The efficiency of quantum computers, sensors and other applications often relies on the properties of electrons, including how they are spinning. One of the most accurate systems for high performance ...

A new method improves the extraction and separation of rare earth elements—a group of 17 elements critical for technologies such as smart phones and electric car batteries—from unconventional sources.

The Eberly College of Science is committed to supporting our researchers in translating their research for society. Translation is an early part of technology transfer where scientific discoveries are ...

UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa. — By combining forefront X-ray observations with state-of-the-art supercomputer simulations of the buildup of galaxies over cosmic history, researchers have provided the best ...

The motion of particles in a classical gas is famously chaotic. A simple and common consequence of this chaos is that an enclosed gas equilibrates to a single temperature, which is why letting cold ...

Thomas Building is home to the Eberly College of Science Dean's Office and Department of Statistics. It also houses members of the Forensic Science program, as well as general purpose classrooms and ...

The collision and merger of two neutron stars — the incredibly dense remnants of collapsed stars — are some of the most energetic events in the universe, producing a variety of signals that can be ...

A team led by Sarah Pfaff, postdoctoral scholar in biology, developed a method to isolate plant cells and reprogram them into other cell types, similar to the way stem cells differentiate into ...
