The energy and mass measurements of jets are crucial tasks for the Large Hadron Collider experiments. This paper presents a new calibration method to simultaneously calibrate these quantities for large-radius jets measured with the ATLAS detector using a deep neural network (DNN). To address the specificities of the calibration problem, special loss functions and training procedures are employed,
Across languages, the species–typical vocalization by domes-tic cats (Felis catus silvestris) is transcribed similarly, typicallycorresponding to [miau:] or [waU:]. Such consistent and ubiqui-tous cross-linguistic transcription is apparently onomatopoetic.However, in humans, these qualities make unique use of thetongue; in comparison, most nonhuman mammals do not ap-pear to employ their tongues wh
We investigate the use of atmospheric oxygen (O2) and carbon dioxide (CO2) measurements for the estimation of the fossil fuel component of atmospheric CO2 in the UK. Atmospheric potential oxygen (APO) - a tracer that combines O2 and CO2, minimizing the influence of terrestrial biosphere fluxes - is simulated at three sites in the UK, two of which make APO measurements. We present a set of model ex
We developed an analytical method and constrained procedural boundary conditions that enable accurate and precise Zn isotope ratio measurements in urban aerosols. We also demonstrate the potential of this new isotope system for air pollutant source tracing. The procedural blank is around 5 ng and significantly lower than published methods due to a tailored ion chromatographic separation. Accurate
Aims: The study aims were to determine autoantibodies associated with type 1 diabetes (T1D), celiac disease (CD) and autoimmune thyroid disease (AITD) in individuals living with type 2 diabetes (T2D) compared to T1D and matched controls. Methods: Individuals with T1D and T2D were randomly identified in health-care registers. Blood was collected through home-capillary sampling and autoantibodies as
The currently most promising approach for reducing CO2 emissions of the global steel production is reducing iron ore in shaft furnaces with (green) hydrogen instead of blast furnaces. Unlike to the liquid iron produced in blast furnaces, the direct reduced iron produced in this route (green iron) exists in a solid state and can be transported at reasonable costs over long distances. This allows fo
Background: Mechanical ventilation (MV), compared to spontaneous breathing (SB), has been found to increase abdominal edema and inflammation in experimental sepsis. Our hypothesis was that in primary acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) MV would enhance inflammation and edema in the abdomen.Methods: Thirteen piglets were randomized into two groups (SB and MV) after the induction of ARDS by l
This study explored serious mental illness (SMI) in young adult offenders imprisoned for violent or sexual crimes, estimating the effects of neurodevelopmental disorders and early-life risk factors on the development of SMI, and its prospective long-term adverse outcomes. An all-male cohort of 266 violent offenders, assessed during imprisonment when aged 18–25 years (M = 21.8, SD = 1.9), was follo
Objectives: The only treatment with curative potential for distal cholangiocarcinoma (dCCA) is radical surgery which can be complemented with adjuvant chemotherapy. The aim of the present study was to perform an independent external validation of a prognostic model for 3-year overall survival based on routine clinicopathological variables for patients treated with pancreatoduodenectomy for dCCA.

Denna artikel undersöker hur innebörden av ekonomisk ersättning kan omdefinieras över tid i svenska familjehemsföräldrars liv. Med utgångspunkt i fyrtio kvalitativa intervjuer visar jag att familjehemsföräldrar initialt kan tona ned eller bortse från de ekonomiska aspekterna av uppdraget, men senare komma att vara beroende av denna inkomst – inte nödvändigtvis av egenintresse, utan som ett sätt atThis article examines how the meaning of financial compensation may be redefined over time in the lives of Swedish foster parents. Drawing on forty qualitative interviews, I demonstrate that while foster parents may initially downplay or disregard the monetary aspects of fostering, they can later come to depend on this income, not necessarily out of self-interest, but as a means of deepening their
New high spin states in Mg25 (up to 13.3 MeV in excitation) have been located using the N12,p)25Mg reaction at a laboratory beam energy of 23.5 MeV. Gamma decay from 28 neutron unbound levels has been observed (24 of which are reported here for the first time) up to 7 MeV above the neutron drip line. Tentative identification of the yrast line up to (17/2+ has been made, along with an extension of
To analyse longitudinal changes in passive range of motion (ROM) in the upper limb in adults with cerebral palsy (CP). Method: Passive ROM for shoulder abduction and flexion, supination, and elbow and wrist extension was analysed in a longitudinal cohort of adults aged 16 to 76 years from the Swedish CP registry. Individual ROM trajectories and mean ROM curves were calculated using the Manual Abil
The timing of the spring season in the boreal region is shifting under global warming, with profound impacts on ecosystems and hydrological processes. However, the mechanisms driving this transition and its considerable interannual variability are not well described, especially regarding the influence of large-scale atmospheric teleconnection patterns. This study examines the temporal variability
α-Synuclein (αSyn) is a neuronal protein predominantly found at the synapse, involved in vesicle trafficking. αSynaggregates are also the main component of Lewy bodies, the hallmarks of Parkinson’s disease. Interactions between the N- and Cterminiof αSyn play crucial roles in its behavior in solution, membrane binding, and aggregation. Studying these interactionsprovides valuable insights into theα-Synuclein (αSyn) is a neuronal protein predominantly found at the synapse, involved in vesicle trafficking. αSyn aggregates are also the main component of Lewy bodies, the hallmarks of Parkinson’s disease.

Smart grids are widely promoted as efficient, low-carbon solutions for energy transitions, yet their governance often treats digital infrastructure as immaterial and uniformly beneficial. This obscures the material, temporal, and justice dimensions that shape real-world outcomes. We introduce Circular Grid Governance (CGG), a framework that integrates circular-economy principles, lifecycle thinkin
In spite of the similar structural and genomic organization of human immunodeficiency viruses type 1 and 2 (HIV-1 and HIV-2), striking differences exist between them in terms of replication dynamics and clinical manifestation of infection. Although the pathomechanism of HIV-1 infection is well characterized, relatively few data are available regarding HIV-2 viral replication and its interaction wi
Purpose: Forehead flaps are commonly used in oculoplastic surgery to cover defects after tumor excision. Blood perfusion is vital for flap survival. The aim of this study was to monitor the perfusion in forehead flaps and investigate the impact of flap length and thickness. Methods: Nineteen forehead flaps in patients undergoing direct brow lift were studied. Perfusion was monitored using laser sp
Background: Congestion is associated with poor prognosis in cardiac amyloidosis (CA). The cardio-hepatic interaction and the prognostic impact of secondary liver affection by cardiac congestion in CA are poorly understood and require further characterisation. Methods: Participants of the amyloidosis cohort study AmyKoS at the Interdisciplinary Amyloidosis Centre of Northern Bavaria with proven tra
