Since 1940, he has become a professor in theoretical electromagnetic theory and electrical measurements at KTH.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">During his career, Alfv\u00e9n made several fundamental theoretical discoveries. He is best known for having founded and developed the concept of magnetohydrodynamics (MHD), also known as Alfv\u00e9n waves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1168\" height=\"876\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.kth.se\/blogs\/studentblog\/files\/2022\/10\/IMG_4007-2.jpg?resize=1168%2C876&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-7408\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.kth.se\/blogs\/studentblog\/files\/2022\/10\/IMG_4007-2.jpg?resize=1168%2C876&amp;ssl=1 1168w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.kth.se\/blogs\/studentblog\/files\/2022\/10\/IMG_4007-2.jpg?resize=748%2C561&amp;ssl=1 748w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.kth.se\/blogs\/studentblog\/files\/2022\/10\/IMG_4007-2.jpg?resize=768%2C576&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.kth.se\/blogs\/studentblog\/files\/2022\/10\/IMG_4007-2.jpg?w=1200&amp;ssl=1 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><figcaption>Interactive zone for thoughts and comments<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Apart from the introduction slideshow and panels, books and publications by Alfv\u00e9n, original items that are connected to his writing and research, as well as his childhood objects, are also being displayed in the exhibition.
