A new ATLAS muon CSC readout system with system on chip technology on ATCA platform
2015
The ATLAS muon Cathode Strip Chamber (CSC) backend readout system has been upgraded during the LHC 2013-2015 shutdown to be able to handle the higher Level-1 trigger rate of 100 kHz and the higher occupancy at Run 2 luminosity. The readout design is based on the Reconfigurable Cluster Element (RCE) concept for high bandwidth generic DAQ implemented on the Advanced Telecommunication Computing Architecture (ATCA) platform. The RCE design is based on the new System on Chip XILINX ZYNQ series with a processor-centric architecture with ARM processor embedded in FPGA fabric and high speed I/O resources together with auxiliary memories to form a versatile DAQ building block that can host applicati…

Spatial Memory Drives Foraging Strategies of Wolves, but in Highly Individual Ways
2022
The ability of wild animals to navigate and survive in complex and dynamic environments depends on their ability to store relevant information and place it in a spatial context. Despite the centrality of spatial memory, and given our increasing ability to observe animal movements in the wild, it is perhaps surprising how difficult it is to demonstrate spatial memory empirically. We present a cognitive analysis of movements of several wolves (Canis lupus) in Finland during a summer period of intensive hunting and den-centered pup-rearing. We tracked several wolves in the field by visiting nearly all GPS locations outside the den, allowing us to identify the species, location and timing of ne…
Electrochemically triggered iodide-vacancy BiOI film for selective extraction of iodide ion from aqueous solutions
2021
Abstract The effective extraction and regeneration of radioactive iodide remains an urgent concern for safe nuclear energy utilization. Herein, we developed a novel electrochemically triggered iodide-vacancy BiOI film, which exhibited excellent I− ion extraction capacity of 328.3 mg·g−1. Especially, due to the ion vacancy trap effect, the film showed high selectivity towards I− ions in the existence of a large number of competitive anions. Additionally, the electrochemically switched ion extraction (ESIE) process with this iodide-vacancy BiOI film possessed fast extraction kinetics and high stability. More importantly, the trapped I− ions were easily desorbed from the film without the secon…
Chiroptical inversion of a planar chiral redox-switchable rotaxane.
2019
Reversible redox-switching of a planar chiral [2]rotaxane with a tetrathiafulvalene-bearing crown ether macrocycle generates a complete sign reversal of the main band in the ECD spectrum, as shown by experiment and rationalised by DFT calculations.
New Glass Capillary Gas-Chromatographic Methods for Metabolites in Urine and Serum
1981
The analytical system suggested in this paper is a further development of pre-chromatographic methods and of column switching techniques described in previous papers1,2,3.In order to use modern gas-chromatographic techniques for the determination of metabolites in urine and serum quick and reliable pre-chromatographic methods for extraction, concentration and derivatization must be developed which give final (dosage) volumes of 5 to 10 μl with starting sample volumes of 0.1 ml of urine or 5 ml of serum as described by Dunges4.
Bidirectional Chemo-Switching of Spin State in a Microporous Framework
2009
The ins and outs of spin: Using the microporous coordination polymer {Fe(pz)[Pt(CN)(4)]} (1, pz=pyrazine), incorporating spin-crossover subunits, two-directional magnetic chemo-switching is achieved at room temperature. In situ magnetic measurements following guest vapor injection show that most guest molecules transform 1 from the low-spin (LS) state to the high-spin (HS) state, whereas CS(2) uniquely causes the reverse HS-to-LS transition.

Climate variability, innovation and firm performance: evidence from the European agricultural sector
2021
Abstract It is generally accepted that adaptation to climate variability requires a technological advancement strategy. However, the innovation process has received little explicit consideration in this framework. We employ a panel endogenous switching regression model to explore whether and to what extent climate variability affects firm performance through the ability to induce the development of adaptation innovations in key resource-based sectors in Europe during the period 2007–2017. Our findings confirm that the knowledge generation process at the heart of climate change adaptation technologies enhances firm performance, especially for firms in the aquaculture and fishing sub-sectors …
Vendor lock-in problem in cloud storage
2015
Pilvitallennuspalvelut tuovat datan tallentamiseen ennennäkemättömiä etuja ja niiden hyödyntäminen on, sekä yksittäisillä kuluttajilla, että yrityksillä, yleistymässä. Teknologiassa on kuitenkin vielä ongelmia ilman ratkaisua. Turvallisuus-, sekä yksityisyysseikat ovat tunnetuimpia, ja niitä on tutkittu laajalti. Vähemmälle huomiolle on jäänyt, kuinka vaikeaa on palveluntarjoajan vaihtaminen. Palveluntarjoajan vaihtaminen aiheuttaa aina kustannuksia asiakkaalle. Tilannetta, jossa vaihtokustannukset ovat niin suuret, että ne estävät palveluntarjoajan vaihtamisen, kuvataan termillä "vendor lock-in" (toimittajaloukku). Tämän kandidaatintutkielman tavoitteena on kirjallisuuskatsauksen perusteel…
