Modern computers are a triumph of technology. A single computer chip contains billions of nanometre-scaled transistors that operate extremely reliably and at a rate of millions of operations per second. However, this high speed and reliability come at the cost of significant energy consumption: data centres and household IT appliances like computers and smartphones account for around 3% of global

Every day, huge amounts of satellite images are collected from the Earth's surface – data that shows everything from deforestation to urbanization and the effects of climate change. Now, with the support of the Swedish National Space Board, a new competence center is being established to make it easier for social scientists to use space-based information. The new national center, the Swedish Compe

Solar power can convert carbon dioxide into fuel, by using advanced materials and ultra-fast laser spectroscopy. The breakthrough could be an important piece of the puzzle in reducing the levels of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere in the future. The study is published in Nature Communications. The sunlight that hits Earth during one hour corresponds roughly to humanity’s total energy consumption

Corrosion-resistant metallic materials are required in applications such as rocket engines, nuclear power stations and chemical industry. An alloy of nickel, chromium and molybdenum is often used. However, a new study shows that this alloy rusts in a previously unknown way. Buildings, modes of transport, artworks and music instruments – we encounter metallic materials almost everywhere in society.

Allowing nature to cover up after human activities, known as rewilding, has several benefits. It improves the resilience of ecosystems, increases biodiversity and favours the interaction between nature and society. This is according to a new study from Lund University. Rewilding is a method that aims to re-establish animal and plant species that have disappeared from a particular area. In a new st

Petra Holmberg, postdoc in medical law at the Faculty of Law, won the Research Grand Prix competition in Helsingborg on 7 October. In front of an audience of over 500 secondary school students, she presented her research on the risks of 80 per cent of Gen Z using chatbots to manage stress or anxiety. “It’s not surprising, AI feels simple and safe. But my research shows that it can be downright dan

Forskare vid Lunds universitet medverkar i ett internationellt projekt som förändrar tillgången till några av världens äldsta skriftliga källor. Inom ramen för samarbetet har ett arabiskt digitalt gränssnitt utvecklats för att göra kilskriftstexter – skrivna på lertavlor i det forntida Mesopotamien under mer än tre årtusenden – tillgängliga för nya målgrupper. Projektet leds av ett team av forskar

Enkla, billiga pellets av salt kan enkelt mäta stråldoser vid ofrivillig exponering, och kan även användas inom sjukvården och kärnkraftsindustrin. När saltet pressas samman till pellets förenklas hanteringen och dess egenskaper att mäta strålning förbättras. 102 olika undersökta hushållssalter från 47 länder bekräftades vara lämpliga att användas för att mäta eller beräkna strålning. Det visar en

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. As odd as it sounds, many scientists have attempted to place extremely small diamonds inside living cells. Why? Because nanodiamonds are consistently bright and can give us unique knowledge about the inner life of cells over a long time. Now physics researchers Elke Hebisch and Christelle Prinz from the strategic rese
