             Dr. Sullivan Lands at the 
              South Pole 
            Dr. Gregory W. Sullivan, 
              Associate Professor of Physics recently arrived at the South Pole. 
              He is leading the UM Physics' Particle Astrophysics research group 
              in a new research direction with the new "IceCube" experiment. 
              Building on the success they have had with neutrinos over the past 
              seven years, the experiment is designed to observe very high energy 
              neutrino interactions 2km under the Antarctic ice at the South Pole. 
              Dr. Sullivan will be at the pole for the next few weeks to help 
              get this new endeavor underway. 
            Dr. Sullivan was recently 
              highlighted in "The Photon", the department's online newsletter.
