Forskningsöversikt (refereegranskat)abstract
- Environmental pollution is escalating due to rapid global development that often prioritizes human needs over planetary health. Despite global efforts to mitigate legacy pollutants, the continuous introduction of new substances remains a major threat to both people and the planet. In response, global initiatives are focusing on risk assessment and regulation of emerging contaminants, as demonstrated by the ongoing efforts to establish the UN's Intergovernmental Science-Policy Panel on Chemicals, Waste, and Pollution Prevention. This review identifies the sources and impacts of emerging contaminants on planetary health, emphasizing the importance of adopting a One Health approach. Strategies for monitoring and addressing these pollutants are discussed, underscoring the need for robust and socially equitable environmental policies at both regional and international levels. Urgent actions are needed to transition toward sustainable pollution management practices to safeguard our planet for future generations.

- Three dinuclear iron complexes containing pendant nitrogen bases in phosphine ligands with general formular ( l- pdt) [ Fe2( CO) 5L] ( where pdt is SCH2CH2CH2S, L = PPh2NH( CH2) 2N( CH3) 2 ( 5), PPh2NH( 2- NH2C6H4) ( 6), PPh2[ 2- N( CH3) 2CH2C6H4] ( 7)), were prepared as the models of the [ Fe - Fe] hydrogenase active site. The molecular structures of 5 - 7 were characterized by X- ray crystallography. The secondary amine in 6 has weak intramolecular hydrogen bonding with both the terminal nitrogen and sulfur atom, which may suggest a proton transfer pathway from amine in phosphine ligand to the sulfur atom of active site. Protonation of complexes 5 and 6 only occurred at the terminal nitrogen atom. Electrochemical properties of the complexes were studied in the presence of tri. ic acid by cyclic voltammetry.

- The ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider has collected several hundred million cosmic ray events during 2008 and 2009. These data were used to commission the Muon Spectrometer and to study the performance of the trigger and tracking chambers, their alignment, the detector control system, the data acquisition and the analysis programs. We present the performance in the relevant parameters that determine the quality of the muon measurement. We discuss the single element efficiency, resolution and noise rates, the calibration method of the detector response and of the alignment system, the track reconstruction efficiency and the momentum measurement. The results show that the detector is close to the design performance and that the Muon Spectrometer is ready to detect muons produced in high energy proton-proton collisions.

- The ATLAS Inner Detector is a composite tracking system consisting of silicon pixels, silicon strips and straw tubes in a 2 T magnetic field. Its installation was completed in August 2008 and the detector took part in data-taking with single LHC beams and cosmic rays. The initial detector operation, hardware commissioning and in-situ calibrations are described. Tracking performance has been measured with 7.6 million cosmic-ray events, collected using a tracking trigger and reconstructed with modular pattern-recognition and fitting software. The intrinsic hit efficiency and tracking trigger efficiencies are close to 100%. Lorentz angle measurements for both electrons and holes, specific energy-loss calibration and transition radiation turn-on measurements have been performed. Different alignment techniques have been used to reconstruct the detector geometry. After the initial alignment, a transverse impact parameter resolution of 22.1 +/- 0.9 mu m and a relative momentum resolution sigma (p) /p=(4.83 +/- 0.16)x10(-4) GeV(-1)xp (T) have been measured for high momentum tracks.

- The simulation software for the ATLAS Experiment at the Large Hadron Collider is being used for large-scale production of events on the LHC Computing Grid. This simulation requires many components, from the generators that simulate particle collisions, through packages simulating the response of the various detectors and triggers. All of these components come together under the ATLAS simulation infrastructure. In this paper, that infrastructure is discussed, including that supporting the detector description, interfacing the event generation, and combining the GEANT4 simulation of the response of the individual detectors. Also described are the tools allowing the software validation, performance testing, and the validation of the simulated output against known physics processes.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- In order to create photoactive catalysts for hydrogen production, a novel trimetallic Re-Fe2S2 complex 4 was synthesized by the coordination of the free -PPh2 group of the ligand of the rhenium photosensitizer 6 to an azadithiolate (ADT)-bridged diiron complex 8 with the assistance of the decarbonylation reagent Me3NO. Complex 4 was characterized by H-1, C-13, P-31 NMR and HRMS spectra. The IR, UV-vis and electrochemical data indicate some interactions between Re and Fe2S2 moieties, and the photo-induced electron transfer from the excited state of the Re moiety to the Fe2S2 catalyst is thermodynamically feasible.
