Scientists now have obtained the clearest three-dimensional view of the nebula, thanks to a research team led by Carlson Center for Imaging Science and School of Physics and Astronomy Professor Joel Kastner.

RIT researchers have been a partner with Landsat projects for decades, and a group is now helping the program prepare for its next iteration with Landsat Next.

A research project during Mohammad Saif's undergraduate career drew his attention to imaging, and now he has focused his academic career in remote sensing. Opportunities outside of the lab and the field have helped him learn how to better communicate and discuss the impact of his work.

Understanding how contaminants in porous materials flow and are transported is key in the fields of industry, medicine, and environmental science. A two person team in the School of Physics and Astronomy recently had their research on the topic published and featured on the cover of Soft Matter, a journal by the Royal Society of Chemistry.

The recent total solar eclipse over Rochester provided a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity on Earth for two faculty-researchers and their students to capture data about the effects of the sun’s energy during a total eclipse.

Landslides are one of the most destructive natural disasters on the planet, causing billions of dollars of damage and devastating loss of life every year. A global team of researchers has provided help for those who work to predict landslides and risk evaluations.

Life experience and lessons from all of his mentors, many of whom were past recipients of the Eisenhart Award, made Salvaggio a teacher worthy of the accolade.

Planetary nebulae have been studied for centuries, but astronomers are getting new looks and a better understanding of the structures and compositions of these gaseous remnants of dying stars thanks to the ability to study objects at multiple wavelengths and dimensions.

WHEC-TV talks to Serena Flint, research engineer in the Chester F. Carlson Center for Imaging Science, about solar flares.

NASA features Julia Barsi '97, '00 MS (imaging science).

Flip Phillips, professor of motion picture science, shared a Milestone Award from the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers for his hand in creating RenderMan, Pixar’s revolutionary software still used today to create the iconic animation look of classic films.

The low-cost multispectral imaging system MISHA, or the Multispectral Imaging System for Historical Artifacts, was developed by RIT experts to uncover object details that aren’t visible to the naked eye.
