A new paper has been published in the Royal Society of Chemistry journal Energy & Environmental Science by postdoc Yi Yuan, which has been selected as a ‘Research Highlight’ by Nature Energy due to its importance in the field.

Hear from our student blogger Harriet, a 2nd year Physics with Astrophysics student who attended the Conference for Undergraduate Women and Non-Binary Physicists (CUWiP) this year hosted by the University of ÌÇÐÄTV Department of Physics.

In April, the department were selected by the Institute of Physics to host the Conference for Undergraduate Women and Non-Binary Physicists (CUWiP)Link opens in a new window. The four-day event brought together female and non-binary undergraduate physics students from universities across the UK and Ireland. With an impressive 185 applications received, the local organising committee allocated 100 delegate spaces, ensuring a diverse and engaged cohort of participants based on a shortlisting criterion developed by the team.

Congratulations to Professor Valery Nakariakov, from our Centre for Fusion, Space & Astrophysics who has been awarded £2.1 million from the European Research Council (ERC). The ERC AdG project aims to transformatively advance our understanding of the long-standing mystery of why the Sun's outer atmosphere - the corona - is heated to millions of degrees.
