In late May and early June, the Pufendorf Themes will host their final events, presenting the interdisciplinary work carried out at the Pufendorf IAS over the past academic year. The events vary in format and audience – some are open to the public, while others are aimed at specially invited guests, depending on the content and purpose defined by each Theme. This year, we’re particularly happy to

Gifted and enthusiastic students work with the "layers of history" in our beautiful Sculpture Hall. Pufendorf IAS is situated in one of the most beautiful buildings in Lund (if we may say so ourselves), originally built in 1886. The last major renovation of the former Department of Physics and Classical Department was done in 2009, just before the Pufendorf Institute moved in. It was of great impo

In this thesis, an instrument using a broadband light beam for remote sensing of insects was developed. The thickness of a free-flying insect wing was measured at a distance of 85 m and with an accuracy of 2 nm. Insects play a key role in the ecosystem and are essential for biodiversity. Detecting and monitoring the millions of insects in our environment is a major challenge. The use of lasers and

Let me clarify that we are not referring to blood plasma, as that pertains to the field of biology. Instead, we are discussing the fourth state of matter, which can be envisioned as a mixture of electrons, atoms, and excited species. To put it simply, it can be described as an ionized gas or a "soup" of charged particles. Our research group focuses on exploring the applications of plasmas in diffe

What if it was possible to identify elements by simply shining a light on them? This proposed method might make it possible to do just that - by analysing just one photograph. Many of us have probably encountered a pen with” invisible” ink that is only visible if you shine on it with a UV lamp. Besides that, these are useful for writing secret messages, they also demonstrate an interesting phenome
