FACULTY SPOTLIGHT
The recently awarded the Theoretical High Energy Physics Group at CCNY a research grant of $744997 for three years.
In this research project, Professors Franco, Nair, and Polychronakos will explore two fundamental concepts. The first of these is "entanglement". This refers to the surprising correlations between measurements carried out far from each other (sometimes referred to as "quantum weirdness鈥 or "spooky action at a distance鈥). The second of these is the curvature of space and time, which is the source of gravitational forces according to Einstein鈥檚 theory of gravity.
PHYSICS STUDENTS
Charanjot Singh (CCFELL, PHYS) has been accepted to CUNY Graduate Center鈥檚 PhD program in Physics (), fall 2023. Charanjot also received the Top Presenter Award at American Physical Society's (APS) Future of Physics Days Fair held March 5-10, 2023 for his presentation: "Strain engineering effects on the optical properties of bilayer MoS鈧." He will also represent CCNY at the CUNY-wide celebration of undergraduate research in May.
