The cellphone footage of Daniel Penny, a 24-year-old white man in his twenties, choking the life out of Jordan Neely, a 30-year-old Black man, in a New York City subway car during the summer of 2023 made headlines around the globe. The story took off in part because it was identified by the press as existing within the long history of American vigilantism, one that dates to the very founding of th
Fastställande av faderskap har historiskt haft stor betydelse i Sverige och varit avgörande för barns rättsliga och sociala ställning. Under lång tid gjordes en tydlig åtskillnad mellan barn födda inom och utom äktenskap, där barn utom äktenskap hade begränsade rättigheter. Sexuella relationer utom äktenskap var länge kriminaliserade och det kvarlevande stigmat kom även att prägla lagstiftningen oThe establishment of paternity has historically been of great significance in Sweden and has been decisive for children’s legal and social status. For a long time, a clear distinction was made between children born within and outside of marriage, where children born outside of marriage had limited rights. Sexual relations outside of marriage were long criminalized, and the lingering stigma also ca
Background Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a heterogeneous neurodevelopmental condition influenced by both genetic and environmental factors. Prenatal and perinatal exposures have been implicated in ASD etiology, but their influence may vary across clinical subgroups, including subgroups defined by co-occurring intellectual disability (ID). Methods We conducted a population-based case–control st
The size tunable color of colloidal semiconductor quantum dots (QDs) is probably the most elegant illustration of the quantum confinement effect. As explained by the simple “particle-in-a-box” model, the transition energies between the levels increase when the “box” becomes smaller. To investigate quantum confinement effects, typically a well-defined narrow size distribution of the nanoparticles i
Understanding and managing charge carrier recombination dynamics is crucial for optimizing the performance of metal halide perovskite optoelectronic devices. In this work, we introduce a machine learning-assisted intensity-modulated two-photon photoluminescence microscopy approach for quantitatively mapping recombination processes in MAPbBr3 perovskite microcrystalline films at micrometer-scale re
Organic luminescent narrowband emitters have emerged as promising candidates for wide-color-gamut displays. However, the comprehensive photo-induced structural and vibrational dynamics responsible for the spectral broadening remain poorly understood. In this study, ultrafast spectroscopy is employed to elucidate the excited state dynamics of a sulfone-embedded narrowband emitter, 2tCPD. An intrins
Background: Cataracts are the leading cause of reversible blindness globally, disproportionately affecting populations in low- and middle-income countries. In Ethiopia, cataracts remain a significant public health concern. Despite the effectiveness of cataract surgery in restoring vision, information on recovery time and its predictors remain limited. The aim of this study was to assess time to re
Background: Children aged 0–18 years who need long-term respiratory support rely on medical technology and comprehensive medical care. For this care to be provided at home, access to medical and social support and care is essential. In Sweden, the most notable form is personal care assistance (PCA), which is granted based on legislation and individual authority decisions. We aim to explore the imp
The influence of alkyl chain on the physical and photochemical properties of D-A-π-A-π-A sensitizers (GZ-121 and GZ-124) for dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) was investigated through density functional theory (DFT). Key aspects examined include geometry, optical characteristic, electron injection, intramolecular charge transfer, and dye regeneration. Adsorption models of dye@TiO2, short-circuit
INTRODUCTION: We investigated the natural history of the relationship between PSA at age 60 and lifetime risk of prostate cancer death in an unscreened cohort followed for 40 years, the Malmö Preventive Project. We also investigated whether percent free PSA could risk-stratify men with low PSAs.METHODS: The cohort included 1162 men aged 58-62 at blood draw in 1981-82, with 1151 deaths by December
Objective: The aim of this study is to describe how the use of diagnostic imagingfor prostate cancer (PCa) has evolved over time and to determine whether thereare any differences in access to diagnostic imaging, type of cancers detected, andmortality based on the education level of patients.Methods: 11,063 men were recruited between 1991 and 1996 and thenprospectively followed until 2020. All new
Two-dimensional terahertz spectroscopy (2DTS) is a low-frequency analog of two-dimensional optical spectroscopy that is rapidly maturing as a probe of a wide variety of condensed matter systems. However, a persistent problem with 2DTS is the long experimental acquisition times, which prevent its broader adoption. A potential solution, requiring no increase in experimental complexity, is signal rec
The enhancement of the electromagnetic field elicited by localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) is conducive to the generation of charge carriers, which have an important effect in driving many kinds of chemical reactions. Nonetheless, the short lifespan of charge carriers generated by plasmon (typically femtoseconds to nanoseconds) limits their effectiveness in promoting chemical reactions. H
To evaluate the diagnostic yield of the ECG criteria for ST-elevation myocardial infarction in a large cohort of emergency department chest pain patients, and to determine whether extended ECG criteria or reciprocal ST depression can improve accuracy. Design: Observational, register-based diagnostic study on the accuracy of ECG criteria for ST-elevation myocardial infarction. Between Jan 2010 and
System co-sensitization and extension of the π-conjugated system are recognized as two key strategies for improving the performance of dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs). In this study, density functional theory (DFT) was employed to simulate two experimentally synthesized molecules, RK1 and D205, and to evaluate the performance of their co-sensitization system. Furthermore, molecular design was c
Photo-induced dynamics of electronic processes are driven by the coupling between electronic and nuclear degrees of freedom. Here, we construct one- and two-dimensional organic-inorganic tin halides to investigate how dimensionality controls exciton-phonon coupling and exciton self-trapping. The results show that a one-dimensional system has strong exciton-phonon coupling leading to excitation-ind
With organic solar cells surpassing 20% efficiency, the focus is shifting toward understanding the more complex mechanisms in ternary blends. This work investigates the distinct working principles of ternary organic solar cells based on a polymer donor (D) and a nonfullerene acceptor (NFA), with a fullerene acceptor (FA) as the third component. A systematic comparison between ternary D:NFA:FA syst
Letters and notes that expose collaboration in and between different creative networks and ethical-political theorists, governmental counsellors and personalities from 1886 to 1928 are now more accessible in the Anna Bugge Wicksell collection at the University Library of Lund. Anna Bugge Wicksell had central functions in The Neutral Conference for Continuous Mediation, after which she was co-opted
Achieving upcoming emissions legislation (Euro VI) for heavy trucks is a serious challenge for the manufacturers. Apart from the increasingly strict limits on nitrogen oxides (NOx) and particulate emissions (PM), the limited amount of fossil fuels as well as alarming climate changes simultaneously drives the demand for low CO2 emissions. A likely solution to meet upcoming NOx limits is to use a co
