<p>JILA was founded as a joint institute between the �Ͼ�Ʒ�� and the National Institute of Standards and Technology in 1962 and will celebrate its 50th anniversary this year. It is located on the CU-Boulder campus.</p>
<p>The new X-wing provides advanced laboratories that will support JILA's next 50 years of research breakthroughs, and further encourage training and interdisciplinary research. Like JILA overall, the X-wing is a collaboration between CU and NIST, with each organization sharing in the costs of the $32.7 million building.</p>

<p>�Ͼ�Ʒ�� students will have another four years at the controls of NASA Kepler mission, launched in 2009 to hunt down Earth-like rocky planets in other solar systems and which has succeeded in spectacular fashion.</p>

<p>NIST news release</p>
<p>Physicists at JILA have demonstrated a novel “superradiant” laser design, which has the potential to be 100 to 1,000 times more stable than the best conventional visible lasers. This type of laser could boost the performance of the most advanced atomic clocks and related technologies, such as communications and navigation systems as well as space-based astronomical instruments. </p>

<p>The work of a talented group of �Ͼ�Ʒ�� students and staff has made it to the big screen. The really big screen -- in fact, a more than 20-meter dome.</p>

<p>ColdQuanta Inc. of Boulder and the University of Colorado have finalized an agreement allowing ColdQuanta to commercialize cutting-edge physics research developed by CU-Boulder and SRI International. The licensed technology centers on Bose-Einstein Condensate, or BEC, a new form of matter created just above absolute zero. </p>

<p>The work of a talented group of �Ͼ�Ʒ�� students and staff will be making it to the big screen this weekend. The really big screen -- in fact, a more than 20-meter dome.</p>

<p>Johns Hopkins University Professor Adam Riess, who shared the 2011 Nobel Prize in physics for uncovering evidence that the universe is expanding, will give the 2012 George Gamow Memorial Lecture at the �Ͼ�Ʒ�� on Thursday, March 22.</p>
<p>Free and open to the public, the talk is titled “Supernovae and the Discovery of the Accelerating Universe.”  The talk will be held at 7:30 p.m. in Macky Auditorium and is intended for a general audience.</p>

<p>Using the world fastest light source -- specialized X-ray lasers -- scientists at the �Ͼ�Ʒ�� and the National Institute of Standards and Technology have revealed the secret inner life of magnets, a finding that could lead to faster and “smarter” computers.</p>

<p>Four �Ͼ�Ʒ�� faculty members have been elected American Geophysical Union Fellows for 2012, the most from any institution in the world.</p>

<p>An astronomy team led by the �Ͼ�Ʒ�� using NASA Hubble Space Telescope has zeroed in on <a href="http://www.colorado.edu/news/releases/2012/01/10/cu-led-study-pinpoints-farthest-developing-galaxy-cluster-ever-found">a wild intergalactic construction project</a> -- a cluster of early galaxies just starting to assemble only 600 million years after the Big Bang.</p>
