Show Topic
New measurement techniques combined with recent acoustics research enable us to make violin‐type instruments in all frequency ranges with the properties built into the violin itself by the masters of three centuries ago. Thus for the first time we have a whole family of instruments made according to a consistent acoustical theory. Beyond a doubt they are musically successful.

Dust‐cloud moons of the earth

J. Wesley Simpson

The scientist whose name has become associated with a class of electrostatic generators used throughout the world has continued to develop improved accelerator designs and to pursue his early ambition of fusing heavy elements.

New foundations for quantum physics

Alfred Landé
OpenURL
Show Topic
Attempts to understand better the basic principles of quantum physics continue. Because of the epistemological problems involved, the process is often controversial. The present article attempts to derive quantum mechanics from simple nonquantal postulates.
