Research at Lund University in Sweden has found a new way to create nano-sized magnetic particles using ultrafast laser light pulses. The discovery could pave the way for new and more energy-efficient technical components and become useful in the quantum computers of the future. Magnetic skyrmions are sometimes described as magnetic vortices. Unlike ferromagnetic states - which occur in convention

A common denominator in both the green transition and digitalization is the semiconductor. Despite the great importance of the small chip, Sweden and EU have lagged behind. Lund University, Chalmers University of Technology and KTH, and various Swedish companies are now joining forces to strengthen Sweden's expertise and infrastructure for semiconductor technology. The semiconductor is the "brain"

Under covid-19 pandemin ökade antalet fall av typ 1-diabetes i Sverige mer än förväntat – framförall hos barn under fem år och unga vuxna män. Hos barn mellan fem och nio år påskyndade infektionen insjuknandet i diabetes. Under 17 år följde forskarna förekomsten av typ 1-diabetes bland alla personer under 30 år i Sverige, för att uppskatta risken att utveckla diabetes efter en covid-19-infektion.
