Scattering amplitudes are often split up into their color (su(N) ) and kinematic components. Since the su(N) gauge part can be described using flows of color, one may anticipate that the su(2 ) ⊕ su(2 ) kinematic part can be described in terms of flows of chirality. In two recent papers we showed that this is indeed the case, introducing the chirality-flow formalism for standard model calculations

The objective of this article is to study the links between the funding of primary education, access to education and economic growth in France in the 19th century. To do this, we use information on the funding allocated by the state, départements, local authorities, and households over the period 1820-1913. Our analysis consists of two stages. Firstly, we analyse the evolution of these different

Wide-spread adoption of solar energy is a key building block in sustainable production and consumption and a circular economy. However, as the market for solar photovoltaics (PV) will grow significantly, so will the demand for raw materials and the potential waste from discarded PV panels. Based on the experience of the European CIRCUSOL innovation action project, we review recent experience in te

A new method for preparing chromatographic supports is described. Porous silica was treated with gaseous silanes and gaseous triethylamine at high temperature and reduced pressure. The silylation procedure was rapid and gave supports with a covalently bound monolayer of aminopropyl-or epoxysilane. Diol silica prepared by gas phase silylation was compared with diol silica prepared in the aqueous or

Today, security can no longer be treated as a secondary issue in embedded and cyber-physical systems. Therefore, one of the main challenges in these domains is the design of secure embedded systems under stringent resource constraints and real-time requirements. However, there exists an inherent trade-off between the security protection provided and the amount of resources allocated for this purpo

We propose a multivariate log-normal distribution to jointly model received power, mean delay, and root mean square (rms) delay spread of wideband radio channels, referred to as the standardized temporal moments. The model is validated using experimental data collected from five different measurement campaigns (four indoor scenarios and one outdoor scenario). We observe that the received power, th

This chapter describes basic principles and recent advances in time-resolved X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy with particular emphasis on studies conducted in complex reaction environments. Specifically, it discusses different ways for obtaining time information and achieving different time resolutions in tr-(AP)XPS experiment, covering timescales from fs to s. This includes experimental setups at

Artikeln kompletterar två tidigare texter i tidskriften Ale 2020: 2–3 om Lyngsjö i Skåne. Elisabeth Reuterswärd söker här bakgrunden till dopfuntens ovanliga motiv, medan Sten Skansjö förklarar utvecklingen i socknen över tid. Denna artikel uppmärksammar, att dopfunten har spår av bemålning, kommenterar kyrkans herrskapsgalleri, korrigerar upplysningarna om antalet gyllene altare i Norden, visar aThe article presents a supplement to two earlier texts in the periodical Ale 2020: 2–3 on Lyngsjö in Scania. Elisabeth Reuterswärd here seeks the background for the unusual motif of the baptismal font, where Sten Skansjö tries to explain the development in the parish over time. The present article draws attention to the fact that the font has traces of painting, comments on the upper gallery of th

We measured absolute cross sections for neutron transfer channels populated in the Rb94+Pb208 binary reaction. Cross sections have been extracted identifying directly the lead isotopes with the high efficiency MINIBALL γ-ray array coupled to a particle detector combined with a radioactive Rb94 beam delivered at Elab=6.2 MeV/nucleon by the HIE-ISOLDE facility. We observed sizable cross sections in

Ikaros is an open framework for system-level brain modeling and real-time robot control. Version 2 of the system includes a range of computational components that implements various algorithms and methods ranging from models of neural circuits to control systems and hardware interfaces for robot. Ikaros supports the design and implementation of large-scale computation models using a flow programmi

For patients with end-stage respiratory diseases, such as COPD, interstitial lung diseases and cystic fibrosis, lung transplantation remains the only treatable option. However, due to increasing demand and limited availability of donor lungs, risk of complications such as acute and chronic rejection, and adverse effects of immunosuppressive treatments, this is not an alternative for the majority o

A reliable method of optimization of polymer gears remains, to date, an open challenge, due to the lack of specific material characterization of polymers and to the complex nonlinear relations between different geometric and operating parameters. For spur and helical gears, the authors herein have developed the optimization algorithm, which primarily enables variation of geometry according to vari
