Oesophageal cancer is a very serious form of cancer that, if not fatal, requires extensive surgery. A new study from Karolinska Institutet shows that when serious complications arise after surgery for oesophageal cancer, many patients suffer other health problems, such as breathlessness, fatigue, insomnia and eating problems, for five years afterwards.

Reducing energy loss can greatly increase the yield of solar cells. Before the incoming sunlight can generate electricity, a large part of the energy is lost in heating up the solar cell. Now researchers from Technology Foundation STW, NanoNextNL, the University of Amsterdam and TU Delft have gained experimental insights into a quantum process in silicon nanocrystals by which excess light energy is transferred to adjacent nanocrystals, thereby avoiding energy losses to heat.

In chemical industry, heterogeneous catalysis is of crucial importance to the manufacture of basic or fine chemicals, in catalytic converters of exhaust gas, or for the chemical storage of solar energy. Scientists of Karlsruhe Institute of Technology and Ruhr-Universität Bochum have developed a new infrared spectroscopy method in order to study processes at surfaces of oxides used as catalysts.
