Cornell astronomers are deploying a new instrument that grants them, for the first time, a better view of the universe’s earliest galaxies, which can’t be observed individually with ground- or space-based telescopes.
Researchers found entropy can help bind certain pairs of molecules faster and more robustly – an approach that could have broad applications in drug development and forming new materials.
Nobel Laureate John M. Martinis will speak about his research in quantum mechanics from 5-6 p.m. April 8 in the Rhodes-Rawlings Auditorium, Room KG70 in Klarman Hall.
Since the early days of modern cosmic exploration, Cornell scientists have led the way, from guiding rovers through the red dust of Mars to searching for other life in the universe; and from modeling exotic stars to detecting the faint ripples of gravitational waves.
Researchers created a computational model that shows the effect of insects’ morphology on stabilizing their flight, which could provide a blueprint for designing flapping-wing robots.
Lawrence Gibbons, professor of physics in the College of Arts and Sciences, is among the researchers awarded the prestigious physics prize for his muon g-2 collaborations.
An autonomous artificial intelligence platform developed at Cornell streamlines materials research by quickly identifying key features in a microscopy image.
Assistant professor Greg Falco testified before the congressional U.S.-China Economic and Security Review Commission about how low-level data can be leveraged for tactical advantage.
Beckie Robertson ’82, a venture capital leader in biotechnology, received the Cornell Duffield Engineering Distinguished Alumni Award on April 23 in recognition of a career defined by innovation in health care and service to Cornell.
