Nature is full of patterns. Among them are tiling patterns, like what you see on a giraffe's coat. But what makes these natural patterns form? A new UArizona study uses bacteria to help answer that question.
The Large Binocular Telescope is unrivaled in the global arsenal of optical telescopes. Sporting two 27-foot mirrors made at UArizona, its unique design allows astronomers to make observations that would not otherwise be possible.
The partnership, which also includes researchers in the Republic of Ireland and Northern Ireland, will focus on developing technology that will provide connectivity between quantum computers over short and long distances.
Tech Launch Arizona, the university's commercialization arm, recorded 303 novel inventions between July 1, 2021, and June 30 – the most invention disclosures registered for a single year in UArizona history.
University of Arizona students and faculty members completed a comprehensive study to track and characterize satellites, using a ground-based sensor they developed to measure satellites' brightness, speed and paths through the sky.
Researchers have developed a new class of drugs that is able to cross the blood-brain barrier. The technology has been licensed to the startup Teleport Pharmaceuticals.
Analyses based on locations and viral sequencing of early cases indicate the COVID-19 pandemic started in Wuhan's Huanan Seafood Wholesale Market, with two separate jumps from animals to humans.
Two University of Arizona experts discuss why Southern Arizona is a mecca for bats, share tips on how to best observe them, and clear up myths surrounding these creatures of the night.
After decades of development, a nail-biting launch and months of space travel and commissioning, NASA has released the first images captured by the James Webb Space Telescope. The images hint at the beginning of years of space science, made possible in part by the 21 UArizona researchers who have played a role in developing and managing Webb's onboard instruments.
Before-and-after data from the few seconds it took the OSIRIS-REx spacecraft to collect a sample from asteroid Bennu revealed a surprise: The particles of Bennu's exterior are so loosely packed, they act more like a fluid than a solid.
