A very short history of my life (so far):
Married with Lena since 1990, two kids Matilda (-91) and Ludvig (-93).

  • MSc in Materials physics 1993 from Uppsala University.
  • PHd in physics 1999 from Uppsala University.
    • Thesis title "Internal Magnetic Properties in Rare Earth Metals and Compounds".
    • The research method was muon spin rotation/relaxatin techniques.
  • From 2000 working as senior lecturer at Mälardalen University
