New research reveals how bacteria construct tiny flagella ‘nanomachines’ outside the cell.

On 30 September, the Department of Physics will host the second annual Winton Symposium at the Cavendish Laboratory on ‘Materials Discovery’.

Cambridge scientists at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN, near Geneva, have spotted one of the rarest particle decays ever seen in nature.

New professor is one of the joint discoverers of a planet orbiting a normal star beyond the Solar System.

A breakthrough in the development of a new generation of plastic electronic circuits by researchers at the Cavendish Laboratory brings flexible and transparent intelligent materials – such as artificial skin and interactive playing cards - a step closer.

A collaborative project between physicists, oncologists and computer scientists at Oxford and Cambridge Universities, launched last month, will develop improved tools for the planning of high precision radiotherapy. Accel-RT will also help overcome time constraints that currently limit the use of complex radiotherapy treatment.

Funded by a £20 million donation from David Harding, the Winton Programme for the Physics of Sustainability aims to address some of the major challenges affecting the modern world.

Physicists from the Hitachi Cambridge Laboratory, the University of Cambridge and other institutes have successfully developed technology to enable the control and detection of spin current in a similar way to electric current.
