Astronomdagarna is a conference that gathers astronomers from across Sweden. It was held in Lund during October 2-4, 2024, with over 120 people attending. The national conference Astronomdagarna is held every other year, with different universities taking turns on hosting the conference. Back in 2022 the Astronomdagarna conference was held in Gothenburg. Last time the conference was here in Lun

A new instrument on the four-metre VISTA telescope at the European Southern Observatory in Chile has recently captured its first starlight. This marks the beginning of a new era in astronomy, as researchers prepare to map the sky in unprecedented detail. The instrument does not take ordinary images of the night sky. Instead, 4MOST – the Multi-Object Spectroscopic Telescope – collects spectra, that

In a recent paper, Nicholas Borsato, along with collaborators Jens Hoeijmakers, Bibiana Prinoth, Brian Thorsbro, and Rebecca Forsberg, provides insightful research on the complex atmospheric composition of the exoplanet KELT-9b. The team captured the exoplanet's spectra during transit, revealing numerous elements within its atmosphere.This study not only verifies the presence of previously known e

The European Space Agency Buissness Incubator Center (ESA BIC) hosted a meet-and-greet event at Ideon on April 25th. Local professionals got to know more about ESA BIC and about a few of the ongoing space projects in Lund. This was well received by the people attending the event, and rumor has it that ESA BIC will arrange more such events in the future.

Astronomers invited members of the public to look at the spring skies through the teaching telescopes. There are a number of both historical and modern telescopes at Lund Observatory. Usually these are used for teaching purposes but every now and then the astronomers decide to stay at work late into the evening in order to give members of the public the chance for some stargazing. This spring thr

There is so much more to space than just rocket science. So said Deborah Lygonis, CEO Friendbase AB and Investor Relations, Innovatum, at a national hybrid lunch meeting titled ”The Future of the Space Industry”, which was jointly organised by ESA BIC and Women In Space Sweden (WISS) on May the fourth. She went on to explain how the space industry loosly divides into ’Upstream’ (including rocket

The annual Space Research School was organized here in late August by Astronomic Youth (Astronomisk Ungdom) in collaboration with Lund Observatory. Attending this year's Space Research School were twenty intelligent, motivated and space-interested high school students from across Sweden. During their 10 days in Lund the group of high school students attended several lectures given by university

Bly. PCB. Bekämpningsmedel och bromerade flamskyddsmedel. Samt plasttillsatser och tungmetaller. Det var vad forskare i Lund hittade när de samlade in döda igelkottar för att undersöka vilka miljöföroreningar som finns i urbana miljöer. Urbana gröna områden är attraktiva för många vilda arter, men innehåller också en rad ohållbara syntetiska material och kemikalier. Igelkottar vandrar långa sträck

De senaste 40 åren har majoriteten av jordens sjöar ändrat färg. Det visar en ny studie där 32 miljoner satellitobservationer från drygt 67 000 vattendrag analyserats. Orsaken är omfattande förändringar i insjöarnas ekosystem. Sjöar är kritiska komponenter för jordens ekosystem. De fungerar som livsmiljöer för vatten- och landlevande arter, stödjer den biologiska mångfalden och upprätthåller den e

Ett forskarlag har studerat fyra märkliga stenar som hittats i en grusgrop strax utanför den lilla byn Kitkiöjärvi i Pajala kommun. Analyser av mineralkorn i stenarna visar att de härstammar från ett hittills okänt meteoritnedslag för 659 miljoner år sedan. Nu återstår jakten på nedslagskratern som lurar någonstans i närheten av grustaget. Ett forskarlag har studerat fyra märkliga stenar som hitta

The most common analytical method within population genetics is deeply flawed, according to a new study from Lund University. This may have led to incorrect results and misconceptions about ethnicity and genetic relationships. The method has been used in hundreds of thousands of studies, affecting results within medical genetics and even commercial ancestry tests. The study is published in Scienti

Solitary bees that ingested the pesticide clothianidin when foraging from rapeseed flowers became slower. In addition, the strawberries pollinated by these bees were smaller. This is shown by a new study from Lund University in Sweden. Strawberries are known to become bigger if bees have visited their flowers, but how strawberry growth is affected if the bees have been exposed to neonicotinoid ins
