Integrated Activities for the High Energy Astrophysics Domain
High-energy astrophysics is the study of the most energetic and extreme processes in the universe, processes that are impossible to replicate in experiments here on Earth. These processes are associated with objects like exploding stars and supermassive black holes, and their understanding not only helps us answer fundamental questions about the origin and evolution of our cosmos but also fosters technological developments in other areas. Further, it prepares us to optimise space exploration expeditions for maximum impact. Teamwork is necessary for success and the EU-funded AHEAD2020 project is team building to achieve this. A key focus is integration of national efforts while enhancing foc…
Psychology of organizational behavior
Research in Work Psychology, Organizations, and Human Resources has experienced significant development in recent decades, addressing challenges of important scientific and practical/professional significance. This area of psychosocial research covers a wide range of issues and themes. The research group "Organizational Behavioral Psychology," with a long history of investigation, focuses its research on the study of four basic aspects of this area of scientific research. Firstly, it addresses the study of two fundamental components for individuals and organizations: job well-being in its different facets and effective performance that contributes to organizational results. Secondly, and as…
Chemistry and technology of polymers and polymer materials
Our research covers the following main areas: (1) the design, synthesis and characterization of homogeneous and supported on inorganic carriers catalysts for coordination polymerization, (2) study of alkylaluminium ionic liquids, determination of physical properties and application as a medium of polymerization reaction, (3) evaluation of synthesized catalysts in olefin (co)polymerization, ethylene-norbornene copolymerization and cyclic esters polymerization, (4) modification of polyethylene by copolymerization of ethylene with higher olefins, polar monomers and other comonomers, (5) preparation and characterization of (nano)composites based on polymers and biopolymers with inorganic and or…
Centre for Coastal Research
CCR focuses on the ecology and evolution of the biota in the marine coastal zone within a broad societal context. At CCR a number of approaches are being utilized to map the diversity and natural cycles of the marine biota. This knowledge then forms the basis for understanding how these ecosystems are responding to challenges related to human activities. Researchers at CCR aim to characterize coastal ecosystems on all trophic levels, including a broad range of species. Cod, wrasse, lobster, trout, salmon, eel, bacteria, plankton, sea grass, kelps and oysters are some of the many organisms being studied.
