The Department of Physics and Astronomy at UNL houses many state-of-the-art research and teaching facilities. Among these include the Extreme Light Laboratory, which houses Diocles, one of the most powerful lasers in the world, the on-campus Student Observatory and Behlen Observatory in Mead, NE, where students can study astrophysical phenomena such as quasars and pulsating stars. Graduate and Undergraduate students are involved in research and projects like the study of nanoscale magnetic materials important in future technological development. They also perform experiments to "stop" light and do research on matter waves and unusual behavior of chiral molecules. Some students even study the fundamental constituents of matter that make up our universe at some of the world's highest-energy particle accelerator laboratories. In the Department of Physics and Astronomy, there are countless exciting possibilities to explore... Please use the navigation bar to your left
