By Rush Deeter (B.S. Physics, College of Arts & Sciences, Class of 2019) Editor’s Note: Rush Deeter worked with Dr. Eric Stinaff on a project to exfoliate various two-dimensional materials such as molybdenum disulphide and tungsten diselenide onto lithographically patterned substrates for single photon applications. He used silicon/silicon dioxide substrates […]

By Ana Bucki-Lopez (B.S. Physics, Astrophysics, College of Arts & Sciences, Class of 2019) Editor’s Note: Ana Bucki-Lopez participated in a group project with astrophysicist Dr. Hee-Jong Seo in Physics & Astronomy. The researchers use a deep learning technique to model and mitigate various observational systematics when extracting the cosmological […]

By Kevin Boyd (B.S. Physics Astrophysics, College of Arts & Sciences, Class of 2020) Experiment E12-06-114 at Jefferson Lab measured the probability of an electron inducing the radiation of a photon by a proton in kinematic regimes previously unexplored. The measurement was performed in 9 different settings. The goal of […]

 Anika Friedman, a double major in Physics and Neuroscience in Ohio University’s Honors Tutorial College, spent two years on her undergraduate research project focused on determining the mechanism for neurofilament slowing using computational models. Neurofilaments are the most abundant filamentous structures in the axons of neurons and determine their […]

By Ian Billig (B.S. Physics, Honors Tutorial College, Class of 2019) I studied methods in nuclear physics with Dr. Daniel Phillips, a professor in Physics & Astronomy. I worked with toy models (where the physics problem is simplified) to understand principles. My ultimate goal was to apply these methods in […]

By Zak Blumer ’18 B.S. Engineering Physics, Honors Tutorial College During most of my childhood, my father served as the director of The Wilds—one of the largest wildlife conservation centers in North America. Living in eastern Ohio, I was surrounded by nature and wildlife, and consequently grew up with a […]
