Dr. Fekete & Dr. Harrell Present at the APS March Meeting

Dr. Lee Harrell and Dr. Paula Fekete the Department of Physics and Nuclear Engineering (PaNE) participated in the 2018 APS March Meeting, the largest physics conference organized yearly in the USA. This year's meeting was held in Los Angeles, and brought together more than 11,000 physicists, scientists, and students from all over the world to share groundbreaking research from industry, universities, and major labs. Dr. Fekete presented her research on Impurity Screening by Graphene Monolayers under Uniaxial Strain and Dr. Harrell his research on A Unified Lagrangian Treatment of Charge and Cantilever Dynamics in Electric Force Microscopy. A favorite session to attend at the APS meeting, other than presentations in our own areas of expertise, is the Nobel Session entitled "Frontiers in Physics" which features most distinguished invited speakers, to include winners of the latest Physics Nobel Prize. One of the three Nobel laureates attended the session and gave a lecture on the progress made in detecting gravitational waves since Albert Einstein predicted those 100 years ago.
