Julie Schumacher, MFA ’86, closes out her satirical series with "The English Experience," in which a study-abroad trip goes off the rails.
The muon g-2 ring sits in its detector hall amidst electronics racks, the muon beamline and other equipment at the U.S. Department of Energy’s Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory. This experiment studies the precession (or wobble) of muons as they travel through the magnetic field.
A Cornell team is designing some of the technology that captures the muon data.

This metamaterial robot, which can morph into different shapes, is the type of machine Cornell researchers hope to build at the microscale using a new design paradigm inspired by the operation of proteins and hummingbird beaks.
The Graduate School spoke with Darren Pereira, a doctoral candidate in physics, about his summer research at the University of Florence in Florence, Italy.

Environment and Sustainability students visit the Ithaca Area Wastewater Treatment Facility. IAWWTF is a key community partner in a project studying contaminants in Cayuga Lake.
The funded community-engaged learning projects provide opportunities for students to excavate ancient Pompeii, establish a community garden in Moshi, Tanzania and more.
