Graduate Programs

Beginning in September of this year, the University of Hawaii will offer a PhD program in physics with special emphasis given to two general areas: high‐energy nuclear physics and astrogeophysics. The high‐energy program will enjoy a cooperative arrangement with the Lawrence Radiation Laboratory whereby bubble‐chamber and spark‐chamber experiments will be done at LRL and the results analyzed in Hawaii. The astrogeophysics program will consist of various experimental and theoretical studies in the physics of the upper atmosphere, including laboratory studies of photoexcitation and ionization processes and astrophysics. The laboratories and high‐altitude observatory of the Hawaii Institute of Geophysics will be available for these programs. Applications for admission in the coming academic year are now being accepted. Interested students should write to the Graduate School, University of Hawaii, Honolulu 14, Hawaii.
