what do you look for part one december 30 2012 i am a faculty member in a university physics department who finds himself periodically involved in faculty searches and hires how do i evaluate the curriculum vitae of an applicant for a tenure track position what do i look for and what are the red flags does it really boil down to counting first authored articles impact factor of journals where they were published citations invited talks or maybe places where and individuals by whom the applicant has been mentored as a student and postdoctoral associate do i even look at the research plan if

failure september 10 2012 in 2004 kim and chan kc carried out torsional oscillator to measurements of solid helium confined in porous vycor glass and found an abrupt drop in the resonant period below 200 mk the period drop was interpreted as probable experimental evidence of nonclassical rotational inertia ncri this experiment sparked considerable activities in the studies of superfluidity in solid helium read the rest of this entry tags life physics research science posted in life physics research science 6 comments mountain lion and stuff august 19 2012 between work and home i own eight
