- A new advancement in theoretical physics could, one day, help engineers develop new kinds of computer chips that might store information for long periods of time in very small objects.
- Renovations to the Physics Help Room were recently completed providing a revamped space for students to work together, study and get help with physics courses.
- Congratulations to the Fall 2023 winners of the Student and Postdoc Awards for Teaching and Service!Teaching AwardsRoman Marcarelli: For outstanding contributions to the Physics 2010 and 2020 teaching teams both in labs and in the helproom, over
- In an exciting turn for physics research, four major foundations have announced a collaborative funding effort for 11 pioneering experiments. The Gordon and Betty Moore Foundation, the Simons Foundation, the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation and the John Templeton Foundation have come together, committing a total of $30 million.
- Physics graduate student Nicholas Jenkins has been awarded the prestigious 2024 Nick Cobb Memorial Scholarship from SPIE, the international society for optics and photonics.
- A new laser-based technique can create images of structures too tiny to view with traditional microscopes, and without damaging them. The approach could help scientists inspect nanoelectronics, including the semiconductors in computer chips.
