One of them, rather ighly ptched, was addressed to our funding authorities: may teir preachincy about a Knowledge Based Society in Poland" come true! There is, unfortunately, little evidence tat this preaching is taken seriously by the preachers, even though the time for that in a unifying Europe is high I hope that this Annual Report bears witness that at least we are doing our bit in this direction. Thus: We have published 203 papers i international journals. Several of them quickly gain international recognition. There was hard competition for our nternal awards. The four emerging winners are behind the contributions: on the creation of circular vortices in Bose- Einstein condensates contribution 823), on our share in the NA49 experiment at CERN (contribution 64), on our use of solid state nuclear track detectors, SSNTD, in the hostile environment of hot plasma experiments (contribution 5.5) and o some special detectors or positron emission tomography to be applied in hadron therapy contribution 37). We have also contributed to te ceneral education by, eg., having over 7000 young guests at C, t, t, t t, our Trainino, Department (see Capter I ), takingZ-1 part in the Science Festival in Warsaw ad Udi, or starting the Roland Maze project" in that city. The pr OiJect alms at involving1-1 a large number of hgh school pupils in active research concerning extensive air showers at highest energies (contribution 76). Very importantly, it has gained approval and financial support of te local authorities in L6&. Two international meetings were organized by our Institute: the XXVIII Mazurian Lakes Conference, "The Atomic Nucleus as a Laboratory for Fundamental Processes", EPS sponsored, see e.a. CERN Courier 44 2004), and the "Conference on Plasma Research and Applications, PLASMA 2003", biannual -athering of plasma physics its. Our attempts at obtaining EU contracts (see p. 17) gain momentum. This track full of urdles, expected as well as unexpected ones. Slowly, we seem to be earning how to take them. It seems to be trendy nowadays to refer to our field of research as Subatomic Pysics. Obviously, this field has very strong links and/or overlaps of interests and expertise wth several other branches of modern science. The prime example is of course astrophysics with its emerging subfields: the astro-nuclear and astro-particle pysics. Several of us have for years been involved in some astrophysics related pr Oi'ects. New, hghZ:1 expectations raised by undertakings11:1 in this drectio re described in contribution 615. We wish our colleagues every success in their planned expeditio to Chile. 6 Annual Rel)ort 2003 Our Subatomic Physics as also strong links to and involvement in various applied sciences. It is the weakness and the strenath of tis field that applications are varied and scattered throughout many industries. They fd their use i many other fields of research, notably in environmental studies and, last but not least, ae te basis of a aroe number of life saving techniques. We can provide material to illustrate the relevant statement of te President of our Academy, prof. Andrzej B. egocki: "In spite o 'inany a coninzon belief I claini that te diving force of any progress is ftindamental research. Not only does it extend our Understanding of the vvorld around its, it also is ehind all those new technologies vvhich are essential.for the advancement of civilisation" (Forum Akademickle Nr 1, 2004, p. 17). One such iustration", described in contribution 5.8, concerns a new technology of producing?- thin superconductingC, films foi- Irish energy particle accelerators. Hopefully, tis may become an important, economic method. This Foreword is not meant as a uide throuah our Report but, hopefully, should serve as an encouragement to look inside. I hope the Reader finds satisfaction in doing so. Professor Ziemowid S 'kowski Annual Report 2003 7 1. GENERAL INFORMATION The Institute is a state owned laboratory.

    IAEA-TECDOC-1168 Compilation and evaluation of fission yield nuclear data Final report of a co-ordinated research project 1991–1996 December 2000 The originating Section of this publication in the IAEA was: Nuclear Data Section International Atomic Energy Agency Wagramer Strasse 5 P.O. Box 100 A-1400 Vienna, Austria COMPILATION AND EVALUATION OF FISSION YIELD NUCLEAR DATA IAEA, VIENNA, 2000 IAEA-TECDOC-1168 ISSN 1011–4289 © IAEA, 2000 Printed by the IAEA in Austria December 2000 FOREWORD Fission product yields are required at several stages of the nuclear fuel cycle and are therefore included in all large international data files for reactor calculations and related applications. Such files are maintained and disseminated by the Nuclear Data Section of the IAEA as a member of an international data centres network. Users of these data are from the fields of reactor design and operation, waste management and nuclear materials safeguards, all of which are essential parts of the IAEA programme. In the 1980s, the number of measured fission yields increased so drastically that the manpower available for evaluating them to meet specific user needs was insufficient. To cope with this task, it was concluded in several meetings on fission product nuclear data, some of them convened by the IAEA, that international co-operation was required, and an IAEA co-ordinated research project (CRP) was recommended. This recommendation was endorsed by the International Nuclear Data Committee, an advisory body for the nuclear data programme of the IAEA. As a consequence, the CRP on the Compilation and Evaluation of Fission Yield Nuclear Data was initiated in 1991, after its scope, objectives and tasks had been defined by a preparatory meeting.

  • Dossier Pierre Duhem Pierre Duhem's Philosophy and History of Science
    Transversal: International Journal for the Historiography of Science , 2 (201 7) 03 -06 ISSN 2526 -2270 www.historiographyofscience.org © The Author s 201 7 — This is an open access article Dossier Pierre Duhem Pierre Duhem’s Philos ophy and History of Science Introduction Fábio Rodrigo Leite 1 Jean-François Stoffel 2 DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.24117/2526-2270.2017.i2.02 _____________________________________________________________________________ We are pleased to present in this issue a tribute to the thought of Pierre Duhem, on the occasion of the centenary of his death that occurred in 2016. Among articles and book reviews, the dossier contains 14 contributions of scholars from different places across the world, from Europe (Belgium, Greece, Italy, Portugal and Sweden) to the Americas (Brazil, Canada, Mexico and the United States). And this is something that attests to the increasing scope of influence exerted by the French physicist, philosopher and 3 historian. It is quite true that since his passing, Duhem has been remembered in the writings of many of those who knew him directly. However, with very few exceptions (Manville et al. 1927), the comments devoted to him exhibited clear biographical and hagiographic characteristics of a generalist nature (see Jordan 1917; Picard 1921; Mentré 1922a; 1922b; Humbert 1932; Pierre-Duhem 1936; Ocagne et al. 1937). From the 1950s onwards, when the studies on his philosophical work resumed, the thought of the Professor from Bordeaux acquired an irrevocable importance, so that references to La théorie physique: Son objet et sa structure became a common place in the literature of the area. As we know, this recovery was a consequence of the prominence attributed, firstly, to the notorious Duhem-Quine thesis in the English- speaking world, and secondly to the sparse and biased comments made by Popper that generated an avalanche of revaluations of the Popperian “instrumentalist interpretation”.

  • One of the Most Celebrated Physics Experiments of the 20Th Cent
    Not Only Because of Theory: Dyson, Eddington and the Competing Myths of the 1919 Eclipse Expedition Introduction One of the most celebrated physics experiments of the 20th century, a century of many great breakthroughs in physics, took place on May 29th, 1919 in two remote equatorial locations. One was the town of Sobral in northern Brazil, the other the island of Principe off the west coast of Africa. The experiment in question concerned the problem of whether light rays are deflected by gravitational forces, and took the form of astrometric observations of the positions of stars near the Sun during a total solar eclipse. The expedition to observe the eclipse proved to be one of those infrequent, but recurring, moments when astronomical observations have overthrown the foundations of physics. In this case it helped replace Newton’s Law of Gravity with Einstein’s theory of General Relativity as the generally accepted fundamental theory of gravity. It also became, almost immediately, one of those uncommon occasions when a scientific endeavor captures and holds the attention of the public throughout the world. In recent decades, however, questions have been raised about possible bias and poor judgment in the analysis of the data taken on that famous day. It has been alleged that the best known astronomer involved in the expedition, Arthur Stanley Eddington, was so sure beforehand that the results would vindicate Einstein’s theory that, for unjustifiable reasons, he threw out some of the data which did not agree with his preconceptions. This story, that there was something scientifically fishy about one of the most famous examples of an experimentum crucis in the history of science, has now become well known, both amongst scientists and laypeople interested in science.
