  • Counting in Babylon
    Babylon had in all probability the earliest written language. At the same time, an elegant system of weights and measures kept the peace in the marketplace. Their method of counting was in some ways better than our present one! We look at some ancient math tables, and ideas about Pythagoras' theorem 1,000 years before Pythagoras.
  • Early Greek Science: Thales to Plato
    In the ancient port city of Miletus, there took place a "discovery of nature": philosophers tried to understand natural phenomena without invoking the supernatural. The Greeks imported basic geometric ideas from Egypt, and developed them further. Members of the Pythagorean cult announced the famous theorem, and the (to them) alarming discovery of irrational numbers! The Greeks had some ideas about elements and atoms. Hippocrates looked for non-supernatural causes of disease. Plato formulated a rationale for higher education, and thought about atoms.

Actually, the spear (called a dart or yaomitl ) is much more like an arrow. It has fletching added to stabilize flight and is quite flexible. The dart can come in many different lengths. By way of example, the author's has darts which are 7 feet long. The atlatl is the hooked stick used to throw the dart. It too can come in many different lengths and styles. The author's atlatl is about 1/3 the length of the darts. History of the atlatl The atlatl may be one of the first compound weapons that is, a tool used to enhance human power. While the earliest archeological evidence is 23,000 years old, it is believed that atlatl has been in use for some 40,000 years.

    A biography of Andrei Sakharov and his contributions to Soviet nuclear weapons research, nuclear fusion, cosmology, human rights, and world peace. Includes a bibliography and links to related sites.
    http://www.aip.org/history/sakharov/

    Text Version
    ndrei Sakharov (1921-1989) was a Soviet physicist who became, in the words of the Nobel Peace Committee, a spokesman for the conscience of mankind . He was fascinated by fundamental physics and cosmology, but first he spent two decades designing nuclear weapons. He came to be regarded as the father of the Soviet hydrogen bomb, contributing perhaps more than anyone else to the military might of the USSR. But gradually Sakharov became one of the regime’s most courageous critics, a defender of human rights and democracy. He could not be silenced, and helped bring down one of history’s most powerful dictatorships. This exhibit tells about Sakharov’s extraordinary life.

    Surface Physics
    radiation damage and chemical properties of metal surfaces which focused on using both optical (real space) and diffraction (reciprocal space) techniques to investigate the termination of bulk defects with surfaces. Modern-day surface science was just beginning to take root during this period, and a new program, directed by Les Jenkins, was established to determine the physical and chemical properties of surfaces at the atomic scale. An initial focus of this program was on the determination of surface structure using the technique of low-energy electron diffraction. It was during this period that John Noonan and Harold Davis established a combined experimental and theoretical effort determining the surface structure of metals with unprecedented precision. Their research, starting with Cu(110), showed that surface relaxation was a natural consequence of bulk truncation and confirmed the emerging concept of multilayer relaxation at surfaces. During this same time, the first quantitative determination of excess surface density resulting from reconstruction [Au(100)] was determined using ion scattering, in conjunction with scientists from what was to become the Surface Modification and Characterization facility.

    The Boomerang page 1
    Introduction

    Most of us are familiar with the boomerang, the wonderful stick that returns when you throw it. However, most of us don't know the history of the boomerang or the complex physics and aerodynamics involved. To understand why a boomerang returns, we must look at the shape of the boomerang, the aerodynamics and physics. Finally, the correct throwing technique will be discussed.
    History
    The boomerang is often times thought of as a weapon. However, the boomerang has always been primarily a recreational toy. The real weapon used by the Aborigines was the killer-stick. The killer-stick shares many properties with the boomerang except one. The killer-stick does not return!
    The killer-stick was simply a stick honed to have a cross-section similar to a modern day airfoil. This stick actually flew through the air at high speeds. It was given a rotation at launch for stability much like the discus and frisbee of today. The killer-stick could be thrown very far and with great accuracy.

    Gas discharges are observed in a magnetic field between the circular magnets by graduate student Benjamin Lax and Professor Sanborn C. Brown. Dr. Lax later joined the faculty in MIT's Department of Physics and became the first director of MIT's Francis Bitter National Magnet Laboratory in 1960. Professor Brown, an experimentalist and an authority on gaseous discharges in plasmas, collaborated with Professor William P. Allis, a theorist in the field. Their combined research led to a better understanding of the behavior of microwave gas discharges and high-density plasmas. (Photo courtesy MIT Museum)

    Professors George N. Hatsopoulos and Joseph Kaye of the Mechanical Engineering Department examine a model of a new thermionic energy conversion device which they invented to convert heat directly into electricity. The thermo-electron engine operated without any mechanical parts and was built with assistance from RLE's technicians and staff members. Professor Hatsopoulos joined the RLE faculty in 1960 to investigate thermionic energy conversion. (Photo courtesy MIT Museum)
    At the blackboard, Professor David J. Rose details the operation of the Wingerson magnetic corkscrew bottle to graduate students Richard C. Wingerson and James S. Tulenko. The corkscrew wire generated a magnetic field in the magnetic pipe which accelerated an entering gas particle. In combination with a magnetic bottle, it was anticipated that high-energy particles could be trapped to form a thermonuclear plasma. (Photo courtesy MIT Museum)

    OBSERVATORY NEWS
    We have recently acquired two new instruments: A 3-m radio telescope has been purchased with a 21-cm receiver system for observing atomic Hydrogen. With this telescope we can observe the Hydrogen that exists in the space between the stars known as the interstellar medium. It allows us to study the amount of Hydrogen and its velocity, permitting measurements to be made of the rotation of our Galaxy. In this way we can see the large-scale structure of the Galaxy. The picture shows some of the team, including undergraduate student Luke Woolfenden, during the telescope assembly. The telescope is used by the students of Cardiff University, as well as by members of the Cardiff Astronomical Society. It is also available for viewing by school parties and members of the public during University Open Days. An H-alpha filter is now being used in conjunction with the Meade telescope for solar astronomy. With this filter we can take images of the Sun to examine details such as sunspots, solar flares and prominences. In this way we can study the energetics of the Sun. This image was taken by Cardiff students Danielle Moakes and Alex Nichols through the H-alpha filter on the afternoon of 2002 October 10th. It shows a very clear solar prominence visible on the limb of the Sun. There is a vertical column at one end of the prominence and a huge arch connecting the top of the column to the sun's surface. The scale of this image is such that the Earth would fit underneath the arch!

    Intertheory Relations in Physics
    Many issues in the philosophy of science concern the nature of theories and certain relations that may obtain between them. Typically, one is interested in the degree to which a successor to a given theory "goes beyond" (both descriptively and explanatorily) the theory it succeeds. Most often these issues are framed in the context of reductive relations between theories. When does a theory T reduce to a theory T ? How is one to understand the nature of this reduction relation? Interestingly, there are two distinct, yet, related ways of understanding the reductive relationship between T and T . Thomas Nickles noted this in a paper entitled "Two Concepts of Intertheoretic Reduction." On the one hand, there is the "philosopher's" sense of reduction on which the supplanted theory is said to reduce to the newer more encompassing theory. On the other hand, the "physicist's" sense of reduction puts things the other way. The newer, typically more refined theory is said to reduce to the older typically less encompassing theory in some sort of limit. These two senses of reduction will be discussed in turn.

The music is an art to combine the sounds so as to produce an esthetic impression. In addition, physics is a science which has as an aim the study of the general properties of the bodies and the laws which tend to modify their state or their movement without modifying their nature.

    Centre for
    Chemical Physics

    The Centre for Chemical Physics (CCP) is located at the University of Western Ontario in London, Ontario, Canada. The Centre’s mandate is to foster and encourage collaborative, interdisciplinary research. Some of the finest research in the physical and mathematical sciences in Canada has been accomplished through our Centre since its inception in 1973. This organization was formed to encourage research in those areas of science, which overlap more than one of the traditional disciplines. Over 48 Faculty Members (along with their research groups) are participants in the Centre for an approximate total of 200 people. They include members who are active in research in the following departments/centres Applied Mathematics / Earth Science /
    Materials Science / Engineering Science / Chemistry / Biology
    London Regional Cancer Centre / Robarts Research Institute
    Although the majority of funding is from The University of Western Ontario, faculty members also contribute a percentage of research grants each year, and corporate sponsorships are encouraged. Of greatest importance in realizing our mandate is the Visiting Fellowship Program, which brings a unique perspective to research at Western. Through this program, the members of the Centre have collaborated with over 120 senior scientists from over 30 countries. These collaborations truly broaden our horizons at a time when research is become increasingly global, increasingly expensive and yet increasingly competitive.
