When small quantum systems, atoms or molecules, absorb a high-energy photon, electrons are emitted with a well-defined energy and a highly symmetric angular distribution, ruled by energy quantization and parity conservation. These rules are based on approximations and symmetries which may break down when atoms are exposed to ultrashort and intense optical pulses. This raises the question of their
Popular Abstract in Swedish Frågan om Amerikas kulturella ställning i förhållande till den övriga världen är av central betydelse för all forskning som berör Amerikas och det moderna Europas historia. Det här förhållandet har blivit påtagligare under senare tid beroende av vårt samhälles senare "kris" med det s. k. "postmoderna" - och "globaliserade" - perspektivets genombrott. I avhandlingen presThe question of America’s cultural position in relation to the rest of the world is essential for all research connected to America and to the history of modern Europe. This situation has become obvious over the last years because of our societies’ latest “crisis”, with the consecration of the “post-modern” and “global” view of society, history and culture. The aim of the dissertation is to analys
As the hardest tissue formed by vertebrates, enamel represents nature's engineering masterpiece with complex organizations of fibrous apatite crystals at the nanometer scale. Supramolecular assemblies of enamel matrix proteins (EMPs) play a key role as the structural scaffolds for regulating mineral morphology during enamel development. However, to achieve maximum tissue hardness, most organic con
The purpose of this paper is to discuss the conceptualisation of bibliometric analyses in terms of the levels on which they are performed, adding contextual factors to the dimension where the size of the unit being analysed is considered. Based on empirical investigations of resource allocation systems and research evaluation practices, as well as the previous literature conceptualising bibliometr
Geoelectrical techniques have long standing potential for imaging sites contaminated by dense non-aqueous phase liquids (DNAPLs). Recent work explored the effectiveness of time-lapse DC resistivity to monitor DNAPL source zone remediation. A fundamental component of the work was the development of a unique and comprehensive linkage between well-established DNAPL and DC resistivity models, with the
A discussion of moral choice and its reasoning, using the rescue of the Danish Jews from Nazi persecution in October 1943 as an example
Buddhist schools of thought share two fundamental assumptions about language. On the one hand, language (śabda) is identified with conceptual thinking (kalpanā), which according to the Buddhist doctrine (dharma) separates us from the momentary and fleeting nature of reality (satya, “truth”). Language is comprised of generally applicable forms, which fuel the reificatory proclivity for clinging to
Background: Research on intentions to use telemedicine in primary care is sparse. This survey study explored primary care physicians’ intentions to use telemedicine by using a newly developed questionnaire: Physician Attitudes and Intentions to use Telemedicine. Methods: An anonymous web-survey with questions focusing on theory-based predictors of behavioral intentions such as Attitudes, Subjectiv
Austrian artist and director of ZKM Center for Art and Media in Karlsruhe, Germany, Peter Weibel (Odessa, 1944), curates a book/catalogue of the mythical exhibition Sound Art, Sound as Medium of Art, that took place between March 2012 and February 2013 in Karlsruhe, with nearly one thousand images of sound art pieces. Along with a very detailed historical trace of sound as a form of art, the book
This chapter is a micro-sociological exploration of the justifications that Danish general practitioners adopt to support antibiotic usage in their clinical practices. Based on qualitative in-depth interviews with 21 general practitioners in Denmark, the chapter looks upon the clinic as a particular social world (a justificatory regime) in which different antibiotic treatment strategies are qualif
Although the projected changes in the climate include considerable uncertainties, especially with downscaling, there is irrefutable evidence that the climate is changing at an unprecedented and alarming rate. In recent studies, some of the potential climate-change risks on bridges have been identified. The sheer number of these potential risks provokes two questions. Firstly, for a certain risk of
This study utilizes a novel analytical framework to examine large-scale development-focused scholarship programs for international higher education. The Indonesia Endowment Fund for Education (LPDP) is systematically analyzed here utilizing its 2013–2022 annual reports. Applying the orders of worth approach, LPDP’s claims and justifications towards the common good are studied, alongside the organi
Much foundational work in Sociology of Law (SoL) has considered the role of law in society as well as the role of society in law. This duality has opened for nuanced accounts of the impact of formal law (referred as legal norms herein) by empirically studying formal laws and everyday interactions making up various social norms which may at times align with one another or be in conflict. Recently,
I denna avhandling undersöks opinionsundersökningens introduktion i Sverige under mitten av 1900-talet. Fokus ligger på Svenska Gallupinstitutet AB, som 1941 etablerades som landets första opinionsinstitut och som introducerade den urvalsbaserade enkätundersökningen som ett nytt medium genom vilket den allmänna opinionen kunde representeras. De hade i princip monopol på området till 1950-talets miThis thesis examines the introduction and impact of opinion polling in Sweden during the mid-twentieth century, focusing on the activities of the Swedish Gallup Institute (Svenska Gallupinstitutet). Established in 1941 as the country’s first polling organization, the institute introduced sample surveys as a new means of representing public opinion and had a near-monopoly on polling until its decli
This article examines changes in the repertoire of contention in Sweden during the crucial years of democratisation. Based on a dataset of applications to organise public marches in Stockholm 1887-1920, the study looks at the overall trends in the political use of demonstrations: which organisations applied to stage demonstrations and which organisations obtained permission from the authorities.
