Fjärilens vingslag överraskar forskare

Fjärilarnas vingar är unikt stora och breda i förhållande till resten av kroppen jämfört med vingarna hos andra flygande insekter och hos fåglar. Nu har forskare vid Lunds universitet studerat aerodynamiken när fjärilarna flyger. Resultaten förklarar nyttan med den extrema vingformen och de flexibla vingarna och kan komma till användning vid tillverkning av små drönare. Lundaforskarna har i detalj

Kärnfysikalisk seglats mot mytomspunnen ö

Redan i slutet av 1960-talet lanserades teorier om en möjlig förekomst av supertunga grundämnen. Deras mest långlivade atomkärnor skulle kunna ge upphov till en så kallad ”stabilitetsö” långt bortom grundämnet uran. Men nu visar en studie, som letts av kärnfysiker vid Lunds universitet, att ett 50 år gammalt kärnfysikmanifest måste revideras. Det tyngsta grundämnet som finns i naturen är uran, var

Militärer, ormar och maratonlöpare i svamparnas värld

Forskare vid Lunds universitet har upptäckt hur svampar besitter individuella karaktärsdrag, och hur deras hyfer (enskilda svamptrådar i jorden) beter sig på olika sätt när de utforskar och tar sig fram genom jordens mikroskopiska labyrinter. Undersökningarna har gjorts i laboratorium och de underjordiska gångarna har tillverkats syntetiskt av silikonpolymer. I mikroskop har forskarna kunnat följa

ERC grant awarded to research project on protein motors

Building engines – out of proteins. That’s the aim for a research project, coordinated by Heiner Linke at NanoLund, Lund University in Sweden. The project is now being funded by the European Research Council (ERC) – it received a EUR 10 million ERC Synergy Grant. The 2016 Nobel Prize in Chemistry was awarded to researchers who developed molecular machines, that is, molecules that convert light int

The Lund Strategic Research Areas looking into the future

The complex challenges in our society require new solutions. We need high-quality, challenge-relevant research brought together in collective efforts over subject and sector boundaries, combined with strong curiosity-driven research. With this need in mind, the Strategic Research Areas (SRAs) were initiated about ten years ago. Lund University has now launched a new strategy for its SRAs. NanoLund

Imaging the X-ray focus of NanoMAX with a single nanowire

A team of researchers from Lund University has imaged the beam focus at the hard X-ray nanoprobe NanoMAX using a single nanowire as the detector. The result is an unprecedented ultrahigh-resolution 3D image of the 88 nanometer diameter focus revealing fine details of the beam. “A basic way of describing an X-ray experiment is that a well-defined beam illuminates a sample and interacts with it.

Nanoparticles deliver drugs to the brain

A new method that slowly releases drugs locally in the brain has been developed by researchers at Lund University in Sweden. The drug is encapsulated in nanoparticles and delivered to the brain tissue via flexible electrodes. The method has been tested on mice and published in the Journal of Nanobiotechnology among others – and was recently presented in a doctoral thesis. The brain is both our mos

Medal to founder of Semiconductor Physics research in Lund

Hermann Grimmeiss, who founded the research field of Semiconductor Physics in Lund, has been awarded the Daniel Ernst Jablonski Medal of the Leibniz Society of Sciences in Berlin. In 1965-1996,  Prof. emerit. Hermann Grimmeiss was appointed as first professor in Solid State Physics and Head of the Department at the Technical University in Lund, and thus created the cradle of what later developed i

Could singing spread Covid-19?

If silence is golden, speech is silver – and singing the worst. Singing doesn’t need to be silenced, however, but at the moment the wisest thing is to sing with social distancing in place. The advice comes from aerosol researchers Jakob Löndahl and Malin Alsved at Lund University. They have studied the amount of particles we actually emit when we sing – and by extension – if we contribute to the i

Observing the emergence of a quantum phase transition shell by shell

By studying cold atoms, researchers have in a unique way been able to observe a precursor to a quantum phase transition, and thereby study physical processes that can be compared to the Higgs mechanism. The discovery can, among other things, provide more knowledge about quantum mechanical processes that are similar to the processes in which matter changes its state from gas, liquid, or solid form

Fluorescent nanodiamonds successfully injected into living cells

As odd as it sounds, many scientists have attempted to place extremely small diamonds inside living cells. Why? Because nanodiamonds are consistently bright and can give us unique knowledge about the inner life of cells over a long time. Now physics researchers Elke Hebisch and Christelle Prinz from the strategic research area NanoLund have succeeded in injecting a large number of nanodiamonds dir

How to make smarter and more efficient electronics

We are facing new challenges, and consequently we need the development of electronics to continue. But the question is: how do we do that? Mattias Borg, co-coordinator of Exploratory Nanotechnology, explains how. The basis of the electronics we use today, such as home computers and mobile phones, was invented more than 50 years ago. And in recent years its development has begun to stall. According
