Starting around the middle of next month there will be major alteration work being carried out on the 4th floor in what is now Jon Duffy's area. The work is to accommodate new equipment for Chris McConville. Jon will be moving to 420 and 420A which will be made into 2 rooms.

As this major work is being carried out it has been decided that as part of the Estates Physics re-wiring scheme, the southern half of the 4th floor will be completely re-wired. The rooms affected are from 422 around to 443. The work is anticipated to be completed by July 31st. The rooms affected must be cleared as much as possible. Offices must be emptied of all belongings and furniture. It is understood that some research equipment may be impossible to move, this must be protected as much as possible. I will discuss in due course with the occupants of each room where they will be re-located to trying to minimise disruption to work.

Apologies for the inconvenience but I am afraid this work has to be carried out. Thanks, Bob Bridgland

"Ian Hughes' and Julie Staunton's paper 'Onset of magnetic order in strongly-correlated systems from ab initio electronic structure calculations: application to transition metal oxides' has been chosen by the Editorial Board and publishing team of the New Journal of Physics to be part of a special collection: the NJP Best of 2008. The Best of 2008 website, the list of selected articles and the pdf of the magazine can be found at:

The work was carried out with colleagues at STFC Daresbury, MPI Halle and Martin-Luther-Universitat Halle. Ian was awarded his PhD last year."

Due to work being carried out on up-grading the power supply, the Physics Building will be closed on Thursday 9^th April 2009.  As this is a normal working day, staff are requested to work from home where possible.  Please ensure that no meetings are arranged in the department that day, as there will be NO electricity. If for any reason this planned shutdown does not take place, staff will  be notified as soon as possible and be expected to attend for work as normal.  If you have subsequently already planned something on that day that prevents you attending work then you will be required to treat this as holiday (unless of course, it is work related).

In the recent research assessment 50% of the research submitted by the Warwick Department of Physics was judged to be internationally excellent or of internationally leading quality with 95% judged to have international standing. All 51 eligible academic staff were submitted in the exercise, an increase of 20 since the last assessment in 2001. Part of this major expansion has involved 2 new groups in astrophysics and particle physics being established.

Malcolm Cooper, Head of Department, said  "The RAE result is particularly gratifying and describes a vibrant and developing research community. Many of the new staff are at an early stage in their research careers and are developing their positions on the international stage. This endorsement of the Department's research quality bodes exceptionally well for the future of the Department." 

The Department's success has helped sustain the 91影视破解版's position as one of the UK's leading research universities, with Warwick ranked at 7th overall in the UK.
