Interplay of strain, polarization and magnetic ordering in complex oxides from first principles
No full textWe study mechanisms of structural and magnetic phase transitions in crystalline oxides from first principles. The focus is on epitaxial stabilization in perovskites and on magnetoelastic coupling and frustration in spinels. These materials and phenomena are of great interest for basic science and have important roles to play in the design and discovery of new functional materials. The effects of epitaxial strain on the structure of the perovskite oxide CaTiO3 are investigated. Particular attention is paid to the stabilization of a ferroelectric phase related to the polar instability found in previous first-principles studies of calcium titanate in the ideal cubic perovskite structure. At 1.5% strain, we find an epitaxial orientation transition between the ab-ePbnm phase, favoured for compressive strains, and the c-ePbnm phase. For larger tensile strains, a polar instability, which was hidden in the equilibrium bulk structure, develops in the c-ePbnm phase and an epitaxial-strain-induced ferroelectric phase is obtained with polarization along a [110] direction with respect to the primitive perovskite lattice vectors of the square substrate. A ferroelectric rhombohedral R3c phase, with a different combination of octahedral rotations, is also found to be competitive in energy for large tensile strains, and might be observable under the application of additional perturbations, such as a small degree of cation substitution. We present an ongoing project to construct a first-principles effective Hamiltonian to investigate the transition from the high-temperature cubic phase to a low-temperature low-symmetry phase observed in the spinel structure oxides CdCr2O4 and ZnCr2O4. The local modes included in the expansion are the chromium displacements, distortions of the cadmium- or zinc-centred tetrahedra, and the homogeneous strain. The magnetostructural coupling of these degrees of freedom to the spins of the chromium ions is included in the effective Hamiltonian parametrization and first-principles determination using a symmetry analysis. The role of the magnetostructural coupling in the phase transition is analysed and discussed.Ph.D.Includes abstractVitaIncludes bibliographical referencesby Carl-Johan Eklun
Origen’s References to Heracleon : A Quotation-Analytical Study of the Earliest Known Commentary on the Gospel of John
No full textIn this monograph, Carl Johan Berglund reassesses Origen's references to the second-century philologist Heracleon, without presuming that Heracleon's exegesis is determined by views described in heresiological sources or that every reference is equivalent to a verbatim quotation. The author uses variations in Origen's attribution formulas to categorize almost two hundred references as either verbatim quotations, summaries, explanatory paraphrases, or mere assertions. Heracleon's views are assessed by considering the over fifty quotations and seventy summaries so identified in a context of literature to which Heracleon refers – John, a gospel similar to Matthew's, a collection of Pauline epistles, and the Preaching of Peter. The author concludes that Origen is likely to have inferred views he knew from his exegetical opponents (the heterodox and "those who bring in the natures") that were never expressed by Heracleon.Die Ursprünge der frühchristlichen Exegese werden durch die mangelnde Unterscheidung antiker Autoren zwischen wörtlichen Zitaten, Zusammenfassungen, erklärenden Paraphrasen und bloßen Behauptungen verdeckt. Carl Johan Berglund ermittelt, was wir aus Origenes' Annahmen über gnostische Häresien über Herakleons literarkritischen Evangelienkommentar wissen können.</p
Report of Governor Johan Rising, 1655, on New Sweden
No full textGovernor Johan Rising reports to the Swedish government and royalty on the status of New Sweden (present-day New Jersey). He also reports on other Swedish colonies in the area. He asks that single women and skilled tradesmen be sent to the colonies. Rising also reports that attacks from neighboring Indian tribes are increasing. He has found some protection by forming an alliance with English settlers, but the cost is high, and his colony owes the English money and supplies. Rising asks that Sweden send them money so that they can pay off their debts, build ships that would establish a trading dominance with the West Indies, and cultivate land and crops to gain more profit. Reports from New World governors were sent back to their native countries via ships. Rising sent this report in June of 1655, but Sweden did not recieve the report until November of 1655.

Report of Governor Johan Printz, 1647, on New Sweden
No full textGovern Johan Printz, the governor of New Sweden (later to become New Jersey), reports on the status of the colony and the settlers. Many freemen have arrived to settle in New Sweden, but the criminals and military men who were conscripted to the colony want to return to Sweden. Of the freemen, very few are skilled, so Governor Printz asks that blacksmiths, tanners, tailors, carpenters, and butchers be sent to the colony. Additionally, he asks for single women. Printz also reports on two new Swedish colonies that have been established along the Delaware River. However, Dutch settlers have become very aggressive by re-purchasing land from the Indians that the Swedish had already bought. They are also interrupting trade between the Swedes and the Indians, as well as instigating the Indians to attack the Swedes. Printz directed the construction of some storage houses along common trade routes to win back trade from the Indians. However, fighting has erupted between different Native tribes as each tries to establish dominance in trading with the colonies.

Relation of the surrender of New Sweden, by Governor Johan Clason Rising, 1655
No full textGovernor Johan Rising of New Sweden reports to Sweden on the August 1655 Dutch attack on New Sweden's Fort Christina. The Dutch traveled from New Amsterdam (present-day New York) and easily captured a New Sweden outpost. Rising sent men to the outpost to fend of the Dutch, but the Dutch defeated them and took them as prisoners, leaving Fort Christina without fighting men and supplies. The Dutch then put the Fort under seige. A few days later, Rising surrendered the Fort. He and the Swedish colonists were ordered to either return to Sweden, or to remain in the New World in service to the Dutch.

Genesis Breyer P-Orridge : Sacred Intent : Conversations with Carl Abrahamsson 1986–2019
No full text"Three decades of conversations with Genesis Breyer P-Orridge, provocateur, artist, gender revolutionary and leader of the bands Throbbing Gristle, Psychic TV and more
Published for legendary artist and musician Genesis Breyer P-Orridge’s 70th birthday in 2020, Sacred Intent gathers conversations between Breyer P-Orridge and his friend and collaborator, the Swedish author Carl Abrahamsson. From the first 1986 fanzine-based interview about current projects, philosophical insights, magical workings, international travels, art theory and gender revolutions, to 2019’s thoughts on life and death in the the shadow of battling leukaemia, Sacred Intent is a unique journey in which the art of conversation blooms to the highest degree." -- Distributor's website
