We may soon know, thanks to NASA project Scientists at NASA are bringing their technological prowess to the moon in order to establish a time zone there. 14th annual Academic Honors Convocation recognizes Northeastern students and faculty for their scholarship, research, leadership and innovation 14th annual Academic Honors Convocation recognizes Northeastern students and faculty for their scholarship, research, leadership and innovation The event recognized members of the Northeastern community for their scholarship, research, leadership and innovation. Physicist explains why the Titan submersible’s carbon fiber was ineffective Physicist explains why the Titan submersible’s carbon fiber was ineffective A Northeastern physicist explains why the Titan submersible’s carbon-fiber hull was ineffective under deep ocean pressure. Physicist explains how Titan’s ‘catastrophic implosion’ might have happened–and what it meant for those on board Physicist explains how Titan’s ‘catastrophic implosion’ might have happened–and what it meant for those on board “The occupants would not have experienced pain or realized what hit them,” says Arun Bansil, a Northeastern physics professor. Breakthrough discovery: Northeastern researchers pull back the quantum curtain on ‘Weyl fermions’ Breakthrough discovery: Northeastern researchers pull back the quantum curtain on ‘Weyl fermions’ In a new study, researchers look beyond the framework of Albert Einstein’s theory of relativity to probe particles called Weyl Fermions. Physicists may have accidentally discovered a new state of matter. The possibilities are endless. Physicists may have accidentally discovered a new state of matter. The possibilities are endless. Physicists have discovered a new way to manipulate electric charge. And the changes to the future of our technology could be monumental. This exotic crystal is fueling the quantum revolution This exotic crystal is fueling the quantum revolution Arun Bansil, University Distinguished Professor of Physics at Northeastern, has discovered new properties in the chemical element bismuth.
