- Over the past 10 years, Oosterhof and Todorov's valence-dominance model has emerged as the most prominent account of how people evaluate faces on social dimensions. In this model, two dimensions (valence and dominance) underpin social judgements of faces. Because this model has primarily been developed and tested in Western regions, it is unclear whether these findings apply to other regions. We addressed this question by replicating Oosterhof and Todorov's methodology across 11 world regions, 41 countries and 11,570 participants. When we used Oosterhof and Todorov's original analysis strategy, the valence-dominance model generalized across regions. When we used an alternative methodology to allow for correlated dimensions, we observed much less generalization. Collectively, these results suggest that, while the valence-dominance model generalizes very well across regions when dimensions are forced to be orthogonal, regional differences are revealed when we use different extraction methods and correlate and rotate the dimension reduction solution.

Superconducting gap and critical behavior in the Iron-Pnictides

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- In the phase diagram of iron pnictides, superconductivity arises at the border of antiferromagnetism, which raises the question of the role of symmetry of the gap and quantum criticality. Although more than 15-years of extensive research, the microscopic origin of the pairing symmetry inside the superconducting (SC) dome and its link to quantum criticality still remains elusive. Here, we report two new findings on BaFe2_xNixAs2: (1) A sharp peak in the x-dependence of the lower and upper critical fields, the SC critical current density Jc, the size of the jump in the specific heat Delta Cel/T and the Sommerfeld coefficient (gamma) at the optimum composition x = 0.10, where the SC transition temperature Tc reaches a maximum. Our obtained reliable values as a function of doping of the normal-state Sommerfeld coefficient increase with doping, illustrating the strong competition between magnetism and superconductivity and attributed to closing of spin density wave gap with Ni doping. (2) We show that doping induced a sudden change of the gap structure from nodeless to nodal. Our results imply that the superconductivity in BaFe2_xNixAs2 is closely linked to the quantum criticality and is characterized by a complex order parameter.

Overdiagnosis of COPD in Subjects With Unobstructed Spirometry A BOLD Analysis
- 2019

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- BACKGROUND: There are several reports on underdiagnosis of COPD, while little is known about COPD overdiagnosis and overtreatment. We describe the overdiagnosis and the prevalence of spirometrically defined false positive COPD, as well as their relationship with overtreatment across 23 population samples in 20 countries participating in the BOLD Study between 2003 and 2012.METHODS: A false positive diagnosis of COPD was considered when participants reported a doctor's diagnosis of COPD, but postbronchodilator spirometry was unobstructed (FEV1/FVC > LLN). Additional analyses were performed using the fixed ratio criterion (FEV1/FVC < 0.7).RESULTS: Among 16,177 participants, 919 (5.7%) reported a previous medical diagnosis of COPD. Postbronchodilator spirometry was unobstructed in 569 subjects (61.9%): false positive COPD. A similar rate of overdiagnosis was seen when using the fixed ratio criterion (55.3%). In a subgroup analysis excluding participants who reported a diagnosis of "chronic bronchitis" or "emphysema" (n = 220), 37.7% had no airflow limitation. The site-specific prevalence of false positive COPD varied greatly, from 1.9% in low- to middle-income countries to 4.9% in high-income countries. In multivariate analysis, overdiagnosis was more common among women, and was associated with higher education; former and current smoking; the presence of wheeze, cough, and phlegm; and concomitant medical diagnosis of asthma or heart disease. Among the subjects with false positive COPD, 45.7% reported current use of respiratory medication. Excluding patients with reported asthma, 34.4% of those with normal spirometry still used a respiratory medication.CONCLUSIONS: False positive COPD is frequent. This might expose nonobstructed subjects to possible adverse effects of respiratory medication.

Economic assessment of the negative impacts of ozone on crop yields and forest production. A case study of the estate Ostads Sateri in southwestern Sweden

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Ground level ozone concentrations, in combination with the prevailing climate, at the estate Ostads Sateri in southwestern Sweden were estimated to reduce the yield of wheat and potato ranging between 5% and 10%. Occasionally, in years with the highest ozone concentrations and/or climatic conditions favoring high rates of ozone uptake to the leaves, yield loss levels above 10% may occur. Based on simple extrapolation, these ozone-induced reductions of crop yields at Ostads Sateri represent a potential total annual yield loss in Sweden in the range of 24.5 million Euro for wheat and 7.3 million Euro for potato, respectively. A simulation of forest growth at Ostad Sateri predicted that prevailing mean ozone exposure during 1993-2003 had the potential to reduce forest growth by 2.2% and the economic return of forest production by 2.6%. Using this value for extrapolation to the national level, the potential annual economic loss for Sweden due to negative impacts of ozone on forest production would be in the range of 56 million Euro (2004 prices).

- Multipactor breakdown is an important potential failure mechanism in many different microwave devices working under close to vacuum conditions. Applications range from space borne RF equipment to high-power microwave generators. The basic physics involved in the multipactor phenomenon is well known for the case of two infinite pallel plates made of metal. However, most realistic RF device geometries involve inhomogeneous RF electric fields and curved field lines and sometimes also dielectric material. The purpose of this paper is to set up methodologies to determine the Multipactor threshold in such situations.

- This paper deals with the analysis of the Multipactor effect in RF components with ferrites performed through the preliminary measurements of ferrites secondary emission coefficient and the simulations of the effect of a continuous magnetic field on the electron bunch spread. The impact of this effect on the Multipactor threshold was quantified. © 2013 IEEE.
