FRANK, KONSTANTIN MERZ, HEINZ SIEDENTOP, AND BARRY SIMON Dedicated to Yakov Sinai on the occasion of his 85th birthday. Abstract. We consider a large neutral atom of atomic number Z, taking rel- ativistic effects into account by assuming the dispersion relation pc2p2 + c4. We study the behavior of the one-particle ground state density on the length scale Z−1 in the limit Z; c ! 1 keeping Z=c fixed and find that the spher- ically averaged density as well as all individual angular momentum densities separately converge to the relativistic hydrogenic ones. This proves the gen- eralization of the strong Scott conjecture for relativistic atoms and shows, in particular, that relativistic effects occur close to the nucleus. Along the way we prove upper bounds on the relativistic hydrogenic density. 1. Introduction 1.1. Some results on large Z-atoms. The asymptotic behavior of the ground state energy and the ground state density of atoms with large atomic number Z have been studied in detail in non-relativistic quantum mechanics. Soon after the advent of quantum mechanics it became clear that the non- relativistic quantum multi-particle problem is not analytically solvable and of in- creasing challenge with large particle number. This problem was addressed by Thomas [51] and Fermi [11, 12] by developing what was called the statistical model of the atom. The model is described by the so-called Thomas{Fermi functional (Lenz [28]) Z ZZ TF 3 5=3 Z 1 ρ(x)ρ(y) (1) EZ (ρ) := 10 γTFρ(x) − ρ(x) dx + dx dy ; 3 jxj 2 3 3 jx − yj R R ×R | {z } =:D[ρ] 2 2=3 where γTF = (6π =q) is a positive constant depending on the number q of spin states per electron, i.e., physically 2.

The Cavendish Lab in the 1920s and 30s is often cited as the beginning of modern “big science.” Dozens of researchers worked in teams on interrelated problems. Yet much of the work there used simple, inexpensive devices — the sort of thing Rutherford is famous for. And the lab had many competitors: in Paris, Berlin, and even in the U.S. Rutherford became Cavendish Professor and director of the Cavendish Laboratory in 1919, following the It is tempting to simplify a complicated story. Rutherford directed the Cavendish Lab footsteps of J.J. Thomson. Rutherford died in 1937, having led a first wave of discovery of the atom.

This policy transition was controversial, causing friction with U.S. allies, with the nuclear power industry, and with Congress. Early in his presidential campaign, Carter criticized the excessive federal financial commitment to developing plutonium-based reactors and adopted the view that the weapons proliferation risks of plutonium economy technologies were serious and needed to be addressed.

  • Guido Altarelli (1941–2015)
    Available online at www.sciencedirect.com ScienceDirect Nuclear Physics B 901 (2015) 249–251 www.elsevier.com/locate/nuclphysb Obituary Guido Altarelli (1941–2015) Guido Altarelli was one of a small group of physicists who shaped our current theory of the fundamental interactions: the so-called Standard Model. Guidos wa born in Rome in the midst of World War II, and in Rome he spent his early years. His hometown was very present in his words and memories, and he never lost contact with Rome during his scientific career: he never sold the apartment in which he grew up (he actually lived in it after the death of his parents), and after so many years spent abroad, he never lost his beautiful Roman accent — we always had the feeling that he did it on purpose. He graduated in 1964 at University of Roma La Sapienza, one out of an outstanding group of young physicists who later played an essential role in the foundation and development of modern fundamental physics. Right after graduation he followed Raoul Gatto in Florence, where this promising group of scientists grew up and became mature researchers. In the following years (1968–1970) he was in the United States, were the quantum field theory of the fundamental interactions was being developed at the time; at the Rockefeller University in 1969 he overlapped with another young physicist he had already met at La Sapienza, Giorgio Parisi. In 1970 he obtained a position at his Alma Mater, where he became a full professor in 1980. In that period he visited Ecole Normale Supérieure in Paris (1976–1977, when Giorgio Parisi was in Paris too, and again in 1981), and Boston University (1985–1986).

    PATRONAGE AND SCIENCE: ROGER REVELLE, THE NAVY, AND OCEANOGRAPHY AT THE SCRIPPS INSTITUTION RONALD RAINGER Department of History, Texas Tech University,Lubbock, TX 79409-1013, [email protected] Originally published as: Rainger, Ronald. "Patronage and Science: Roger Revelle, the U.S. Navy, and Oceanography at the Scripps Institution." Earth sciences history : journal of the History of the Earth Sciences Society 19(1):58-89, 2000. This article is reprinted courtesy of the History of the Sciences Society from Earth Sciences History, 2000, 19:58-89. ABSTRACT In the years between 1940 and 1955, American oceanography experienced considerable change. Nowhere was that more true than at the Scripps Institution of Oceanography in La Jolla, California. There Roger Revelle (1909-1991) played a major role in transforming a small, seaside laboratory into one of the leading oceanographic centers in the world. This paper explores the impact that World War II had on oceanography and his career. Through an analysis of his activities as a naval officer responsible for promoting oceanography in the navy and wartime civilian laboratories, this article examines his understanding of the relationship between military patronage and scientific research and the impact that this relationship had on disciplinary and institutional developments at Scripps. In 1947 Harald Sverdrup (1888-1957) and Roger Revelle, two of the leading oceanographers in the United States, made plans for Revelle's return to the Scripps 2 Institution of Oceanography (SIO). After six years of coordinating and promoting oceanography within the U.S. Navy, Revelle was returning to the center where he had earned his Ph.D.

Stoff Containing Science: The U.S. National Security State and Scientists’ Challenge to Nuclear Weapons during the Cold War by Paul Harold Rubinson, B.A.; M.A. Dissertation Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of The University of Texas at Austin in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy The University of Texas at Austin August 2008 Acknowledgements Thanks first and foremost to Mark Lawrence for his guidance, support, and enthusiasm throughout this project. It would be impossible to overstate how essential his insight and mentoring have been to this dissertation and my career in general. Just as important has been his camaraderie, which made the researching and writing of this dissertation infinitely more rewarding. Thanks as well to Bruce Hunt for his support. Especially helpful was his incisive feedback, which both encouraged me to think through my ideas more thoroughly, and reined me in when my writing overshot my argument. I offer my sincerest gratitude to the Smith Richardson Foundation and Yale University International Security Studies for the Predoctoral Fellowship that allowed me to do the bulk of the writing of this dissertation. Thanks also to the Brady-Johnson Program in Grand Strategy at Yale University, and John Gaddis and the incomparable Ann Carter-Drier at ISS.

  • Appendix E Nobel Prizes in Nuclear Science
    Nuclear Science—A Guide to the Nuclear Science Wall Chart ©2018 Contemporary Physics Education Project (CPEP) Appendix E Nobel Prizes in Nuclear Science Many Nobel Prizes have been awarded for nuclear research and instrumentation. The field has spun off: particle physics, nuclear astrophysics, nuclear power reactors, nuclear medicine, and nuclear weapons. Understanding how the nucleus works and applying that knowledge to technology has been one of the most significant accomplishments of twentieth century scientific research. Each prize was awarded for physics unless otherwise noted.
