Cluster dynamics - a step towards complexity Photoinduced processes in complex systems can be modeled as a sequence of events initiated by the absorption of a photon. Photoionization of an atomic electron is followed by electronic relaxation which results in a migration of charge within the atom. The need to understand how this initial event leads to higher ionization states and dynamic effects in

The goal of the investigations is to gain an increased understanding of the complex catalytic reactions, for applications in the production of technical catalysts to enhance the reaction rates and improve the selectivity. Our approach is to use appropriate model systems that can be structural and chemically characterized by established surface science techniques for later operando investigations [

It is next to impossible to perform operando experiments without prior detailed atom scale information on the model catalyst, due to the complexity of the gas-surface interaction and the data interpretation. We will therefore apply our standard UHV surface science techniques available to us such as Scanning Tunnelling Microscopy (STM), High Resolution Core Level Spectroscopy (HRCLS), Low-Energy El

Aluminum is used in a vast number of everyday applications in modern society. During the last 5-10 years we have studied the electro chemical anodization (electro-oxidation) of aluminium and aluminium alloys [1], an industrial process to increase the corrosion resistance and color of aluminium, using Grazing Incidence X-ray Diffraction (GISXRD), X-Ray Reflectivity (XRR) and Grazing Incidence Small

Duplex Stainless Steels (DSS) are complex high-strength and corrosion resistant materials used in many applications. Nevertheless they still corrode, and in a collaboration with the group of Jinshan Pan at KTH in Stockholm, we perform in situ studies at various synchrotrons of DSS as they corrode using a combination of GISXRD, Transmission XRD, XRR, and X-Ray Fluorescence [1].Reference[1] Redefini

Very recently, we have initiated a project in electro catalysis using model electrodes for a fundamental understanding of the structure-activity relation during the Oxygen and Hydrogen Evolution Reactions (OER and HER) as well as the electro oxidation of hydrocarbons. Here we combine techniques such as HESXRD, 2D-SOR, Cyclic Voltammetry (CV) and Electro Chemical XPS (ECXPS).Reference[1] An electro

In the beginning of the 1950's, prof Knut Lundmark at Lund Observatory suggested a stylish Milky Way panaroma of the sky in a Hammer projection. With support from Hierta-Retzius fond and Kungl. Fysiografiska Sällskapet i Lund, the engineers Martin Kesküla and Tatjana Kesküla painted a metre map showing the galactic coordinates, 7000 stars, and the Milky Way in this very projection. The computation

The Division of Astrophysics has moved from Sölvegatan 27 to Professorsgatan 1. Our offices are on the top floor of building A. The physics and astronomy library can also be found in the physics building. Traveling to Lund  Please note that the nearest international airport to us is in Copenhagen.  From there the train ride to Lund takes ca 40 minutes.  The easiest way to get from the Lund central

At Lund Observatory we study planets orbiting distant star – exoplanets.  We are particularly interested in the formation of exoplanets in gaseous protoplanetary discs, the stability and survivability of planetary systems and exoplanetary atmospheres. Listed bellow are a few of our ongoing projects. Observing exoplanet atmospheres with state-of-the-art spectrographs Researchers include: Jens Hoeji

The main aim of my research is to unravel the origin and evolution of large spiral galaxies like our own Milky Way. This is best done by by probing and mapping in detail the age, chemical abundance, and kinematical properties of its main structural components. To do this I have utilised different tracers: dwarf stars in the solar neighbourhood, red giant stars in the inner and outer regions of the

The Universe belongs us all... or perhaps it belongs to no one. We who study the Universe are always happy to share stories and insight with the public. Here are some examples of what we do: Astronomers always give several talks at the annual NMT days. These talks are aimed at high school students and their teachers. Our seminars are open to all who wish to attend, but do require some basic unders
