The risk of exposure to covid-19 virus particles increases the closer you are to a patient, the higher virus levels of the patient, and if ventilation is inadequate. Measurements of viruses in the hospital air by researchers at Lund University provide new knowledge on how best to adapt care to reduce the risk of infection. The international guidelines that currently exist in healthcare need revisi

A research group at Lund University has succeeded in creating a hydrogen-producing system using an iron complex as a light-absorbing dye. The new discovery could be an important piece of the puzzle for large-scale, environmentally friendly hydrogen production in the future. Hydrogen is a highly efficient energy carrier that can be used to transport, store and provide energy. The gas, which consist

For the first time, researchers have succeeded in growing vertically aligned, free-standing metal halide perovskite (MHP) nanowires. This scalable, self-aligned, and lithography-free approach to achieving high-quality free-standing MHP nanowires arrays and heterostructures, offers new possibilities for optoelectronic applications such as solar cells, light-emitting diodes, and X-ray detectors. “In

We all know that when it burns, it smokes. But what do we really know about the contents of that smoke and how it is affected by different fire processes? Not only that, but how do these smoke particles affect the emergency personnel who are first on the scene? Researchers at NanoLund and LTH, in a unique experiment with the Swedish Civil Contingencies Agency (MSB), have conducted measurements to

Leveransmallen för data från delprogrammet Svensk Dagfjärilsövervakning finns nu tillgänglig på sidan "Leverera data". Varje mall är specifikt utformad för respektive program, men med utgångspunkten att data från alla program ska kunna presenteras på ett likartat sätt i en kommande databas. Mallen är väl genomtänkt men har ännu inte testats i praktiken. Den kan därför komma att justeras efterhand.

Datamängden från standardrutterna som ligger på gbif.org har uppdaterats med 2019 års data. Samtidigt rättade vi till ett misstag som innebär att data från en specifik rutt har tagits bort för fyra år. Trots allas bästa ansträngningar är det i stort sett oundvikligt att något fel smyger sig in i en datamängd. Men så fort sådant uppdagas så rättar vi till det hela och uppdaterar de publicerade data
