Energy efficiency in physics is not measured the way most people think about it. Instead of asking how much heat a process ...

Now, Takahito Iida at the University of Osaka has proposed a new energy-harvesting technology that uses gyroscopic flywheel system that can be tuned to absorb energy efficiently over a broad range of ...

Explore work and energy concepts with a real-world example: a crashing car analysis! In this physics tutorial, we break down kinetic energy, work done, and energy transfer during a collision. Using ...

Particle and high energy physics is dedicated to unravelling the fundamental constituents of matter and the forces governing their interactions. This field encompasses experimental efforts at the ...

Despite being riddled with impurities and defects, solution-processed lead-halide perovskites are surprisingly efficient at ...

CMU earned $4.981 million in funding from the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) following a competitive peer review process. The federal government has awarded nearly $5 million to Carnegie Mellon ...

Roland Winston, SB’56, SM’57, PhD’63—a pioneer in solar energy, engineering, and physics—died Feb. 8 at his home in California. He was 88. Winston was a University of Chicago professor in the ...

The study shows that in quantum devices, reading a clock consumes far more energy than running it. This insight will help ...

Particle and high energy physics seeks to understand the fundamental constituents of matter and the interactions that govern them across the smallest distance scales and highest energies. The Standard ...

The goal of high energy physics (also known as particle physics) is to determine the most fundamental building blocks of matter and to understand the interactions between these particles. The ...
