After expanding to its peak size about 11 billion years from now, the universe will begin to contract – snapping back like a rubber band to a single point at the end, according to a Cornell physicist.
Tracking heart and lung health without wires or electrodes could be a game-changer for home care, assisted living or for patients who resist traditional wearables.
Using a Cornell-built instrument and Cornell-built high-speed detector, a team of researchers captured atomically thin materials responding to light with a dynamic twisting motion.
A federal stop-work order has threatened the progress a Weill Cornell Medicine researcher has made in understanding a lethal and treatment-resistant form of prostate cancer.
Astronomers have generated the first three-dimensional map of a planet orbiting another star, revealing an atmosphere with distinct temperature zones – one so scorching that it breaks down water vapor, a team co-led by a Cornell expert reports in new research.
Newly published digital collections at Cornell University Library explore areas of Cornell history. Freely accessible online, the three new collections were digitized from materials held in Cornell University Library’s Rare and Manuscript Collections.
A new study revealed how a deadly form of pancreatic cancer enters the bloodstream, solving a long-standing mystery of how the disease spreads and identifying a promising target for therapy.
A Cornell researcher and collaborators have developed a machine-learning model that encapsulates and quantifies the valuable intuition of human experts in the quest to discover new quantum materials.
Cornell researchers have built a programmable optical chip that can change the color of light by merging photons, without requiring a new chip for new colors – technology that could potentially be used for classical and quantum communications networks.
