An international team of physicists, including several from the high energy experiment group at the UC Davis Department of Physics and Astronomy, has come up with the best measure yet of the mass of the W-boson – putting it in conflict with existing elements of the Standard Model of particle physics.

QMAP postdoctoral researcher, Shruti Paranjape, was awarded the 2022-2023 UC Davis Chancellor's Postdoctoral Fellowship.

Overheating is a major problem for today’s computers, but those of tomorrow might stay cool by circumventing a canonical boundary on information processing. Professor Jim Crutchfield and his graduate student Kyle Ray were featured in an article on the topic in Scientific American.

The first cohort of 10 graduate student fellows under the Department of Energy funded HEPCAT program has been selected. Among them are UC Davis Physics graduate students Joseph Levine and Blanca Nino.

Shirley Chiang has been elected as Vice Chair, to-be Chair of the Executive Committee of the APS Division of Condensed Matter Physics.

UC Davis Distinguished Professor of Physics Tony Tyson has been honored with an asteroid!

The Curro and Taufour groups published their collaborative work in the iron-based superconductor FeSe recently.

New work on the study of collective behavior builds on earlier work by Professor James Crutchfield, UC Davis Department of Physics and Complexity Sciences Center, and postdoctoral researcher Ryan James.
