Physics Graduate Student Association - University of Mississippi The Physics Graduate Students Association (PGSA) of the University of Mississippi provides a common

The Physics Graduate Students Association (PGSA) of the University of Mississippi provides a common platform for all the graduate students in Physics & Astronomy Department. We are a student-led, student-run organization at the University of Mississippi intended to enhance the welcoming atmosphere for graduate students who are learning and working at the Department of Physics & Astronomy to foster

close cooperation between students themselves and faculty, and to facilitate graduate student communication. We will be organizing monthly meetings with the emphasis of giving opportunity to our graduate students to express themselves, presenting their research work, matters related to academic as well as other matters that we can help out as the graduate student association. We also promote and supports the diversity and multicultural atmosphere to make PGSA a place for our students to get some relief after their hard-working time. We will also be conducting interdepartmental and outreach events, cooperating with student organizations of other schools, that our graduate students can enhance their leadership and organizational skills as well as to collect good values to our organization and the department of Physics & Astronomy.

Kennon Observatory was constructed in 1939 and consists of two copper-roofed domes.

In the larger dome is a refractor telescope purchased from the Sr. Howard Grubb Co. in 1893. It consists of 3 co-aligned visual and photographic telescopes; a fifteen-inch f/12 visual telescope, a nine-inch photographic telescope and a four-inch visual telescope.

The smaller dome currently houses a seventeen-inch f/6.8 Plane Wave, Corrected Dall-Kirkham (CDK) reflector telescope (purchased through the Ole Miss Astronomy Legacy Project) with an electronic CCD camera, the SBIG ST10 with an AO-7 adaptive optics accessory, attached Paramount ME.
