By studying the dynamics of plasma turbulence, MIT researchers are solving one of the mysteries of the origins of cosmological magnetic fields.

Clean electricity and stored heat from nuclear power and intermittent electricity from wind and solar can be efficiently converted to green hydrogen, fuels and chemicals using protonic ceramic electrolyzers with exceptional performance and stability. The reduction in the use of fossil fuels...

The winners of the first-ever Climate Grand Challenges will become multiyear flagship research projects, helping define a new research agenda focused on addressing complex unsolved climate problems and bringing high-impact solutions to the world on an accelerated basis.

Friday, April 1, 2022. 1:00 PM – 3:20 PM ET Koch Institute, 500 Main Street first floor Main Corridor and Galleries and Auditorium 76-156 The MIT Department of Nuclear Science and Engineering held its annual Research Expo on April 1, 2022. The...

MIT researchers discovered hidden magnetic properties in multi-layered electronic material by analysing polarized neutrons using neural networks. Superconductors have long been considered the principal approach for realizing electronics without resistivity. In the past decade, a new family of quantum materials, “topological materials,”...

If Changhao Li were to trace the origins of his love of nature, he would point to the time when he was nine, observing the night sky from his childhood home in the small town of Jinan, China. “At that moment I...

“I catch myself startling people in public.” Zoe Fisher’s animated hands carry part of the conversation as she describes how her naturally loud and expressive laughter turned heads in the streets of Yerevan. There during MIT’s Independent Activities period (IAP), she was...

A team of researchers at MIT and Brookhaven National Laboratory have come up with a way of stabilizing the interfaces in solid-state lithium-ion batteries opens new possibilities.

Center for Electrification and Decarbonization of Industry, led by Yet-Ming Chiang and Bilge Yildiz and Decarbonizing and strengthening the global energy infrastructure using nuclear batteries, led by Jacopo Buongiorno are finalists in the Climate Grand Challenges competition launched in July 2020.

The 48th Annual Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Celebration, held virtually on February 10 themed ‘Open your mind and heart to truth and love’
