Tasmanian devil with unprecedented flares
20-11-2023…r light pulses over a 120-day period, likely only a fraction of the total number. What processes were exactly at work – perhaps a newly formed compact object (black hole or neutron star) funnelling jets of stellar material outward at close to the speed of light – continues to be studied. In the case of LFBOTs, rapid rotation or a strong magnetic field are probably key components of their launching mechanisms. It is also possible that they are no…

Sustainable solutions are integrated into everyday life here, creating a friendly environment for both people and the planet. Starting with energy-efficient lighting systems, a bicycle park, photovoltaic modules and efficient waste segregation, the hall is becoming a model of ecological functionality,” Prof. Ewa Krogulec, the UW Vic…

One of our tasks for the future is to think about how to remain innovative and how to meet the expectations of our environment in an appropriate way. In doing so, it is worth paying attention to, among other things, the aspect of using artificial intelligence,” Prof. Sambor Grucza, the Vice-Rector for Cooperation and Human Resources, said. During the General Assembly, the Rector of th…

4EU+ Annual Meeting in Milan
06-11-2023…eeting was held in 2019 at Sorbonne University, and the second – in an online formula – was organised by Charles University. The 2021 Annual Meeting was hosted by Heidelberg University. Last year, the representatives of partner universities met at the University of Copenhagen. Milan discussions This year’s 4EU+ Annual Meeting took place on 7th-9th November at the University of Milan. Participants were discussing their past activities and making…

A way to reduce carbone dioxide
20-10-2023…cientific research proves that metallic copper remains the best electrocatalyst. However, its efficiency is limited. Scientists are looking for other solutions that enable cheaper and more green chemical reactions. A team of researchers from the University of Warsaw and the California Institute of Technology have proposed to use two-dimensional metal–organic frameworks in this regard. The frameworks are the materials formed from metal ions or in…

It is important that the world is introduced by means of numerous neologisms, which Dukaj does not always explain,” Prof. Kordos says, and adds, “This is particularly important to me, as these terms come from the Greek language.” The author plays with words, which on the one hand enchants and delights the reader but, on the other, produces a surprisi…

UW researchers’ paper in “Nature Photonics”
06-10-2023…ories are largely based on optical photons. Similarly to the quantum network adapter, the interconnection between the two types of devices requires an interface that can efficiently work both in microwave and optical domain. Rydberg atoms are being presented here as the solution. Currently, there is ongoing research in the (QOT) Centre for Quantum Optical Technologies, as well as in scientific institutes all over the world, on how to employ quan…

The H.E.S.S. team has detected the highest energy gamma rays ever from a pulsar in collaboration with other scientists working at the H.E.S.S. observatory in Namibia. The energy of these gamma rays clocked in at 20 teraelectronvolts, or about ten trillion…

Can marks received by students at other universities be recognised at the UW? There is such a possibility. The decision is made by vice-deans for students affairs or heads of studies. To recognise passed courses from other universities, one needs to file an application….
