Using high-resolution spectroscopy, researchers at Lund University in Sweden have succeeded in mapping the atmosphere of an exoplanet located 322 light years from Earth. The knowledge gained about the hot gas surrounding the Jupiter-like planet is important for the understanding of Earth-like planets. WASP-189b is a planet outside our own solar system, with a dayside temperature of 3,200 degrees C

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. Biologists at Lund University in Sweden are now able to show that the receptors enabling the primitive moth species, Eriocrania semipurpurella, find an individual of the opposite sex, probably evolved from receptors which help the moth perceive the fragrances of plants. “Love is in the air” is a known expression. And

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. Solar storms can be far more powerful than previously thought. A new study has found evidence for the third known case of a massive solar storm in historical times. The researchers believe that society might not be sufficiently prepared if a similar event were to happen now. Our planet is constantly being bombarded by

Men with severely reduced fertility are at greater risk of developing other health conditions later in life. A research team from Lund University in Sweden has now shown that these men are also more likely to develop colorectal cancer and thyroid cancer. The link between male infertility and an increased risk of disease is a relatively new area of research in reproductive health. Previous studies

Researchers at Lund University’s Lund Stem Cell Center have made a new discovery about how the human genome protects itself from disruption during critical stages of life. Their study, recently published in Nature Communications, reveals how two key defense mechanisms—DNA methylation and the HUSH complex—work together to safeguard genomic stability. The human genome contains large stretches of rep

Forskare vid Lunds universitet och DTU i Köpenhamn har upptäckt enzymer i tjocktarmen som, när de blandas med röda blodkroppar, kan klippa bort delar av de kolhydrater som skiljer våra ABO-blodgrupper från varandra. Metoden tar oss närmare drömmen om ett universalblod för alla. Sedan länge är det känt att blod från olika individer inte kan blandas hur som helst utan risk för allvarliga konsekvense

Nordic and Andean countries started their economic modernisation in the same way: with export of raw natural resources. Later on, Norway and Sweden became rich, while Bolivia, Chile and Peru followed a quite different path. What made them diverge from the common road? Different fiscal policies may be one of the reasons, new research from Lund University suggests. In the mid-19th century, Norway ex
