Facilities:  The faculty in the Physics Department are active members of the Canadian Foundation for Innovation (CFI) funded Centre for Food and Soft Material Science, the Shared Hierarchical Academic Research Computing Network SHARC-Net) and the National Proton Microprobe Facility for Environmental Analysis. Associated with these centres there will be an infusion of new equipment including 500 and 600 MHz NMR spectrometers, a modern proton accelerator, scanning probe microscopes, an X-ray generator and a 500 node Beowulf supercomputer cluster. Guelph faculty members collaborate with many off-campus research facilities, including the Neutron Beam Facility at Chalk River, the Sudbury Neutrino Observatory (SNO) and the TRIUMF particle and nuclear physics facility.
