Extractions: E-mail address: peakd@cc.usu.edu Prior to coming to Utah State in 1994, Dr. Peak had taught for twenty years at Union College, a private liberal arts college in upstate New York. There he was the Frank and Marie Louise Bailey Professor of Physics. His other academic and research positions include Research Associate at Princeton University, Visiting Scientist at Argonne National Laboratory, Faculty Research Associate at NASA Goddard Spaceflight Center, and the E. Clairborne Robins Distinguished University Professor in Science at Richmond University. Long an advocate for research done by undergraduates, Peak was a founding member of the Council on Undergraduate Research and a charter member of the Governing Board of the National Conferences on Undergraduate Research. Among his activities at USU, he is co-director of the University's Get Away Special Program and its NSF-REU program in Nonlinear Dynamics. His refereed publications include 12 undergraduate co-authors. For his research accomplishments at Union, Peak was awarded the 1996 American Physical Society's Prize for Research by a Faculty Member at an Undergraduate Institution.

Extractions: Princeton University High Energy Theory Group Home Page Michael Bershadsky is working on various aspects of string theory and four dimensional supersymmetric field theories. Specifically he is interested in non-perturbative string dynamics. Recently various aspects of nonperturbative string dynamics become accessible by means of D-branes technique. In the limit when D-branes coincide one gets an enhanced U(n) gauge symmetry in the world volume of D-brane. With two sets of n and m parallel D-branes one gets U(n) x U(m) plus matter in (n,m) representation. The D-brane technique also appears to be extremely useful in getting insights into four dimensional supersymmetric field theories. For example, the Olive-Montano duality (Electric- Magnetic duality), solution of N=2 supersymmetric field theories and the famous Seiberg's duality of N=1 gauge field theories can be traced back to various properties of D-brane configurations. In the coming future Michael Bershadsky is planning to continue his research on non- perturbative dynamics of string theory. Planned research includes continuing studies of F- theory compactifications and M(Matrix) theory.

In the the years 1998-2003 18 undergraduates have appeared as co-authors with Physics Department faculty members on articles published in scientific journals (or articles submitted for publication). During the same period 22 additional papers with undergraduate co-authors have been presented at national meetings of the American Physical Society and the American Astronomical Society, often with students attending the meeting and delivering the presentation. Some of the research on which these papers is based was conducted during special summer research programs, while some was done during the academic year (see below).

Experimental measurements in high Z ionic systems are motivated by the desire to test QED corrections in atomic theory. Precision measurements of forbidden transitions strengths, hyperfine structure, and atomic lifetimes test many-body calculations important to the interpretation of parity nonconservation (PNC) in atoms and atomic structure in general.

These are treated quantitatively with an emphasis on problem solving. The laboratory is intended to give students an opportunity to observe physical phenomena and to gain "hands-on" experience with apparatus and instruments.

Course Web Page PHY 106 Spring '01 Advanced Physics (Electromagnetism) We shall study electricity and magnetism, with special emphasis on the unification of these forces through the theory of special relativity. Subject matter is similar to that of Physics104, but the treatment is more sophisticated. There will be application to physical optics and electromagnetic behavior of materials.

Extractions: Professor D G Blair, Dr Ju Li, Dr Eugene Ivanov, Professor Michael Tobar When stars collapse to form neutron stars or black holes they emit pulses of gravitational radiation. In spite of the very large energy involved, this radiation has not yet been directly observed. Detectors are being developed at centres in Europe, USA, China, Japan and at our laboratory in Western Australia. Coincidence correlation of signals in antennas widely spaced round the world will permit discrimination against local disturbances and enable the source direction to be determined. A southern hemisphere station is needed to obtain good resolution. Gravitational radiation interacts extremely weakly with normal matter and the signals, which are expected to be extremely feeble, will be at the very limits of detectability. For example, our 1.5 tonne niobium bar operated at 4K is able to detect amplitudes of vibration as small as 10 metres! At such small amplitudes quantum effects play a significant role, and both the quantum mechanics and the classical aspects of noise and measurement theory are active areas of research. Others include design and development of ultra-low noise microwave amplifiers; sapphire and superconducting resonators for accurate clocks and phase noise minimisation; data acquisition, optimal filters and signal extraction; acoustic losses in materials at very low temperatures. As well, our theoretical work includes a study of the lifetime, birthrate and galactic population of active collapsed objects. Other projects are involved with the establishment of a laser interferometer gravitational observatory.

Extractions: The quantisation of chaotic systems based on the Gutzwiller trace formula requires to take all periodic orbits of the classical system into account. For the example of the truncated hyperbola billiard it is shown in [9] that in certain systems nonperiodic orbits yield important contributions to the quantum mechanical density of states. The truncated hyperbola billiard is being studied experimentally by A. Richter et al. in Darmstadt. In cooperation with the experimental physicists, a comparison between theory and experiment is currently being made. [2] Aurich, R., Bolte, J., Steiner, F.: Universal Signatures of Quantum Chaos.

Extractions: To: Physics students (sophomores, juniors, and seniors) Date: September 12, 2001 From Joel Weisberg Re: Ideas for special projects (Listed in the catalog as Physics 356 or Astronomy 356, Special Projects.) Fall term is a good time to engage in these projects. We highly recommend that you do one. If you do, you will learn something about actually doing Physics and Astronomy research, which will help guide you in decisions about "life after Carleton." Please note that special projects are offered only on a S/Cr/NC basis, since it is very difficult to assign grades to independent and cooperative projects. They are for 2 or 3 credits and, starting this academic year, you will need to complete a special project form that will get deposited with the registrar. The form is available on the department web site or you can pickup a copy from Ann Passe, Olin 331. Nelson Christensen: Gravitational Radiation Detection with the Laser Interferometric Gravitational Wave Observatory (LIGO) I am looking for up to two students to work on C-programs to be used by LIGO.
