Press Releases

Physical Sciences Inc. (PSI) has been awarded a program from the U.S. Navy to develop an extremely compact broadband HPM source that delivers MW-level power with broad frequency and pulse width tuning.

Physical Sciences Inc. (PSI), has been awarded a contract from the Department of Energy (DOE) to develop a laser-based magneto-optical atomic polarization spectroscopy technique that is capable of quantifying Uranium-238 (U), Thorium-232 (Th), and Potassium (K) in clean materials – the dominant primordial isotopes contributing to a radiation background in underground rare-event nuclear physics experiments.

DARPA has selected eight teams to pioneer novel ways of designing and manufacturing large structures on orbit. Physical Sciences Inc. will develop continuous fabrication of regolith-derived, glass-ceramic mechanical structures for use in large-scale orbital applications.

Physical Sciences Inc (PSI), in collaboration Dartmouth College, and the Broad Institute of MIT and Harvard, has been awarded a research program from the National Institutes of Health (NIH) to develop and demonstrate a novel fluorescence neural imaging technology that enables high-speed recording of membrane potentials from multiple neurons.

Physical Sciences Inc (PSI) has been awarded a contract from Defense Threat Reduction Agency (DTRA) to develop the Network Fusion Radiation Analysis Tool (NFRAT) to address the need for an enhanced detection, localization and identification capability in support of sensitive site exploitation, perimeter monitoring and contamination avoidance operations.

Physical Sciences Inc (PSI) has been awarded a research program from the National Institute for Innovation Manufacturing Biopharmaceuticals (NIIMBL) to demonstrate the development of a thermostabilized coronavirus surrogate mRNA vaccine. This program is in collaboration with the University of Connecticut (UConn), The University of Massachusetts Lowell (UML), and Merck & Co., Inc.

Physical Sciences Inc has been awarded a research program from the Defense Threat Reduction Agency (DTRA) to develop a Compact Optical Fiber for Extreme Environments (COFFEE) sensor to measure fast, transient magnetic fields generated in military system components due to nuclear weapons effects (NWE) such as Internal Electromagnetic Pulse (IEMP) and System Generated EMP (SGEMP).

Physical Sciences Inc. (PSI) has been awarded a contract from the Missile Defense Agency (MDA) to develop an Ultra High Apparent Temperature Large Format Infrared Scene Projector (UHAT-LF-IRSP).

This UHAT-LF-IRSP will employ digital micromirror device (DMD) technology with structured quantum cascade laser (QCL) illumination, addressing MDA’s requirements for next generation scene projector capabilities to keep pace with evolving threats and associated threat detection sensors.

Physical Sciences Inc has been awarded a contract from the Missile Defense Agency (MDA) to leverage our extensive experience in infrared scene projector (IRSP) design and harsh environmental operability to create a radiation hardened, hybrid, foveated, infrared scene projector (Rad Hard HF-IRSP).

Physical Sciences Inc has been awarded a contract from the U S Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to validate an innovative combination of proven and emerging continuous quantitative methane flux measurement technologies that will help achieve the environmental benefits of reducing methane emissions.
