Extractions: orld Scientific is proud to have organized and sponsored the 3rd Nobel Laureate Public Lecture. Nobel Laureate Professor Douglas D Osheroff of Stanford University delivered the public lecture, The Discovery Through the Eyes of a Student: Superfluidity in Helium-3, at the Singapore Marriott Hotel on 21 February 2000. The guest-of-honor was Professor Shih Choon Fong, Deputy Vice-Chancellor of the National University of Singapore. The co-recipient of the 1996 Nobel Prize in Physics, Professor Osheroff is Professor of Physics and Applied Physics at Stanford University. He gave an account of the seven-month period when as a graduate student, he participated in the discovery of three superfluid phases of liquid 3He. These phases are macroscopic quantum states of matter first predicted to exist by the BCS theory, which explains the origins of superconductivity in metals. They are now understood to be p-wave BCS states, and hence are complex generalizations of the order existing in most superconductors. In laymans terms, this means that at extremely low temperatures, a rare form of helium becomes a superfluid with unusual properties. With a keen interest in natural science, Professor Osheroff was, in his own words, a tinkerer, always experimenting with things. In fact , at the early age of six, he had begun tearing his toys apart to play with the electric motors. His free time was spent on a myriad of mechanical, chemical and electrical projects.

Extractions: They conducted the Nobel prize winning research in the early 1970's in the low temperature laboratory at Cornell University using apparatus they had built themselves to produce sample temperatures within a few thousandths of a degree of absolute zero. Their findings proved that the helium isotope 3He can be made superfluid at a temperature only about two thousandths of a degree above absolute zero. The discovery initiated intensive research on the special characteristics of the new quantum liquid. Lee, Osheroff and Richardson have also received, among other awards, the Institute of Physics Sir Francis Simon Memorial Prize 1976, and the Oliver E. Buckley Solid State Physics Prize (American PhysicalSociety) 1980 for the discovery of superfluidity in 3He.

Hachmann and Prof. Dr. Douglas D. Osheroff Dr. Freudenberg, Dr. Hachmann, Rector Prof. Hommelhoff and Prof. Osheroff (from left). Photo : Rothe At a ceremony during the annual celebrations of the University of Heidelberg today, the University conferred the status of Honorary Senator on Dr. Reinhart Freudenberg, Dr. Hans G. Hachmann and Prof. Dr. Douglas D. Osheroff. In the words of Rector Prof. Dr. Dr. h.c. Peter Hommelhoff: "The outstanding distinction implicit in the title of Senator can be awarded for very different reasons. But there is one thing all our Honorary Senators have in common: their close links with the University." He went on to say that in the persons of Dr. Freudenberg, Dr. Hachmann and Prof. Osheroff the University had succeeded in co-opting outstanding personalities as Honorary Senators. The Senate as the supreme body of the University, Prof. Hommelhoff continued, represents the full range of subjects taught and all the different groupings in which university members are united. Such representation is especially notable at a full-scale University like Heidelberg and the structure of its Senate. "And precisely the same applies to the community of Honorary Senators and their close and meaningful links with the University. This distinction has been conferred on them for all kinds of reasons: paving the way for the University in distant areas of the world, building bridges across the oceans to link the University with partners overseas, concern for the integration of the University nearer home and understanding for its specific complexion, generous support for University projects, programmes or even buildings."

This is indeed not the case, as several kinds of motion are required by quantum mechanics, which must be obeyed at all temperatures. The speaker will describe some of these kinds of motion and some of their (often unlikely) consequences, including the failure of liquid helium to solidify under its own vapor pressure even at absolute zero, why gases of Fermi particles (such as electrons) must have velocities approaching one percent of the velocity of light, even at absolute zero. This requirements that certain particles obey the Pauli Exclusion principle leads to the unlikely reality that at very low temperatures liquid 3He is more highly ordered than solid 3He, and it was a consequence of this fact that allowed the speaker to reach the very low temperature where liquid 3He becomes superfluid, within three thousandths of a degree of absolute zero.

Extractions: PHYSICS NOBEL LAUREATE SPEAKS AT USM Douglas D. Osheroff, a Nobel Laureate and Professor of Physics at Stanford University presented a free public lecture entitled, The Nature of Discovery in Physics, on 14 Dec. at the Dewan Budaya (Cultural Hall), USM. Osheroff, who says he has always been fascinated by the unusual properties of matter at very low temperatures shared the 1996 Nobel Prize for Physics for the discovery of superfluidity in helium-3 with his Ph.D supervisors, David M. Lee and Robert C. Richardson. As a graduate student at Cornell University in the early 1970s, Osheroff was a member of the team that discovered the first of three superfluid phases of liquid helium-3, at a temperature just above absolute zero. This breakthrough in low-temperature physics allowed researchers to study the properties of quantum liquids in detail and to compare these properties with predictions of low-temperature quantum physics to describe matter at the microscopic level. In his lecture, Osheroff spoke at length on how unanticipated discoveries in physics occur, as well as the chaotic nature of the process by which understanding is finally achieved. He illustrated his points with examples from four experiments that he participated in which yielded unexpected new findings in physics. He of course elaborated on the circumstances that led to the discovery of the superfluid phase of helium-3. In particular he discussed where luck and where talent played important roles in making this significant discovery. Osheroff also managed to show off his laboratory notes from the night of the discovery of superfluidity in helium-3 on the overhead projector recorded at 2:40 a.m. - the time, he joked, at which all great discoveries are made.

The students will become well-acquainted with these 12 esteemed scientists during the coming days. Each student will have four formal interviews with panels of judges. Questions will range widely to assess students breadth of knowledge and gauge their thinking and problem-solving skills. Finalists will also be called on to explain their research projects to the judges during an exhibition at the National Academy of Sciences. Dr. Andrew Yeager, a pioneer in stem cell research, is chairman of the judging committee. You are all on equal footing, he assures the finalists as they prepare to enter the first round of judging. You may think we have already selected first, second, and third place, but nothing is farther from the truth. In the process of selecting the 40 finalists from a pool of 1,652 applicants, he adds, we know how talented each one of you is.
