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.

In 1965 "Pauling Spent Much Of His Time Away From Santa Barbara Developing A New Model Of The Atom Which He Called The Close-Packed-Spheron Model Of Atomic Nuclei. This Theory Of Nuclear Structure Was Published In Four Different Articles "Structural Significance Of The Principal Quantum Number Of Nucleonic Orbital Wave Functions" Phys. Rev. Lett. September 1965; "Structural Basis Of Neutron And Proton Magic Numbers In Atomic Nuclei" Nature October 1965; "The Close-Packed-Spheron Model Of Atomic Nuclei And Its Relation To The Shell Model" Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. October 1965; And "The Close-Packed-Spheron Theory And Nuclear Fission" Science October 1965 Each Of Which Addressed Different Implications Of The Theory. Pauling'S Work Dealt With "Magic Numbers" And Nuclear Subshells. Previously It Was Known That Magic Numbers Describe The Quantity Of Protons And Neutrons That Make An Atom Particularly Stable. Pauling'S Theory However Suggests That The "Magic" Qualities Associated With These Numbers Of Nuclear Components Corresponds To The Filling Of Nuclear "Spherons" Or Nuclear Sub-Units Where Protons And Neutrons Are Arranged. These Spherons Or Sub-Units Were Also Referred To As Shells In Previous Theories. The Close-Packed Theory Therefore Suggests That Nuclear Components Form Clusters Rather Than Arranging As Independent Particles. The Close-Packed-Spheron Model Was Based On The Earlier Nuclear Shell Theory. Pauling Took The Nuclear Shell Theory A Step Further By Attempting To Explain Why Specific Numbers Of Protons And Neutrons Cause Greater Nuclear Stability. The Close-Packed-Spheron Model States That The Lower Magic Numbers Represent Atoms In Which The First Or Second Nuclear Shells Are Filled And That Higher Magic Numbers Correspond To A Special "Mantle" Shell; That Is A Hybridized Shell That Can Form If Greater Amounts Of Nuclear Components Arrange Into Spheres. In Developing His Model Pauling Was Trying To Explain The Arrangement Of Nuclear Components By Simplifying Previous Theories And Applying The Principles Of Electron Orbitals To Protons And Neutrons In The Atomic Nucleus. Pauling'S Past Work Had Helped To Establish The Principles Of Electron Orbital Hybridization And He Hoped That This New Work Would Yield Similar Fruit For The Atomic Nucleus. If Such Were The Case It Would Then Be Possible To Explain The Stability Of Atoms With Magic Numbers And The Geometric Arrangement Of Protons And Neutrons. Pauling'S Close-Packed Theory Was Interesting And Relatively Simple; However It Failed To Spark Interest Among Many Other Scientists. For The Next Several Years Pauling Continued To Advocate For The Theory And In June 1974 He Applied For A National Science Foundation Grant To Support Further Theoretical Research On The Structure Of Atomic Nuclei. The Application Was Denied And Pauling Turned His Attentions Elsewhere." See The Pauling Blog. The American Physical Society paperback
