Jan. 3, 2025 — Scientists recently discovered that the giant 'conveyer belt' currents that push star-forged material out of our galaxy and pull it back in can also transport carbon atoms. That ...

Dec. 20, 2024 — Researchers have made a meaningful advance in the simulation of molecular electron transfer -- a fundamental process underpinning countless physical, ... First Demonstration of ...

Potential themes include, but are not limited to, the following: • Applications of fractional differential equations in astrophysics and space science • Applications of fractional differential ...

NASA heliophysics studies the magnetosphere to better understand its role in our space environment. Such research helps unravel the fundamental physics of space, which is dominated by complex ...

Physics is the search for and application of rules that can help us understand and predict the world around us. Central to physics are ideas such as energy, mass, particles and waves. Physics ...

What Is a Light-Year? A light-year is the distance light travels in one year. Light moves incredibly fast — about 186,000 miles (300,000 kilometers) per second, covering 5.88 trillion miles (9.46 ...

Condensed-matter physics is the study of substances in their solid state. This includes the investigation of both crystalline solids in which the atoms are positioned on a repeating three ...

Abstract: Maxwell's equations are replaced by a set of finite difference equations. It is shown that if one chooses the field points appropriately, the set of finite difference equations is applicable ...

The department welcomes inquiries from interested students. For more information about the department’s undergraduate programs, please contact the undergraduate faculty advisor, Dr. Lisa Koerner, at ...

I find myself looking at everything as systems of equations – this person wants this, this thing needs to go there, we need money to do that thing – and thinking about how to put them together. We do ...

Of all the unanswered questions in modern science, perhaps the most talked about is whether we are alone in the universe. A new paper looks at another way we might be able to detect advanced ...

The Astros have traded Grae Kessinger to the Arizona Diamondbacks for right-handed pitching prospect Matthew Linskey, sources tell @Ken_Rosenthal and me.
