- A commercial CMOS image sensor was irradiated with heavy ion beams in the several MeV energy range. The image sensor is equipped with a standard video output. The data were collected on-line through frame grabbing and analysed off-line after digitisation. It was shown that the response of the image sensor to the heavy ion bombardment varied with the type and energy of the projectiles. The sensor will be used for the CMS Barrel Muon Alignment system.

- A new type of experimental technique to investigate the depth- of-interaction (DOI) dependence in small scintillator elements designed for high-resolution animal PET is tested. An Oxford-type nuclear microprobe was used to irradiate a lutetium oxyorthosilicate (LSO) crystal (2 x 2 x 10 mm) with a highly focused, (few micrometers diam.), 2 MeV He+ beam. Pulse height spectra from a PMT attached to one end of the LSO crystal were collected in list mode. By scanning the beam over the crystal high-resolution 2D-images are generated and thus the DOI effect in the scintillator could be investigated. The obtained results of the overall DOI dependence confirm previous findings using gamma-rays. Since the present experimental setup allows obtaining data with several orders of magnitude better spatial resolution than with collimated gamma-beam, the method can be applied for variety of problems where high spatial resolution is required.

- A commercially available off the shelf CMOS Image Sensor was irradiated with neutron and proton beams. The Image Sensor is equipped with standard video output. The data were collected on VHS videotapes and analyzed off-line after digitization. The camera chip with 110 000 pixels each having 12 x 12 mum(2) size, shows the nuclear reactions occurring in the sensitive layer as bright spots or tracks. Several applications are suggested based on the inexpensive CMOS Image Sensor.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- In this work the syntheses, structure, superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity and the catalytic use in the oxidative transformations of cyclohexene of covalently grafted Mn(II)-complexes formed with various C-protected amino acid (L-histidine, L-cysteine and L-cystine) ligands are presented. The structural features of the surface complexes were studied by EPR, X-ray absorption, and mid/far IR spectroscopies. The superoxide dismutase activities of the materials were determined in a biochemical test reaction. The obtained materials were used as catalysts for the oxidation of cyclohexene with peracetic acid in acetone. Covalent grafting and building the complex onto the surface of the chloropropylated silica gel were successful in all cases. It was found that in many instances the structures obtained and the coordinating groups substantially varied upon changing the conditions of the syntheses. All the covalently immobilised Mn(II)-complexes displayed superoxide dismutase activity and could catalyse the oxidation of cyclohexene. (C) 2014 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

Association between psychotic disorder and urban place of birth is not mediated by obstetric complications or childhood socio-economic position: a cohort study

- Background. Although urban place of birth has been identified as a risk factor for schizophrenia, the extent to which this association is mediated by socially patterned risk factors such as obstetric complications and childhood socio-economic position is unclear. The diagnostic specificity of the association within the clinical psychotic syndromes is also unclear.Method. A population cohort of 696025 males and females, born in Sweden between 1973 and 1980 and with linked birth and socio-economic data was followed up from age 16 for up to 9·8 years. Hospitalized cases of schizophrenia and other non-affective psychosis were identified from the Swedish Inpatient Discharge Register. We examined associations of these disorders with a three-level measure of urbanicity of birthplace before and after controlling for measures of foetal nutrition, obstetric complications and level of maternal education.Results. Urban compared to rural birthplace was associated both with increased risk of adult onset schizophrenia (hazard ratio 1·34, CI 0·91–1·96) and other non-affective psychoses (hazard ratio 1·63, CI 1·18–2·26). None of these associations was greatly affected by adjustment for obstetric complications or maternal educational level. In the group of other non-affective psychoses urban–rural differences in disease risk were strongest among those born in the winter months.Conclusion. Urbanization of birthplace is associated with increased risk of non-affective psychosis but this is not confined to narrowly defined cases. The magnitude of the association in Sweden is lower than that reported in other studies. Causal factors underlying this association appear to operate independently of risks associated with obstetric complications and parental educational status.

Coordination Environment-Controlled Photoinduced Electron Transfer Quenching in Luminescent Europium Complexes

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- The quenching of sensitized Eu(III) luminescence by photoinduced electron transfer from the excited light-harvesting antenna to Eu(III) was investigated. A series of complexes incorporating different metal binding sites and thus having varying Eu(III)/Eu(II) reduction potentials were prepared. The complexes were fully characterized using a combination of single-crystal X-ray crystallography and paramagnetic H-1 NMR spectroscopy, the results of which support the structural similarity of the complexes. The redox and photophysical behavior of the Eu(III) center and the light-harvesting antenna were studied using cyclic voltammetry and steady-state and time-resolved emission spectroscopy on the nanosecond and millisecond time scales. The contribution of photoinduced electron transfer to the overall reduction of the Eu(III) luminescence quantum yield was found to be comparable and, in many cases, larger than the quenching caused by well-established processes such as coupling to X-H oscillators. These results suggest that the elimination or mitigation of photoinduced electron transfer could substantially improve the emissive properties of the widely used Eu(III)-based emitters.

Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- The structural characteristics of Ba-Fe double hydroxides were studied by various methods, such as scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive X-ray (EDX) fluorescence and X-ray absorption spectroscopies (XAS). It was verified that under hyperalkaline conditions (using 10 M or 20 M NaOH solution for precipitating the substances) layered double hydroxides could be prepared and the structure collapsed on heat treatment at 523 K. Important structural parameters could also be obtained through the quantitative analysis of the XAS spectrum of Ba3Fe-LDH made using 20 M NaOH for precipitating the material. (C) 2010 Elsevier B.V.

- Various acrylates [E-phenylpropenoate, E-3(4'-nitrophenyl)propenoate, E-3(2',5'-difluorphenyl)propenoate, E-3(2'-thienyl)propenoate, E-3(4'-imidazolyl)propenoate or E-2,3-dimethylpropenoate] were successfully intercalated into Ca(II)Fe(III) layered double hydroxide (CaFe - LDH) verified by a range of instrumental methods. The possible arrangements for the organic anions were suggested on the basis of basal spacing data, layer thickness and the dimensions of the quantum chemically optimised structures of the acrylate ions. Using the acrylate CaFe LDHs as reactant-filled nanoreactors, photoinitiated topotactic [2 + 2] cyclisation reactions followed by IR spectroscopy could be performed with many representatives [E-phenylpropenoate-, E-3(4'-nitrophenyl)propenoate-, E-3(2',5'-difluorphenyl)propenoate- or E-3(2'-thienyl)propenoate-CaFe-LDHs] resulting in cyclobutane derivatives within the layers of the host material indicating that there were domains where the intercalated anions were in close proximity to each other and in proper arrangement for the reaction to occur.

Bokkapitel (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- The PET technique is widely used in human clinical studies and recent developments of image resolution has made it suitable for small animal research. The second generation of our PET scanner consists of 12 detector modules and has a field of view large enough to image mice and rats. Parameters of the incoming data are extracted by Digital Signal Processing in the detector modules and a System-on-Module is used to transmit the data through an Ethernet network for storage and reconstruction. The experimental scanner setup described in this paper was constructed in order to investigate the applicability of the developed detector modules in a full ring small animal PET camera. The preliminary results of the system are also presented.
