The key activities of the department Planetary Gophysics (PLP) are the theoretical modeling of structure and evolution of planetary bodies, interpretation and inversion of geophysical and geochemical ...

Dark matter is a confounding concept that teeters on the leading edges of cosmology and physics. We don't know what it is or ...

The Planetary Geology Department studies the solid surfaces of planets, moons, and small bodies in the solar system. Geological mapping as well as morphological and spectral analyses provide a record ...

Thermal, mechanical, quantum, and radiative processes in gases and plasmas, with emphasis on spectroscopy, atomic and molecular physics, statistical mechanics, and kinetic theory, with applications in ...

Venus may be far more geologically alive than anyone expected. New research suggests its outer crust could be churning with ...

This program studies extreme weather, climate change, and their impacts on both ecosystems and modern society. This research area uses biology, chemistry, geology, and physics to understand how the ...

All planets are made of gas, ice, rock and metal, and models of how planets form usually assume that these materials don't ...

Astronomy and planetary science are the study of objects and phenomena that occur beyond the Earth’s atmosphere. This includes investigating stars and their interaction with each other and the ...

The beams from the accelerator are used in two different research projects in the areas of atmospheric physics, comets and planetary physics, and archaeology and environmental studies research. The ...
