About 40 percent of the oil and gas wells in parts of the Marcellus shale region will likely leak methane, says a Cornell-led research team that examined well records in Pennsylvania.
Cornell Tech's Open Studio, at which prospective graduates present ideas for apps, start-up businesses and other inventions, attracted 500 people May 20 in Manhattan.
A Cornell-led team of researchers has displayed the ability to alter superconductor strontium ruthenate's electrical properties through strain, or 'stretching', of a thin film of the material.
Years before COVID-19 turned into a global pandemic, biomolecular engineer Susan Daniel was already looking for ways to defeat it. Now she’s expanding her coronavirus studies, blending engineering with virology and data science.
A group of Cornell physicists led by Michael Niemack has joined a group that will use two new telescopes to measure the Cosmic Microwave Background, the universe's earliest measurable light.
With enough warmth and admiration to fill an expanding universe, colleagues, family and friends of Joe Burns, dedicated a brand-new office – the Joseph Burns Faculty Office – in the renovated Upson Hall.
For the ever-shrinking transistor, there may be a new game in town. Cornell researchers have demonstrated promising electronic performance from a semiconducting compound called molybdenum sulfide.
Cornell physicists have identified the physical mechanisms behind long-range protein attractions, which are set off by changes in cellular membranes. (Aug. 29, 2012)
By measuring with exquisite precision the tiny wobbles of Saturn's moon Enceladus, Cornell researchers have learned that a global ocean lies beneath the moon's thick icy crust.
