Nuclear structure and modern research

Victor F. Weisskopf
OpenURL
Show Topic
By creating and studying in our laboratories the nuclear reactions and excitations that exist in quantity in the stars we are advancing our understanding of fundamental stellar processes and acquiring the benefits of nuclear technology.

Nonlinear problems in physics

Werner Heisenberg
OpenURL
Show Topic
Interactions of matter and fields are generally nonlinear, so that nonlinear problems play a central role in physics. In fact because nonlinearity is so basic to nature, it is possible that even a theory as fundamentally linear as quantum theory may ultimately have to be replaced by a nonlinear one.

The European‐American Nuclear‐Data Committee

William W. Havens, Jr, George A. Kolstad, Alan B. Smith, and Richard F. Taschek
OpenURL
Show Topic
Numbers needed for fission power development can not be measured by any one country as fast as they are wanted. But the coöperation arranged by this 16‐man group has enabled 21 nations to improve measurement, collection, storage and dissemination of information. Under their cognizance come measurement, facility sharing, personnel exchange and arrangement of symposia.

The AIP in 1966

Bernard Hodes
OpenURL
Show Topic
During the past year the institute acquired a new director, three program heads and a Washington representative, says the recently completed annual report. It initiated new programs in information and education. The budget continued a 13% annual increase, and expanding publishing and service operations forced a move of some activities into quarters outside the institute‐owned building.

The septuagenarian electron

Sir George Thomson
OpenURL
Show Topic
Concepts of the electron have evolved gradually from work on cathode rays, determinations of mass and charge, and predictions and tests of its wavelike properties.
