Organization The Swedish Atomic Research Council consists of the President and eleven members. The President of the Council is appointed by the Government. The Secretary, also appointed by the Government, is a member of the Council by virtue of his office. Six members are elected by the Faculties of Natural Sciences at,the Universities of Jppsala, lund and Stockholm, by the Board of the Research Institute of National Defence, by the Board of the Swedish .Atomic Energy Com- , pany and, jointly, by the Faculties of the.Royal Institute of Tech- nology in Stockholm and Chalmers University of Technology in Gotheh- burg.. The remaining .four members are appointed by the GovernmentM .. _.--•',• according to, proposals made by= the Council. ••'. ,-,.-.'.' >j ..' The term of-/office, for. a member, of the-Council is'three yeasäis ••'•'-" -: 7 /;'? A member who has; served for two consecutive periods may not be appoin- ted for. a further period., Thiis limitation does not apply to the " "j .>". President or to the Secretary. A number of committees have been set up to advise the Council on various subjects. The Council has thus set up permanent advisory delegations for physics, for chemistry and for biology and radiation safety research. The Council is also advised by a permanent working group - The Committee of the Council. 1.1.4. International relations The Swedish Government has instructed the Council to be the Swedish coordination organization for the European Organization for Nuclear J.

One of these was based on the semi-circular focusing of electrons in a homogeneous magnetic field, while the other used a big magnetic lens. The first principle could give good resolution but low intensity, and the other just the reverse. I was then looking for a possibility of combining the two good properties into one instrument. The idea was to shape the previously homogeneous magnetic field in such a way that focusir: should occur in two directions, instead of only one as in + ,• jemi-circular case.

  • TRIUMF Celebrates Its First Four Decades
    FACES AND PLACES ANNIVERSARY TRIUMF celebrates its first four decades A little more than 40 years after TRIUMF was formally introduced to the world with the planting of an apple tree from Sir Isaac Newton’s family estate, the laboratory threw open its doors to the community to show off the fruit borne by four decades of basic and applied research. On 8 August TRIUMF celebrated its 40th anniversary with a festive open house, where for only the second time, the lab was open to the public for self-guided tours, physics demonstrations, games, fun for kids and free food. More than 1300 people came to this milestone event and they were not disappointed – some 100 TRIUMF employees volunteered on a pleasantly warm Saturday afternoon to talk to visitors along the tour route, answer questions, give demonstrations and explain the experiments and apparatus currently in operation. “A fifth of the lab gave up their Saturday TRIUMF’s 40th Anniversary commemoration ceremony. Invited guests and scientists who attended the to show TRIUMF off to the community,” original tree-planting ceremony 40 years ago, pose for a photograph in front of descendants of explains Colin Morton, ISAC beam physicist “Newton’s apple trees”.

Colaux Thin fi lm depth profi ling by ion beam analysis Analyst View Article Online TUTORIAL REVIEW View Journal | View Issue Thin film depth profiling by ion beam analysis Cite this: Analyst, 2016, 141, 5944 Chris Jeynes* and Julien L. Colaux† The analysis of thin films is of central importance for functional materials, including the very large and active field of nanomaterials. Quantitative elemental depth profiling is basic to analysis, and many tech- niques exist, but all have limitations and quantitation is always an issue. We here review recent significant advances in ion beam analysis (IBA) which now merit it a standard place in the analyst’s toolbox. Rutherford backscattering spectrometry (RBS) has been in use for half a century to obtain elemental depth profiles non-destructively from the first fraction of a micron from the surface of materials: more generally, “IBA” refers to the cluster of methods including elastic scattering (RBS; elastic recoil detection, ERD; and non-Rutherford elastic backscattering, EBS), nuclear reaction analysis (NRA: including particle- induced gamma-ray emission, PIGE), and also particle-induced X-ray emission (PIXE). We have at last demonstrated what was long promised, that RBS can be used as a primary reference technique for the best traceable accuracy available for non-destructive model-free methods in thin films. Also, it has Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 Unported Licence. become clear over the last decade that we can effectively combine synergistically the quite different information available from the atomic (PIXE) and nuclear (RBS, EBS, ERD, NRA) methods.

    “Raoul Wallenberg: Saving a Nation” Elizabeth C. King Junior Division Research Paper Word Count: 2,496 1 “ I will never be able to go back to Sweden without knowing inside myself that I’d done all a man could do to save as many Jews as possible.” -Raoul Wallenberg 19451 Raoul Wallenberg, a Swedish businessman and diplomat, lived in Budapest from 1944-1945 where because of his brave actions (such as providing safe houses, protective passports, and other life saving measures) he rescued over 100,000 Hungarian Jews from possible death by the Nazis. Unfortunately, tragedy struck Raoul when he was taken captive by Soviet forces in 1945 following the end of World War II. With Russia not admitting the true story of his death, he was never seen or heard from again. Before Raoul Gustaf Wallenberg Before Raoul Gustaf Wallenberg was even born, he had a name to live up to. The Wallenberg name was and is to this day one of the most famous in Sweden. The Wallenberg ​ ​ family members are most commonly known as bankers, politicians, diplomats, and builders of industry.2 Raoul’s father, Raoul Oscar Wallenberg, was a Naval officer while his mother, Maj Wising, was the daughter of a famous neurology professor.3 In 1912, Raoul Oscar Wallenberg was diagnosed with stomach cancer, at the same time while he and his wife were expecting a baby. Raoul told Maj right before his death, “I would be so happy if only little Baby grows into a kind and good human being.” 4 Little did he know how his son would live beyond his 1 Borden, Louise.

  • CHANDRASEKHARA VENKATA RAMAN — a MEMOIR a Line Sketch of Raman by Homi Bhabha, 1949
    A MEMOIR / About the Author' Dr A. Jayaraman was closely associated with Prof. C. V. Raman at the Raman Research Institute, Bangalore, for about 11 years since its inception, and was a collaborator of Raman in his research on the Physics of Gems and Minerals and Diamond. He left RRI on a post-doctoral fellowship to the Institute of Geophysics in UCLA in 1960 to work with Prof. George Kennedy, who initiated him into High-Pressure Research. In 1963 Dr Jayaraman joined the Bell Telephone Laboratories in the Physics Research Division, and retired in 1990. He spent a sabbatical year (1970) in Bangalore to set up facilities for High-Pressure Research in India for the first time, and then a 15-month term (1991-92) in the Physics Department at the Indian Institute of Science, to set up facilities to do High-Pressure Raman Spectroscopy work, using the Diamond Anvil Cell. In June 1992, he joined the Hawaii Institute of Geophysics and Planetology of the University of Hawaii at Manoa, Honolulu, and held a Research Professorship for 5 years. Upon return from Hawaii he was associated with the Geophysical Lab of the Carnegie Institution of Washington in Washington, DC, for two years (1997 to 2000), before taking complete retirement from active scientific research. He now lives in Phoenix, Arizona, USA.
