Extractions: When he cycled home from Lahore, at the age of 14, after gaining the highest marks ever recorded for the Matriculation Examination at the University of the Panjab, the whole town turned out to welcome him. He won a scholarship to Government College, University of the Panjab, and took his MA in 1946. In the same year he was awarded a scholarship to St. John's College , Cambridge, where he took a BA (honours) with a double First in mathematics and physics in 1949. In 1950 he received the Smith's Prize from Cambridge University for the most outstanding pre-doctoral contribution to physics. He also obtained a PhD in theoretical physics at Cambridge; his thesis, published in 1951, contained fundamental work in quantum electrodynamics which had already gained him an international reputation. In 1954 Salam left his native country for a lectureship at Cambridge, and since then has visited Pakistan as adviser on science policy. His work for Pakistan has, however, been far-reaching and influential. He was a member of the Pakistan Atomic Energy Commission, a member of the Scientific Commission of Pakistan and was Chief Scientific Adviser to the President from 1961 to 1974.

Extractions: Professor Abdus Salam, Nobel Laureate in Physics (1979), Director of the International Centre for Theoretical Physics (ICTP), Trieste, Italy, from 1964 to December 1993, died in Oxford on 21 November 1996, after a long illness. He was buried in Pakistan where he was born in 1926. Professor Salam is famous for that electroweak theory which is the mathematical and conceptual synthesis of the electromagnetic and weak interactions - the latest stage reached until now on the path towards the unification of the fundamental forces of nature. With this motivation, Professor Salam received the Nobel Prize for physics together with the Americans Steven Weinberg and Sheldon Glashow in 1979. The validity of the theory was ascertained in the following years through experiments carried out at the superprotosynchrotron facility at CERN in Geneva which led to the discovery of the W and Z particles. Salam's electroweak theory is still the core of the 'standard model' of high energy physics. BACK to ICTP home page

Extractions: Salam was my supervisor for the Ph. D. degree, 1957-1959. I finished it in October 1959, and was examined in April 1960, with Peierls as the external examiner. I had chosen my own field of research, known at the time as axiomatic quantum field theory. Salam had done his best to get me a good problem in particle physics. In 1958, a fat document came to him from Birmingham; it was the thesis of a certain S. Mandelstam , and Salam told me "this seems to be important". I read about the double dispersion relations, which I immediately wished I had thought of. I comforted myself with the thought that the paper was based on a conjecture, not a proved result, unlike the case for single dispersion relations. After a few days, Salam asked me how I was getting on. I made out that I was not very enthusiastic about the double dispersion relations, by asking, what was the research problem he was offering? Should I try to prove the Mandelstam relations from the Wightman axioms? He replied, "you can try to DISPROVE them if you like; if you don't want the document, let me have it back". He duly gave it to S. W. McDowell, a visiting Fellow, who was able to find a publishable result on the subject. Later, Salam tried again; he gave me a paper by K. Symanzik, which contained the first analysis of the singularity structure of the general Feynman integral. On the first page, Symanzik uses the concept of Gram determinant. Now, I knew what a determinant was, but not a Gram determinant; so I wasted a few days until I could ask Salam to explain it. He said "these things can be found out! If you don't want the problem..." He gave the paper to

Extractions: Forward Dr. Abdus Salam got the Nobel Prize toward the end of 1979. A Preliminary outline of the following Article was already written at that time. But in those days there were strict restrictions of censure. And our friends looked on (monthly), Bayyenat with a special favor. Even though only a photocopy of the articles, already published in contemporary papers of Karachi, was included in Bayyenat , yet the command of the bureaucracy (in which the Qadianis were Prominent) descended that it could not be Published in Bayyenat . It was submitted: Please see! This article has already been published in an esteemed monthly of Karachi, and we are Publishing the Photocopy of the same. In answer it was ordained: Whatever be! Bayyenat cannot print this article. Obviously, what could be said in response to this royal decree! On the occasion of the hundredth anniversary of Darul-Uloom Deoband , a special publication, 'Pakistan meyn Faizan-e-Darul-Uloom' Darul-Uloom 's bounty in Pakistan) running into 300 pages was compiled. But not only that it could not be published, it was so pilfered that its copies could not be traced in spite of search. Moreover its handwritten manuscript too was stolen. The same calamity befell this article.... Later other issues absorbed our thought and sight and this article receded into oblivion. Therefore it is being published rather belatedly. However, this delay ushered in a silver lining: we got the opportunity to draw upon the latest information on the subject. It is our pleasure to present the article revised and revamped for our readers.

Extractions: Abdus Salam The death earlier this month of Abdus Salam was a great loss not only to his family and to the physics community; it was a loss to all mankind. For he was not only one of the finest physicists of the twentieth century, having unified two of the four fundamental forces in Nature, but he also dedicated his life to the betterment of science and education in the Third World and to the cause of world peace. Although he won the Nobel Prize for physics, a Nobel Peace Prize would have been entirely appropriate. At the behest of Patrick Blackett, Salam moved to Imperial College, London, in 1957 where he founded the Theoretical Physics Group. He was elected to a Fellowship of the Royal Society in 1959. He remained at Imperial as Profesor of Physics for the rest of his career and it was there that I was fortunate enough to be his PhD student from 1969 to 1972. In 1964 he established the International Centre for Theoretical Physics (ICTP) in Trieste, Italy, where he remained until recently as its Director. Among Salam's earlier achievements was the role played by renormalization in quantum field theory when, in particular, he amazed his Cambridge contempories with the resolution of the notoriously thorny problem of overlapping divergences. His brilliance then burst on the scene once more when he proposed the famous hypothesis that

Extractions: Salam shared the Nobel prize with US physicists Sheldon Glashow and Steven Weinberg for unifying the theories of electromagnetism and the weak force, the force responsible for a neutron transforming into a proton, an electron, and a neutrino during radioactive decay. Building on Glashow's work, Salam and Weinberg independently arrived at the same theory 1967. Salam was born in Jhang near Faisalabad, in what was then part of British India. He attended Government College in Lahore before going to Cambridge University in England. From 1957 he was professor at Imperial College, London, and he was chief scientific adviser to the president of Pakistan 1961-74. Salam was also instrumental in setting up the International Centre for Theoretical Physics in Trieste, Italy, to stimulate science and technology in developing countries. The theory actually involves two new particles (the W0 and B0), which combine in different ways to form either the photon or the Z0. This was verified experimentally at CERN, the European particle-physics laboratory near Geneva, in 1973, though the W and Z particles were not detected until 1983. Weinberg and Salam also predicted that the electroweak interaction should violate left-right symmetry and this was confirmed by experiments at Stanford University in California.
An Ahmadi Brings Nobel Prize To Pakistan

Extractions: An Ahmadi brings Nobel Prize to Pakistan Pakistan has a poor educational record. According to a recent survey its literacy rate is , as against this, Ahmadis have 99% literacy rate and it is because of their love of knowledge. They follow a saying of Holy Prophet , it says: In pursuit of education if you have to go China, go and pursue it. And Ahmadis followed this command of their beloved literally. They claim 99% literacy. It is no wonder that the only Nobel prize winner in the whole Muslim world is an Ahmadi - Dr Abdus Salam Dr Salam brought this honour to Pakistan even though he was shunted out of Pakistan as a Lecturer in Government College Lahore in 1957. He was a man of three worlds: a) Ahmadiyyat. b) the world of Theoretical Physics. c) and the world of International cooperation. He was awarded Nobel Prize in 1979 for his theoretical unification of two fundamental forces of nature. He was also awarded Royal medal by Royal Society of London. He was associated with UN, when he became Scientific Secretary to Atomic Energy. DR ABDUS SALAM PUT PAKISTAN ON MAP OF INTERNATIONAL SCIENCE Gen Zia ul Haq embraced him as a shining example of Muslims - what an hypocrisy! (This is the man who brought an Ordinance prescribing three years terms for an Ahmadi who calls himself a Muslim, even the Holy Prophet of Islam did not arrogate to himself this authority)

Extractions: This is a collection of writings of Professor Abdus Salam, Nobel Laureate of Physics, 1979. The writings touch on many different themes, and discuss the social and economic dimensions of science. Difficulties faced by scientists in developing countries and their solutions are also given some insightful analysis. There are also interesting accounts of the International Centre for Theroetical Physics, Trieste, Italy that Professor Salam founded, and science in Islamic nations. "Professor Salam's book is a fascinating document of the fears and hopes, the likes and dislikes, the deep commitments and aspirations of a man who has struggled hard to live a creative life, against great odds, and has succeeded in doing so in two different but related spheres of human achievement. Quite apart from its purely intellectual content, the book should be a source of pleasure and inspiration to all of us." Michael J Moravcsik
