Thanks so much!

What are the differences between neutrinos and antineutrinos? Find out in this Nature paper based on precision measurements conducted by our researchers and collaborators.

Don't miss this opportunity to do a PhD with us.

Are you a company aiming to tackle interdisciplinary, mission-driven challenges? Join our event and start new collaborations with our researchers.

Congratulations to all, with a special mention to our very own Dr Emma Pearce and PQA (led by our own Prof Andy Harvey)!

University of Glasgow celebrates 10th anniversary of first gravitational wave detection YouTube video by University of Glasgow

Happy #WorldSpaceWeek - an excuse to keep celebrating the 10th anniversary of the first direct detection of gravitational waves!

Our scientists played key roles in the field, including the development of the LIGO detectors' mirror suspensions, which enable detections.

This is a great opportunity to learn how you can benefit from our 𝗠𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗮𝗹𝘀 𝗖𝗵𝗮𝗿𝗮𝗰𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗶𝘀𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗛𝘂𝗯 and 𝗞𝗲𝗹𝘃𝗶𝗻 𝗡𝗮𝗻𝗼𝗰𝗵𝗮𝗿𝗮𝗰𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗶𝘀𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗖𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗿𝗲, among other College research facilities.

Happy #WorldHearthDay- a very difficult organ to image!

In the video you can see how our researchers used 3D microscopy to capture the growing hearts of zebrafish embryos - they were the first to do this while it beats.

This could give us insights into the human heart.

Our very own Dr George Brydon developed an open-source software tool set to transform the way scientists and engineers design imaging systems for space.

Congratulations on the award!

Quote by Dr Graham S. Kerr: "The Astronomy & Astrophysics group within the School of Physics and Astronomy are world leaders in solar physics, especially in the field of solar flares. It really is the natural place to take my fellowship."

Congratulations to Dr Graham Kerr on being awarded a University Research Fellowship by @royalsociety.org. We look forward to welcoming him back to Glasgow to build his own research team, to study eruptions on the Sun (solar flares), which can impact technology on Earth. www.gla.ac.uk/colleges/sci...

We're oblivious to the tiny particles that surround us. Imagine if we could hear them? A musician & a UofG physicist have collaborated to make them audible 🎶

ATLAS Event Display: "Boosted" production of Top Quark Pairs Date: 24-03-2025 Candidate event for the top-antitop-quark pair process with a high-transverse-momentum, hadronically-decaying top quark. The hadronically-decaying top quark is reconstructed from the three particle jets in the upper half of the detector. One of the jets originates from a bottom quark (“b-tagged” in blue cone) and the other two jets (yellow cones) are consistent with being produced from a W-boson decay. The second top quark is reconstructed from the signals in the lower half of the detector: a second b-tagged jet (blue), an additional jet (yellow), a muon (red line) and the missing transverse momentum (not shown). Significant energy deposits are seen in the electromagnetic (green) and hadronic (yellow) calorimeters. Tracks of charged particles in the inner detector are visualised as orange lines.
