Archaeologist Peter Jordan has together with colleagues from the UK and the US received the prestigious ERC Synergy Grant. The research aims to shed new light on the demography of hunter-gatherer societies, potentially shifting our understanding of human history over the past 10,000 years entirely. The project FORAGER will examine why certain hunter-gatherer societies experienced both population g

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. Researchers from Lund University in Sweden and from Fudan University in China have successfully designed a new structural organization using the promising solar cell material perovskite. The study shows that solar cells increase in efficiency thanks to the material’s ability to self-organise by standing on edge. The c

Physics researchers at Lund University in Sweden recently succeeded in constructing small solar radiation-collecting antennas – nanowires – using three different materials that are a better match for the solar spectrum compared with today’s silicon solar cells. As the nanowires are light and require little material per unit of area, they are now to be installed for tests on satellites, which are p
