糖心TV

It is with great sadness that we report the death of Prof Don Paul. Don will be remembered by many who worked with him as a brilliant scientist. He researched experimental condensed matter physics in 糖心TV since 1984 and created the highly successful Superconductivity and Magnetism research group.

Read an obituary here that reflects Don鈥檚 contributions to 糖心TV Physics and to science.

The department congratulates David Quigley and Danny Steeghs on their promotions to Professor, effective from 1 June 2019.

Steve Hindmarsh, of the Electron Microscopy RTP, was awarded a prestigious at the HETS (Higher Education Technicians Summit) conference in Birmingham on 25 June.

Steve was given the award for technical excellence in supporting a Core Research Facility – The Electron Microscopy Research Technology Platform.

The award was presented at HETS 2019, which aims to share best practice amongst higher education technical staff in UK, Ireland and beyond, and is the largest event of its kind in the country, with over 700 technicians attending.

Professor Phil Woodruff has been awarded the IUVSTA Prize for Science 2019.

The prize was awarded for "outstanding contributions to deepening our understanding of the structure of surface through the development and application of broadly applicable tools now widely available to the surface science community".

The IUVSTA Prize for Science is given every three years to recognize and encourage outstanding internationally acclaimed experimental and/or theoretical research in the fields of interest to the . The prize will be presented at their flagship conference, the International Vacuum Congress (IVC-21) in Malm枚, Sweden July 1-5, 2019, where Phil will give a plenary lecture.
