History of Physics at St.F.X. T HE L ITTLE P HYSICS D EPARTMENT T HAT C OULD In 1950 the St. Francis Xavier University physics department was a tiny department, staffed by priests, at a university dedicated to social change and the preparation of students for seminaries. But the president of St. Francis Xavier University had been a physicist (Fr. Pat Nicholson, PhD from John's Hopkins) and change was coming. By the 1970s, under the leadership of Fr. Ernest Clarke, the department had reached its present complement of six (Clarke was the last cleric) and held a record unequaled by most physics departments in Canada: 100% of its members held grants from the Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada (NSERC). With the exception of one year, this enviable level of participation in NSERC grants has been maintained to this day, in a department that has a remarkable diversity at a small, rural Nova Scotian university with a strong Roman Catholic history and tradition. It numbers in its ranks a protestant, a Hindu, a Moslem and a Jew, with origins including India, Canada, Trinidad, St. Lucia, England and the U.S. These six teachers and researchers work in diverse fields of basic physics, including atomic spectroscopy, electron spectroscopy, statistical mechanics, theoretical biophysics and experimental magnetism.

A Short History of Physics in Greifswald The development of physical sciences in Greifswald to an independent area began in 1848 with the call of the first physicist in the present sense: Fabian Karl Ottokar Freiherr von Feilitzsch. Previously medicines, astronomers and mathematicians had teaching in Greifswald here physics. Already in 1846 Freiherr von Feilitzsch became a foreign ordinary member of the physical society of Berlin, wich was founded a year ago. In Greifswald he started numerous activities for the recovery of the respect of the physical sciences. To it belongs the establishment of the physical institute in 1857. It is remarkable that the inventor of the influence electricity machine, Wilhelm Holtz, began to work in 1876 in Greifswald, under von Freilitzsch. Since that time von Freilitzsch pursued with emphasis his largest goal: the establishment of a new institution building. This aim reached however his successor Anton Oberbeck. The new, generously executed institute building offered for the further development of the department favorable requirements. The building is the today home of the physics department. As directors several international well known physicist worked here in the following period in Greifswald, under them Gustav Mie (1905 - 1917), the winner of the Nobel prize award Johannes Stark (1917 - 1920) and Rudolf Seeliger (1940 - 1955).

Contributions of Physics to the Information Age by Ian P. Bindloss Department of Physics, UCLA Quantum Mechanics Computers The Transistor The Web ... History Some people may believe that 20th and 21st century physics research has less of a direct impact on their daily lives than biology, chemistry, engineering, and other fields. Perhaps they think of physics as an abstract, enigmatic, or purely academic endeavor. Others think that physics only contributes to national defense and medical imaging . I created this page to dispel those myths. Nearly everyone would agree that the computer, the transistor, and the World Wide Web are among the greatest inventions of the 20th century. Economists and laymen alike know that today's entire world economy is inextricably linked to these technologies. The daily lives of a large fraction of Earth's inhabitants would be substantially different were it not for their inventions. Most would agree that America's preeminence in computer and information technology is at least partly responsible for its status as an "economic superpower." The wealth of other nations such as Japan, Taiwan, countries in Western Europe, and others is also due, in part, to their embracement of, and contributions to, the information age. Read below to learn these little known facts: The electronic digital computer, the transistor, the laser, and even the World Wide Web were all invented by physicists. These inventions make up the foundation of modern technology.

Actually, the spear (called a dart or yaomitl ) is much more like an arrow. It has fletching added to stabilize flight and is quite flexible. The dart can come in many different lengths. By way of example, the author's has darts which are 7 feet long. The atlatl is the hooked stick used to throw the dart. It too can come in many different lengths and styles. The author's atlatl is about 1/3 the length of the darts. History of the atlatl The atlatl may be one of the first compound weapons that is, a tool used to enhance human power. While the earliest archeological evidence is 25,000 years old, it is believed that atlatl has been in use for some 40,000 years.

However, his declaration essentially summarized the efforts of two earlier initiatives. Several eminent physicists, including Edoardo Amaldi, Pierre Auger, Lew Kowarski, Francis Perrin, and, later, Werner Heisenberg, had recognized that Europe would be competitive in nuclear physics only if the countries joined forces, so the physicists had proposed a European research center. Rabi’s initiative would hardly have been possible without the considerable preparatory work done before the Florence meeting. Indeed, he deliberately limited his part in CERN’s founding to the formulation of the declaration. He later said, “With the adoption of this resolution, I bowed out, since this was to be a European affair.” CERN was founded less than 10 years after the bomb was made. I feel that the existence of the bomb and its success had a large part in making CERN possible. . . . I am not at all surprised at the great achievements of CERN. I expected that. I was sure that Europe, which was the cradle of science, once brought back into the path, would achieve some very great things. . . . I mentioned Los Alamos and the atomic bomb, which is an expression of the power of [the] personalities [involved]. They are here now before you, and it is important to keep them occupied fulfilling the ideals of science. . . .

History of the Solid State Division [CMSD Home] [Table of Contents] [Next Page] [Previous Page] Surface Physics radiation damage and chemical properties of metal surfaces which focused on using both optical (real space) and diffraction (reciprocal space) techniques to investigate the termination of bulk defects with surfaces. Modern-day surface science was just beginning to take root during this period, and a new program, directed by Les Jenkins, was established to determine the physical and chemical properties of surfaces at the atomic scale. An initial focus of this program was on the determination of surface structure using the technique of low-energy electron diffraction. It was during this period that John Noonan and Harold Davis established a combined experimental and theoretical effort determining the surface structure of metals with unprecedented precision. Their research, starting with Cu(110), showed that surface relaxation was a natural consequence of bulk truncation and confirmed the emerging concept of multilayer relaxation at surfaces. During this same time, the first quantitative determination of excess surface density resulting from reconstruction [Au(100)] was determined using ion scattering, in conjunction with scientists from what was to become the Surface Modification and Characterization facility. Research on the electronic structure of laser-annealed surfaces led to the utilization of unique capabilities of synchrotron radiation by David Zehner and Woody White at the Tantalus storage ring at the University of Wisconsin with Dean Eastman from IBM. During this period, Zehner also initiated a collaborative research program using synchrotron radiation with Ward Plummer at the University of Pennsylvania leading to the eventual formation of a participating research team at the National Synchrotron Light Source at Brookhaven National Laboratory. The initial research at this facility focused on determining the electronic structure of alloys, with a particular emphasis on high-temperature materials. The unique instrumetation demands of this research, a consequence of surface reactivity, led to the establishment of an additional collaboration with scientists from the University of Erlangen in Germany.
