Quantum computing represents a fundamentally new computational paradigm, capable of addressing problems that are intractable for classical computers.

Majorana fermions in superconductors are the subgap quasiparticle excitations that are their own antiparticles.

The work presented in this thesis is based on ALMA surveys of protoplanetary disks in three star-forming regions: Lupus, OMC-2, and NGC 2024.

This thesis introduces a relational interaction model and a practical tool for describing, visualising and generating interactive dialogues.

To address the fundamental questions of how life on Earth emerged and how common life may be in the Universe, it is crucial to know the chemical composition of the planet-forming material.

Multiple stars, that is two or more stars composing a gravitationally bound system, are common in the universe.

Environmental challenges such as plastic pollution and biodiversity loss require extensive monitoring. Citizen science, in which members of the public participate in scientific research, has therefore become an important approach in environmental science.

Protoplanetary disks are the gas and dust environments where planetary systems form around young stars. Using observations from the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) this thesis analyses the gaseous molecular reservoir, using multiple tracers to resolve the 3D structure of protoplanetary…

Microglia support the central and peripheral nervous system by forming the first line of defense against hazardous events. Microglia are increasingly acknowledged as critical players in neurodegenerative diseases, highlighting them as potential therapeutic targets.

Did the Jochids leave their mark on the Grand Duchy, taking into account that the Lithuanian state was one of the main successor states of the Great Horde in the 16thCentury?

Solar energy is used by photosynthetic organisms to drive energy required cellular processes. Is absorbed by two groups of pigments, located in the LHCs.

De onderzoeksgroep Terrorism and Political Violence van de Universiteit Leiden bestudeert de oorzaken van radicalisering, de tactieken van extremistische groeperingen, en de effectiviteit van anti-terrorismebeleid. We onderzoeken ook de rol van media en de invloed van postkoloniale erfenissen in de…

DNA carries various forms of information. Out of these forms of information the most well-known is classical genetic information.

In times of hardships or crisis, local people know how to deal with it using their resourcefulness. Although efforts are sometimes made by the government to help them, they are fully aware that community support is at least equally important.

Transplantation of labial salivary glands to the eyelids for patients with dry eye appears to give excellent results clinically.

This thesis focuses on protoplanetary disks: flattened structures of gas and dust around young stars in which planets are expected to form and grow.

This thesis describes the design, characterization and application of dextran based crosslinked network.

Metal complexes and 2D materials like graphene were combined to produce structures that can function as sensors.

During embryonic growth, cells proliferate, differentiate, and collectively migrate to form different tissues at the right position and time in the body.

Until the 1990s, the only known planets were those in our Solar System. Three decades later, several thousand exoplanets have been discovered orbiting stars other than the Sun, and substantial efforts have been made to explore these strange new worlds through spectroscopic analyses of their atmosphe…
