Two new faculty members to replace retirements

The device that Associate Professor of Physics Jonathan Levine is helping to build doesn’t reside down the hall from his office, or in the same state. It’s about 1,700 miles away.

They hope the instrument will travel on a mission to the moon or Mars, where it could help answer questions about the history of the solar system.
