His appreciation of human wit and heroism in the face of pain and loss, and his faith in redemptive powers of love endow his dances with their originality and dramatic power. Donald McKayle has created a repertory of American dance that instructs the heart. -Inscription on Samuel H.

Scripps/American Dance Festival WAward, “established to honor the great choreographers who have dedicated their lives and talent to the creation of our modern dance heritage,” in 1992. The “Sammy” was awarded to McKayle for a lifetime of performing, teaching and creating American modern dance, an “infinite journey” of both creativity and teaching. Infinite Journey is the title of a concert dance piece McKayle created in 1991 to honor the life of a former student; the title also befits McKayle’s own life. McKayle began his career in New York City, initially studying dance with the New Dance Group and later dancing professionally for noted choreographers such as Merce Cunningham, Martha Graham, Sophie Maslow, and Anna Sokolow.

  • Behaviour of Total and Elastic Cross-Sections at Very High Energies
    CERN-TH.7437/94 9 OCR Output CERN—TH-7437-94 BEHAVIOUR OF TOTAL AND ELASTIC CROSS-SECTIONS AT VERY HIGH ENERGIES Tai '1`sun WU Gordon McKay Laboratory, Harvard University, Cambridge, MA 02138, USA and Theoretical Physics Division, CERN CH - 1211 Geneva 23 CERN-TH.7437/94 September 1994 BEHAVIOR OF TOTAL AND ELASTIC CROSS SECTIONS AT VERY HIGH ENERGIES TAI TSUN WU Gordon McKay Laboratory Harvard University Cambridge, MA 02138, USA, and Theoretical Physics Division, CERM Geneva, Switzerland 1. Introduction In this talk, I would like to present an overview of the original theoretical prediction of the increasing total cross section on the basis of gauge quantum field theory, phenomeno logical predictions from this theoretical understanding, comparison with later experimental data, and expected future data from HER.A. The discussion will be limited to elastic scattering, since it is the simplest scattering process. Through the optical theorem, the total cross section—which gives the overall strength of the scattering process———is proportional to the imaginary part of the elastic scattering amplitude in the forward direction. Therefore, the theoretical understanding of elastic scattering is often of primary importance. Some of these developments can be found in an excellent book by Herbert Fried, the organizer of this workshop: Herbert M. Fried, Fhnctional Methods and Eikonal Models, Editions Frontieres (1990). A few years earlier, Hung Cheng and I also wrote a book on this subject: Hung Cheng and Tai Tsun Wu, Expanding Protons: Scattering at High Energies, The MIT Press (1987). A recent topic of current interest, of course not covered in either of these books which are a few years old, is the data from the electron-proton colliding accelerator HQERA at DESY, Hamburg, Germany.

    July 30, 2018 7:30 Brief history for the search and discovery of the Higgs particle – A personal perspective Sau Lan Wu Department of Physics, University of Wisconsin, Madison, WI 53706, USA [email protected] In 1964, a new particle was proposed by several groups to answer the question of where the masses of elementary particles come from; this particle is usually referred to as the Higgs particle or the Higgs boson. In July 2012, this Higgs particle was finally found experimentally, a feat accomplished by the ATLAS Collaboration and the CMS Col- laboration using the Large Hadron Collider at CERN. It is the purpose of this review to give my personal perspective on a brief history of the experimental search for this particle since the ’80s and finally its discovery in 2012. Besides the early searches, those at the LEP collider at CERN, the Tevatron Collider at Fermilab, and the Large Hadron Collider at CERN are described in some detail. This experimental discovery of the Higgs boson is often considered to be the most important advance in particle physics in the last half a century, and some of the possible implications are briefly discussed. This review is partially based on a talk presented by the author at the conference “Higgs Quo Vadis,” Aspen Center for Physics, Aspen, CO, USA, March 10-15, 2013. Keywords: Higgs boson; standard model; Large Hadron Collider; Higgs discovery. PACS Nos.: 14.80.Bn, 13.85.-t, 13.66.Fg, 12.60.-i 1. Introduction 1.1.
