Researchers reveal deficiencies in “corrosion-resistant” metallic materials

Corrosion-resistant metallic materials are required in applications such as rocket engines, nuclear power stations and chemical industry. An alloy of nickel, chromium and molybdenum is often used. However, a new study shows that this alloy rusts in a previously unknown way. Buildings, modes of transport, artworks and music instruments – we encounter metallic materials almost everywhere in society.

Increase in forest fires may damage the crucial ozone layer

All particles that reach the atmosphere cause different chemical reactions. Particles come partly from natural sources such as volcanic eruptions and forest fires, and partly from pollution and emissions. Aerosol researcher Johan Friberg studies particles at high altitudes. He fears that the global increase in forest fires could have a significant impact on the ozone layer. “I study the air in the

Understanding the behaviour of light and matter - key to future technologies

If we can understand how and why light and matter behave as they do, we are one step closer to solving some of the most fundamental problems in physics. Finding the answers to these questions drives Ville Maisi, Associate Professor of Solid States Physics, Department of Physics. As long as he can remember he has been interested electric circuits and physics. With the support of a new ERC Consolida

Astronomers have managed to date three mysterious baby stars at the heart of the Milky Way

By analysing high-resolution data from a 10-metre telescope in Hawaii, researchers in Lund, Sweden, have managed to gain new insights into three stars in the centre of the Milky Way. The stars turned out to be unusually young with a puzzling chemical composition that surprises the researchers. In the study, which is published in the scientific journal The Astrophysical Journal Letters, the Lund re

Everyday laser flashes and real-world attosecond physics

Down in the basement of the Department of Physics, the now world-famous short laser pulses are fired almost daily. This is home to Sweden’s cutting-edge research in attosecond physics. According to Per Eng-Johnsson, professor in atomic, molecular and optical physics, the research field is currently in the midst of a paradigm shift. The term “DIY” may appear to be an unlikely description of a high-

Snails illustrate how new materials can be built at the nano level

Jonas Johansson is a professor of physics and develops new knowledge for the production of materials at the nanoscale. Anastasia Tsioki is a first-year student on LTH's MSc in Engineering Nanoscience programme. When Jonas was about to publish a scientific article, he turned to Anastasia to illustrate a proposed cover image. The magazine immediately accepted her illustration as the front page image

New way of designing circuits could lead to large-scale quantum computers

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

Detecting "Spooky Action at a Distance" with imperfect detectors

Entanglement, once dismissed by Einstein as an impossible phenomenon but later shown to be possible by Nobel Prize-winning physicists, continues to raise questions. How can we know that a particle has been controlled? How can we know that the measurements of entanglement we think we are detecting are not in fact misleading due to inadequate detectors? In a new scientific paper, Armin Tavakoli demo

New super-simulation of how galaxies are formed

Astronomers can use supercomputers to simulate the formation of galaxies from the Big Bang 13.8 billion years ago to the present day. But there are a number of sources of error. An international research team, led by Lund University and Seoul National University, has spent hundreds of millions of computer hours over eight years trying to correct these. The last decade has seen major advances in co

New key to the world of quantum mechanics: the intensity of light affects electrons’ kinetic energy

Particles, sometimes a long way from one another, can be entangled. This strange phenomenon completely confounds our intuition, but the explanation for it has been provided through quantum mechanics. Researchers at the Department of Physics show in a new study that entanglement can also be created in a new way, with the help of intense light, and that they can change the kinetic energy of electron
