72. Tributes To Albert Einstein In this 1955 article from Scientific American, nobellaureate physicists NielsBohr of Denmark and isidor isaac rabi of the United States paid tribute to http://leiwen.tripod.com/nbiir.htm

Home Up With his brilliant theoretical work, German-born American physicist Albert Einstein single-handedly revolutionized 20th-century physics and opened up many new branches of scientific research. In this 1955 article from Scientific American , Nobel-laureate physicists Niels Bohr of Denmark and Isidor Isaac Rabi of the United States paid tribute to Einstein and discussed the importance of his contributions to physics. Albert Einstein: 1879-1955 By Niels Bohr and I. I. Rabi With the death of Albert Einstein, a life in the service of science and humanity which was as rich and fruitful as any in the whole history of our culture has come to an end. Mankind will always be indebted to Einstein for the removal of the obstacles to our outlook which were involved in the primitive notions of absolute space and time. He gave us a world picture with a unity and harmony surpassing the boldest dreams of the past. Einstein's genius, characterized equally by logical clarity and creative imagination, succeeded in remolding and widening the imposing edifice whose foundations had been laid by Newton's great work. Within the frame of the relativity theory, demanding a formulation of the laws of nature independent of the observer and emphasizing the singular role of the speed of light, gravitational effects lost their isolated position and appeared as an integral part of a general kinematic description, capable of verification by refined astronomical observations. Moreover, Einstein's recognition of the equivalence of mass and energy should prove an invaluable guide in the exploration of atomic phenomena.

73. Antoine Henri Becquerel isidor isaac rabi was born in Raymanov, Austria, on July 29, 1898, the son of David Dr.rabi married Helen Newmark in 1926 From nobel Lectures, Physics 19421962 http://stwi.weizmann.ac.il/g-junior/matmon/common_tools/scientists/rabi.htm

Isidor Isaac Rabi Biography Isidor Isaac Rabi was born in Raymanov, Austria, on July 29, 1898, the son of David Rabi and Janet Teig. He was brought to the United States by his family, in 1899, and his early education was in New York City (Manhattan and Brooklyn). In 1919 he graduated Bachelor of Chemistry at Cornell University (New York). After three years in non-scientific occupation, he started postgraduate studies in physics at Cornell in 1921, which he later continued at Columbia University. In 1927 he received his Ph.D. degree for work on the magnetic properties of crystals. Aided by fellowships, he spent two years in Europe, working at different times with Sommerfeld, Bohr, Pauli, Stern, and Heisenberg. On his return in 1929 he was appointed lecturer in Theoretical Physics at Columbia University, and after promotion through the various grades became professor in 1937. In 1940 he was granted leave from Columbia to work as Associate Director of the Radiation Laboratory at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology on the development of radar and the atomic bomb. In 1945 he returned to Columbia as executive officer of the Physics Department. In this capacity he is also concerned with the Brookhaven National Laboratory for Atomic Research, Long Island, an organization devoted to research into the peaceful uses of atomic energy. His early work was concerned with the magnetic properties of crystals. In 1930 he began studying the magnetic properties of atomic nuclei, developing Stern's molecular beam method to great precision, as a tool for measuring these properties. His apparatus was based on the production of ordinary electromagnetic oscillations of the same frequency as that of the Larmor precession of atomic systems in a magnetic field. By an ingenious application of the resonance principle he succeeded in detecting and measuring single states of rotation of atoms and molecules, and in determining the mechanical and magnetic moments of the nuclei.

Front Page Next Story Curiosity at the Core of Success MLK Speaker Says 'Enthusiasm for Learning' Is Key Ingredient By Carla Garnett Photos by Ernie Branson On the Front Page... Continued... "In a society that places so much emphasis on athletics, so much emphasis on rap music and on pop culture, how do we create an environment in which children want to be curious and want to be smart?" he asked. "I believe it's that enthusiasm for learning that is at the core." Dr. Freeman Hrabowski III Similarly, Hrabowski said, he can recall his own upbringing and early education, growing up in segregated Birmingham, Ala., in the 1960s. "When I was a child I used to get goosebumps doing math problems," he said, adding that his son, upon learning this tidbit about his father's childhood, has dubbed him a "'mega-nerd.' I tell him, 'But mega-nerds can pay their bills.' How do we help every child have that curiosity that drives them to work through the problem, and that sense of exhilaration when they finally figure it out? There's something very special about that." Acknowledging how far the nation has progressed in the last few decades, keynote speaker Hrabowski (r) noted that in the sixties when he was young he never considered that he might be president of a predominantly white university nor would Americans have ever thought that NIH acting director Dr. Ruth Kirschstein (c) and NIH acting deputy director Dr. Yvonne Maddox (l) would be leading NIH.
