   Extractions: I was born on 5 November 1948 in Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania, just across the river from the town of Kingston, where my parents lived with my one and a half year old sister, Maxine. My parents had come to this small Pennsylvania town from places and backgrounds that were far apart and yet quite similar. My mother, Mary Catherine Savino (later, Savine), was born in the southern Italian village of Ripacandida in 1913. Among her earliest memories are riding into her grandfather's vineyards in a horse-drawn cart. Her father emigrated to the US and brought the family to Altoona, Pennsylvania in 1920. Her new Arnerican schoolmates teased her for her inability to speak English and taunted her as a "Wop" for her Italian heritage. She resolved to excel, and so she did, graduating near the top of her class from Altoona High School. My father, William (Bill) Cornelius Phillips, was born in Juniata, a community on the edge of Altoona, in 1907. His father was a carpenter and his mother operated a boarding house to augment the family income. His grandfather was a barrel-maker, who would demonstrate the quality of his product by jumping onto the finished barrel in front of the customer. Dad could trace his heritage to ancestors from Wales who fought in the American Revolution.

    Extractions: in full WILLIAM DANIEL PHILLIPS (b. Nov. 5, 1948, Wilkes-Barre, Pa., U.S.), American physicist whose experiments using laser light to cool and trap atoms earned him the Nobel Prize for Physics in 1997. He shared the award with Steven Chu and Claude Cohen-Tannoudji , who also developed methods of laser cooling and atom trapping. Phillips received his doctorate in physics (1976) and completed his postdoctoral research at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. In 1978 he joined the staff of the National Bureau of Standards (now the National Institute of Standards and Technology) in Gaithersburg, Md., and it was there that he conducted his award-winning research. Building on Chu's work, Phillips developed new and improved methods for measuring the temperature of laser-cooled atoms. In 1988 he discovered that the atoms reached a temperature six times lower than the predicted theoretical limit. Cohen-Tannoudji refined the theory to explain the new results, and he and Phillips further investigated methods of trapping atoms cooled to even lower temperatures. One result of the development of laser-cooling techniques was the first observation, in 1995, of the

    Extractions: http://www.swarthmore.edu/Home/News Nobel Prize-Winning Physicist Speaks at Swarthmore College Nobel Prize-winning physicist Willam D. Phillips is renowned for cooling and trapping atoms with laser light. On March 20, he will give a lecture, "Almost Absolute Zero," at Swarthmore College at 8 p.m in the Kirby Lecture Hall, Martin 201. The event is free and open to the public. His talk, an updated version of the Nobel lecture he gave in Stockholm in 1997, is aimed at a general audience and will feature complicated demonstrations involving lasers and liquid nitrogen. The event is sponsored by Swarthmore's chapter of Sigma Xi, a national scientific research society. A Wilkes-Barre, Pa., native, Phillips has been a fellow at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) in Maryland since 1996. He joined NIST in 1978 after earning his Ph.D. and completing post-doctoral research at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. The cooling and trapping of atoms, a discipline that emerged in the mid-1970s with the advent of laboratory lasers, has allowed scientists to observe and measure quantum phenomena in atoms that seem to defy physical principles. Phillips continues to study ultra-cold trapped atoms with spin-off applications for improved accuracy in atomic clocks and in the fabrication of nanostructures. For the latter, Phillips envisions using light to focus an atom laser to create what might be the basis for a next generation of ultra-small structures for electronic circuits.

    Extractions: WINS 1997 NOBEL PRIZE IN PHYSICS FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: Contact: Linda Joy Oct. 15, 1997 NIST 97-26 William D. Phillips , a leading researcher in ultra-low temperature atomic physics at the National Institute of Standards and Technology, today was named a co-winner of the 1997 Nobel Prize in Physics . He shares the award with Steven Chu of Stanford University and Claude Cohen-Tannoudji, Collège de France and École Normale Supérieure, Paris, France. The Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences selected the trio for work they did independently on the development of methods to cool and trap atoms with laser light. Phillips will receive his Nobel Prize in Stockholm, Sweden, on Dec. 10, 1997. A resident of Gaithersburg, Md., and a NIST Fellow since 1996, Phillips is internationally known for advancing basic knowledge and new techniques to chill atoms to extremely low temperatures. The cooling and trapping of atoms , a discipline that emerged in the mid-1970s with the advent of laboratory lasers, have allowed scientists to observe and measure quantum phenomena in atoms that seem to defy the physical principles governing our tangible room-temperature realm. After earning his Ph.D. in physics and completing post-doctoral research at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Phillips came to NIST (then the National Bureau of Standards) in 1978. His official duties at NBS originally were related to precision electrical measurements. However, he explains, he was allowed to use "stolen moments to dabble in laser-cooling" with lab equipment he brought from MIT. With encouragement from NBS management, he expanded the experiments and demonstrated that a beam of neutral atoms could be slowed and cooled with radiation pressure from a laser.

    Extractions: Dr. Phillips' entertaining presentation, 'Almost Absolute Zero: The Story of Laser Cooling and Trapping,' will be an adaptation of the Nobel Lecture he delivered in Stockholm. The lecture, designed to give a general audience an understanding of and appreciation for his research, will describe how laser cooling works and why it works better than anyone had expected. Dr. Phillips, who was born in Wilkes-Barre, Pa. in 1948 and was raised in Camp Hill, Pa., graduated from Juniata summa cum laude with a Bachelor of Science degree in physics. From Juniata, Dr. Phillips earned his Ph.D. from Massachusetts Institute of Technology in 1976. He is currently a National Institute of Standards and Technology fellow and leader of the Laser Cooling and Trapping Group in the Atomic Physics Division of NIST's Physics Laboratory. He resides in Gaithersburg, Md. As an undergraduate student, Dr. Phillips showed signs of his capability, according to Dr. Wilfred Norris, Juniata professor of physics. "He was one of my very best students," said Dr. Norris, who joined the Juniata faculty in 1958. "He always asked a lot of questions as a way of pushing for more information. He conducted a research project with me as an undergraduate student, and he had a gift for picking up information and building on it. He could work independently even as an undergraduate. I always knew he had great skills and potential for success, but you can never predict something like winning a Nobel Prize. I was just filled with great elation by the news."

    Extractions: Before I started laser cooling, I had done precision measurement of magnetic moments as a graduate student and also studies of collisions of laser-excited atoms. When I first came to the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST, formerly the National Bureau of Standards) I started work on precision measurement involving electrical standards, and I started working on cooling as a side-line. How many colleagues do you have in your team ? Besides myself, there are three other permanent members of my research group, Paul Lett, Steve Rolston and Kris Helmerson. In addition we have a number of postdocs, visitors and students who come for various lengths of time. Typically we might have about 12 people in the group. Do you have also any teaching assignment at university ?

    Extractions: Presents Physics Colloquium Nobel prize winner Bill Phillips opened the physics department's fall colloquium series on September 11. Dr. Phillips , a 1997 Nobel Laureate in Physics, spoke on "Matter Waves Optics with Bose-Einstein Condensates" to conclude a day-long visit where he also met with faculty and students to talk about research and opportunities in atomic physics. During his afternoon lecture, Dr. Phillips described the Bose-Einstein Condensate, a state of matter predicted decades ago by Albert Einstein and Indian physicist Satyendra Nath Bose. First achieved by physicists at JILA , the condensate is a "superatom:" a new form of matter that results when atoms are cooled to super low temperatures (in the JILA experiment published in 1995, physicists cooled rubidium atoms to 20 billionths of a degree above absolute zero, the lowest temperature ever achieved). Dr. Phillips, who researches ultra-low temperature atomic physics, said "using a Bose-Einstein condensate of atoms is like using a laser instead of a light bulb in ordinary optics."

    Extractions: To Give Public Lecture At Ramapo College (Mahwah) William D. Phillips, a Fellow at the National Institute of Standards and Technology who was awarded the 1997 Nobel Prize in Physics, will give a public lecture at Ramapo College of New Jersey Wednesday, April 25 at 4 p.m. in the Sharp Theater. The lecture, "Absolute Zero: The Story of Laser Cooling and Trapping," is an updated version of the Nobel Lecture given in Stockholm on December 8, 1997. It is aimed at a general audience of non-scientists, but discusses some of the newest and most exciting developments in physics. "Contrary to intuition, we can cool down a gas by shining a laser on it," explains Phillips. His lecture will describe how laser cooling works, and why it works better than anyone expected it to. "We can now cool a gas of atoms to less than a millionth of a degree above absolute zero the coldest temperatures in the universe," Phillips continues. "Atoms this cold exhibit weird and wonderful properties and are being used for applications ranging from super-accurate atomic clocks to new quantum devices like atom lasers." Phillips is internationally known for advancing basic knowledge and new techniques to chill atoms to extremely low temperatures. The cooling and trapping of atoms, a discipline that emerged in the mid-1970s with the advent of laboratory lasers, has allowed scientists to observe and measure quantum phenomena in atoms that seem to defy the physical principles governing our tangible room-temperature realm.
