Queen's 카지노게임사이트 physics researchers Stephen Hughes and Anthony Noble, and their Canada Foundation for Innovation (CFI) collaborators, were awarded a combined $4.8 million in funding from the CFI Innovation Fund.

Dr. Noble카지노 게임 컬렉션�s team is building a next generation detector, PICO 500L, that will search for dark matter while Dr. Hughes and his CFI collaborators, including co-lead James Fraser, will establish a Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션�s Nanophotonics Research Centre to explore the behaviour of light and light-matter interactions on the nanometre scale.

The funding was announced by the Honourable Kirsty Duncan, Minister of Science, as part of a CFI investment of more than $554 million in 117 new infrastructure projects at 61 universities, colleges, and research hospitals across Canada.

카지노 게임 컬렉션�This funding is critical to ensuring Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션�s researchers are competitive on the global stage and have the tools necessary to continue their innovative research and technology development,카지노 게임 컬렉션� says John Fisher, Interim Vice-Principal (Research). 카지노 게임 컬렉션�As one of the top-ranked research-intensive universities in Canada where physics is an area of institutional research strength, Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션�s will benefit greatly from this investment.카지노 게임 컬렉션�

According to Dr. Hughes, photonics is the science of generating, controlling, and detecting the fundamental particles of light (photons), and is now poised to be a key technological driver of the 21st century in much the same way that electronics were for the 20th century.

카지노 게임 컬렉션�However, as devices and optical structures continue to shrink, we have started to enter a new realm of optical technology termed 'nanophotonics,' wherein the behaviour of light on the nanometre scale, and of the interaction of nanometre-scale objects with light, is substantially different,카지노 게임 컬렉션� explains Dr. Hughes. 카지노 게임 컬렉션�We propose to explore and exploit the optical science that will underpin next-generation nano and quantum optical technologies, while unlocking entirely new regimes of light-matter interaction.카지노 게임 컬렉션�

The PICO 500L detector will be located at the SNOLAB facility for astroparticle physics, located two kilometres underground in Sudbury.

카지노 게임 컬렉션�Building on prior success, the international collaboration has embarked on a program to build a next generation detector,카지노 게임 컬렉션� says Dr. Noble, who is also director of the Canada Particle Astrophysics Research Centre. 카지노 게임 컬렉션�This detector, PICO 500L, will employ a unique technology that will give it world-leading sensitivity in the search for the mysterious dark matter, which is known to pervade the Universe but has yet to be observed unambiguously on earth.카지노 게임 컬렉션�
