Electrons are incredibly fast. Because of their ultrafast motions, directly observing their behavior has been challenging. Now researchers from UC San Diego’s Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry have suggested a new method to make visualizing electron motion a reality.
The size of very large earthquakes might be easier to predict than smaller quakes. A Scripps-led team found that a new model did a good job explaining the amount of slip due to the 2023 Turkey earthquakes. The model also predicts some quakes might have the potential to be bigger than thought.
UC San Diego faculty members Vashan Wright and Xiaolong Wang have been selected to receive 2025 Sloan Research Fellowships, a prestigious award from the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation.
An innovative circuit design could enable miniature devices, such as microdrones and other microrobotics, to be powered for longer periods of time while staying lightweight and compact.
The research provides the most comprehensive look yet at how the rapid expansion of sports betting venues — particularly online — is impacting betting and driving record increases in gambling addiction across the U.S.
New research from scientists at UC San Diego’s Scripps Institution of Oceanography finds that atmospheric rivers explain the majority of atypical El Niño Southern Oscillation (ENSO) years, such as 2023.
