Velkomin / Welcome 👋
Síðan er á ensku en hægt er að lesa aðeins um Skuggsjá hér / We work on experiments probing the early universe, the nature of dark matter, and the birth of the first stars. From here you can take a quick tour of our efforts, read about our projects, or get in touch.
Optics and Telescopes
A key aspect of our research at the University of Iceland and Stockholm University focuses on optics design, characterization, and technology development for telescopes operating at millimetre wavelengths and the development of novel metamaterial resonators.
Funding Acknowledgment
Our group efforts are funded by the European Research Council, the Icelandic Reseach Fund, the Icelandic Infrastructure Fund, and the Knut and Allice Wallenberg Foundation. We are truly thankful for this support!
Latest News
Six lab members attended SPIE Astronomical Telescope and Instrumentation that took place in Copenhagen in early July. Our group members presented six posters at the conference.
Members of the research group have been working on a paper the describes the development of microwave absorbers. The paper, led by Dr. Gaganpreet Singh, combines aspects of material design, measurement, and state-of-the art simulations run on High Performance Computing resources availabe to the group through Stockholm University. The paper was published in Applied Optics as Editor’s pick and is available on the arXiv as well.
