Introducing: The John R Engel Undergraduate Lounge (PAS 268)

We are excited to announce the newly renovated John R Engel Undergraduate Student Lounge. Located in PAS 268, the lounge is the place to be for all Physics undergraduates looking to study, relax, work in-between classes, or just socialize with their fellow majors. Stop on by and take in the new atmosphere!

We would also like to once again thank John Engel for his continued support of the physics department. This would not have been possible without your help.

Physics Demo Display: Now Showing at the PAS Lobby

By: Ian Marsh & Alexis Cibrian

It is very common to take a STEM class and feel like nothing makes sense. There are hundreds of equations in existence, each more obscure than the last. If you’ve ever felt a similar exasperation, and are wondering what lies at the heart of physics, then we hope you’ll appreciate the department’s new Physics Demo display, found currently on exhibit in the lobby of the PAS building.

UA Alumnus Dr. David Sing named 35th Bloomberg Distinguished Professor

The Physics department would like to extend our congratulations to Dr. David Sing, a former student from our department. Dr. Sing, who is now a professor at Johns Hopkins University, is a renowned professor in the field of exoplanets, or planets which exist outside of our solar system. Dr. Sing is currently leading the Hubble Space Telescope's largest research program with regards to exoplanets. Using wavelengths from UV to infrared, this study will look to compare 20 known exoplanets.

UA Joins DUNE Collaboration

The University of Arizona scientists have recently joined the Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment (DUNE) collaboration. DUNE will be studying neutrinos and its antiparticle, antineutrinos, with the hope of answering the long-standing question of why the universe is matter dominated. DUNE will also be looking for neutrinos from core-collapse supernovae which will provide crucial information about the formation of neutron stars or black holes.

Radio Interview: Professor Charles Stafford

"Wake up Tucson it's your town, get up and get involved!" This is the introduction to Wake Up Tucson on 1030 KVOI, with Chris DeSimone, a local radio station bringing to light different topics in our community. Recently, Professor Stafford was invited to participate on this morning show, discussing various topics from his life history to his recent research. Listen to the podcast (credit: Wake Up Tucson 1030 KVOI)

Electrical Control of Magnetism

Most computers use magnetic hard disks to store data. Each bit of information, either "0" or "1", is recorded on magnetic thin films in hard disks. A University of Arizona-led team of physicists has demonstrated an efficient way to control similar magnetic thin films by electric fields.

Watching an Electron at the Molecular Crossroads

Many fundamental processes in nature (e.g. photosynthesis, catalysis, metabolism) result from the complex motion of an electron through the potential energy landscape defined by the atomic positions inside the molecule. Prof. Arvinder Sandhu along with graduate student Henry Timmers used extreme ultraviolet, attosecond light bursts to strobe the motion of an electron in a polyatomic molecule and film its coherent evolution near a conical intersection.
