Mononuclear iron(iv)-oxo, iron(iv)-imido and iron(iv)-nitrido complexes are common catalytic cycle intermediates in enzymes, where the metal is typically linked to the protein through cysteinate or histidine sidechains. Enzymatic high-valent iron(iv)-imido and -nitrido intermediates have never been trapped and characterized; hence, there is uncertainty regarding their structure and function. Using
Recent research in motion event typology has moved beyond the binary Talmian division of "verb-framed" and "satellite-framed" languages and has established the existence of at least four distinct typological clusters, instantiated by, for example, Swedish (Germanic), French (Romance), Thai (Tai-Kadai) and Telugu (Dravidian). In this paper, we focus on characteristic features of Telugu, as a repres
The brick kiln at Saltsjö Boo is one of very few such structures known from medieval Sweden. Approx ¾ of the kiln has been excavated in successive short excavations from 2006 to 2011. Carbon 14 and TL (Thermoluminiscence) analyses indicate that the kiln has been in operation from c. 1250 to c.1450. This paper presents the results of the excavations and discusses the production of bricks and indust
Abstract in UndeterminedWe develop a discretization and computational procedures for approximation of the action of Fourier integral operators the canonical relations of which are graphs. Such operators appear, for instance, in the formulation of imaging and inverse scattering of seismic reflection data. Our discretization and algorithms are based on a multiscale low-rank expansion of the action o
Fungus gardens of the basidiomycete Leucocoprinus gongylophorus sustain large colonies of leaf-cutting ants by degrading the plant material collected by the ants. Recent studies have shown that enzyme activity in these gardens is primarily targeted toward starch, proteins and the pectin matrix associated with cell walls, rather than toward structural cell wall components such as cellulose and hemi
Over the past few decades, significant social and economic transformations had a relevant correspondence in processes of territorial complexification, urban fragmentation and spatial injustice. Literature and research shows that these processes have also a very important temporal dimension, associated to a transition from an industrial society of synchronized rhythms to more heterogeneous everyday
Popular Abstract in Swedish Under de senaste årtiondena har både kraftsensorer och digitala kameror kommit att bli vanliga som sensorer i olika robotiktillämpningar. Denna avhandling behandlar olika problem inom visuell rörelseskattning och återkoppling, samt integrationen av dessa tekniker med reglering av kontaktkrafter för en industrirobot. Olika ämnen tas upp, från grundläggande teori till praOver the last decades, both force sensors and cameras have emerged as useful sensors for different applications in robotics. This thesis considers a number of dynamic visual tracking and control problems, as well as the integration of these techniques with contact force control. Different topics ranging from basic theory to system implementation and applications are treated. A new interface develo
The performance of poly(1-trimethylsilyl-1-propyne) (PTMSP)/silica nanocomposites was studied for membranes with a filler content between 0 and 50 wt%. An increase in permeability and a decrease in vapor selectivity was measured with increasing filler content. The free volume sizes and interstitial mesopore sizes of the composites were determined by use of positron annihilation lifetime spectrosco
With the publication of the IPCC Special Report on Carbon dioxide Capture and Storage (CCS), CCS has emerged as a focal issue in international climate diplomacy and energy collaboration. This paper has two goals. The first goal is to map CCS activities in and among various types of intergovernmental organisations; the second goal is to apply International Relations (IR) theories to explain the gro
The oxidation of Pd(111) leads to an incommensurate surface oxide, which was studied by the use of scanning tunneling microscopy, surface x-ray diffraction, high resolution core level spectroscopy, and density functional calculations. A combination of these methods reveals a two-dimensional structure having no resemblance to bulk oxides of Pd. Our study also demonstrates how the atomic arrangement
The Southern Ocean is split into several biogeographical provinces between convergence zones that separate watermasses of different temperatures. Recent molecular phylogenies have uncovered a strong phylogeographic structure among rockhopper penguin populations, Eudyptes chrysocome sensu lato, from different biogeographical provinces. These studies suggested a reclassification as three species in
Electron-ion-ion coincidence measurements of sulfur dioxide at discrete resonances near the O 1s ionization edge are reported. The spectra are analyzed using a model based upon molecular symmetry and on the geometry of the molecule. We find clear evidence for molecular alignment that can be ascribed to symmetry properties of the ground and core-excited states. Configuration interaction (CI) calcul
This review summarizes the knowledge on striated domains, which are ordered assemblies of transmembrane peptides and lipids under gel-state conditions. The structure, mechanism of function and utility of this system as a model for domain formation is described, resulting in a molecular description of the domains and a discussion on the relevance of these insights for the function/formation and str
Popular Abstract in Swedish I många företag och organisationer är planering av inköp, produktion, lagerhållning och transporter av stor betydelse för lönsamheten. Inom tillverkningsindustrin är det till exempel vanligt att värdet på lager, förråd och produkter i arbete överstiger värdet av hela produktionssystemet inklusive maskiner och byggnader. Effektiv styrning av produktion och lagerhållning In many companies and organisations the planning and control of purchasing, production, inventory and transportation is of great importance. In a manufacturing industry it is not unusual that the value of the total stock of end products and parts in production is larger than the value of the production system itself with its machines and factory buildings. Efficient control of inventory and produc

The thesis investigates how the problem of Critical Raw Material supply chains is represented within the European Critical Raw Materials Act of 2023. Bacchi’s ‘What's Problem Represented To Be’ approach has been adapted and utilised to explore what aspects of these supply chains are problematised. By highlighting how the problem of supply chains is represented, this research aims to uncover wh
