New advancement in Nanophotonics explains how collections of hot nanoparticles cool down
Everyone has sat outside on a sunny day and been warmed by the sun’s rays. This happens through a process known as radiative heat transfer: the sun emits light (electromagnetic radiation), which travels to the Earth and heats up the objects that absorb it. Radiative heat transfer is also the mechanism behind thermal cameras.
Every hot object, including human beings, emits light, allowing it to release heat and thermalize to the environment. The wavelengths, or colors of light that are emitted, depend on the temperature of the object, with the sun being hot enough to produce visible light and human bodies emitting light that is not visible to the eye but can be picked up by infrared sensors.

When he decided to transfer to Colorado State University, Weston Jones had some concerns.
“To be honest, I was a little scared of coming to a mostly white university,” said Jones, a member of the Oglala Lakota Nation who grew up on the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation in South Dakota. “I didn’t know if I would be able to find any people like me.”
He did, thanks to outreach by the Native American Cultural Center’s North Star peer mentoring program. Jones became a mentor himself, estimating that he has helped nearly 100 incoming first-year and transfer students find their way within the campus community over the past three years. He was also part of the Community for Excellence and AISES, which plans the annual campus pow wow.
ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. The University of New Mexico Track and Field Team is set to travel to Clovis, Calif. for the 2021 Mountain West Outdoor Championships. The three-day event kicks off Thursday, May 13, and runs through Saturday, May 15.

Two program records have already been broken this season, one in the women’s high jump and one in the women’s 200m dash. It was Tianna Holmes who made both program and West Coast Relays history in the women’s 200m dash, crossing the finish line in 23.22 seconds. The previous UNM record was set by Barbara Bell (23.44) on April 28, 1984, and So Cal’s Juan Ball set the meet record in 1996 (23.39).
