Byggandet av stora solenergiparker i Saharaöknen kan ha oväntade effekter på solenergin i världen – även i länder långt från Sahara. Solparkerna kan enligt nya simuleringar minska produktionen av solenergi i länder som USA, Indien och Kina. Att storskaliga solenergiparker kan påverka klimatet och ekosystemet i närområdet är välkänt. Detta då solpanelerna är mörkare än Saharas ljusa sand, vilket le

Under de senaste decennierna har tatueringstrenden ökat snabbt och i Sverige är nu var femte person tatuerad. En ny epidemiologisk studie från Lunds universitet tyder på att tatueringar kan vara en riskfaktor för lymfkörtelcancer, lymfom. Forskarna understryker därför behovet av mer forskning på området. Kunskapsläget kring långsiktiga hälsoeffekter av tatueringar är idag dåligt på grund av att om

A few sharp minds working together for almost an entire summer. The task: to tackle the problem that a couple of days of work generates so much data, that it would take months to analyse. Synchrotron X-ray diffraction is a technique that allows us to obtain precise and detailed structural information of materials and their properties, and to fundamentally understand physical processes at the atomi
