Ohio University’s Dr. Sergio Ulloa, a professor in Physics and Astronomy, published a paper, “Conductance and Kondo interference beyond proportional coupling” in the American Physical Society’s Physical Review Letters. Ulloa collaborated with Brazilian co-authors Luis G. G. V. Dias da Silva of University of São Paulo, Caio H. Lewenkopf of […]

Ohio University physics doctoral student Andrea Richard published an article about understanding the structure of neutron-rich magnesium isotopes in the American Physical Society’s Physical Review C, a peer-reviewed journal covering leading research in nuclear physics. Her paper, “Strongly coupled rotational band in 33Mg,” describes her research on the ground-state rotational band […]

“Stars are giant thermonuclear plasma furnaces that slowly fuse the lighter elements in the universe into heavier elements, releasing energy, and generating the pressure required to prevent collapse. To understand stars, we must rely on nuclear reaction rate data obtained, up to now, under conditions very different from those of […]

  Three Ohio University physicists have collaborated with a three-member team of colleagues based in Germany to describe how multi-material chains made of silver nanoparticles can significantly reduce energy consumption when using plasmonic nanoparticles as energy and information transfer elements. OHIO Post-Doctoral Researcher Dr. Lucas Besteiro, doctoral student Larousse Khosravi […]
