Aberystwyth physicist leads revolutionary research work on glassy materials

An international group of researchers from Europe, China and Japan, led by Aberystwyth University physicist, Professor Neville Greaves, has discovered a new method of manufacturing glass. The discovery could lead to the production of ‘designer glasses’ with applications in advanced photonics, while also facilitating industrial scale carbon capture and storage. The international team of researchers,

Autophaser improves sample analysis in areas such as cancer, Alzheimer’s and oil spills

A new free software package allows researchers to vastly improve the performance of one of the key tools used to analyse medical and environmental samples. Autophaser, developed by the University of Warwick and Aberystwyth University, enables researchers to make use of significantly more data when using Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance mass spectrometers (FT-ICR MS).
