Our research
At the Department of Physics, cutting-edge research is conducted within a number of exciting topics. Our researchers study things like nanomagnets, extremely strong lasers, AI for active matter, horses in space, just to name a few. The research targets areas on energy, power and matter for a sustainable world.
Spanning from atomic and molecular physics, nano-materials and biophysics to complex systems and the physics of condensed matter, the research at the Department of Physics covers a wide range of areas. The researchers take a physical sciences approach addressing several of the major challenges that our world is facing today regarding sustainable energy, conducting pioneering research and close collaborations.
Here, we have divided our research based on questions surrounding sustainable energy and matter, with each of the questions in turn divided into sub-areas with our research groups. Projects that fall outside of these areas are gathered under “Other research activities”.
