Astronomy and UMD Physics senior Aneesh Anandanatarajan is heading to UCSB Physics to begin his Ph.D.! He plans to conduct theoretical high-energy and stellar astrophysics research, using simulations and analysis to describe white dwarfs, neutron stars and #BlackHoles. #UMDgrad

By adapting a classic tool for studying quantum phases of matter, JQI researchers proposed a recipe for making new time crystals and provided a framework for studying their phase transitions. National Institute of Standards and Technology UMD Physics UMD Science jqi.umd.edu/news/time-crys…

The first time I heard of IUPAP's Early-Career-Scientist Award in Statistical Physics, I heard Suraj Shankar had won it. We were Kavli Institute for Theoretical Physics Grad Fellows together, and he's achieved impressive feats. So I'm especially honored to be co-receiving the prize.😀 iupap.org/who-we-are/int…

The Maryland Institute for Quantum Applications from University of Maryland ARLIS accelerates our progress in driving the worldwide Capital of Quantum here in Maryland and will ensure quantum technologies meet the evolving needs of our national security. go.umd.edu/1yju #QuantumUMD

📢 Announcing our college's 2025 Undergraduate Commencement Ceremony speakers: go.umd.edu/ugrad-speakers… Arthur Co-founder and CEO Adam Wenchel (B.S. '99, UMD Department of Computer Science) will be the keynote speaker, and Jade LeSchack (B.S. '25, UMD Physics; UMD Math Department) will be the student speaker.

.@UMDphysics and astronomy senior Julia Cottingham's next stop is #GradSchool at UChicago GeoSci! During undergrad, Julia researched improving cloud microphysical parametrizations in circulation models of hot and ultra-hot Jupiters with Astronomy's Tad Komacek. #UMDgrad

Tune in for our 2025 Graduate Commencement Ceremony this afternoon at 2 p.m. ET! Watch the full ceremony—including our keynote from DataRobot CEO Debanjan Saha (M.S. '93, Ph.D. '95, UMD Department of Computer Science) —on our YouTube channel: youtube.com/c/umdscience

To our graduate students—we are so proud of you. You worked diligently to become experts in your fields. You made critical discoveries. You mentored the next generation of scientists in and out of the classroom. Welcome to our community of 60,000 #ScienceTerp alumni! #UMDgrad

Tune in for our 2025 Undergraduate Commencement Ceremony today at 2:30 p.m. ET! Watch the ceremony—including speeches from Adam Wenchel (B.S. '99, UMD Department of Computer Science) and Jade LeSchack (B.S. '25, UMD Physics; B.S. '25, UMD Math Department)—on our YouTube channel: youtube.com/@UMDscience

"This uncertain, multitudinous and interconnected world is waiting for us, the next generation of scientific thinkers. Let's be bold and stay fearless," UMD Physics and UMD Math Department graduate Jade Leschack encouraged her fellow #ScienceTerps. #UMDgrad

🎓 And with that, 2K+ August/December 2024 and May 2025 undergraduate students join our alumni community of 60K #ScienceTerps! Congratulations, from all of us at CMNS. #UMDgrad go.umd.edu/grads-08-24 go.umd.edu/grads-12-24 go.umd.edu/grads-05-25

Congrats to UMD Physics' Brenda Dingus (M.S. '86, Ph.D. '88, physics) on being elected to National Academy of Sciences for her pioneering work in gamma-ray astrophysics! go.umd.edu/NAS25

"The future is taking shape in the Capital of Quantum. Last week, @UnivofMaryland brought together researchers, entrepreneurs, investors and policymakers to drive quantum innovation from the lab to the marketplace." Learn more: umdrightnow.umd.edu/university-of-…

Using data from NASA's Parker Solar Probe, #UMD researchers discovered a key particle accelerator near the sun. They found that "magnetic islands," a process linked to magnetic reconnection, could propel particles near the sun to extremely high energy. go.umd.edu/parker-probe

Researchers at JQI, QuICS, Institute for Robust Quantum Simulation and elsewhere have proposed a new way to quickly demonstrate the power of a #quantum computer and also check its work.
