Dear friends,
Our beloved colleague and friend Professor Woei-Yann Pauchy Hwang died unexpectedly in Taipei on May 6, 2018. Pauchy was a nuclear physicist turned cosmologist. He was well known for his significant contributions in weak interaction physics and in promoting physics research and education in Taiwan and the Asia-Pacific region.
You are cordially invited to the memorial symposium organized by the department of physics of NTU on Dec. 1, 2018 to remember Pauchy. The tentative program is listed below. If you wish to speak in this event, please feel free to email Prof. Jiunn-Wei Chen (jwc@phys.ntu.edu.tw).
In addition to this event, Physics Today has an obituary of Pauchy. The 2018 International Symposium on Cosmology and Particle Astrophysics (CosPA 2018) in Yangzhou will have a memorial section for Pauchy. The CosPA 2019, scheduled to be held at NTU in Nov. 2019, will be dedicated to the memory of Pauchy as well.
Wish to see you all in the memorial symposium on Dec. 1.
Best Regards,
Yuan-Huei Chang, Jiunn-Wei Chen, Guang-Yu Guo, Xiao-Gang He, Wei-Shu Hou
