When the Cooper pair in the superconductor broke, the quasiparticles were able to make their way, via so-called quantum mechanical tunnelling, through the insulation to the copper, where the researchers observed them with a charge detector. Picture: Aalto Superconductors are a cornerstone of quantum computers and particle detectors, among other things. However, a common problem is that their effic

Donald Trumps tullkrig har dominerat årets nyhetsflöde. Men enligt nationalekonomen Fredrik NG Andersson riskerar vi att stirra oss blinda på de kortsiktiga effekterna. I själva verket står världen inför en ny maktordning som på sikt förändrar både politik och ekonomi – och markerar slutet för 1990-talets världsbild. Osäkerheten kring tullarna har väckt en rad frågor: vilka blir de omedelbara effe

Medieskandaler är nödvändiga. De fungerar som en generator för det som vi måste prata om. Det menar Mia-Marie Hammarlin, forskare vid Institutionen för medie- och kommunikationsvetenskap, som djupintervjuat ett dussintal personer som varit utsatta för drev. I intervjuerna framgår också – inte förvånande – ett stort mänskligt lidande. Medieskandaler är visserligen en mycket gammal företeelse, men p

Små barn som kinkar med maten, som inte vill äta, eller som kräks upp merparten av det som kommit ned – och det efter du redan har gett insulin inför måltiden. Vad kan man göra? Truga i något sött? Bra om det fungerar men om det inte gör det? Italienska forskare har undersökt hur det fungerar att ge små barn med alltför lågt blodsocker, oavsett orsak, minidoser av det blodsockerhöjande hormonet gl

What does the origin of life on Earth have to do with malignant tumour cells? In an unusual research project, a geochemist and a tumour biologist have joined forces to explain the emergence of animals in a new way, thereby questioning one of the cornerstones of evolution. Geochemist Emma Hammarlund is excited to see what kind of response she and Sven Påhlman will get based on their conclusions. We
