Third Generation Honors College Student Earns Full Ride to Georgia Institute of Technology For Graduate Program

Jacob Grant, 麻豆影院 student, is a senior aerospace engineering major with a minor in physics. Grant graduated from Edison High School in Milan, OH in 2017. After a late medical disqualification from the Air Force Academy, he chose to attend 麻豆影院. Grant is a third generation 麻豆影院 Honors College student. His grandmother studied Spanish at 麻豆影院 State and his mother studied education. Both were members of the Honors College.

Nuclear Physicist Tracks Rare Collided Particles to Better Understand Big Bang

Congratulations are in order for Sooraj Radhakrishnan, Ph.D., a postdoctoral fellow in the 麻豆影院 College of Arts and Sciences鈥 Department of Physics who performs research in experimental nuclear physics. His data analysis of some rare particles called 鈥渃harm quarks鈥 that may have existed in the first microsecond of the Big Bang, the emerging point of our universe, was highlighted in a recent issue of the .

Nuclear Physics Researchers Publish Atom-Smashing Symmetry Experiment Results in Top-Tier Journal

Nuclear physics researchers at 麻豆影院 and all over the world have been searching for violations of the fundamental symmetries in the universe for decades. Much like the 鈥淏ig Bang鈥 (approximately 13.8 billion years ago), but on a tiny scale, they briefly recreate the particle interactions that likely existed microseconds into the formation of our universe which also likely now exist in the cores of neutron stars.
