The physics of planet formation is investigated using a population synthesis approach. We develop a simple model for planetary growth including pebble and gas accretion, as well as orbital migration ...

Join Carnegie Science researchers Robert M. Hazen and Michael L. Wong for a lively discussion about their proposed "second arrow of time"—a heretofore missing law of nature that explains how the ...

Registration Opens March 3, 2026 | Carnegie Science Vice President for Science Anat Shahar will describe her research into how water can form naturally during the earliest stages of a planet’s history ...

Carnegie Science astronomers and engineers are redefining how we observe the universe by designing and building custom instruments for the telescopes at our Las Campanas Observatory in the Chilean ...

A revolution is brewing in biology. Scientists are linking genomes to ecosystems in ways that cross disciplinary boundaries and define new fields of inquiry. Advances in biotechnology have shown that ...

Emil will talk about the microbial production of molecular oxygen (O2) in the absence of light and its relevance in apparently anoxic natural environments. Together with international collaborators he ...

For 123 years, Carnegie Science researchers have had the freedom and flexibility to pursue bold, potentially transformative ideas. Their work has reshaped our understanding of life, our planet, and ...

Today, Carnegie Science celebrates its second annual Carnegie Science Day, a commemoration of the institution’s inaugural Board of Trustees meeting on January 29, 1902 and a celebration of its ...

The social cost of carbon (SCC) is a commonly employed metric of the expected economic damages from carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions. Although useful in an optimal policy context, a world-level approach ...

Every year since Carnegie's founding in 1902, the institution has published a selection of its discoveries in an annual Year Book. Over time, this annual report evolved from a complete record of ...

The Drosophila Gateway™ Vector collection is a set of 68 Gateway-based vectors designed to express epitope-tagged proteins in Drosophila culture cells or flies. At its core is Invitrogen's Gateway™ ...

m We report the first detailed chemical abundances for five globular clusters (GCs) in M31 from high-resolution (R similar to 25,000) spectroscopy of their integrated light (IL). These GCs are the ...
