Acoustic trapping has been shown to be a gentle way of performing non-contact immobilization of cells and particles in microfluidic systems. Acoustic trapping uses localized ultrasonic standing waves that are created in microfluidic channels, cavities or other small, confined spaces. The standing wave creates a pressure node that attracts and holds particles and cells. Commonly, structures in the
Popular Abstract in Swedish De senaste decenniernas forskning om kemiska reaktionsmekanismer har gett resultat som visat sig användbara bl.a. för förståelsen av förbränningsreaktioner, ozonförstöringen i stratosfären och för utvecklingen av syntesmetoder. En stor utmaning vid undersökningar av reaktionsmekanismer utgör det faktum att även till synes enkla kemiska reaktioner ofta har ett kompliceraThe reaction dynamics of several polyatomic systems have been investigated in solution by femtosecond spectroscopy. Tetranitromethane-naphtalene complexes excited in the charge-transfer band at 400 nm undergo dissociative electron transfer, resulting in three primary products: [naphthalene].+, NO2 and C(NO2)3-. It was shown that this triad is formed within 200 fs. The subsequent competing reaction
In conventional MIMO, propagation conditions are often considered wide-sense stationary over the entire antenna array. In massive MIMO systems, where arrays can span over large physical dimensions, the situation is quite different. For instance, significant variations in signal strength, due to shadowing, can be experienced across a large array. These effects vary with propagation environment in w
Combustion modeling based on a multi-step global reaction mechanism [1] is applied to CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) analysis of a scaled swirl-stabilized 4th generation premixed DLE (Dry Low Emission) burner for gas turbines. The flexi-fuel burner consists of a MAIN premixed flame, a premixed PILOT flame and a confined RPL (Rich Pilot Lean) flame. Both steady-state RANS (Reynolds Averaged Nav
DNA shows strong interactions with cationic cosolutes and these have both biological and technological significance. We outline our research on various mixed system of DNA and cationic amphiphiles including the interaction of DNA with simple cationic surfactants as well as the interaction with catanionic mixtures and positively charged catanionic vesicles. An overview from phase behavior to micro
The search for planets around white dwarf stars, and evidence for dynamical instability around them in the form of atmospheric pollution and circumstellar disks, raises questions about the nature of planetary systems that can survive the vicissitudes of the asymptotic giant branch (AGB). We study the competing effects, on planets at several AU from the star, of strong tidal forces arising from the
The main problems in this thesis concern the impact of seasonal variations in daylight and ambient temperature on people's mood and the prevalence of various symptoms related to seasonal affective disorder. Questions are also raised about the role of the indoor environment and of the individual's personality as moderators of such an impact. In contrast to most previous research, the present study
Framväxten av facklig organisering bland olika tjänstemannagrupper inom privat sektor redovisas i denna artikel. Det sker mot bakgrund av att den första större fackliga centralorganisationen i Sverige - DACO (De anställdas centralorganisation) - 1931 bildades just av privatanställda tjänstemän. Genom att använda en rad olika indikatorer på facklig orientering (första kollektivavtalet, första strej
