A team of researchers and technical staff from Yale’s Wright Laboratory (Wright Lab), in collaboration with researchers from the Department of Energy’s Brookhaven National Laboratory’s (BNL) Electronic Detector Group, the University of Chicago; and the University of Iowa, has successfully assembled and tested the first Charge Readout Planes (CRPs) at Wright Lab for the

Karsten Heeger, Eugene Higgins Professor of Physics, director of the Yale Wright Laboratory (Wright Lab), and chair of the Yale Physics Department, is the deputy chair of the new Particle Physics Project Prioritization Panel (P5) that will set a vision for US particle physics for the next decade and beyond.

Wright Lab associate professor of physics David Moore and his collaborators Daniel Carney (Physics Division, Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory and Kyle Leach (Department of Physics, Colorado School of Mines, and Facility for Rare Isotope Beams, Michigan State University) have proposed mechanical quantum sensor technologies to make ultra-sensitive measurements that can

A team from the Yale Undergraduate Aerospace Association (YUAA) received a grant in 2018 from NASA’s CubeSat Launch initiative (CSLI) to develop and fly the Bouchet Low Earth Alpha-Beta Space Telescope (BLAST), a 2U cosmic ray detector spacecraft, in Low Earth Orbit.  

Yale and Wright Lab have partnered with the GAINS Network again to host the 2022 Girls Advancing in STEM (GAINS) Conference  on November 13-15, 2022. The GAINS conference brought together 121 high school female and non-binary students along with 30 teachers from public, private, and charter schools across the United States who have an interest in STEM with 54 volunteer

Over nearly nine years, the Daya Bay Reactor Neutrino Experiment captured an unprecedented five and a half million interactions from subatomic particles called neutrinos.

The Canadian Hydrogen Intensity Mapping Experiment ( CHIME)  has reached "a milestone in the quest to discover the hidden origins of universal structure," according to an article in Scientific American, called "Canadian Telescope Delivers Deepest-Ever Radio View of Cosmic Web," written by Wright Lab alum Ben Bruba

The new Menehune wasp was first discovered at the University of Hawaii Manoa by a graduate assistant.

Physicists are closing in on the true nature of the neutrino — and might be closer to answering a fundamental question about our own existence
