  • PHILIP HANDLER August 13, 1917-December 29, 1981
    NATIONAL ACADEMY OF SCIENCES P H I L I P H ANDLER 1917—1981 A Biographical Memoir by EMIL L. SMITH AND RO B ERT L. HILL Any opinions expressed in this memoir are those of the author(s) and do not necessarily reflect the views of the National Academy of Sciences. Biographical Memoir COPYRIGHT 1985 NATIONAL ACADEMY OF SCIENCES WASHINGTON D.C. PHILIP HANDLER August 13, 1917-December 29, 1981 BY EMIL L. SMITH AND ROBERT L. HILL HILIP HANDLER was the eighteenth president of the PNational Academy of Sciences and served two consecu- tive six-year terms from 1969 to 1981. His tenure was marked by a rapid growth of the Academy and by a great expansion and reorganization of the work of the National Research Council. It was also a period of controversy and political turbulence in the nation, and the role of the Academy in public affairs increased considerably. The work and character of the Academy will likely long be influenced by the many changes that occurred in these years. Philip Handler was born in New York City on August 13, 1917, the first child and oldest son of Lena Heisen Handler and Jacob Handler. His mother, one often children, was the daughter of a chicken farmer in Norma, a town in southern New Jersey. The life of his father, who came from central Europe, represented an almost typical American success story of that immigrant generation, and served as an exam- ple to his family of the rewards that come from hard work, self-education, and determination.

  • Henry Melson Stommel<Br> 27 September, 1920ÂŒ17 January
    Journal of Marine Research, 50, i-viii, 1992 Henry Melson Stommel 27 September, 1920-17 January, 1992 Henry Stommel's heart stopped beating shortly after midnight on Friday, January 17, 1992, four days after he had undergone surgery for liver cancer at Deaconness Hospital in Brookline, Mass. His death brought to an end the career of a man who, for 45 years, was the most significant scientific contributor to the development of oceanography and who brought a rare degree of harmony and collegiality to the field. When Hank arrived at the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution in 1944 there was little reason to suppose that anything momentous had taken place. As an undergraduate at Yale he had been advised by a counselor that, since he evidently had no talent for science, he should take up law. In 1944 he was a second-year graduate student in Astronomy at Yale and was a conscientious objector to war. The job at Woods Hole was a way of serving his country without going to the battlefield. The Yale Astronomy Department from which he had come was strongly focused on celestial mechanics, and Hank had developed an interest in the marine environ- ment through his study of celestial navigation, one of the courses that he taught. He had read a lot about the ocean and decided to prepare a synthesis that he dedicated to the students in the navy program in which he had been teaching. It was a trait that was to stay with him thoughout his life; he would be heard. Over a three-week period he wrote a 208-page book, Science of the Seven Seas, which was published by Cornell Maritime Press in 1945.

  • Cumulated Bibliography of Biographies of Ocean Scientists Deborah Day, Scripps Institution of Oceanography Archives Revised December 3, 2001
    Cumulated Bibliography of Biographies of Ocean Scientists Deborah Day, Scripps Institution of Oceanography Archives Revised December 3, 2001. Preface This bibliography attempts to list all substantial autobiographies, biographies, festschrifts and obituaries of prominent oceanographers, marine biologists, fisheries scientists, and other scientists who worked in the marine environment published in journals and books after 1922, the publication date of Herdman’s Founders of Oceanography. The bibliography does not include newspaper obituaries, government documents, or citations to brief entries in general biographical sources. Items are listed alphabetically by author, and then chronologically by date of publication under a legend that includes the full name of the individual, his/her date of birth in European style(day, month in roman numeral, year), followed by his/her place of birth, then his date of death and place of death. Entries are in author-editor style following the Chicago Manual of Style (Chicago and London: University of Chicago Press, 14th ed., 1993). Citations are annotated to list the language if it is not obvious from the text. Annotations will also indicate if the citation includes a list of the scientist’s papers, if there is a relationship between the author of the citation and the scientist, or if the citation is written for a particular audience. This bibliography of biographies of scientists of the sea is based on Jacqueline Carpine-Lancre’s bibliography of biographies first published annually beginning with issue 4 of the History of Oceanography Newsletter (September 1992). It was supplemented by a bibliography maintained by Eric L. Mills and citations in the biographical files of the Archives of the Scripps Institution of Oceanography, UCSD.

It will be possible to store muon beams with central momentum from 1 GeV/c to 6 GeV/c with a momentum acceptance of 16%. The nuSTORM facility will have the capability to: ,- ,- • Serve a definitive neutrino-nucleus scattering programme with uniquely well-characterised ν e and ν µ beams; • Allow searches for light sterile neutrinos with the exquisite sensitivity necessary to go beyond the reach of the FNAL Short Baseline Neutrino programme; and • Provide the technology test-bed required for the development of muon beams capable of serving as the basis for a multi-TeV lepton-antilepton (muon) collider.

  • Department of Chemistry
    Department of Chemistry In the 2005–2006 academic year, the Department of Chemistry continued its strong programs in undergraduate and graduate education. Currently there are 245 graduate students, 93 postdoctoral researchers, and 92 undergraduate chemistry majors. As of July 1, 2006, the Department faculty will comprise 32 full-time faculty members including 5 assistant, 4 associate, and 23 full professors, one an Institute Professor. In the fall, Professor Joseph P. Sadighi was promoted to associate professor without tenure, effective July 1, 2006; in the spring, Professor Timothy F. Jamison was promoted to associate professor with tenure, also effective July 1, 2006. In September 2005, Professor Arup K. Chakraborty took up a joint senior appointment as the Robert T. Haslam professor of chemical engineering, professor of chemistry, and professor of biological engineering. Professor Chakraborty obtained his PhD in chemical engineering at the University of Delaware. He came to MIT from the University of California at Berkeley, where he served as the Warren and Katherine Schlinger distinguished professor and chair of chemical engineering, and professor of chemistry from 2001 to 2005. Highlights The Department of Chemistry had a wonderful year. On October 2, 2005, we learned that Professor Richard R. Schrock, Frederick G. Keyes professor of chemistry, had won the 2005 Nobel Prize in chemistry for the development of a chemical reaction now used daily in the chemical industry for the efficient and more environmentally friendly production of important pharmaceuticals, fuels, synthetic fibers, and many other products. Schrock Professor Richard R. Schrock speaking at a press shared the prize with Yves Chauvin of the conference at MIT on October 5, 2005.
