This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. Ordinary table salt can be used to measure radiation from radioactive substances, provided that it is stored in the dark. This has been shown in a new thesis from Lund University in Sweden, where the method has been enhanced and tested on fallout from the nuclear disasters in Fukushima and Chernobyl. “Salt is readily

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. After your PhD, the clock starts ticking fast. For a young researcher there are no guarantees that you will have a long career in research. Still, you have to give it your all, often while combining it with having small children. There is no time for you to draw up a plan B. In this equation, Pontus Nordenfelt from Fu

Ever since it was invented in the 1960s, the laser has found new areas of use, and is today very useful in research, industry and society. In most laser applications, for example material processing, the laser can be placed very close to the area to be processed. However, there are many important application areas where this is problematic. For example, if you want to use the laser to study an are
