That flawed diamond could be a quantum physicist’s best friend

Suzanne Staggs is in charge of the hardware for doubling the mapping speed for the Large Aperture Telescope.  (This amounts to doubling the numbers of detectors in its camera, and their associated lenses and other optical elements.) 

Jo Dunkley is in charge of the data pipeline, enabling broad use of data…

Congratulations to Sanfeng Wu for winning the 2023 Sloan Research Fellowship.

Princeton researchers have achieved a major breakthrough by microscopically studying molecular gases at a level never before achieved by previous research.

 Spider is the Cosmic Microwave Background polarimeter, which last flew from Antarctica in 2015. SuperBIT is like the Hubble Space Telescope, but smaller aperture and flies from a balloon. The experiment is run by Prof. Bill Jones and his team.
