23 OctSamples collected from the surface of the Moon by the crew of Apollo 16 more than 50 years ago have helped scientists reconstruct billions of years of lunar history. The research team’s findings, published in the journal Meteoritics & Planetary Science, are based on analysis of a distinct set of lunar breccias that have never been scrutinised in detail before. Dr Mark Nottingham led the research while working at the University of Manchester. He has since joined UofG GES.

Research breakthrough could enable future generations of self-sensing materials
A team of engineers led by researchers from the University of Glasgow have developed the first system capable of modelling the complex physics of 3D-printed composites capable of detecting strain, load, and damage using nothing more than a measure of electrical current. Professor Shanmugam Kumar, of the University of Glasgow’s James Watt School of Engineering led the research, which is published as an article in the journal Advanced Functional Materials. -

UofG physicists play key role in CERN’s first observation of ultra-rare particle
Researchers from the University of Glasgow have played a vital role in the very first observation of an ultra-rare particle decay process. The finding - the first experimental observation of the ultra-rare decay of the charged kaon into a charged pion and a neutrino-antineutrino pair - will open a new path to find physics beyond the Standard Model of particle physics.
