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.

The Spring 2017 Department of Physics, Graduation and Award Ceremony was held on Friday, May 12. Please join us in congratulating this year's physics outstanding faculty, staff, and student award winners.
Our faculty award winners are:
As the transistors in computers get smaller and denser to allow for more computing power, the energy demands of computing are growing rapidly. Because of their increasingly volatile nature as they scale down in size, transistors become even more power hungry. The future of computing will require a new solution for the storage and processing of data that does not out pace our energy supply.
Bruce Barrett has contributed forty seven years of Nuclear Physics at the University of Arizona. We would like to invite everyone to congratulate Professor Barrett on his many great accomplishments throughout his career by attending his retirement event. The afternoon will consist of symposiums, guest speakers, and a reception at the ENR2 rooftop.
We would like to congratulate Arvinder Sandhu, Associate Professor of Physics, for being selected for the University of Arizona's 2017 Distinguished Scholar Award.
This is a high honor that recognizes outstanding mid-career faculty who are leading experts in their fields and highly valued contributors to the teaching, research and outreach priorities set out in the University's Strategic Plan, never settle.
