test system exists that can predict the sensitizing potential of these allergens. Thus, the objective of this study was to develop a protocol based on the myeloid cell-based Genomic Allergen Rapid Detection (GARD) assay that can be used to assess and predict
n this study, Jordanian feldspar from Wadi Al-Jayshiah area was invested to evaluate its applicability as raw material for ceramic and industries. The chemical analysis indicated that the average Fe2O3 content is 2.33%, which is very high, compared to commercial ceramic and glass grades feldspar. The SiO2 content in the Wadi Al-Jayshiah feldspar (67.96%) lies within the required amount in commerci
