乔治城大学物理专业科研

Our faculty collaborate with unergrauate stuents, grauate stuents, postoctoral fellows, an visiting scholars from all over the worl. As part of training new generations of researchers, we provie a strong framework for interisciplinary initiatives an partnerships with government an inustry. Our community of researchers engage in experimental an theoretical research on Conense Matter Physics, a broa fiel of physics that eals with the macroscopic an microscopic physical properties of matter. It attempts to unerstan the properties of matter from funamental physical principles an is by far the largest fiel of contemporary physics. We invite you to fin out more about the activities of our epartment by exploring the links provie on this page. Experimental Conense Matter Physics
