Physics in Red China

OpenURL
Show Topic
The following article has been reprinted in full from the October issue of the Chinese Communist journal Scientia Sinica (Vol. 8, No. 10, 1959) where it appeared under the title “Ten Years' Development of Physics in China”. Those listed as joint authors are Chang Chih‐san, Huang Kun, Maa Dah‐you, Shih Ju‐wei, Tsien Ling‐chao, Wang Jwu‐shi, Wang Shou‐wu, and Woo Yu‐hsun. Scientia Sinica is published monthly in English by the Academia Sinica in Peking, with T. C. Yun as the chairman of its editorial committee. This journal, which covers other sciences as well, is in its eighth year and is currently publishing about 1400 pages per year, of which 250 or more are devoted to physics. The total number of scientific publications in Communist China (there are now some 450) is reported to have increased 500% over the past five years. Publication is largely the affair of the Academy, which in organization is understood to have been patterned after the Soviet Academy of Sciences.
