Signs of life in Venus' atmosphere?
18.09.2020
On 14 September information about the discovery of possible signs of life on Venus hit the news headlines around the world, following the publication of the results of a study by an international research team in the prestigious journal Nature Astronomy. In fact, at the moment the scientists are cautious about making any specific conclusions, as they haven’t found any microorganisms, but a chemical compound known as phosphine. What is significant is that according to our current knowledge, its formation on Venus wouldn’t be possible without biological processes.

A whole new level of X-ray imaging
10.09.2020
To study microscopic samples, scientists often employ computer tomography, which relies on X-rays and polycapillary optics. However, this can sometimes cause problems: to create a 3D model of an object, one has to rotate it and scan its surface. Two researchers from the JU Institute of Physics and the JU SOLARIS synchrotron, Katarzyna M. Sowa and Prof. Paweł Korecki, aim to facilitate this process by devising an unconventional imaging technique.

New imaging technique will help to diagnose cancer
08.09.2020
Research conducted by a group of scientists including Dr Tomasz Wróbel from the National Synchrotron Radiation Centre SOLARIS (Jagiellonian University) contributed to the improvement of imaging methods by creating a new technique, known as the confocal quantitative phase imaging. The studies leading to the development of this method have been described in the article published in Optica journal.
