A Chalmers-led team of astronomers have used the Alma telescope to make the surprising discovery of a jet of cool, dense gas in the centre of a galaxy located 70 million light years from Earth. The jet, with its unusual, swirling structure, gives new clues to a long-standing astronomical mystery – how supermassive black holes grow.
Sweden’s biggest contribution yet to the world’s biggest radio telescope, the Square Kilometre Array (SKA), has passed a major milestone. An advanced – and beautiful – feed horn developed at Chalmers University of Technology, has been delivered for testing in Canada.
Pedro Pagalday went to Ghana to do his master's thesis in Biomedical Engineering. He spent six months with thorough research and development of a tool to support the care of pregnant women.
The EU is investing over EUR 3 million in innovative aero-engine technologies in the three-year "Ultimate" project, short for "Ultra Low emission Technology Innovations for Mid-century Aircraft Turbine Engines". The project targets radical concepts for new aero engines, in line with the EU’s long-term emissions reduction target for 2050. The project is being presented at a conference in South...
Researchers at Chalmers University of Technology are finding inspiration in evolution’s biological counterparts in the development of a driverless truck. The first public demonstration of the vehicle will take place on a Dutch motorway on 28 May. That’s when the truck will take part in a competition for autonomous vehicles, within the framework of an EU project called the Grand Cooperative...
Particle physicists around the world are currently on the edge of their seats awaiting information about the traces of a brand new particle that were found during the latest run of the Large Hadron Collider particle accelerator at CERN. One of these physicists is Christoffer Petersson at Chalmers University of Technology. In an article recently published in the journal, Physical Review Letters...
At Chalmers University of Technology you’ll learn to think independently, and to meet future challenges with the help of engineering methods. We emphasise your creativity and believe in the necessity of free thinking, so that you can be sure that you are able to test your own ideas for real.
IT++ is today one of the most popular libraries of functions and is widely used by the industry and academia. It all started in 1990’s by three PhD students in information theory at Chalmers University of Technology.
