A surprising behaviour of atoms is giving scientists new insights into one of the most fundamental phenomena in nature: the absorption of light. A new physical phenomenon for light pulses has been discovered. The study, published in the prestigious journal Physical Review Letters, was conducted by physicists at Lund University. In the world of atoms, the laws of nature as we know them do not apply

In a new study published in Science Advances, researchers Gabriele Cobucci and Armin Tavakoli present a new method to analyze a complex form of quantum entanglement involving multiple particles. The new method opens a door to a deeper understanding of quantum mechanics, a field known for its strange and often counterintuitive phenomena. Quantum entanglement, where particles are coupled together so

Scientists have found an alternative way to produce atoms of the superheavy element livermorium. The new method opens up the possibility of creating another element that could be the heaviest in the world so far: number 120. The search for new elements comes from the dream of finding a variant that is sufficiently stable to be long-lived and not prone to immediate decay. There is a theory in nucle

A new technology that makes hydrogen from forestry and agricultural residues that are currently burnt is being developed at Lund University. The plan is to efficiently produce a green gas that society needs - while cutting carbon emissions. The researchers' European consortium has received SEK 37 million from the EU Innovation Fund to realise the technology. Renewable hydrogen is no longer conside

For the first time, scientists have been able to measure the quantum state of electrons ejected from atoms that have absorbed high-energy light pulses. This is thanks to a new measurement technique developed by researchers at Lund University. This could provide a better understanding of fundamental research in the second generation of quantum revolution. When high-energy light with a very short wa
