Congratulations to David Gross, winner of the 2026 Special Breakthrough Prize in Fundamental Physics, for a lifetime of groundbreaking contributions to theoretical physics, from the strong force to string theory, and for tireless advocacy for basic science worldwide. https://t.co/awmRtAX5vT @ucsantabarbara@KITP_UCSB
@arjunkatwal24 Ho ni. KU le prestige ko lagi enroll garaideko ho. Famous alumni hunxa bhanera Tara quality chai degrade hunxa. Mayor hudai enroll bako ani aba PM hudai xa .
Perfectly coherent!
SLAC researchers are developing an X-ray laser oscillator designed to emit perfectly coherent X-ray pulses - and it's almost ready!
A prototype will be built and tested at SLAC’s LCLS and Japan's SACLA X-ray laser facilities: https://t.co/yNIxyCw2Gg
On March 12, we’ll honor Nobel Laureate C.N. Yang, Albert Einstein Professor Emeritus, whose work reshaped modern physics and helped build Stony Brook into a global center for theory.
Join us as we reflect on his scientific legacy. Register by March 4: https://t.co/uhVf4uKmgX
@sascha_feldmann While constructing the NOPA, his tutorial papers were extremely helpful. His tutorial papers are clear and easy to understand. I am pleased to see him. Giulio Cerullo is the distinguished figure in the field of ultrafast spectroscopy.
A massive new study on peak performance included 34,000 international top performers: Nobel laureates, renowned classical music composers, Olympic champs, and the world’s best chess players. It shows early specialization is a trap, and the road to greatness is long and varied.
Chen-Ning Yang, the Nobel Prize-winning physicist who founded SBU's globally renowned Institute for Theoretical Physics, died yesterday at the age of 103.

What kind of childhood makes a top scientist? Is it enough to have all the right traits (brilliance, grit, etc) or do you need the right family too?
And why should we care? A 🧵 on our paper on the Nobel Laureates.
