This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. Theories were introduced as far back as the 1960s about the possible existence of superheavy elements. Their most long-lived nuclei could give rise to a so-called “island of stability” far beyond the element uranium. However, a new study, led by nuclear physicists at Lund University, shows that a 50-year-old nuclear p

New international research has improved the accuracy of the parameters governing the expansion of the universe. This will help astronomers determine how the universe grew to its current state - and how it will evolve in the future. Małgorzata Bogdan, statistics professor at Lund University in Sweden, is one of the scientists behind the study. It is well established that the universe is expanding.

Solitary bees that ingested the pesticide clothianidin when foraging from rapeseed flowers became slower. In addition, the strawberries pollinated by these bees were smaller. This is shown by a new study from Lund University in Sweden. Strawberries are known to become bigger if bees have visited their flowers, but how strawberry growth is affected if the bees have been exposed to neonicotinoid ins
