My parents worked extraordinarily hard to give us economic stability but at the same time they managed to instill in me two qualities which became the foundation of my personal and professional life. One is an unbounded sense of optimism; the other is a strong feeling as to the importance of using one's mind for the betterment of mankind.

Schwartz, Melvin (b. Nov. 2, 1932, New York, N.Y., U.S.), American physicist and entrepreneur who, along with Leon M. Lederman and Jack Steinberger , received the Nobel Prize for Physics in 1988 for their research concerning neutrino s (subatomic particles that have no electric charge and virtually no mass). Schwartz studied physics at Columbia University, New York City, and received his Ph.D. there in 1958. He taught at Columbia from 1958 to 1966 and then was a professor of physics at Stanford University from 1966 to 1983. From 1970 he was president of Digital Pathways, Inc., a company that he founded to design computer-security systems.

Upon graduating from high school the path to follow was fairly obvious. The Columbia Physics Department at that time was unmatched by any in the world. Largely a product of the late Professor I.I. Rabi, it was a-department which was to provide the ambiance for six Nobel Prize pieces of work in widely diverse fields during the next thirteen years. And, in addition, it was the host for a period of time to another half dozen or so future Nobel Laureates either as students or as post-doctoral researchers. I know of no other institution either before or since that has come close to that record.

Environment Newsroom Administration Directory ... More Brookhaven history Discovery of the Muon-Neutrino, 1988 BNL's next Nobel Prize was awarded in 1988, when a trio of researchers received the physics prize for their 1962 discovery of the muon-neutrino. Leon Lederman, Melvin Schwartz and Jack Steinberger, at the time all of Columbia University, made their discovery at the brand-new Alternating Gradient Synchrotron (AGS). At the time, only the electron-neutrino was known, and the scientists wondered if they could find more types of these ghostlike particles that pass through everything. The AGS, then the most powerful accelerator in the world, was capable of producing the beam needed. Jack Steinberger, Melvin Schwartz and Leon Lederman The experiment used a beam of the AGS's energetic protons to produce a shower of pi mesons, which traveled 70 feet toward a 5,000-ton steel wall made of old battleship plates. On the way, they decayed into muons and neutrinos, but only the latter particles could pass through the wall into a neon-filled detector called a spark chamber. There, the impact of neutrinos on aluminum plates produced muon spark trails that could be detected and photographed proving the existence of muon-neutrinos. The experiment's use of the first-ever neutrino beam paved the way for scientists to use these particles in research at the AGS and around the world.

For more information, contact: Pete Genzer Mona S. Rowe October 8, 2002 Electronic newsroom Brookhaven Lab’s Raymond Davis Jr. Wins Nobel Prize in Physics NOTE: Extensive background information on Dr. Davis is located here UPTON, NY - Raymond Davis Jr., a retired chemist at the U.S. Department of Energy’s Brookhaven National Laboratory, has won the Nobel Prize in Physics for detecting solar neutrinos, ghostlike particles produced in the nuclear reactions that power the sun. Davis shares the prize with Masatoshi Koshiba of Japan, and Riccardo Giacconi of the U.S. In awarding the prize to Davis and Koshiba, the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences cited both “for pioneering contributions to astrophysics, in particular for the detection of cosmic neutrinos.” Giacconi was cited “for pioneering contributions to astrophysics, which have led to the discovery of cosmic X-ray sources.” The Nobel laureates will be awarded their prizes at a ceremony in Stockholm, Sweden, on December 10. The prize consists of a diploma, a medal and 10 million Swedish kroner (roughly 1 million U.S. dollars) shared among the recipients. “Neutrinos are fascinating particles, so tiny and fast that they can pass straight through everything, even the earth itself, without even slowing down,” said Davis. “When I began my work, I was intrigued by the idea of learning something new. The interesting thing about doing new experiments is that you never know what the answer is going to be!”

Nobel Laureate Named I. I. Rabi Prof. of Physics Photograph : Melvin Schwartz, Photo credit: Brookhaven National Laboratory. Nobel Prize-winning physicist Melvin Schwartz, a Columbia alumnus and a faculty member, has been named I.I. Rabi Professor of Physics. His appointment was made by the University Trustees and announced by President Rupp. Schwartz, professor of physics at Columbia since 1991, shared the Nobel Prize in 1988 with Columbia professors Leon Lederman and Jack Steinberger for their discovery of the muon neutrino. The I.I. Rabi Professorship was established in 1985 as a tribute to the eminent Nobel Prize winner who guided Columbia's Department of Physics for more than three decades. Rabi died in 1988. Schwartz teaches the Undergraduate Seminar in contemporary physics and astronomy and has provided students with an introduction to some of the most exciting developments in 20th-century physics: relativity, quantum mechanics, elementary particle theory and cosmology. His research focuses on high energy experimental particle physics with particular emphasis on weak interactions. He received the A.B. degree in 1953 and the Ph.D. in 1958 from Columbia. After working at Brookhaven National Laboratory as a research scientist from 1956 to 1958, he joined the faculty of Columbia in 1958 as assistant professor of physics and was appointed full professor in 1963. He resigned in 1966 to accept an appointment as professor of physics at Stanford.

Photograph : Melvin Schwartz, '53. Photograph : Julian S. Schwinger, '36. Columbia College, which has graduated more Nobel laureates in science than any other American college, will present to five of them its highest honor, the Alexander Hamilton Medal, this Thursday in Low Rotunda. "These are humanist-scientists, at home with Hamlet and the atom, whose shared experience of Columbia's famed core curriculum sets them apart," said President Rupp. They are: Leon N. Cooper '51, who won the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1972; Roald Hoffmann '58, winner of the Nobel in Chemistry in 1981; Norman F. Ramsey, Jr. '35, Nobel laureate in Physics in 1989; Melvin Schwartz '53, who won the Nobel in Physics in 1988, and Julian S. Schwinger '36, posthumously, winner of the Nobel in Physics in 1965. Clarice Schwinger, his widow, will accept the award. A total of nine Nobel Prize winners in science (physics, chemistry and physiology or medicine) are graduates of the College, the record for undergraduate degrees earned at any one school. The other four received the Hamilton Medal in a similar celebration 34 years ago, in 1961. Generally, the medal is awarded to only one individual each year. The medal has been given since 1947 to honor faculty, former faculty or alumni for "distinguished service and accomplishment in any field of human endeavor." Previous winners also include Columbia President Dwight D. Eisenhower and alumni Richard Rodgers and Oscar Hammerstein II.

Prof. Melvin Schwartz email: none telephone: (212) 854-8128 Melvin Schwartz Ph.D. 1958 Columbia University Particle Physics My current research interests are involved with early experiments on the new Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC), to be completed at Brookhaven in 1997. It is expected that highly energetic collisions between relativistic heavy nuclei will lead to a totally new state of matterÑQuark-Gluon Plasma (QGP)Ñin which the vacuum is excited into a collection of quarks and gluons that do not have the conventional hadronic structure. A current experiment being planned will search for characteristics of this new form of matter. Prior experiments in which I have played a major role include: 1. Discovery of the muon type neutrino (1962). This experiment, carried out at Columbia in collaboration with Leon Lederman and Jack Steinberger, received the 1988 Nobel Prize in Physics. 2. Determination of charge asymmetry in KLÞ p± m+ n (1967). This experiment was one of the early demonstrations of CP violation in in K leptonic decay. 3. Production and detection of p - m Coulomb bound states (1976Ð82). In this series of experiments we produced hydrogen-like atoms made up of pions and muons.
