    Extractions: For some twenty years from 1912 there was an exchange scheme between Harvard University and Colorado College (with some other western colleges), under which for some weeks each year a Harvard professor would visit Colorado College, and every so often a member of Colorado College faculty would spend a semester at Harvard to carry out teaching and research. Under this scheme Guy Albright visited Harvard in 1913, while the Harvard mathematicians who visited Colorado College were George Birkhoff in 1924-5, and the potential theorist Oliver Kellogg (1878-1932). George D Birkhoff (1884-1944) was, in the words of the Dictionary of Scientific Biography, "very generally regarded, both in the United States and abroad, as the leading American mathematician of his day". At the time of his stay at Colorado College he was carrying out research into dynamical systems. During his visit in October-November 1924 he gave a series of five public lectures on 'The origin, nature and influence of relativity', and one on 'Mathematics and art', as well as teaching mathematics classes including "certain more technical classes for advanced students".

    Extractions: Week of May 22, 2004; Vol. 165, No. 21 Ivars Peterson Birkhoff's interest in aesthetics began early. As an undergraduate at Harvard, he was intrigued by the structure of western music and pondered the riddle of what makes something melodious. In the early 1930s, Birkhoff spent a year traveling around the world studying art, music, and poetry in various countries. He came up with a formula that encapsulated his insights into aesthetic value and described his theory in a 1933 book, Aesthetic Measure , published by Harvard University Press. At the core of his theory was a formula: M O C , where M is aesthetic measure or value, O is aesthetic order, and C is complexity. In other words, Birkhoff put a high aesthetic value on orderliness and a low one on complexity. In his view, beauty increases as complexity decreases. Here's how Birkhoff's formula for aesthetic measure could be applied to isolated polygonal figures. In this case

Estudió en las universidades de Harvard y Chicago y fue profesor de la Universidad de Harvard (1912-39). Atrajo la atención internacional en 1913 al demostrar un teorema geométrico conjeturado por Jules Henri Poincaré, demostración que constituye un paso adelante para resolver el problema de los tres cuerpos cuyos campos de gravitación se interfieren. Aportó otra notabilísima contribución en 1931 al presentar pruebas del teorema ergódico relativo a la energía en mecánica estática. Sus otros trabajos de investigación se refieren a ecuaciones diferenciales, a la dinámica y a la naturaleza e influencia de la relatividad, cuyos resultados quedaron plasmados en las siguientes obras: Relativity and Modern Physics (1923), Dynamical Systems (1928), Basic Geometry (con R.

    Extractions: (0.25 linear feet) B Ad19 American Philosophical Society 105 South Fifth Street * Philadelphia, PA 19106-3386 Table of contents Abstract An expert in stellar spectroscopy, Walter Sydney Adams made important empirical contributions to the analysis of the physical conditions of stellar and planetary atmospheres, determining the distances to extragalactic objects, and understanding stellar evolution. Adams succeeded his mentor George Ellery Hale as director of the Mount Wilson Observatory, serving in that capacity from 1923 to 1946. The Adams Papers contains approximately 100 letters addressed to the astronomer Walter Sydney Adams, dating primarily from the period after his move to Mount Wilson Observatory in 1904. Much of the correspondence is relatively perfunctory, however a few letters include interesting scientific content, including Harlow Shapley discussing his photometric study of HV 3435 and interest in Alpha Circini, Arthur Compton's comments on Keener's photoelectric method, Svante Arrhenius on the possibilities of constructing a new observatory for the Swedish Academy of Sciences, and Arthur Eddington discussing the implications of the spectrum of the companion to Sirius. Among Adams' other correspondents are J. C. Kapteyn, James H. Jeans, Henry Norris Russell, Elihu Thomson, and Willem de Sitter.
