September 5 Please join us in congratulating Dr. Xiaofeng Wang, from Shandong University, who recently successfully defended her Ph.D. thesis, called "The study of γγ → e+e− process in peripheral Au+Au collisions at RHIC”. Her co-advisors were Profs. Zhangbu Xu, Chi Yang, and Daniel Brandenburg. Xiaofeng will continue as a postdoc at OSU. Congratulations, Dr. Wang, and many thanks, Zhangbu, Chi, and Daniel for your continued support in mentoring the next generation of physicists!August 12 Renee Fatemi has kindly agreed to be the inaugural chair of the STAR Early Career Awards Committee. Once per year, the committee will call for nominations and select awardees. We will honor them at a dedicated Award Ceremony during the Fall/Winter Collaboration Meeting. We want to thank Renee and the committee members Helen Caines, JH Lee, and Jerome Lauret for serving on this committee and look forward to recognizing the important work that many do for our collaboration! June 20 Please join us in congratulating Dr. Ziyang Li and Dr. Kaifeng Shen, both from USTC, who recently successfully defended their Ph.D. theses. - Dr. Ziyang Li’s thesis was titled "Study of very low pT J/psi production in Au+Au collisions at 200 GeV with STAR experiment” - Dr. Kaifeng Shen’s thesis was titled "Measurements of e+e- and J/psi production in heavy-ion collisions at RHIC” Their co-advisors were Prof. Zebo Tang, Prof. Wangmei Zha, and Dr. Rongrong Ma. We wish them both all the best in their future careers! Congratulations, Dr. Li and Dr. Shen, and many thanks, Zebo, Wangmei, and Rongrong, for your continued support in mentoring the next generation of physicists.May 28 Please join us in congratulating Dr. YingYing Shi, Dr. Yike Xu, and Dr. Yi Yu from Shandong University, who have all successfully defended their Ph.D. theses on May 22, 2024: - YingYing Shi’s PhD thesis is titled "R&D of Forward sTGC Tracker at RHIC-STAR” and was supervised by Prof. Chi Yang; - Yike Xu’s PhD thesis is titled "Measurement of Transverse Single Spin Asymmetry of Hardron and Transverse Polarization Transfer of in Proton Proton Collisions at RHIC-STAR” and was supervised by Prof. Qinghua Xu; - Yi Yu’s PhD thesis is titled "Measurements of Longitudinal Double Spin Asymmetry and Spin Transfer in Polarized Proton-Proton Collisions at RHIC-STAR” and was supervised by Prof. Qinghua Xu. All three are looking for jobs in multiple fields, including a postdoc position (Yi Yu). Congratulations, Dr. Shi, Dr. Xu, and Dr. Yu! Many thanks, Chi and Qinghua, for your continued support in mentoring the next generation of physicists.May 18
