Perennial crops have the potential to reduce the need for ploughing and pesticides, which in turn can lead to reduced soil degradation and greenhouse gas emissions. Recently, a unique research infrastructure that has the potential to transform agriculture was inaugurated by the Department of Physical Geography and Ecosystem Science and LUCSUS, in collaboration with SLU Alnarp. The new facility, fu

Förra året lanserade forskare i Lund en banbrytande teori om att jorden bildades av småstenar som under miljontals år sögs ihop till en himlakropp. Denna förklaringsmodell stärks nu ytterligare genom en ny studie som visar att även kosmiskt damm spelade en avgörande roll för vår planets tillblivelse. Den har kommit att kallas småstensteorin. Den radikala idén om att Tellus gick från att vara en be

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. At the Academy of Music in Malmö, Peter Spissky from Czechoslovakia found an opportunity to develop his interest in baroque music – a genre that didn’t suit the political system in his homeland. Through his research on how gestures taken from speech, acting and dance can be compressed into the movement of the bow, he

Med hjälp av neutron- och röntgentomografi har ett forskarlag, lett från Lunds universitet, undersökt en meteorit från Mars. Tekniken, som förmodligen kommer att användas när Nasa runt 2030 hämtar hem prover från vår röda grannplanet, visade att meteoriten utsatts för mycket begränsad påverkan av vatten. I ett moln av rök landade Nasas fallskärmsförsedda rymdrover Perseverance på Mars dammiga yta

By utilising quantum mechanics, a quantum computer can solve computational problems that today's supercomputers cannot. But there are problems. As the circuits in quantum computers get bigger, they become more difficult to control. Now researchers have demonstrated a new way to construct quantum circuits for individual light particles. This could enable larger and more complex circuits - crucial t

Trump’s attack on US universities and their research is actually a broader attack on democratic values, according to historian of knowledge Johan Östling. By destroying them, the Trump administration is paving the way for a very different kind of society.  “We need to understand the breadth and depth of this offensive,” says Johan Östling.Could you put Trump’s actions against universities in the U
