By HUANG KERSON,Kerson Huang

As the court cases of a symposium in honor of Victor Weisskopf at MIT, this quantity comprises papers through leaders of physics on the time, together with M Delbrück, M Gell-Mann, H Bethe, T D Lee, B R Mottelson, W ok H Panofsky, E Purcell, J Schwinger, S M Ulam, and others. a few papers tackle difficulties within the philosophy of physics, and physics and society, which are undying in nature. however the symposium had a old value, in that it came about at a ancient juncture of particle physics — the emergence of the traditional version because of experiments that time to the lifestyles of quarks. a few of the papers mirror either the pre-quark and post-quark issues of view. For those purposes, those court cases advantage reissue and reexamination.

Contents:

  • Introductory feedback (James Killian)
  • The strength challenge (Hans Bethe)
  • Model-Free perspectives of Deep Inelastic Scattering (Julian Schwinger)
  • Life at Low Reynolds quantity (E M Purcell)
  • A attainable New type of subject at excessive Density (T D Lee)
  • The international as Quarks, Leptons and Bosons (Murray Gell-Mann)
  • What Angular Momentum Can Do to the Nucleus (Ben R Mottelson)
  • Physics for Mathematicians (S M Ulam)
  • How Aristotle stumbled on DNA (Max Delbrück)
  • Is Negotiated palms keep an eye on attainable? (W okay H Panofsky)
  • The 3rd tradition (David Hawkins)
