When light ejects electrons from atoms, understanding their full quantum nature goes beyond measuring momentum. Using quantum-state tomography, researchers reconstructed the complete quantum states of electrons emitted from helium and argon atoms by ultrashort extreme-ultraviolet light pulses. They found that helium produces a pure state, while argon’s spin–orbit interaction entangles the electron

Electrotherapy using injectable nanoparticles delivered directly into the tumour could pave the way for new treatment options for glioblastoma, according to a new study from Lund University in Sweden. “By drop casting the nanoparticles into the tumour cavity after an operation, we could electrify the edges while the immune system is also activated”, says Roger Olsson, professor of Chemical Biology

Physics World reports that Researchers at NanoLund have grown single continuous GaAs nanowires consisting of segments of pure wurtzite and zincblende phases. Using photoluminescence spectroscopy, they found that the spatial confinement along the radius of a nanowire resulted in bending of the band structure of the material.Read the article "Radial band bending at wurtzite–zinc-blende–GaAs interfac

Understanding interface formation between InAs semiconductors and hafnium dioxide insulating layers Most semiconductor devices are still based on silicon, even though other semiconductor materials such as InAs have superior electrical properties. The problem with these materials is that their interface towards thin insulating layers, which are needed for e.g. transistor processing, contains many d

Hur mycket vatten behöver vi dricka för att vi ska hålla oss friska? Vilken effekt får olika dieter på ämnesomsättningen? Studier av olika hormoner i kroppen ger diabetesforskare nya svar. Förhoppningen är att utveckla individanpassade behandlingar och kostråd som kan minska risken att utveckla fetma och sjukdomar som typ 2-diabetes. Hormonsystemet samarbetar med nervsystemet och styr mycket av de

En stor norsk undersökning visar att den som känner sig ensam löper en betydande ökad risk att insjukna i typ 2-diabetes. Bland de deltagare som på frågan om de känt sig ensamma under de senaste två veckorna svarade ”väldigt mycket” var risken för diabetes fördubblad jämfört med de som inte känt sig ensamma. Den stora norska HUNT-studien har pågått sedan 1984 och är ett samarbete mellan flera nors

Typ 2-diabetes utvecklas i regel långsamt och eftersom symtomen kommer smygande märker många inte att de har insjuknat. Nu har forskare i Storbritannien screenat ett stort antal människor i åldrarna 40 till 70 år. Forskarlaget har funnit att en allmän screening av långtidsvärdet av blodsockret (HbA1c) skulle kunna påskynda en diabetesdiagnos med drygt två år, vilket i sin tur skulle leda till att

I en stor internationell undersökning, i huvudsak dansk, fann forskarna ett samband mellan mammans intag av gluten under graviditeten och barnets framtida risk att insjukna i typ 1 diabetes. Sambandet var starkt och risken ökade proportionellt – ju mer gluten kvinnan hade ätit, desto större diabetesrisk. Drygt 67 000 graviditeter, där uppgifterna var tillräckligt kompletta om kvinnans glutenintag

Vad händer när patienter med typ 2-diabetes själv får välja vilken behandling de ska få? Hittills har forskningen i stort blivit svaret skyldig. Men nu har forskare vid universitetet i Exeter, England, undersökt saken i en studie som har publicerats i Nature Medicine. Det kortfattade svaret på frågan är att det går bra. I studien fick 448 patienter med typ 2-diabetes testa tre vanliga diabetestabl

Forskare i Los Angeles, USA, har undersökt 36 olika bakteriesorter som lever i mag-tarmkanalen och har identifierat tio som har samband med normal insulinkänslighet och bättre blodsockerkontroll. Två av de undersökta bakteriestammarna hade en negativ effekt på insulinkänslighet och blodsockerbalans. Både otillräcklig utsöndring av insulin från bukspottkörteln och ett försämrat svar på insulin i kr
