2. ALADDIN LAMP AWARD WINNERS

This year we have two winners of the Aladdin Lamp Award for the most impressive thesis work performed at the SRC. The recipients are:

Gey-Hong Gweon (University of Michigan) for:
"Angle resolved photoemission study of the electronic structure of low dimensional materials"
Advisor: Prof. James W. Allen

Markus Schwickert (Ohio University) for:
"Studies of linear dichroism in absorption"
Advisor: Prof. Gerald R. Harp

They will give an overview of their work at the Users Meeting.

Congratulations!

3. LAST CHANCE FOR INPUT ON NEW INSTRUMENTATION AT THE SRC

Users and staff will get together during the Users Meeting to finalize the plans for important new intrumentation at the SRC. Among the items are:

- A new undulator (the last straight section not yet committed).
This will be a topic of the Users Advisory Committee Meeting Oct. 22.

- A 3 K cryostat, plus a sample chamber with transfer for the user chamber attached to the Scienta analyzer. It will be discussd in one of the lunchtime working groups on Friday Oct. 23. If you can't be there send your suggestions to Franz Himpsel ( %68%69%6D%70%73%65%6C@comb.physics.wisc.edu ) before the meeting.

4. SRC BROCHURE

A new color brochure highlighting the broad range of science and technology covered by the SRC is in print and will be available at the Users Meeting.
