    Extractions: Origin Displayed: English Spelling variations include: Libby, Libbie, Libbey, Lebby and others. First found in Yorkshire where they were seated from very ancient times, some say well before the Norman Conquest and the arrival of Duke William at Hastings in 1066 A.D. Some of the first settlers of this name or some of its variants were: John Libby landed in Maine in 1630; and had eight sons, which contributed greatly to the large population of Libbys in the States; William, L. and Miss A. We have researched the Libby family crest in the most recognized sources. Before an artist or craftsman can render a family crest, it must exist. In other words the crest must have been designed and recorded by the heralds from time immemorial. Heraldic designs matriculated by the lay-artist in many cases becomes uninspired, meretricious and even ugly...

    Extractions: Today in Technology History (To receive "Today in Technology History" by e-mail, click here To read past issues click here December 17 The man who invented carbon-14 dating, an important tool for studying prehistory, was born 93 years ago. Willard Frank Libby was born into a farming family on December 17, 1908 in Grand Valley, Colorado. He studied chemistry at Berkeley, earning a Ph.D. in 1933. During World War II, Libby played a small part in the atomic bomb project by researching isotopes of uranium. (Isotopes are versions of atoms with different numbers of neutrons. They therefore have different atomic weights such as uranium-235 and uranium-238.) Libby then studied an isotope of carbon. Normally, carbon has an atomic weight of 12, but in 1940 scientists isolated carbon-14, an isotope created naturally by cosmic rays hitting our atmosphere. Small amounts of carbon-14 are found in the carbon dioxide in the air therefore, all plants and animals incorporate traces of carbon-14 into their bodies as they breathe and eat. After an organism dies, the carbon-14 inside it breaks down. Since carbon-14 breaks down at a constant rate it has a half-life of about 5,730 years it is possible to determine very precisely the age of certain old items by examining the amount of carbon-14 in them.

    Extractions: American chemist whose technique of carbon-14 (or radiocarbon) dating provided an extremely valuable tool for archaeologists, anthropologists, and earth scientists. For this development he was honoured with the Nobel Prize for Chemistry in 1960. Libby received his Ph.D. from the University of California, Berkeley, where he was a member of the faculty from 1933 to 1945. He was with the Institute for Nuclear Studies at the University of Chicago (1945-59) and then was professor of chemistry at the University of California, Los Angeles, until his death. While associated with the Manhattan Project (1941-45), Libby helped develop a method for separating uranium isotopes, an essential step in the creation of the atomic bomb. In 1946 he showed that tritium, the heaviest isotope of hydrogen, was produced by cosmic radiation. The following year he and his students developed the carbon-14 dating technique. This technique is used to date material derived from former living organisms as old as 50,000 years. It measures small amounts of radioactivity from the carbon-14 in organic or carbon-containing materials and is able to identify older objects as those having less radioactivity. Libby also served on the U.S. Atomic Energy Commission (1955-59) and wrote Radiocarbon Dating (1952).

    Extractions: RETROSPECTIVE by R. Ramaty at the RAMATY Symposium December 11, 2000 Dear friends and colleagues, First of all I would like to thank the organizers, Jim Miller, Tom Cline, Gordon Emslie, Frank Jones, Frank McDonald and Natalie Mandzhavidze, for putting together this meeting which turned out to be very interesting. I also wish to thank the speakers for their excellent talks, and express my gratitude to all those who came from long distances, in particular Benz Kozlovsky who came all the way from Israel just for this one day. I also wish to thank Brian Dennis and Bob Lin for the HESSI support. What I would like to do in a few minutes is to briefly review my scientific activities during the last 3 1/2 decades, mentioning most the individuals who I had the privilege to collaborate with and learn from. My first scientific paper was inspired in 1965 by Willard Libby who suggested that I look into reasons for C-14 variations. This led to Rich Lingenfelter who had already done C-14 production calculations based on his neutron production work. Our scientific collaboration, which is still ongoing, thus has lasted for 35 years, I believe a real record. In 1966 Rich was invited to give a talk on nuclear reactions in solar flares at the University of Pennsylvania meeting on High Energy Nuclear Reactions in Astrophysics. Rich asked me to work with him on this paper in which we did quite good calculations on gamma ray line emission from solar flares. The paper, published in 1967, was sufficiently impressive for

    Extractions: If human history is about time, then geology is about deep time: the enormous tracts of history that stretch away beneath us back to when the Earth was formed. And to understand geology we have to understand the date and ordering of events in the geological record; we have to be able to quantify deep time itself. Time means two very different things to geologists. On the one hand there is relative time - the ordering of rock strata as recognised in a cliff section or in a deep sea core - and on the other there is absolute or chronometric time. It is this that I call 'real time'. Relative time is divided up using qualitative criteria; its passing is recognised by the changing succession of rock types or fossils as one moves 'up-section' ( ie to successively younger strata). For modern geologists there are other refinements: changing signatures of magnetism or stable isotopes in sedimentary rocks are used to recognise the passage of relative time. But the way that real time - numerical ages - is recognised in geology comes from one area of physical chemistry only: radioactivity.

    Extractions: University of Chicago Nobel Laureates Seventy-eight Nobel Laureates have been faculty members, students or researchers at the University of Chicago at some point in their careers. Fourteen have won the Nobel Prize in the last decade alone. Of the 78 Laureates, 26 have won in Physics , 23 in Economic Sciences , 15 in Chemistry , 11 in Physiology or Medicine and three in Literature Seven Laureates are currently members of the faculty: John M. Coetzee James Heckman , a Professor in Economics and Public Policy, studies methodologies used to measure the impact of social programs, such as minimum-wage legislation and anti-discrimination law. He shared the Nobel Memorial Prize in Economic Sciences for work on analyzing selective samples. Robert Lucas Robert Fogel , a Professor in the Graduate School of Business, shared the award for applying economics and statistics to the study of history. In his work on slavery in the United States, Fogel has argued that the market would not have ended slavery, as it remained a profitable and efficient system for slave owners. Gary Becker , a Professor in Economics, was recognized for extending microeconomic analysis to a wide range of human behavior, such as interactions within a family. He also developed the idea that for companies, education and training are investments as much as new equipment.
