That physics has a long history in Lund is no exaggeration. The subject is already present when the university is founded in 1666. In 1735, the department gets its first own premises in Kungshuset in Lundagård. At the department, research is currently conducted in almost all areas of modern physics. The Department of Physics is one of Lund University's largest departments with almost 400 employees

Dear Colleagues,This Tuesday, we had our usual Department meeting, Mötesplats Rydberg, this time with a research seminar on “Future fuels – combustion research for sustainable transportation”. I many ways, our meeting was as interesting and inspiring as usual, but still very much has changed since the preceding Mötesplats Rydberg. This is what I said in the beginning of the seminar:“Today is a ver
Dear Colleagues,On Friday the 17th of December, the Board of the Department of Physics decided on the formation of a Department Research Committee, from 1 January 2022. The new committee shall be a preparatory and advisory body for the Board of the Department and the Department Management. The committee’s tasks comprise, among others, to work with the Department’s research strategy and the recruit
Hey!On the wall in the Faculty Club at Kårhuset is a protocol from the meeting when the decision was made to build Kårhuset. The minutes end with "Here we go!"I got some of that feeling today when I read the summaries of the Science Village referral responses. You can do that too, on the Science Village office's blog. It can rightly be said that there is a great deal of agreement between the physi
