Energisektorn är en av de sektorer där det både krävs en snabb och en långtgående omställning för att begränsa klimatförändringarnas effekter. Vilken betydelse har grundforskningen, som utforskar nya teorier och nya sätt att tänka, för att driva utvecklingen framåt? Solenergi har stor potential att kunna bli en av våra viktigaste energikällor. Energin i solstrålarna motsvarar mer än 15 000 gånger

Through its extensive digitisation of older card catalogues, Lund University Library has made an unexpected discovery: a copy of astronomer Copernicus' famous work from the 16th century, which presents the theory that the Earth revolves around the Sun. The discovery was made possible thanks to the new full-text search in Catalogue-1957, which makes the library's older material much more accessible

Economic conditions influence whether and when people choose to have children. A new report from the Swedish government inquiry A Future with Children, led by LUSEM economist Åsa Hansson, shows how financial risks – particularly for women – may be contributing to declining birth rates. Fewer children are being born in Sweden, and economic conditions may play a larger role than previously assumed.
