Dark matter detector upgraded
One of the world’s most sensitive scientific instruments has been upgraded to aid in the search for dark matter .
Soft Matter in Motion
Abstract The cellular world is inhabited by a myriad of microorganisms able to self-propel, including many bacteria, spermatozoa, ciliates, and plankton. Here, we focus on the biophysics of ciliary locomotion. Cilia are short slender whiplike

Pattern formation in active matter systems
'Active matter ' is used to describe non-equilibrium systems made up of elements which constantly take energy from their environment and use it to do work. Many biological systems can be viewed as active matter . Examples include the cytoskeleton,
Black Lives Matter : Next Steps in Chemistry | School of Chemistry | School of Chemistry
It has been 3 months since the killing of George Floyd sparked a movement and renewed calls for justice and decolonisation in regard to race equality and racism. The Equality, Diversity and Inclusion (EDI) Committee in Chemistry has been engaging in
Dark Matter searches with DAMIC detectors
DAMIC for Dark Matter In CCD is a program of direct dark matter search using thick CCDs as target and sensor. Thanks to the precise energy estimation, the spatial resolution and the very low noise of these sensors, DAMIC is sensitive to low mass
Scientists close in on dark matter
Scientists have refined their search for dark matter with the completion of a sophisticated experiment.
Axion dark matter : crisis and opportunity
Axions are an increasingly popular dark matter candidate with a flourishing experimental campaign now poised to discover them if they exist. However there is a potential crisis lurking within this model which could make a discovery impossible, even
