William Matthaeus, the Martin A. Pomerantz Chair of Physics and Astronomy at the University of Delaware, has won UD’s highest faculty honor — the Francis Alison Award — in recognition of his ...

Unprecedented ocean warming breaks records. Scientists warn of accelerating climate change and the consequences for our ...

Scientists have developed a method for generating fast, bright proton beams using a high-repetition-rate laser-plasma ...

Scientists discover low-mass microquasars can accelerate cosmic rays, reshaping theories on high-energy particle origins.

Researchers found for the first time evidence that even microquasars containing a low-mass star are efficient particle accelerators, which leads to a significant impact on the interpretation of the ...

This three-year programme offers a variant of the advanced study offered in the Physics BSc. You will develop specialised knowledge of the theoretical structure of the core topics in physics. The ...

For the case when L/H = 0.6, where the same seismic yield acceleration is obtained using both the ultimate ... there are still some limitations. For example, the simplification of model assumptions ...

Achieving practical interstellar travel requires overcoming the immense challenge of reaching extraordinary velocities. To send a spacecraft, weighing roughly 1,000 kilograms, to a neighboring star ...

Our physics expert picks his top-five equations, plus a scheme to supply US power needs with a bucket of baseballs. Thanks, ...

New research suggests that dark energy isn't needed to explain the acceleration in the expansion of the universe — instead suggesting giant voids in space are creating an illusion. When you ...

They found that their model's prediction matched what the Parker Solar Probe reported: particle acceleration and escape across a range of energy levels. The probe was very close to the sun—for ...
