Research presentations and publications
* David Craig presented a research talk on "Decoherence and the uncertainty principle" at the 18th International Conference on General Relativity and Gravitation in Sydney, Australia in July. This work, aimed at achieving a deeper understanding of the relationship between classical and quantum physics, includes results obtained in collaboration with 2007 physics graduate Adam Lemke. The research was also presented earlier in the summer at the 10th Eastern Gravity Meeting at Cornell, where Lemke also gave a talk on his portion of the work.
* Dr. Craig has had an article published in the Journal of Physics A this year: David Craig, Fay Dowker, Joe Henson, Seth Major, David Rideout and Rafael D Sorkin, "A Bell inequality analog in quantum measure theory," J. Phys. A 40, 501-523
* Dr. Kyrkos has had three papers published in 2007:
o Peter Hartmann, Zoltan Donko, Pradip M. Bakshi, Gabor J. Kalman, and Stamatios Kyrkos, "Molecular Dynamics Studies of Solid-Liquid Phase Transition in 2-D Yukawa Systems," IEEE Trans. Plasma Sci. 35, 332 (2007)
