There will be a Physics Department reception at 11:30 AM.
Congratulations to John Kelley and Ron Tilley! Their paper published in the September 23 issue of "Nuclear Physics A" has been recognized as one of the top 10 most downloaded papers in that journal between the months of April-September. The paper is:
"Energy levels of light nuclei A=5, 6, 7" D. R. Tilley, C. M. Cheves, J. L. Godwin, G. M. Hale, H. M. Hofmann, J. H. Kelley, C. G. Sheu and H. R. Weller. Nucl.Phys. A 708, (2002), pp 3-163.

Alumni News:
Congratulations to Troy Carter (BS Physics, BS Nuclear Engineering, NC State, 1995), named as a co-recipient of the 2002 American Physical Society Award for Excellence in Plasma Physics Research.
The citation reads: "For the experimental investigation of driven magnetic reconnection in a laboratory plasma. In this work, careful diagnostic studies of the current sheet structure, dynamics and associated wave activity provide a comprehensive picture of the reconnection process."
Troy is currently at the University of California, Los Angeles.
