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

Nanoparticles can be used to detect certain lung diseases. The AiDA measurement method – based on the inhalation of nanoparticles – is easy to use and can complement other lung examinations. The method has now been tested on over 800 people, and the results look promising, according to a new thesis in aerosol technology. Measuring the structure of the lung is difficult; even lung scans cannot reli
