In Memorium: Huan Tran (1974-2009)

In December 2009, the POLARBEAR project manager Huan Tran

died in an tragic domestic accident while on a trip to work on the

telescope.

We are all greatly saddened. We lost a great leader, scientist, and

friend. Huan was involved in every design aspect of the experiment

and was deeply dedicated to the project.

The telescope has now been renamed the Huan Tran Telescope (HTT)

in his honor.

We miss him greatly.
