Solution and solution-deposited thin films of the discotic liquid crystalline electron acceptor–donor–acceptor (A-D-A) p-type organic semiconductor FHBC(TDPP)2, synthesized by coupling thienyl substituted diketopyrrolopyrrole (TDPP) onto a fluorenyl substituted hexa-peri-hexabenzocoronene (FHBC) core, are examined by ultrafast and nanosecond transient absorption spectroscopy, and time-resolved pho
This paper presents assessment of natural and anthropogenic sources of blue energy within Swedish territory to identify suitable spots for implementing new projects. The natural energy potential of salinity gradients was found to be higher in southwest Sweden, and a national energy resource potential of 2610.6 MW from seawater/river water mixing will be reduced to a technical potential ranging fro
Global food supply chains are unprepared for the increasing number and severity of the expected environmental, social and economic shocks in the coming years. The price-setting process of commodities is directly impacted by such shocks, influencing consumer behavior regarding food choice and consumption. Both the market and advances in precision agriculture drive increased production and consumpti
This chapter aims to enhance our understanding of the implications international standardisation have for audit innovation at the national level. The study analyses the ways in which transnational regulation effectuates institutional constraints on audit innovation in Sweden as a setting to discuss the capacity for the audit profession to innovate and make audits more socially relevant. Based on d
Background. An increasing global population means resource utilisation and food security remain the critical global challenges. Robotics and autonomous systems (RAS) have been applied to improve productivity, and their role in enhancing supply chain operations is explored here. Scope and approach. Researchers have studied ways to adopt and integrate RAS into the food industry. However, most of the
A growing body of research suggests that the global conception of climate change is increasingly taking a justice-focus. However, the justice-framings of different actors in the UNFCCC process and their evolution have not yet been examined. We conduct a critical discourse analysis of climate justice claims of state and non-state actors in COP15, COP19, COP21 and COP24 which are key moments for cli
The COVID-19 pandemic has illuminated the lack of knowledge regarding the airborne transmission pathway of disease. The pathway consists of pathogens contained in small particles ejected when speaking and coughing. A crucial characteristic of these particles is their size that is connected to the their suspension longevity in the air as well as the location of generation and deposition within a su
Model tests have shown that by building a shallow dam at the outlet the discharge from the upper reservoir can be distributed over such a large width that the kinetic energy is dissipated before the flow reaches levels deeper than 10 m. Since the summer thermocline is situated at 15 m and the epilimnion is homothermal the discharge does not affect the thermal stratification of the lake during the
Some magnetic systems feature spin textures, real-space patterns in the orientation of spins that can topologically form non-trivial configurations. Among them, a vortex-like spin swirling texture known as a magnetic skyrmion has attracted particular attention. Lattices of skyrmions form in the helimagnet MnSi with a periodicity of 18 nm, which makes them amenable to investigation by Lorentz trans
Background: The COVID-19 pandemic substantially magnified the inequity gaps among vulnerable populations. Both public health (PH) and primary health care (PHC) have been crucial in addressing the challenges posed by the pandemic, especially in the area of vulnerable populations. However, little is known about the intersection between PH and PHC as a strategy to mitigate the inequity gap. This stud
