TWO DUBLIN students have been awarded a European young scientist prize for their mathematical project that could be of value to Nasa.
Mark Kelly and Eric Doyle from Synge Street CBS, Dublin, were announced as winners of the first prize in physics at the European Union Contest for Young Scientists in Bratislava, Slovakia, yesterday.
The winning project, Simulation Accuracy in the Gravitational Many-body Problem, included a way to help keep satellites more closely on their expected path.
Ireland has out-performed all other countries in the EU competition’s 24-year history, taking home the top prize 14 times.
