Today @MooreFound announced support of 16 experimental physicists. It’s a great honor to be selected. Gordon Moore shaped our society w/ Intel & Moore’s Law, and he & his wife continue their impact through the foundation. #moorephysics @okstate @OSU_CEAT

The USS Oklahoma (SSN-802) crew, a Virginia-class sub, visited @okstate yesterday. They've visisted multiple times, but this was the first time I was on campus at the same time. I miss doing @USNavy research, so it's fund to share my lab and some past stories w/ them @okstate_MAE

@itoms_lindaw @ConversationUS @okstate @okstate_MAE @OSU_CEAT @itoms_lindaw I think one of the interesting observations when looking at the whole was identifying when the signal reflected off of some surfaces and not others. This makes it a rather informative observations for studying how these sounds can propagate in the atmosphere

Recent article from @ConversationUS which focuses on some of our work on geophysical observations during the OSIRIS-REx reentry. @okstate @okstate_MAE @OSU_CEAT

My PhD student Garrett Terry (https://t.co/fYABpLArrp) just publishing an @ASA_POMA article presenting preliminary results showing latent heat can amplify turbulent noise. @acousticsorg @okstate_MAE @okstate @MooreFound

Honored to be the recipient of the 2025 @OSU_CEAT Excellent Faculty Award (senior category because I'm getting old). Also congrats to fellow @okstate_MAE awardees including Dr. Kursat Kara (Excellent Junior Faculty) and Dr. Arena (Dean's Leadership Excellence Award).

[Brian R. Elbing @ElbingProf]

Congrats to @forrealkc1 on his recent publication in @SeismoSocietyAm Seismological Research Letters comparing infrasound observations between the OSIRIS-REx reentry and Genesis/Stardust entries. https://t.co/LSe8aesW7G #SRL @OSU_CEAT @okstate_MAE @okstate

[Brian R. Elbing @ElbingProf]

Honored to have received the @okstate 2024 Regents Distinguished Research Award. Thanks to @okstate_MAE dept head Harimkar and @OSU_CEAT Dean Huang!

[Brian R. Elbing @ElbingProf]

Our paper, led by Zeeshan Saeed, on the influence of the Weissenberg number within a polymer modified (drag reduced) turbulent boundary layer was published in @PhysRevFluids today. We created uniform Wi within a developing TBL and measured the velocity:

Our paper, led by @SilberAstrum, on the geophysical observations from the @NASA OSIRIS-REx SRC re-entry is now available. My team focused on infrasound measurements near the Nevada/Utah border. @forrealkc1 @emaleehough14 @Artimis888 @OSU_CEAT @okstate_MAE

Congrats to the newest cohort of the @MooreFound EPI fellows. I got the pleasure to meet a few of you already at this years convening, but look forward to hearing more about your research next year!

[Moore Foundation @MooreFound]

🚀 We're excited to announce the 2024 Experimental Physics Investigators! 🎉 These 19 researchers will receive $1.25M each to explore new and uncharted areas. Learn more about their groundbreaking work: https://t.co/WiWO727ccx #MoorePhysics #ScienceFunding

[Brian R. Elbing @ElbingProf]

I can't believe it's been 20 yrs since I worked w/ Dr. Allan Zuckerwar @NASA Langley, where he taught me acoustics. It produced my 1st journal article. I owe so much to this man as it shape the direction of grad school for me and told me I should measure the sound from a tornado.

[Brian R. Elbing @ElbingProf]

Print version of the @WSJ article on the sounds from tornadoes. @OSU_CEAT @okstate

[Brian R. Elbing @ElbingProf]

Doug has been a great addition to my lab this past year.

[Brian R. Elbing @ElbingProf]

Here is a @WSJ article that references my tornado infrasound work. @OSU_CEAT @okstate_MAE @okstate

[The Wall Street Journal @WSJ]

The roar of a tornado is often compared with the rumble of a freight train. Here’s what makes the twister’s sound—and how some scientists hope to use low frequencies to detect the storms. https://t.co/RB5WLGtRcx https://t.co/RB5WLGtRcx

[Brian R. Elbing @ElbingProf]

.@SilberAstrum and myself wrote a short article for @ConversationUS about the team of researchers that recorded infrasound and other signals from the NASA OSIRIS-REx reentry in Sept of 2023. https://t.co/EaQEKMHWSm

Congrats to @forrealkc1 for publishing his second publication. This one examines the impact of a serrated edge to mitigate the adverse effects from a backward facing step on a laminar boundary layer. @FluidsMdpi

Did you know that low-frequency sound waves below 20 Hz, known as infrasound, can provide crucial insights into a planet's atmosphere and interior? Read more at https://t.co/qnf9n0POxj
