Quantifying the hydroxyapatite orientation near the ossification front in a piglet femoral condyle using X-ray diffraction tensor tomography
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)While a detailed knowledge of the hierarchical structure and morphology of the extracellular matrix is considered crucial for understanding the physiological and mechanical properties of bone and cartilage, the orientation ... -
Quantitative genetics state-space modeling of phenotypic plasticity and evolution
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)Living organisms adapt to changes in environment by phenotypic plasticity and evolution by natural selection (or they migrate). At detailed genetic levels these phenomena are complicated, and quantitative genetics attempts ... -
Quantization Analysis and Robust Design for Distributed Graph Filters
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Distributed graph filters have recently found appli- cations in wireless sensor networks (WSNs) to solve distributed tasks such as reaching consensus, signal denoising, and recon- struction. However, when implemented over ... -
Quantum perturbative solutions of extended Snyder and Yang models with spontaneous symmetry breaking
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)We propose ħ-expansions as perturbative solutions of quantum extended Snyder and Yang models, with ħ-independent classical zero-th order terms responsible for the spontaneous breaking D = 4 and D = 5 de Sitter symmetries. ... -
A quantum reference frame size-accuracy trade-off for quantum channels
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)The imposition of symmetry upon the nature and structure of quantum observables has recently been extensively studied, with quantum reference frames playing a crucial role. In this paper, we extend this work to quantum ... -
Quarkonium measurements in nucleus–nucleus collisions with ALICE
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Quarkonia, i.e. bound states of and quarks, are powerful observables to study the properties of nuclear matter under extreme conditions. The formation of a Quark-Gluon Plasma (QGP), which is predicted by lattice QCD ... -
Quarkonium production in p-Pb collisions with ALICE
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)ALICE has measured quarkonium production in p-Pb collisions at backward (−4.46 < ycms < −2.96), mid (−1.37 < ycms < 0.43) and forward (2.03 < ycms < 3.53) rapidity (y) regions down to zero transverse momentum (pT). The ... -
Quasi-backsourcing in the Public Sector - The Challenge of Withdrawing from an Intertwined and Long-standing Relationship
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)The aim of this study is to map the process involved in terminating a long-standing business relationship in a public context. It employed an exploratory study to interview 35 politicians, senior- and middle managers, ... -
A Quest for Justice: Recognition and Migrant Interactions with Child Welfare Services in Norway
(Chapter, 2021)Norwegian Child Welfare Services (NCWS) has faced intense criticism regarding their interactions with migrant families, with international human rights monitoring mechanisms expressing concern regarding ethnic discrimination ... -
A "quota silo" or positive equality reach? The equality impact of gender quotas on corporate boards in Norway
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)10 years after its implementation, we explore the equality reach of the 40% Norwegian gender quota regulation for boards of public limited companies (PLCs) using a multistrategy approach (administrative data and interviews ... -
Race and 1918 influenza pandemic in the United States: A review of the literature
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)During epidemics, the poorest part of the population usually suffers the most. Alfred Crosby noted that the norm changed during the 1918 influenza pandemic in the US: The black population (which were expected to have higher ... -
“Racism is a perfect crime”: favela residents’ everyday experiences of police pacification, urban militarization, and prejudice in Rio de Janeiro
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)This article examines residents’ everyday experiences and perceptions of changing urban politics and racism in a “pacified” favela, or poor informal neighbourhood, in Rio de Janeiro, drawing on longitudinal ethnographic ... -
Radiografers beskrivelse av god kommunikasjon i møte med hjemmeboende eldre pasienter En deduktiv innholdsanalyse av intervjudata
(Master thesis, 2017)Innledning: Radiografrollen innbefatter både kunnskap om medisinsk diagnostisk utredning og kunnskap om omsorg. Computertomografi er et viktig ledd i utredningen av særlig eldre pasienter. Flere studier viser at eldre ... -
Radiografers oppfatninger av suboptimale henvisninger innen konvensjonell røntgen - en kvalitativ studie
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Innledning: Kvaliteten på henvisninger innen konvensjonell røntgen er avgjørende for å kunne gjennomføre og rapportere resultater av undersøkelsen. Likevel tyder mye på at suboptimale henvisninger er et problem som ... -
Radiographers' assessment of referrals for CT and MR imaging using a web-based data collection tool
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Introduction: There is limited research related to the radiographers' role in assessing of radiology referrals to justify imaging. This study investigated radiographers' compliance with guidelines in the assessment of CT ... -
Raman Spectroscopy as an Online Monitoring Tool for CO2 Capture Process: Demonstration Using a Laboratory Rig
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)A laboratory CO2 capture rig at USN was used as a demonstration plant to show the feasibility of Raman spectroscopy for online monitoring of speciation in CO2 capture process. The spectroscopy was integrated to lean and ... -
