Alexandria Johnson does hard science on the most nebulous of subjects: clouds. As an atmospheric scientist and assistant professor of practice in Purdue University’s College of Science, she studies ...
Graduate students analyze cloud formation data with research scientist Jesse Anderson, using the Pi Cloud Chamber to study atmospheric processes. × Michigan Tech's Pi Cloud Chamber is giving ...
As part of the international CLOUD project at the nuclear research centre CERN, researchers at PSI have identified so-called sesquiterpenes – gaseous hydrocarbons that are released by plants – as ...
Every year between September and December, Lubna Dada makes clouds. Dada, an atmospheric scientist, convenes with dozens of her colleagues to run experiments in a 7,000-gallon stainless steel chamber ...
A new experiment conducted at the world's largest particle physics laboratory, demonstrates the mechanism for how the gas-phase form of iodine -- known as iodic acid -- forms, and suggests it has a ...
When triggered by some external agent, shockwaves can propagate through molecular clouds of gas and dust to create pockets of dense material. At a certain limit, that dense gas and dust collapses and ...
Plants release gaseous hydrocarbons called sesquiterpenes. Scientists have now found that sesquiterpenes are a significant factor in cloud formation. Right now, there is still debate about how much ...
