MIT program sends students abroad for experiences tailor-made for their academic and professional interests.
Building chips from collapsing nanopillars
By turning a common problem in chip manufacture into an advantage, MIT researchers produce structures only 30 atoms wide.
Movies of electrons
Lasers that emit pulses lasting a quintillionth of a second could characterize the behavior of individual electrons during chemical reactions.
After almost 20 years, math problem falls
MIT researchers’ answer to a major question in the field of optimization brings disappointing news — but there’s a silver lining.
