UL: Our publications

Biotechnologists from the University of Wrocław along with researchers from the Wrocław University of Environmental and Life Sciences and the Wrocław University of Science and Technology have brewed some beer… for scientific purposes, of course.

Can keeping a healthy diet lead to a pathology? How social media can influence nutrition habits and what increases the risk of orthorexia? We are discussing the issue with prof. dr hab. Anna Brytek-Matera, a specialist in the field of orthorexia nervosa and eating disorders, the author of the first scientific monograph about orthorexia nervosa in the world, Orthorexia Nervosa: Current Understanding and Perspectives, published by Cambridge University Press.

An article titled ‘Enhancing Crossflow Dynamics through the Gas Injection from Multiple Cylinders’ has been published in the prestigious International Journal of Heat and Mass Transfer by University of Wrocław physicists: dr Sahrish Batool Naqvi and dr hab. Maciej Matyka, prof. UWr, along with Sadia Siddiqa (University of Ulsan, Republic of Korea), Rama S. R. Gorla (Air Force Institute of Technology, Wright Patterson Air Force Base, Dayton, USA) and Md. Mamun Molla (North South University, Dhaka, Bangladesh)

A quiet homemaker, occasionally forced to wrestle without any rules. An avid vegetarian, for which he paid the ultimate price. An object of worship whose smell could be smelled from miles away. We talk about the Pleistocene cave bear inhabiting the Bear Cave in Kletno – because it is the bear in question – with dr hab. Adrian Marciszak, prof. UWr.

How did Polish inventors contribute to Allied success during World War II? Was Polish poetry of interest to American workers of Polish descent and why did “impossible names” hinder the integration of Poles in the United States? – About this and many other interesting questions concerning the Polish American community, we talk with prof. dr. hab. Joanna Wojdon, author of Polish American History after 1939, published by Routledge.

Space-time symmetries are a key component of fundamental physical theories, such as classical and quantum electrodynamics, or general relativity theory (classical gravitational field theory). The most fundamental of these are described by the Lorentz group (for a non-zero cosmological constant this generalises to the de Sitter or anti-de Sitter group), preserving the value of the speed of light c. On the other hand, if we consider the so-called Galilean limit, in which c goes to infinity, we reduce the theory in question to classical Newtonian physics, where time is absolute.

While conducting research in the Lviv archive, dr Magdalena Gibiec comes across two unusually labeled folders. Intrigued, she borrows them, not yet knowing that this decision will completely change the course of her research and result in a publication by the prestigious academic publisher Routledge.
