sPHENIX is a new detector at RHIC.

[David Morrison <dave AT bnl.gov>]

Dear collaborators,

We’re grateful to the collaboration for electing us co-spokespersons!  We 
take this responsibility very seriously, of course, but we also see it as an 
exciting opportunity for us all to work together to realize a program of 
really outstanding physics.  There’s a lot to do to get the scientific 
collaboration completely up and running, and we will be talking quite a bit 
with each of you as we start down that path.  As always, your advice and 
input is very welcome.

Our thanks also to John Harris, Huan Huang and Bill Zajc for conducting the 
election.

Here’s to a productive future together!

Regards,
Gunther and Dave
