Introduction: Improvements in virtual reality (VR) have made it possible to create realistic, virtual settings for behavioral assessment and skills training that cannot otherwise be accessed in a safe way in forensic psychiatric settings. VR interventions are under development but little is known how forensic psychiatric patients with severe mental disorders experience VR-assisted assessments or t
The Varena Iron Ore deposit in the SW East European Craton is a significant ore body that occurs within metamorphosed and hydrothermally reworked Paleoproterozoic dolostones. We have performed microstructural investigations supplemented with mineral chemistry and geochronological investigations (LA-ICP-MS) to obtain age constraints on the ore-forming event(s) and improve the understanding of the c
Aims. We aim to determine the influence of the Milky Way's warp on the kinematics of stars across the disc, and therefore measure its precession rate and line of nodes under different assumptions. Methods. We applied Jeans'first equation to a model of a rigidly precessing warp. The predictions of these models were fitted to the average vertical velocities of stars with measured line-of-sight veloc
OBJECTIVE: Twin studies have demonstrated that posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is moderately heritable, and the pattern of findings across studies suggests higher heritability in females compared with males. Formal testing of sex differences has yet to be done in twin studies of PTSD. The authors sought to estimate the genetic and environmental contributions to PTSD, and to formally test for
Context. The abundances of the α-elements are key for understanding the early chemical enrichment of the Galactic bulge. The elements of interest present lines in different wavelength regions, and some of them show lines only in part of the spectra. In the present work, the CNO trio, the a-elements Mg, Si, Ca, and Ti, and odd-Z Na and Al are examined as measured from optical and H-band lines. Aims
The diagnosis of lymphoma relies mainly on clinical examination and laboratory explorations. Among the latter, morphological and immunohistochemical analysis of a tissue biopsy are the cornerstones for proper identification and classification of the disease. In lymphoma with blood and/or bone marrow involvement, multiparameter flow cytometry is useful. This technique can also be applied to fresh c
African economic history has undergone impressive revitalization in the past decade. Much of the recent work is, quite naturally, inspired by developments in economic history at large, and increasingly – indirectly or directly – using markets as the organizing principle in understanding how economies evolve over time. More specifically, recent work assumes that markets create the possibility to us
Iridium dioxide (IrO2), ruthenium dioxide (RuO2), and their solid solutions (Ir1-xRuxO2) are very active electrocatalysts for the oxygen evolution reaction (OER). Efficient and facile synthesis of nanosized crystallites of these materials is of high significance for electrocatalytic applications for converting green energy to fuels (power-to-X). Here, we use in situ X-ray scattering to examine rea
Artificial intelligence and Machine Learning (AI/ML) are steadily becoming widespread across all layers in the current mobile network generation. The next generation of networks, namely 6G, will consider AI/ML as a foundational block to deliver all expected results of such networks. Thus, the management of AI/ML applications across different layers of 6G is paramount for the success of the next ge
Dose conversion coefficients attempt to harmonize the material-, location-, and exposure-dependent results from retrospective dosemeters. The issues and uncertainties arising from dose conversion are explored within the framework of an interlaboratory comparison exercise in which mobile phones were positioned around anthropomorphic phantoms and exposed to non-uniform photon fields, with the glass
Introduction Anorectal malformations (ARMs) are complex congenital anomalies of the anorectal region, oftentimes also affecting the genitourinary system. Although successful surgical correction can often be achieved in the neonatal period, many children will experience functional problems in the long term. The European Reference Network for rare and complex urogenital conditions (eUROGEN) assemble
Nanowire (NW) optoelectronic and electrical devices offer unique advantages over bulk materials but are generally made by contacting entire NW arrays in parallel. In contrast, ultra-high-resolution displays and photodetectors require electrical connections to individual NWs inside an array. Here, we demonstrate a scheme for fabricating such single NW vertical devices by contacting individual NWs w
Design problems in aerospace engineering often require numerous evaluations of expensive-to-evaluate high-fidelity models, resulting in prohibitive computational costs. One way to address the computational cost is through building surrogates, such as deep neural networks (DNNs). However, DNNs may only be an effective surrogate when sufficient evaluations of the high-fidelity model are required suc
Currently facing the problems of security of supply and higher electricity prices in southern Sweden, a medium-large power plant is considered to be built. To prepare for the possible outcome, a study of different cycle configurations was conducted. The study analyzed a 500 MWeldistrict heating mode power plant based on the Avedare power plant in Denmark, a single reheat Rankine cycle with a heat
A growing body of observations has revealed rapid changes in both the total inventory and the distribution of marine oxygen over the latter half of the 20th century, leading to increased interest in extending oxygenation records into the past. The use of paleo-oxygen proxies has the potential to extend the spatial and temporal range of current records, constrain pre-anthropogenic baselines, provid
We present novel approaches involving generative adversarial networks and diffusion models in order to synthesize high-quality, live, and spoof fingerprint images while preserving features such as uniqueness and diversity. We generate live fingerprints from noise with a variety of methods, and we use image translation techniques to translate live fingerprint images to spoof. To generate different
Swedish art and music schools (SAMS), established in the 1940s, aim to provide affordable extra-curricular instrumental and singing education for all children, regardless of their parents’ economic situation. The tuition is highly subsidized, with families contributing only about 7% of the tuition costs. While traditionally focusing on one-to-one instruction, a recent governmental report (2016) ha
