New research from a team of scientists led by Cornell is transforming how researchers understand one of the atmosphere’s most abundant and least understood constituents: mineral dust.
The Cornell High Energy Synchrotron Source (CHESS) will host its annual High Energy X-ray Techniques (HEXT) School next week, bringing graduate students and early-career researchers together for an intensive introduction to synchrotron science and high-energy x-ray research methods.
Cornell engineers have developed a robotic collective that behaves less like a machine and more like a material that flows, reshapes and adapts to its environment without centralized control.
Presenters at the workshop explained how Cornell's Fred Young Submillimeter Telescope (FYST) promises a leap forward in our understanding of galaxy, star and planetary formation processes.
