Snow to cyanide: The many research applications of mass spectrometers
Ancient snow and ice from the coldest places on Earth can provide insight into our past, current and future climate. Jihong Cole-Dai, a professor in the Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry at South Dakota State University, has traveled to the coldest and most remote locations in the world to collect snow and ice core samples.
Physics students make most of research opportunity
For South Dakota State University physics majors Gavin Baker and Jax Wysong, it is undergraduate research that has set them apart from their contemporaries. In March, they shared their undergraduate research with those gathered at the mass meeting of the American Physical Society in Las Vegas. It is an international gathering with more than 10,000 participants.
