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 Matthew Connell (B.S. Physics, Honors Tutorial College, Class of 2021) Editor’s Note: Matthew Connell worked with Dr. Zach Meisel, an assistant professor in Physics & Astronomy and programmed a simulation of a new detector array being developed at Ohio University’s Edwards Accelerator Laboratory. Matthew’s simulations will enable researchers to […]

By Miranda Carver (B.S. Astrophysics, College of Arts & Sciences, Class of 2020) The meson is a particle made from one quark and one antiquark.  The strong force between quarks allows mesons with different masses to exist, each with unique quantum numbers.  The f1(1285) meson has a mass of 1285 […]

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 […]

Are you interested in purchasing and eating fresh, sustainable, and Appalachian Ohio-grown produce on Ohio University’s campus? Do you want to engage in a food system that supports neighboring communities and keeps food dollars in our region? Food Studies is thrilled to announce that Ohio University’s Culinary Services will officially […]
