Popular Abstract in German Einführung in die Astrometrie Ziele Astrometrie ist das Forschungsfeld der Astronomie, das sich mit der Vermessung der Positionen von Sternen und anderen Himmelskörpern beschäftigt. Das klingt zunächst vielleicht trivial, aber die unglaublich großen Entfernungen machen astrometrische Messungen äußerst schwierig. Eins der Ziele ist es, eine dreidimensionale Karte der Ste

Readouts that define the physiological distributions of drugs in tissues are an unmet challenge and at best imprecise, but are needed in order to understand both the pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic properties associated with efficacy. Here we demonstrate that it is feasible to follow the in vivo transport of unlabeled drugs within specific organ and tissue compartments on a platform that appli

Drawing upon Transition and Technological Innovation Systems' theory, the author analyzed the process by which the Nicaraguan electricity sub-sector transitions towards renewable energy generation, the actors and networks of actors that play central parts in this process, the regulatory infrastructure that frames actors' actions and the factors and mechanisms that drive and block technolog

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to enhance the thermal performance in the labyrinth channel by different ribs shape. The labyrinth channel is a relatively new cooling structure to decrease the temperature near the trailing region of gas turbine. Design/methodology/approach: Based on the geometric similarity, a simplified geometric model is used. The k − ω turbulence model is used to close th

Oculomotor behavior reveals, not only the acquisition of visual information at fixation, but also the accumulation of information in memory across subsequent fixations. Two candidate measures were considered as indicators of such dynamic visual memory load: fixation duration and pupil size. While recording these measures, we displayed an arrangement of 3, 4 or 5 targets among distractors. Both occ

Plant size has been hypothesized to be a major driver of biotic interactions. However, it is little understood how plant size affects plant mutualists vs. antagonists and the plant's resulting reproductive success. We established a common garden experiment covering an interspecific plant size gradient (from 10 to 130 cm height) across 21 annual Brassicaceae species, thereby standardizing features

Våldtäkt är ett utav de mest kränkande brott en person kan utsättas för och är ett ämne som ständigt upprör och leder till diskussion. Förhoppningsvis kan denna diskussion leda till att vi närmar oss en lösning som minskar våldtäkterna. En viktig del av lösningen är en effektiv lagstiftning. Idag grundar sig den svenska våldtäktbestämmelsen på tvång medan man i England och Wales valt att grunda de

Hushållens skuldsättningsgrad är av intresse för en mängd instanser i samhället eftersom denna bland annat kan ge en bild av hur allvarligt en ekonomisk kris skulle drabba hushållen. Om man kan hitta en modell som väldigt väl förklarar hushållens skuldsättningsnivå kan man eventuellt också upptäcka potentiellt farliga situationer i ekonomin tidigare och då ha möjlighet att sätta in åtgärder mot de

Mutual fund savings in Sweden has during the last 40 years gone from close to nil to represent a large portion of the private and public savings within the country. However, in recent years, the occurrence of closet indexing has been brought to light by researchers and media. Closet indexing is considered to be the fund manager’s failure to manage the fund portfolio as actively as is otherwise adv

MAX IV is a synchrotron facility currently running 14 beamlines hosting about 1000 users per year. It is one of the best of its kind; producing high quality Xrays at the forefront of synchrotron science. To have a beamline or a synchrotron functional, every equipment used needs to be placed in the workspace with high precision. In the current setup, this is supported by bluelining, a technique to
