What accounts for the survival and long-term participation of activists in contentious movements under repression? I argue role an important yet oft-neglected factor: protective support by civilian bystanders. propose that, mainly motivated victim-oriented sympathy, bystanders engage high-risk protection that helps to escape crackdowns bolsters their dedication movement. To test my theoretical ...

Missing-trace interpolation aims to reconstruct regularly sampled wavefields from periodically sampled data with gaps caused by physical constraints. While transformdomain sparsity promotion has proven to be an effective tool to solve this recovery problem, recent developments in randomized acquisition in marine, via randomized coil sampling or randomized streamers with deliberate feathering, a...

In this report we present the multi-disciplinary work performed in the rst phase of the COHSY project concerning generation of models and analysis of hybrid systems { mathematical models including both continuous and discrete elements. The participants of the project were SAAB Military aircraft, Volvo aerospace, and VOAC hydraulics, as well as three departments from Link oping University: Comp...

The Military Health System (MHS) finds itself operating in a competitive market. TRICARE, the military managed care system, allows family members to seek care outside the uniformed network. In this competitive environment, it is necessary to deliver healthcare in such a way that meets or exceeds patients’ expectations and perceptions. Doing so not only ensures the existence of a robust MHS, but...

Extracellular vesicles (EVs) can modulate microenvironments by transferring biomolecules including RNAs and proteins derived from releasing cells to target cells. To understand the molecular mechanisms maintaining the neural stem cell (NSC) niche through EVs, a new transgenic (Tg) rat strain that can release human CD63-GFP expressed EVs from the NSCs was established. Human CD63-GFP expression w...

Notwithstanding the emphasis placed on the need for concerted international action to confront the problem of terrorism, positive international law is far from treating the issue of defi ning the criminal notion of terrorism coherently; the discussion of such a notion is being made hostage [sic!] to the abuse of the term ‘ terrorism ’ in the course of the debate and to the confusion between an ...

Seven types of evidence are reviewed that indicate that high subjective well-being (such as life satisfaction, absence of negative emotions, optimism, and positive emotions) causes better health and longevity. For example, prospective longitudinal studies of normal populations provide evidence that various types of subjective well-being such as positive affect predict health and longevity, cont...
