“If we succeed, this could be a method that helps find materials to build quantum computers that can withstand higher temperatures, with the possibility of fast operations,” says Mathieu Gisselbrecht. This is a quantum mechanical phenomenon that can best be described as an ensemble of particles for which the quantum state of each individual particle cannot be described independently of the state o

We should not be afraid to joke about one another’s ethnic background. Used with sensitivity, such jokes can instead help to challenge the stereotypical image of immigrants, according to Lund University sociologist Henriette Frees Esholdt, who has studied humour at a multi-ethnic workplace in Denmark. Henriette Frees Esholdt’s study was carried out in a large organisation in the hospitality sector
