This fall, Assistant Professor of Physics and Astronomy Burçin Mutlu-Pakdil can be seen as a life-size 3D-printed statue as part of "#IfThenSheCan — The Exhibit", a collection of 120 statues of leading women in science, technology, engineering, and math.
"The rate at which magnetic field lines reconnect is of extreme importance for processes in space that can impact Earth," said Yi-Hsin Liu, an assistant professor of physics and astronomy at Dartmouth. "After decades of effort, we now have a full theory to address this long-standing problem."
Dartmouth is home to the first tunable superfluid circuit using electron-like atoms.
