Box 291, Russian Federation Abstract: Modern research in solar physics in Russia is a multifaceted endeavor, which includes multi-wavelength observations from the ground- and space-based instruments, extensive theoretical and numerical modeling studies, new instrument development, and cross-disciplinary and international research. The research is conducted at the research organizations under the auspices of the Russian Academy of Sciences and to a lesser extent, by the research groups at Universities. Here, we review the history of solar physics research in Russia, and provide an update on recent develop- ments. Qc Anita Publications. All rights reserved 1Introduction The research in solar physics in Russia and countries that until early 1990th were part of Soviet Union has strong historical roots. Thus, for example, there are historical records of naked eyed observations of sunspots through the haze of the forest ¿UHV in 1365 and 1371 (see [1]). The Novgorod Chronicles also contain a description of about 40 solar eclipses between 1064 and 1567 over the what is now a European part of Russia and the Northern Scandinavia.

Schawlow and Charles H. Townes, then at the Bell Telephone Laboratories in New Jersey. It represented an extension of the maser technique to the infrared and optical regions. This paper provided the blueprint for how to construct an optical maser, and it was Theodor H. Maiman [2] who in 1960 was the first to demonstrate coherent stimulated optical emission. The optical maser became known to a broader audience interested in popular science when Schawlow published an article in Scientific American in 1961 [3]. The name “optical maser” was initially used in technical literature, and also in Schawlow’s popular science article [3]. However, “optical maser” had already been replaced by “laser” (light amplification by stimulated emission of radiation) when the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences awarded the 1964 Nobel Prize in Physics to Townes, Nicolay G.

  • Walther Gerlach (1889–1979): Precision Physicist, Educator and Research Organizer, Historian of Science
    Chapter 8 Walther Gerlach (1889–1979): Precision Physicist, Educator and Research Organizer, Historian of Science Josef Georg Huber, Horst Schmidt-Böcking, and Bretislav Friedrich Abstract Walther Gerlach’s numerous contributions to physics include precision measurements related to the black-body radiation (1912–1916) as well as the first- ever quantitative measurement of the radiation pressure (1923), apart from his key role in the epochal Stern-Gerlach experiment (1921–1922). His wide-ranging research programs at the Universities of Tübingen, Frankfurt, and Munich entailed spectroscopy and spectral analysis, the study of the magnetic properties of matter, and radioactivity. An important player in the physics community already in his 20s and in the German academia in his later years, Gerlach was appointed, on Werner Heisenberg’s recommendation, Plenipotentiary for nuclear research for the last six- teen months of the existence of the Third Reich. He supported the effort of the German physicists to achieve a controlled chain reaction in a uranium reactor until the last moments before the effort was halted by the Allied Alsos Mission. The reader can find additional discussion of Gerlach’s role in the supplementary material provided with the online version of the chapter on SpringerLink. After returning from his detention at Farm Hall, he redirected his boundless elan and determination to the reconstruction of German academia. Among his high-ranking appointments in the Federal Republic were the presidency of the University of Munich (1948–1951) and of the Fraunhofer Society (1948–1951) as well as the vice-presidency of the German Science Foun- dation (1949–1961) and the German Physical Society (1956–1957).

  • Ultrasound – the First Fifty Years
    MEDICAL PHYSICS INTERNATIONAL Journal, Special Issue, History of Medical Physics 5, 2021 ULTRASOUND – THE FIRST FIFTY YEARS Francis Duck Formerly University of Bath and Royal United Hospital NHS Trust Bath UK I. INTRODUCTION The application of x-rays to medicine has a historical perspective that is quite unlike any other medical technology. The step change that arose from the discovery of X-rays by Röntgen, announced in January 1896, and in its immediate application by medical doctors for clinical diagnosis, was highly unusual. The time-line for ultrasound is closer to the more common, slower ingress of a technology into clinical medicine. A new phenomenon, infrared or ultraviolet radiation for example, is first discovered and its properties explored in academic laboratories of physics, where a greater understanding is developed. In due course, typically as a result of a medical doctor working in partnership with an engineer or scientist, clinical applications are explored. The first serious investigation of ultrasound occurred at the end of the extraordinary final decade of the nineteenth century, which also saw the discovery of x-rays, radio waves and radioactivity, and the first use of ultraviolet waves and of high frequency currents for medical applications [1]. It would be nearly half a century before ultrasound started to emerge clinically as a potential therapeutic agent, followed shortly by its development for diagnosis and imaging. In this article I shall trace the most important milestones during these fifty years, as ultrasonic technologies were developed for other purposes before they started to be explored for medical applications, and as the effects on living organisms were investigated, so giving a basis for the development of ultrasonic therapies and also a framework for the safe exploitation of ultrasound for medical diagnosis.

  • Physics Time-Line 585BC to 2000 Philip Gibbs (Compiled 1995-2000)
    Physics Time-Line 585BC to 2000 Philip Gibbs (compiled 1995-2000) From the Greek philosophers to string theorists, this is the chronology of discoveries in physics and cosmology. According to Legend, Archimedes discovered the principle of buoyancy while taking a bath. He jumped out and ran through the streets shouting "Eureka!" The scientific revolution took off 1800 years later after Gutenberg introduced the printing press in Europe and Coperincus broke the old cosmology and put humans in their place away from the centre of the universe. Since then, thousands of scientists have experienced that Eureka moment when they realised that they have seen a fundamental truth not known before. These pages contain, in chronological order, a selective list of those discoveries from natural philosophy. These are the findings which have helped us understand the laws of physics, the universe and our place in it. The time-line is not yet complete and many more scientists will have the privilege of contributing to its future. Today the internet is taking over from print as the primary means of communicating scientific discoveries and anyone who wants to can participate. -585: Thales of Miletus, prediction of an eclipse -580: Thales of Miletus, birth of scientific thought -580: Thales of Miletus, water as the basic element -580: Thales of Miletus, magnets and attraction to rubbed amber -560: Thales of Miletus, first cosmologies -550: Anaximenes, flat Earth -525: Pythagoras, understanding the world and mathematics -520: Anaximander, Earth surface is curved
