Quasar observed in 6 separate light reflections

Using a special method where you observe light that has been bent by gravity on its way through the universe, a group of physics students from NBI have observed a quasar whose light has been deflected and reflected in

Quantum communication controlled by resonance in ‘artificial atoms’

Researchers at NBI among others have developed a method to control a quantum bit for electronic quantum communication in a series of quantum dots, which behave like artificial atoms in the solid state

Peter Krogstrup appointed assistant professor at QDev on nanowire growth

As of May 2013, Peter Krogstrup has been appointed assistant professor at the Center for Quantum Devices. He will be working on MBE growth of nanowires.

Quantum teleportation between atomic systems over long distances

The research group Quantum Optics at NBI has succeeded in teleporting information between two clouds of gas atoms and to carry out the teleportation – not just one or a few times, but successfully every single time

Rounded stones on Mars evidence of flowing water

Observations by NASA's Mars rover Curiosity have revealed areas with gravel and pebbles that are characteristic of a former riverbed. Researchers, including members of the Niels Bohr Institute, have analysed their...

Today's global warming follows more than 1000 years of colder climates

A new international study of past climate shows that the global temperature was getting colder and colder for more than 1000 years until the year 1900, after which global warming raised the temperature significantly in…

Researchers close to finding habitable planets

Researchers from the Niels Bohr Institute and Aarhus University are part of a team that has discovered a planetary system with five small planets of which two are super-Earth sized and lie in the habitable zone.

Denmark contributing to the world's largest telescope for searching for life in the unive

The Niels Bohr Institute at the University of Copenhagen, Aarhus University and DTU space are investing at total of 37 million kroner in a new telescope, which will be called the European Extremely Large Telescope,…

Most distant Type Ia supernova observed

In the quest to find the most distant supernova, researchers have broken the record and observed a supernova that exploded more than 10 billion years ago. This was in the early youth of the universe when it was evolvin…
