With the help of mirrors, placed only a few hundred nanometers apart, a research team has managed to use light more efficiently. The finding could eventually be useful for controlling solar energy conversion during photosynthesis, or other reactions driven by light. For example, one application could be converting carbon dioxide into fuel. The sunlight that hits Earth for one hour is almost equiva

High concentrations of salt in agricultural soil is an environmental problem that has plagued human civilization from its very beginning. Also in modern times, salinization of soils is a problem restricting agricultural productivity. Irrigation can make areas suitable for agriculture that would otherwise be too dry to

The emergence of a mysterious area in the South Atlantic where the geomagnetic field strength is decreasing rapidly, has led to speculation that Earth is heading towards a magnetic polarity reversal. However, a new study that pieces together evidence stretching back 9,000 years, suggests that the current changes aren’t unique, and that a reversal may not be in the cards after all. The study is pub

We tend to attribute today's zoological menagerie of dog breeds to Victorian gentlemen with a penchant for selective breeding. The truth, however, goes back much further. An international study shows that the rich morphological variety among dogs began to take off 11,000 years ago – long before nineteenth century kennel clubs. Look at the dogs of today: the dainty Chihuahua, which most resembles a

The large-eyed bristle worm Vanadis has long been of interest to the world’s vision researchers. But the worm has been difficult to study since it lives in the open sea and is active at night. Now, a research team has succeeded in locating an Italian worm colony and is able to confirm that the worm has completely unique vision. Bristle worms are a group of annelid worms that mostly live in the sea

The Darknet is often described as criminal, lawless and in need of external control. New research by sociologist Tove Westberg, however, shows that cryptoforums on the Darknet function as complex social communities, shaped by norms, trust and informal social control.

När Kansli S. flyttar in i Allhelgonaskolan kommer många av medarbetarna behöva vänja sig vid förändrade arbetssätt – och arbeta mer aktivitetsbaserat.

Ju bättre blodsockerkontroll en diabetespatient har desto större är risken att råka ut för en trafikolycka, enligt en kanadensisk undersökning. Vid ett bra sockerläge är avståndet till ett för lågt blodsocker mindre. Därför är sambandet mellan en god blodsockerkontroll och risken för blodsockerfall naturlig och väl
