• Physics 16, 116
Jorge Cham, aka PHD Comics, illustrates how researchers have turned our Galaxy into a giant antenna for catching gravitational waves, spotting for the first time a background hum of such waves.
A proposed model unites quantum theory with classical gravity by assuming that states evolve in a probabilistic way, like a game of chance. Read More »
An archaeology-focused sabbatical prompted semiconductor physicist Kristin Poduska to ask questions about how the environment impacts the chemical and structural properties of natural materials. Read More »
