Big Money For Small Stars

Big money is coming to campus for dwarf stars.

UW-Eau Claire is getting a big grant to look at the stars. Specifically, the school is getting a 526-thousand-dollar National Science Foundation grant to study white dwarf stars. Dr. William Wolf, an assistant professor of physics and astronomy at UW-Eau Claire, will lead a team this summer to do the research. The idea is to help map stars and use computer models that can run for almost anyone. The team will begin its work this summer.
