With a startup called CarbeniumTec, researchers in the College of Science and the College of Medicine – Tucson aim to bring to market new technology that reimagines how electricity is stored.

Combining advanced climate model simulations with marine sediment analyses, a new study reveals what may have triggered massive ice sheets to form in Scandinavia, ringing in the last glacial period some 100,000 years ago.

Dr. Condon, an exemplary hydrologist at UArizona, was selected for the series for her outstanding research and mentoring efforts within the College of Science community.

Evidence suggests that carbon nanotubes, tiny tubes consisting of pure carbon, could be forged in the envelopes of dust and gas surrounding dying stars. The findings propose a simple, yet elegant mechanism for the formation and survival of complex carbon molecules in space.

Astronomers have discovered a new type of stellar system that contains only young, blue stars. The structures are thought to be created when galaxies collide with hot gas in something of a galactic belly flop.

Weather watchers are invited to submit their monsoon predictions online in the Southwest Monsoon Fantasy Forecasts game. Created by UArizona climate researchers, the game draws inspiration from fantasy sports.

Extreme supergiant stars known as hypergiants are very rare, with only a few known to exist in the Milky Way. Astronomers have created a detailed, three-dimensional image of one dying hypergiant, providing new insights into what happens at the end of these rare stars' lives.

UArizona scientists took part in an international planetary defense exercise that used asteroid Apophis – a large, potentially hazardous asteroid – to test the planetary defense response chain.
