Light Wear At Corners And Part Of Front Spine Edge Bumping To Bottom Of Spine. Inscribed By The Author "To One Of My Few Collaborators Who Worked On Something Different. Richard Wilson." Richard Wilson Born 29 April 1926 Is A British Born American Physicist. His Original Fields Were Nuclear And Elementary Particle Physics But Branched Out Into Applications Of Physics In Other Disciplines. He Is Now Mallinckrodt Professor Of Physics Emeritus. At Harvard University.He Has Lectured In 44 Different Countries. In 1988 He Became A Member Of The Science Advisory Board Of The Atlantic Legal Foundation A Public Interest Law Foundation. Wilson's First Research Was On The Properties Of The Nucleon. He Started By Using Radioactive Sources And Then Using First The Cyclotron At Aere Harwell Uk Then The Cyclotron At Harvard University Usa. This Work Is Described In Many Papers And In This Book. At Harvard He Became An Enthusiastic Supporter Of The Cambridge Electron Accelerator And Was Chairman Of The Management Committee From 1961 To 1968. He Became Known For His Work On Nucleon Form Factors An Interest Which Continues. He Was A Trustee Of The Universities Research Association From 1987 To 1993 And Studied The Inelastic Form Factors. Wilson Was An Early Proponent Of Electron-Positron Colliding Beams. And Worked Thereon In Frascati Cea And Cornell University. In 1991 He Realized That The General Public Was No Longer Automatically Supporting Physicists And Began A Career Explaining The Positive Aspects Of Radiation Use As Well As Its Risks And Dangers. In This He Used The "Hands On" Style Of An Experimental Physicist And Soon Became An Expert On Nuclear Accidents: Three Mile Island Chernobyl & Fukushima. He Is Particularly Known For His Visits To Chernobyl Being The First American Scientist To Go To The Plant And Measure Radioactivity Levels Thereby Exposing Himself To The Dangers. He Expanded His Interests To Other Hazards And Thereby Helped To Found The Field Of Risk Analysis. In This Work He Realized That While It Is Interesting What Scientists Say In Their Conferences; The Us Public Is More Concerned About Of What Congress Enacts In Response But Most Importantly What The Courts Said Last Week. This Realization Has Led To An Activity On Emphasizing To The Courts The Fundamental Thinking Of A Physicist. This Includes The Role Of Expert Witnesses In Court Cases.

An Issue Devoted To Articles About The Zeeman Effect And The Resulting Applications In Many Fields. George Ellery Hale's Article Is In English. Inscribed "Ueberreicht Von Paschen U Beck" At Top Of Front Cover. "In 1921 Two Experimental Physicists In Tübingen Friedrich Paschen 1865-1947 And Ernst Back 1881-1959 Observed That With Strongly Increasing Magnetic Field Strength The Complicated Multiplets Of The Anomalous Zeeman Effect Change Into The Simpler Patterns Typical Of The Normal Zeeman Effect See Fig. 1. Initially This Observation Remained Inexplicable. With The Discovery Of Spin In Late 1925 However And The Realization That The Anomalous Zeeman Effect Is Characteristic Of Systems With Spin S >0 Whereas The Normal Zeeman Effect Governs Atoms With A Total S = 0 The Paschen-Back Effect Could Be Understood As A Decoupling Of S And Orbital Angular Momentum L Since The Influence Of The Total Spin Becomes Neglectable For Diminishing Spin-Orbit Coupling."

Edwin Crawford Kemble 1889-1984 Was An American Physicist Who Made Contributions To The Theory Of Quantum Mechanics And Molecular Structure And Spectroscopy. He Received His Ph.D. In Physics From Harvard In 1917.After Kemble Received His Doctorate With World War I In Progress He Spent A Short Time Doing Work Which Contributed To The War Effort Developing Aircraft Engines At Curtiss Aeroplane And Motor Company. As The War Ended He Was Laid Off. While He Did Want To Return To Harvard A Position Could Not Immediately Be Found So He Spent A Half Semester Teaching At Williams College In Williamstown Massachusetts. Bridgman Had A Plan To Build Up Theory At Harvard Which Consisted Of Restructuring From The Emphasis In Electromagnetism Radiotelegraphy Optics And Wave Propagation To Radiation Theory Quantum Theory Photo-Electricity Specific Heats X-Ray Crystal Structure And Special Topics In Physics Theory. Kemble Accepted The Challenge And Returned To Harvard In 1919 As An Assistant Professor In The Physics Department. Kemble Remained There The Rest Of His Career As Instructor 1919-1924 Assistant Professor 1924-1927 Associate Professor 1927-1930 And Professor 1930-1957.6 He Was Made Chairman Of The Department In 1940. His First Graduate Student Was John Van Vleck. Many Other Doctoral Students And Postdoctoral Students/Researchers Followed In The Next Fifteen Years Including Robert S. Mulliken John C. Slater J. Robert Oppenheimer Clarence Zener James H. Bartlett Eugene Feenberg And J. L. Dunham. Kemble Was At The Center Of Research And Development Of The Theory Of Molecular Structure. Kemble Went To Study And Do Research With Both Sommerfeld In Munich And Born In Göttingen On A Guggenheim Fellowship In 1927-1928. Upon His Return To The United States He Wrote With Edward L. Hill Two Lengthy Reviews Of Quantum Mechanics In The First Issues Of Reviews Of Modern Physics. During World War Ii Kemble Supervised The Teaching Of Basic Physics To Military Officers Consulted With For The Navy On Acoustic Detection Of Submarines And Near The End Of The War Consulted For The Army On Operation Alsos. The Objective Of Alsos Was To Investigate The German Nuclear Energy Efforts Seize German Nuclear Resources Materials And Personnel To Further American Research And To Prevent Their Capture By The Soviets And To Discern How Far The Germans Had Gone Towards Creating An Atomic Bomb. Samuel Goudsmit A Quantum Physicist From The University Of Michigan Was The Scientific Leader Of Alsos And Lt. Col. Boris Pash A Former Manhattan Project Security Officer Was Its Military Leader. At The End Of Ww Ii Kemble Had The Opportunity To Continue His War-Time Interest In Teaching Physics To Non-Physicists. In Reacting To The Role Science Played In The War James B. Conant President Of Harvard And Former High-Level Administrator In The Manhattan Project Proposed Teaching Science To All Harvard Undergraduates By Teaching Them The History Of Science And Highlighting The Importance Of Science To Social Change. Kemble Joined I. Bernard Cohen Gerald Holton Thomas S. Kuhn Philippe Le Corbeiller And Leonard K. Nash In This Project. In 1957 Kemble Retired From Harvard Where He Had Spent All But Three Years Since He Entered Graduate School. For The Next Three Years He Was The Director Of Harvard's Academic Year Institute Where High-School Teachers Studied With University Professors. He Had Served As Chairman Of The Physics Section Of The National Academy Of Sciences 1945-1948 And As A Member Of The Executive Committee Of The National Research Councils' Division Of Physical Sciences.
