Martin Bech, senior lecturer in medical radiation physics, has been awarded a prestigious ERC Consolidator Grant. Over a five-year period, he will conduct several exciting projects within X-ray microscopy which, among other things, can be used to generate 3D images of human tissue. Over the past decade, the use of X-ray microscopy has increased in the world of research. In contrast to standard lig

Solar storms can be far more powerful than previously thought. A new study has found evidence for the third known case of a massive solar storm in historical times. The researchers believe that society might not be sufficiently prepared if a similar event were to happen now. Our planet is constantly being bombarded by cosmic particles. However, at times the stream of particles is particularly stro

Extensive power outages and satellite blackouts that affect air travel and the internet are some of the potential consequences of massive solar storms. These storms are believed to be caused by the release of enormous amounts of stored magnetic energy due to changes in the magnetic field of the sun’s outer atmosphere - something that until now has eluded scientists’ direct measurement. Researchers

In March this year, LINXS received a new organisational placement within the Faculty of Science. Rather than being part of the Department of Chemistry, LINXS is now established as a separate unit reporting directly to the Dean. The decision follows a strategic review and an external evaluation of the organisation conducted last year, both of which yielded very positive results.Established in 2017,

Climate change has become one of the defining social and environmental challenges of our time. In light of the public and political attention that the issue has gained, the need for informed and critical perspectives on this important topic is more urgent than ever.  At LUCSUS, we believe that climate change knowledge needs to be integrated in all aspects of society in order to facilitate the tran

New research in five EU countries reveals stakeholders’ views on what is needed to enable a shift towards 1.5° C-compatible lifestyles. Bans and taxes for unsustainable behaviour and outcomes, positive incentives for low-carbon attitudes, and better public funding for basic services, are seen as essential climate policies to overcome current barriers to action at the household level - according to
