We have studied the vicinal Rh(553) surface by the use of High Resolution Core Level Spectroscopy (HRCLS). We demonstrate that we are able to resolve the photo-emitted electrons from the Rh3d_5/2 level originating from the step atoms with respect to those emitted from the atoms in the (111) terrace. Our study therefore shows that it is possible to obtain a core level "fingerprint" from t

Vicinal Rh(111) surfaces are studied with high resolution core level photoemission. We demonstrate the possibility to distinguish between the different kinds of surface atoms on these surfaces by virtue of their 3d core level binding energies. In particular, the low coordinated step atoms are found to exhibit a clear fingerprint in Rh 3d spectra. We demonstrate how this may be used to show that in

Lightweight floors are often troubled by poor impact-sound insulation. In order to develop and explain structures with acceptable insulation, a deterministic prediction model was developed. The paper considers transmission through the system and the response of the model. Excitation (as caused by the ISO-tapping machine) is considered in a separate paper [1]. The system description employs a spati

The surface of a Ga0.95Mn0.05As layer subjected to low temperature annealing under As capping has been studied by core level photoemission with focus on As3d spectrum. By detailed comparison with the surface of pure GaAs subjected to the same surface treatment, the As spectral component of the reacted surface layer has been identified. The relative intensity of this component is consistent with th

We describe a general computational method for designing proteins that self-assemble to a desired symmetric architecture. Protein building blocks are docked together symmetrically to identify complementary packing arrangements, and low-energy protein-protein interfaces are then designed between the building blocks in order to drive self-assembly. We used trimeric protein building blocks to design

This paper investigates the dynamics of poverty in rural Ethiopia during the period from 1994 to 2009. In order to explore factors that decisively affect the possibility of falling into and exiting out of poverty, the paper uses six rounds of data and employs alternative dynamic probit model which handles the problem of serial correlation, unobserved individual heterogeneity, state dependence and

Employing fault tolerance often introduces a time overhead, which may cause a deadline violation in real-time systems (RTS). Therefore, for RTS it is important to optimize the fault tolerance techniques such that the probability to meet the deadlines, i.e. the Level of Confidence (LoC), is maximized. Previous studies have focused on evaluating the LoC for equidistant checkpointing. However, no stu

In the pulp and paper industry, about 5 Mt/y chemithermomechanical pulp (CTMP) are produced globally from softwood chips for production of carton board grades. For tailor making CTMP for this purpose, wood chips are impregnated with aqueous sodium sulphite for sulphonation of the wood lignin. When lignin is sulphonated, the defibration of wood into pulp becomes more selective, resulting in enhance

The purpose of this thesis is to investigate the potential of transmitting data symbols alongside permuted copies in a repetition coding-like scheme, called the permutation scheme. First exhaustive search is conducted for small constellation sizes to identify possible patterns. The next step was identifying local search methods for permutations, and other methods for longer chains of permutations

A model was developed to calculate shoreline retreat due to sea level rise applicable for coastal areas with complex topography, varying wave and sediment conditions, and limited material supply. As a test case, the model was employed to the south Swedish coast to demonstrate the possibility to investigate large geographical areas using readily available input data. Equilibrium profiles of differe

Chickenpox is a highly contagious viral infection caused by varicella-zoster virus (VZV) whose clinical manifestations mimic mpox posing challenges for diagnosis without laboratory confirmation. Here, we investigated VZV among the mpox-suspected cases, May to October 2022, in Ethiopia. Samples were collected from 202 mpox-suspected cases in 11 of Ethiopia’s 14 regions and screened for mpox virus b
