This year, there is a competition for the best student presentation at the 53rd MMM Conference
in Austin to recognize and to encourage excellence in graduate studies in the field of magnetism. This award is
available to any full time graduate student who is expected to graduate within one year of the Conference. The
student's area of research may either be theoretical or experimental in any of the general technical and
scientific areas normally presented as part of the Conference. This award consists of a one-year fellowship of
$1000 for the award winner and a one-year fellowship of $250 to each of the remaining finalists. The students
listed below are the finalists for the 53rd MMM Conference:
AF-06
Sara Jean Gamble, "Modification of the Electronic Structure of a Ferromagnet in Extreme Terahertz Fields",
BE-05
Lihui Zhou, "Oscillatory magnetic exchange coupling at the atomic level: a direct real-space study by a
sub-Kelvin spin-polarized STM",
HE-14
Joanna S. Bettinger, "Room Temperature Photo-Induced Magnetization of Spinel (Mn,Zn,Fe)3O4 Thin Films",
AB-08
Ioan Mihai Miron, "The domain wall spin torque-meter",
GF-04
Chunsheng Liu, "Calculation of intrinsic damping in half metals",
GB-09
Li Gao, "Spin transfer induced microwave emission in MgO based magnetic tunnel junctions",
Their extended abstracts will be posted during the conference.
