Finally! The arrival of the tank for the new LENA Singletron at TUNL (on Duke's Campus). Art Champagne (UNC Physics Professor) wonders if it will fit through the doors. Spoiler Alert: it did

Lillian Pierce, a mathematician at Duke University, investigates the properties of integers and functions, and the interplay between the two. In recent years, she has found value in explaining established proofs “in a way that everybody could understand.” https://t.co/2gWysxjM0k

TUNL Receives $1.5 Million Department of Energy Award for new injector system to upgrade the tandem Van de Graaff accelerator that was installed 54 years ago. The original cost in 1968 was $60k, and was the largest item that could be shipped by rail!

Harvesting the first test batch of 42Ar, that we produced at TUNLs tandem this weekend. This will be used to spike cryogenic Ar and study backgrounds for the LEGEND double beta decay experiment. @FirstGenPhys @_TUNL_ @LEGEND_Science

TUNL REU projects in action
More Science! In this case, building a Cherenkov detector out of lead-glass, to (maybe) look at neutrino interactions at the SNS. Fun undergraduate REU project for the summer. @COHERENT_NUS
