The School of Physics and Engineering Physics is the largest joint research and educational unit for physics in Sweden. This is largely due to the fact that most of the departments are shared by Chalmers University of Technology and G teborg University . The most extensive research is conducted in condensed matter physics and spans several areas with the emphasis on material science.
Several groups work with phenomena on surfaces.
In addition, there are activities in physical resource theory, radiation physics and reactor physics. Research activities are thus very extensive and include both theoretical and experimental projects of both a basic and an applied nature. The high quality of the research has been confirmed in several evaluations.
