The University of Texas at Austin will host the science-themed, STEAM-inspired festival from Feb. 21-March 6.

Three UT Austin scientists and engineers received high-risk high-reward awards this year from TAMEST.

The new model is called WIFI, which stands for dark matter production during Warm Inflation via Freeze-In.

The new instrument could lead to better materials for quantum computers and solar cells.

The annual recognition highlights researchers with extraordinary citation records and societal impact.

Familiar faces and newcomers alike are among the 13 newest tenured and tenure-track faculty members joining the college.

The world’s most sensitive dark matter detector still hasn’t found evidence of weakly interacting massive particles, or WIMPs, but the search continues.

Materials with high magnetoelectric coupling could be useful in novel devices such as magnetic computer memories, chemical sensors and quantum computers.

Feliciano Guistino led a week-long workshop for graduate-level students in modern techniques for computational data science and high-performance computing.

Using supercomputer simulations, Feliciano Giustino and his team are revealing why perovskites are so promising for solar cells, lighting and computer memory.
