After more than one year of repairs, the Large Hadron Collider in Switzerland is back on track to create high-energy particle collisions and yield extraordinary insights into the nature of the physical universe. Eight UC Irvine scientists are involved.
With $160,000 from the National Science Foundation, Barrett and colleagues are combing through, scanning and preserving documents they hope will shed light on how to understand measurement as a consistent physical process in quantum mechanics – one of physics’ most debated puzzles that Everett believed he had solved as a graduate student.
Michael Dennin, UC Irvine physics & astronomy professor, will discuss the science behind superheroes 8-9 a.m. Tuesday, May 19, at the University Club. A complimentary breakfast will begin at 7:30 a.m.
UC Irvine physics & astronomy postdoctoral researchers Misty Bentz and Shelley Wright have received prestigious 3-year Hubble research fellowships from…
Peter Taborek uses high-speed video to capture the motion of drops and bubbles coming apart. Knowing the details of this “pinch-off” process is important when designing inkjet printers and also is useful in biotechnology when fluid is used on microchips, as well as for applications in cosmetics, food and structural materials industries.
Steven White, UC Irvine physics and astronomy professor, has been honored by the journal Physical Review Letters, which named his…
The medical physics residency program in UC Irvine’s Department of Radiation Oncology was recently accredited by the Commission on Accreditation…
UC Irvine professors Clare Yu and her collaborator, Steven Gross, have received about $1.5 million over five years from the…
UC Office of the President-funded project involves 5 UC campuses and 2 national labs
Herdeline Ardoña, a UC Irvine assistant professor of chemical and biomolecular engineering, has been selected as one of the 2025 Talented 12 by Chemical & Engineering News, a publication of the American Chemical Society. This annual list recognizes early career researchers who are rising stars in chemistry, selected for their innovative work and growing impact […]
