Cornell physicists can now control with precision how the particles in viscous liquids swirl, twirl and whirl. Think of adding cream to coffee - and managing the cream stream.
Julius Lucks, assistant professor of chemical and biomolecular engineering, and Marco Seandel, assistant professor of cell and developmental biology in surgery at Weill Cornell Medical College, are NIH "New Innovators."
At the Sept. 10 Faculty Senate meeting, the Climate Neutrality Acceleration Working Group presented its proposal to change the university’s climate neutrality target date to 2035 from 2050.
Undergraduates from across the country are spending several weeks at Cornell this summer researching topics in accelerator physics or X-ray science thanks to two programs funded by the National Science Foundation.
An experiment in partnership with Con Edison this summer has shown that consumers might be willing to back off on their demand for electricity if there’s a game of chance involved.
Cornell Tech and the College of Engineering have announced a new Master of Engineering degree in Operations Research and Information Engineering based at the tech campus in New York City.
The NSF has awarded Cornell $2.7 million to acquire a cryogenic, aberration-corrected scanning transmission electron microscope. The microscope could revolutionize research in biology, physics and materials science
Researchers have found that irradiation of material creates nanometer-sized defects that trap swirling eddies in the flow of electrons, keeping them out of the way so more current can flow through superconductors.
Immobilizing negatively charged ions in the polymer-like separators of rechargeable lithium batteries is shown to result in stable electrodeposition, even at relatively high current densities.
Jamol Pender, assistant professor in Cornell’s School of Operations Research and Information Engineering, collaborated with Cornell colleagues to determine how we choose which line to wait in.
