Sorte huller AF JENS HJORTH Indledning For en fysiker er et sort hul et objekt - et område i ‘rumtiden’ - så kompakt og tungt, at tyngdeaccelera- tionen omkring det er så stærk, at ingen partikler, intet lys og ingen information kan undslippe det. Etymo- logisk menes begrebet at stamme fra 1960’erne i en analogi til »Black Hole of Calcutta«, et meget lille

Plan(t)er for fremtiden AF BARBARA ANN HALKIER Introduktion Planter er livsnødvendige for mennesker. Takket være fotosyntesen leverer de ilt, mad, byggematerialer, tøj og medicin til os, og skovene fungerer som kulstof- lagre på planeten. Planter er derfor også en vigtig komponent til løsning af fremtidens udfordringer. I dette kapitel vil jeg viderebringe min fas

Hjertets flimren AF SØREN-PETER FUCHS OLESEN Vores hjerte slår cirka 100.000 gange dagligt, uden at vi mærker det. Et enkelt fejlslag kan have meget alvor- lige konsekvenser, men der er heldigvis mange biolo- giske sikkerhedsmekanismer, som sørger for, at denne stabile pumpe normalt kører uforstyrret dag og nat gennem et langt liv. Det er således et af de helt cent

FIGUR i. Kristian Zahrtmann: Leonora Christina forlader fængslet, 1874. Det er bemærkelsesværdigt, at Zahrtmann har valgt at fremstille den netop løsladte med en bog i hånden, et umiskendeligt udtryk for hendes litterære status. Med sine ekspressive malerier af Leonora Christina har Zahrtmann haft umådelig indflydelse på den alminde- lige opfattelse af hendes kara
