A workshop is organized at St John's College, Oxford, on September 23-24. The workshop aims to bring together medievalists of all disciplines to discuss the research and teaching of ‘difficult’ or ‘taboo’ topics. The organizers welcome applications from scholars working in any field that demands sensitivity…

Nowadays, it is well known that hydrogen and helium (and small traces of lithium and beryllium) were created shortly after the Big Bang, while the heavier elements are created in the cores of stars at different evolutionary stages. When these stars explode as supernovae, they expel metals synthesised…

Ruim 1200 leerlingen uit groep 7 van basisscholen in Leiden en Den Haag kregen op de verjaardag van de universiteit les van een echte professor.

Every organisms in the tree of life faces the same challenge: the length of its DNA exceeds the volume of the cell it needs to fit in. Several strategies have evolved to solve this problem, one of them being the expression of proteins that bind and organize the DNA.

Forming at the nodes of the Cosmic Web and growing hierarchically via mass accretion, galaxy clusters are the largest virialized halos in our universe, composed of dark matter (DM; ≥85%), ionized hot plasma in the intracluster medium (ICM; ≥10-15%), and galaxies (≥1-5%).

The four possible segments A, T, C and G that link together to form DNA molecules, and with their ordering encode genetic information, are not only different in name, but also in their physical and chemical properties.

In this thesis we study the landscape of gravitational models which modify GR by introducing an additional scalar degree of freedom (d.o.f.) to source Cosmic Acceleration.

Wetlands provide many ecosystem goods and services which include fish production. The sustainability of small-scale fisheries (SSF) has received considerable attention in recent years because fish is one of the major sources of animal protein to a considerable fraction of the global population which…

This thesis discusses the physical and chemical processes than influence the composition of forming planets.

One of the key discoveries in exoplanet research over the past decade is the abundance of small planets in our Milky Way. Despite their high numbers, our understanding of their atmospheres remains limited, and it is unknown if they possess atmospheres at all.

A New Technology-Based Firm (NTBF) is a significant enabler of job creation and a driver of the economy through stimulating innovation.

Op 17 november 2021 verdedigde Cyril-Igor Grigorieff het proefschrift 'The Regime for International Air Carrier Liability'. Het promotieonderzoek is begeleid door prof.dr. P. Mendes de Leon en prof.dr. V. Correia (University Paris Saclay).

Organic molecules in interstellar space are important as they influence the structure of galaxies and star formations. Studying catalytic processes in space allows us to understand how molecular species are formed and chemically evolved in the interstellar medium and solar system objects.

Circumstellar discs are the reservoirs of gas and dust that surround young stars and have the potential to become planetary systems.

This thesis investigates how galaxies form and what diversifies the evolutionary histories of galaxies.

Galaxy intrinsic alignments induce a major astrophysical contamination to weak gravitational lensing measurements and need to be modelled and mitigated when extracting cosmological information from such measurements.
