NEW THESIS ON ULTRA-FAST PHYSICS: By firing a short laser pulse at an atom, an electron can be ejected from its previous context. What happens to it, where does it go? In his thesis, Hugo Laurell develops a method to study ejected electrons and their behaviour. His work may have implications for the development of new materials and for photochemistry. Hi Hugo, you will defend your thesis soon, wha

Research in particle physics often relies on sizable, cutting-edge computing resources for analysing large datasets, producing simulation samples, or developing and running complex machine learning models. While particle physics has been a pioneer in dealing with many “big science” issues and raised the stakes in the Large Hadron Collider era,today it is by no means isolated. More and more researc

Professor Emerita Cecilia Jarlskog has been awarded the prestigious EPS High Energy and Particle Physics Prize. She is awarded the prize for discovering a way to determine a property called CP violation for both quarks and leptons. CP breaking means that certain particle reactions behave differently when you simultaneously change the sign of the particles' charges and their positions. It is as if

Delving into the realm where light and matter converge, Mattias Bertolino's embarks on a theoretical exploration of photoionization. Focusing on multiphoton ionization of noble gas atoms, using a mixture of extreme-ultraviolet and infrared light, he explores the intricate interplay between light and matter. He aims to improve our understanding of the fundamental interactions between light and matt

The Swedish Government Agency for Innovation Systems, Vinnova, will invest in 11 new competence centers starting in January 2024. Among the new ones, two are directly connected to NanoLund and the Department of Physics – which, together with the already existing center C3NiT, means that there are now three in total. New research environments for sustainable and digital transformation are emerging.

Corrosion-resistant metallic materials are required in applications such as rocket engines, nuclear power stations and chemical industry. An alloy of nickel, chromium and molybdenum is often used. However, a new study shows that this alloy rusts in a previously unknown way. Buildings, modes of transport, artworks and music instruments – we encounter metallic materials almost everywhere in society.

All particles that reach the atmosphere cause different chemical reactions. Particles come partly from natural sources such as volcanic eruptions and forest fires, and partly from pollution and emissions. Aerosol researcher Johan Friberg studies particles at high altitudes. He fears that the global increase in forest fires could have a significant impact on the ozone layer. “I study the air in the

If we can understand how and why light and matter behave as they do, we are one step closer to solving some of the most fundamental problems in physics. Finding the answers to these questions drives Ville Maisi, Associate Professor of Solid States Physics, Department of Physics.
