This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. The dance that binary stars do around each other offers new clues to the chemical evolution of our Galaxy, the Milky Way – so says a current research study. For the first time, researchers have identified the link between the orbiting times of certain binary stars and the amount of iron in their interiors. Binary star

Video streamlines teaching During the pandemic, we were largely forced to start using different tools in order to continue to provide our students with the teaching they needed. Video became one of the tools that facilitated this. Video streamlined teaching; we did not need to host Zoom lectures for everything. Students also gained flexibility in their learning, m

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. How do bees always find their way home, not to mention in a straight line? What is it about the insect brain that allows them to navigate so easily? Could we copy that function? A step in this direction has now been taken by a group of scientists in a project combining the fields of biology, physics, nanoscience and i

Researchers at Lund University, together with colleagues at the NIST Synchrotron Facility in the USA, have mapped on an atomic level what happens in a virus particle when the temperature is raised. “When the temperature rises, the virus’s genetic material changes its form and density, becoming more fluid-like, which leads to its rapid injection into the cell,” says Alex Evilevitch who led the stud
