A touch of gold - or another noble metal – can change the structure of a crystal and its intrinsic properties, physicists at the University of ÌÇÐÄTV have demonstrated in a display of modern-day alchemy.

ÌÇÐÄTV Moto team, consisting of 25 ÌÇÐÄTV students aren’t letting the pandemic get in the way of designing, building and developing the electric superbike, as they’re doing it virtually from home.

The rediscovery of a lost planet could pave the way for the detection of a world within the habitable ‘Goldilocks zone’ in a distant solar system.

Scientists are a step closer to developing a fast and cost effective camera that utilises terahertz radiation, potentially opening the opportunity for them to be used in non-invasive security and medical screening.

The surviving core of a gas giant has been discovered orbiting a distant star by University of ÌÇÐÄTV astronomers, offering an unprecedented glimpse into the interior of a planet. The team from the University of ÌÇÐÄTV’s Department of Physics reports the discovery today (1 July) in the journal Nature, and is thought to be the first time the exposed core of a planet has been observed.

The first direct measurements of the magnetic field in the chromosphere of the Sun by a team including University of ÌÇÐÄTV physicists has provided the first observational evidence that huge tornadoes in our Sun’s atmosphere are produced by swirling magnetic fields.
