An AAPM team has received a $250,000 Eugene Washington PCORI Engagement Award from the Patient-Centered Outcomes Research Institute to fund a project titled “Radiation risk in medicine: Identifying and enabling patient-provider shared decision-making.”
Florida State University has named acclaimed researcher and industry leader Kathleen Amm as the new director of the National High Magnetic Field Laboratory (National MagLab), the largest and highest-powered magnet laboratory in the world and the only facility of its kind in the United States.
New research from The Grainger College of Engineering suggests that observing how heat flows in conjunction with electricity can give important insights into battery chemistry.
PPPL’s important work seeding the field of plasma physics was evident from the list of first authors in Physics of Plasmas 2023 Early Career Collection, which included four people from the Lab: Ben Isreali, Stephen Majeski, Ian Ochs and Willca Villafana.

Like protons and neutrons, Lambda particles consist of three quarks bound together by gluons. But unlike protons and neutrons, which contain a mixture of up and down quarks, Lambdas also contain a strange quark.
The tantalum isotope, Ta-180m, is found naturally in a long-lived excited state. However, the radioactive decay of this excited state in Ta-180m has never been observed.
Researchers at the U.S. Department of Energy’s Argonne National Laboratory have created a new material that uses “redox gating” to control the movement of electrons in and out of a semiconducting material.
Researchers at the U.S. Department of Energy’s Argonne National Laboratory have tested the performance of a new device that boosts particle signals.
Theoretical models can fill the gaps in experimental physics, but using a single imperfect theoretical model can be misleading. To improve the quality of predictions, researchers created a machine learning method that combines the results of several imperfect models.
Our Senior Fellow Professor Enge Wang recently visited HKIAS between 4 March to 8 March 2024 and participated in academic exchanges at City University of Hong Kong (CityUHK).
Neutron star mergers are a treasure trove for new physics signals, with implications for determining the true nature of dark matter, according to research from physicist Bhupal Dev at Washington University in St. Louis.
Early in Hertz Fellow Alex Siegenfeld’s PhD program, he found himself unmotivated by his research and knew something had to change. His turning point overlapped with the 2016 Hertz Summer Workshop, where he discussed his concerns with other fellows.
Researchers flip the switch at the nanoscale by applying light to induce bonding for single-molecule device switching.
Hertz Fellow Katelin Schutz thinks existing experimental data across many fields of physics and cosmology can be re-analyzed through a “dark matter lens.”
Stimulated Raman scattering is a powerful spectroscopic technique that unveils molecular vibrational and rotational information, providing invaluable insights into the composition and dynamics of diverse materials. A novel approach for stimulated Raman scattering spectroscopy has been introduced, utilizing offset-phase controlled femtosecond-pulse bursts. This innovative technique not only achieves very high spectral resolution but also enables high-speed spectral acquisition. By broadening the applications of stimulated Raman scattering, it represents a noteworthy advancement in spectroscopic capabilities.
From televisions to X-ray machines, many modern technologies are enabled by electrons that have been juiced up by a particle accelerator. Now, Jefferson Lab has teamed up with General Atomics and other partners to unlock even more applications. The team has designed, built and successfully tested a prototype of a key component of particle accelerators that could enable novel industrial applications of accelerators.
Scientists are a step closer to unravelling the mysterious forces of the universe after working out how to measure gravity on a microscopic level.
