The [CII] Resolved ISM in STar-forming galaxies with ALMA (CRISTAL survey) peered back to when the Universe was only about one billion years old – a mere toddler in cosmic terms. These observations are helping scientists understand how galaxies formed and evolved from primordial gas clouds into the organized structures we see today.

Largest Oort Cloud Comet Ever Observed Reveals Its Secrets with ALMA’s Powerful Gaze
A team of astronomers has made a groundbreaking discovery by detecting molecular activity in comet C/2014 UN271 (Bernardinelli-Bernstein)—the largest and second most distantly active comet ever observed from the Oort Cloud.
The National Society of Black Physicists is pleased to announce the 2015 Annual Conference
The conference is to be held at the Hilton Baltimore in Baltimore, Maryland on Wednesday, February 25–Saturday, February 28, 2015.
The Annual Conference brings together a broad range of experts in multiple fields of physics (astronomy, astrophysics, biophysics, condensed matter and materials, physics, high energy….and more). NSBP conference is the largest academic meeting of minority physicists in the United States. It is co-organized in partnership with Associated Universities, Inc. and co-sponsored by the National Science Foundation.
NSBP is privileged to have 246 students sponsored by the National Science Foundation. In addition, the Hilton Baltimore Hotel will sponsor two students through a separate application process.
The conference will consist of three full days of educational sessions, exhibitions, and interactive networking opportunities, as well as, a student career fair and poster sessions on cutting edge issues related to current trends in physics and science.
We hope you will join us as we “Re-Vision The Future of Scientific Leadership.”
