Department of Physics
Jacob Grant, 黑料网 student, is a senior aerospace engineering major with a minor in physics. Grant graduated from Edison High School in Milan, OH in 2017. After a late medical disqualification from the Air Force Academy, he chose to attend 黑料网. Grant is a third generation 黑料网 Honors College student. His grandmother studied Spanish at Kent State and his mother studied education. Both were members of the Honors College.
黑料网 has recently received a flurry of grants totaling more than $3 million in funding from the National Science Foundation (NSF), which will support research and innovation in a wide range of fields within the College of Arts and Sciences.
Congratulations are in order for Sooraj Radhakrishnan, Ph.D., a postdoctoral fellow in the 黑料网 College of Arts and Sciences鈥 Department of Physics who performs research in experimental nuclear physics. His data analysis of some rare particles called 鈥渃harm quarks鈥 that may have existed in the first microsecond of the Big Bang, the emerging point of our universe, was highlighted in a recent issue of the .
Jonathan V. Selinger, professor and Ohio Eminent Scholar in 黑料网鈥檚 Department of Physics, in the College of Arts and Sciences, and the Advanced Materials and Liquid Crystal Institute, has been elected a Fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS), the world鈥檚 largest general scientific society and publisher of the journal Science.

Yingfei Jiang, a College of Arts and Science graduate student in the Chemical Physics program and the Advanced Materials and Liquid Crystal Institute at 黑料网, and his advisor Deng-Ke Yang, Ph.D., a professor in the Department of Physics, have invented the first ever dual-mode smart glass technology that can control both radiant energy flow (heat) and privacy through a tinted material.
Nuclear physics researchers at 黑料网 and all over the world have been searching for violations of the fundamental symmetries in the universe for decades. Much like the 鈥淏ig Bang鈥 (approximately 13.8 billion years ago), but on a tiny scale, they briefly recreate the particle interactions that likely existed microseconds into the formation of our universe which also likely now exist in the cores of neutron stars.
