Friday January 30, 1998 - Thursday February 5, 1998 Printer Friendly Email to A Friend Friday January 30, 1998 Chemist, Shoah survivor nets Wolf Prize LESLIE KATZ Bulletin Staff A U.C. Berkeley professor who was saved from the Nazis by Swedish diplomat Raoul Wallenberg has been named a recipient of Israel's 1998 Wolf Foundation Prize in chemistry. The Wolf Prize, Israel's most prestigious award, is given each year for achievements in science and art. In the prize's 20-year existence, 17 recipients have gone on to win the Nobel Prize. "I am absolutely delighted," said Gabor Somorjai, who will accept the prize in a Knesset ceremony in May. "It's a very great honor." Somorjai, 62, got wind of the news Tuesday morning when a former postdoctoral student now teaching in Israel called to congratulate him. "It was clear it was known in Israel and Europe before it was known in the U.S.," said the Hungarian-born professor, who got official word of the award by fax later on in the day. Somorjai shares his $100,000 award with Professor Gerhard Ertl of the Fritz-Haber Institute in Berlin. The pair has been cited for contributions to the field of surface science. A U.C. Berkeley professor since 1964, Samorjai studies inorganic surfaces such as iron and platinum and explores how certain catalysts can be used on those surfaces to generate useful reactions. For example, the professor has examined certain catalyst-surface combinations that help sustain clean air and water, and produce high-octane gasoline.

Friday December 13, 1996 - Thursday December 19, 1996 Printer Friendly Email to A Friend Friday December 13, 1996 Stanford professor wins Israel's Wolf Prize in math LESLEY PEARL Bulletin Staff Keller, 73, shares the honor and $100,000 award with Yakov Sinai, a professor at both Princeton University and Landau Institute of Theoretical Physics in Moscow. Israel's President Ezer Weizman will award the prizes in April in Israel. Established in 1961 by the late Dr. Ricardo Wolf "to promote science and art for the benefit of mankind," the Wolf Prize is often awarded for a specific achievement. Keller's award marks a lifetime of contributions to math and science. His work is based on sound waves, radio waves, earthquake waves, radar and sonar. The physical laws that govern the movement of each of these follow mathematical formulas. "I had to make up methods to solve a variety of problems differential equations which can be applied to many different questions," Keller said. Born in New Jersey, Keller received a B.A. and M.S. in physics and a Ph.D. in mathematics from New York University. Since 1978 he has been a professor of mathematics and mechanical engineering at Stanford. Among his many awards are the National Medal of Science and the von Karman Prize from the Society for Industrial and Applied Mathematics. He is a member of the Royal Society, the National Academy of Sciences and the American Academy of Arts and Sciences.

This recognition is for me not only an honour, but also a source of inspiration for additional creative activity. It was in 1952, four years after the Declaration of Israel's Independence, that I, as a 10-year-old boy, came to Israel with my parents from Argentina. The Declaration of Independence was a source of inspiration to believe in ideals that transformed us from Jews to Israelis. This remarkable document expressed the commitment: "The state of Israel will devote itself to the development of this country for the benefit of all its people; It will be founded on the principles of freedom, justice and peace, guided by the visions of the prophets of Israel; It will grant full equal, social and political rights to all its citizens regardless of differences of religious faith, race or sex; It will ensure freedom of religion, conscience, language, education and culture." The founding fathers of the State of Israel who signed the Declaration also committed themselves and us: "To pursue peace and good relations with all neighboring states and people."

The $100,000 prizes will be presented at the Knesset on May 21. "Their observations of the elusive neutrinos of astrophysical origin have opened a new window of opportunity for the study of astronomical objects, such as the sun and exploding stars, and the study of fundamental properties of matter," the Wolf jury stated. Davis, a member of the US National Academy of Sciences, has been associated with the Brookhaven National Laboratory in New York since 1946. "He developed, through persistent and sustained efforts, the first large-scale radiochemical neutrino detectors and obtained the first measurements of the flu of neutrinos from the sun." These measurements were shown to provide a very stringent test for theories of the solar interior.

February 4, 2000 Brookhaven Lab Chemist Shares the 2000 Wolf Prize in Physics With University of Tokyo Scientist For Research on Neutrinos UPTON, NY - Raymond Davis Jr., whose career as a chemist spans 52 years at the U.S. Department of Energy's Brookhaven National Laboratory, will share the 2000 Wolf Prize in Physics with Masatoshi Koshiba, University of Tokyo, Japan. The Wolf Foundation has recognized the scientists "for their pioneering observations of astronomical phenomena by detection of neutrinos, which created the emerging field of neutrino astronomy." The $100,000 prize, to be shared by the two scientists, will be conferred by the President of Israel, Ezer Weizman, at a special ceremony in Jerusalem on May 21. Davis was notified that he won the Wolf Prize while he was in Russia to receive the 1999 Bruno Pontecorvo Prize. Issued by the Joint Institute for Nuclear Research, the $1,000 Pontecorvo Prize was awarded to Davis "for the outstanding achievement in development of the chlorine-argon method for detection of solar neutrinos." This method was invented by Pontecorvo and Davis further developed it. "I have been interested in studying neutrinos since 1948, when I first read about them in a review article by H.R. Crane, a physicist at the University of Michigan," Davis said. "Back then, it was a brand new field of study. It has captivated me for more than half a century."

The goal of these lectures will be the Morse theoretic proof of the periodicity theorem for the homotopy of the classical groups. The second half of the course will deal with the equivariant Morse Theory and in particular its application to the cohomology of the space of flat bundles over Riemann surfaces, as well as some of the relations of these topics to Physics. Professor Bott will present these subjects in their historical and personal context.

As a leading figure in the field of differential geometry, Bott’s recent work has focused on the application of geometry to mathematical physics and vice versa, and particularly to the theory of strings. His first major contribution was the application of Morse theory to the topology of Lie groups, which led to the famous "periodicity theorems." He was a major contributor to the development of K-theory and also worked on Yang-Mills theory, moduli spaces of vector bundles, and elliptic genera. "Through his publications, his students, and his personal qualities, he has significantly influenced the mathematics of our times," the prize jury said in a statement announcing the winners. According to the Wolf Foundation, the Wolf Prize has been awarded annually since 1978 to outstanding scientists and artists for "achievements in the interest of mankind and friendly relations among peoples, irrespective of nationality, race, color, religion, sex or political view."
