the theory of alpha radioactivity. However, according

January 1929, Gamow wrote from Cambridge to Paul
Ehrenfest in Leiden, suggesting the use of high-powered
$ \alpha $-particle beams to try to split atoms. Inspired
by Gamow's suggestion (see \cite[page
106]{Stuewer:2018:AIN}), in 1932, John Cockcroft and
Ernest Walton did just that in Rutherford's laboratory
in Cambridge, work for which they received the 1951
Nobel Prize in Physics ``for their pioneer work on the
transmutation of atomic nuclei by artificially
accelerated atomic particles''.",

abstract = "The behavior of a star with a thermonuclear energy
source consistent with our present knowledge about
nuclear reactions is studied in relation to the
problems of stellar evolution and interpretation of the
Hertzsprung-Russell diagram and mass-luminosity
relation. It is found that in the case of ordinary
thermonuclear reactions, with the absence of selective
temperature effects (nuclear resonance) the central
temperature and luminosity of the star (with constant
mass) will rapidly increase in the process of
evolution. If, however, such selective effects are
present, the energy-production at the center of the
star will cease, beginning with the stage when the
central temperature reaches the selective value, and
energy will be produced only in a spherical shell
around the center. This shell will have exactly the
selective temperature value corresponding to the
thermonuclear reaction in question, and its radius will
slowly increase in the process of evolution causing a
very slow increase of luminosity. Finally, in the third
stage of evolution, when all hydrogen necessary for
thermonuclear reactions has been consumed, the star
will start a rapid contraction and, passing through the
high density stage, will end its life as a cool body.
It is also indicated that the star model with a shell
source does not possess the property of
``super-stability'' characteristic for the point-source
models.",

instability is discussed in a uniformly expanding

formed at the present stage of the development of the
universe but could have been formed in the past when
all linear dimensions were 600 times smaller. This
corresponds to the stage at which, according to
astronomical observations, nebulae have been separated
from each other. To get the correct dimensions of
nebulae it is necessary to accept that the velocities
of particles at the moment of separation were about 140
km/sec. which strongly suggests that these particles
were stars and not atoms. The type of expansion
necessary for the formation of nebulae indicates that
space is infinite and unlimitedly expanding.",

physical processes happening in their interior and
serving as energy sources, is considered qualitatively
and partially quantitatively in view of possible
applications for the explanation of various observed
states of known stars. It is shown that the part of
evolution during which the main source of energy is
given by thermonuclear reactions leads to a steadily
increasing luminosity and goes over continuously into
the contractive stage where the energy liberation is
purely gravitational. The later stages of contraction
and the transition into the state of degenerate gas
model are discussed, in application to the present
state of white dwarfs. Some remarks are made about the
possibility of neutron-core formation in heavier stars,
in application to the explosion phenomena observed in
supernovae. An attempt is made to explain the energy
production in red giants as due to thermonuclear
reactions of light elements (lithium, beryllium, and
boron), and the pulsation phenomena observed for
Cepheid variables is interpreted as due to instability
during the transitions from the giant branch into the
main sequence.",

abstract = "At the very high temperatures and densities which must
exist in the interior of contracting stars during the
later stages of their evolution, one must expect a
special type of nuclear processes accompanied by the
emission of a large number of neutrinos. These
neutrinos penetrating almost without difficulty the
body of the star, must carry away very large amounts of
energy and prevent the central temperature from rising
above a certain limit. This must cause a rapid
contraction of the stellar body ultimately resulting in
a catastrophic collapse. It is shown that energy losses
through the neutrinos produced in reactions between
free electrons and oxygen nuclei can cause a complete
collapse of the star within the time period of half an
hour. Although the main energy losses in such collapses
are due to neutrino emission which escapes direct
observation. the heating of the body of a collapsing
star must necessarily lead to the rapid expansion of
the outer layers and the tremendous increase of
luminosity. It is suggested that stellar collapses of
this kind are responsible for the phenomena of novae
and supernovae, the difference between the two being
probably due to the difference of their masses.",

abstract = "By use of the method of successive homology
transformations in conjunction with
{Bialobjeski--Eddington}'s formula, it is possible to
predict the changes of radii and luminosities of
massive stars in different stages of their hydrogen and
contractive evolution. It is shown that at a certain
stage of contraction the star must reach the maximum of
its luminosity, and it is calculated that for the star
masses of 5, 10, 20, and 40 suns the maximum
luminosities are 1$ \times $ 10$^5$, 4$ \times $
10$^5$, 1$ \times $ 10$^6$, and 4$ \times $ 10$^6$
suns, respectively. In the later contractive stages
total luminosity of the star remains constant whereas
its visual luminosity rapidly deceases because of the
shift of energy into the ultraviolet part of the
spectrum. It is to be expected that for such high
values of the (luminosity)/(mass) ratio, radiation
pressure becomes strong enough to eject stellar
atmospheres into the surrounding space, and it is shown
that the ejection will actually take place if the force
of gravity on the stellar surface will be somewhat
reduced by the centrifugal force due to axial rotation.
It is also shown that under the conditions existing in
the ejective atmospheres of Wolf--Rayet stars,
radiation pressure is primarily due to the light
scattering by free electrons. In discussing the motion
of the ejected gases, it may be necessary to assume
that their original velocity of about 2000 km/sec. can
be considerably reduced by the gravitational action of
the star. If this is the case, gaseous envelopes which
will form around Wolf--Rayet stars in the course of
several centuries will possess properties very similar
to those of the planetary nebulae. This would indicate
a close evolutionary relationship between these two
classes of celestial objects. An alternative
evolutionary road of a massive star consists in the
formation of an energy-producing shell, which will take
place in all cases where the convective currents due to
axial rotation are not fast enough to secure
homogeneity of stellar matter. It is indicated that the
growth of such shells will probably lead to the
formation of an extensive atmosphere which offers
certain possibilities for the interpretation of the
so-called red giant stars as intermediate evolutionary
stages between the stars of the main sequence and the
Wolf--Rayet stars. In conclusion the problem of stellar
collapse, which is expected to take place towards the
end of contractive evolution, is discussed in some
detail.",

dissociate an atom. This is essentially a consequence
of the fact that the motion of the electron is no
longer absolutely restricted to a region of the
dimensions of the Bohr orbit; it will now occasionally,
though not very often, be found at points much further
from the nucleus; and the further it is, the smaller
will be the field required to insure that it does not
return to the nucleus.'' However, Oppenheimer does not
use the term `tunneling'. See \cite{Nimtz:2011:TCS} for
a recent treatment.",

remark-1 = "This is one of the most important scientific papers of
the 20th Century. It is the fundamental paper that
describes the first experimental evidence of nuclear
fission, and was accompanied by a second paper
\cite{Hahn:1939:NEA} received on the same day, but
published a month (five issues) later. Hahn's long-time
collaborator, Lise Meitner (who had escaped Nazi
Germany in July 1938, first to The Netherlands, then to
Sweden) and her nephew, Otto Frisch, made a critical
analysis of the experimental results on 24 December
1938. Word from Frisch soon reached Niels Bohr in
Copenhagen, who then carried the news in a visit to the
eastern United States in early January 1939, and
announced the Meitner--Frisch explanation on 26 January
at a conference in theoretical physics at the Carnegie
Institution of Washington. By the end of that month,
American physicists were widely aware of the discovery,
and Robert Oppenheimer at the University of California,
Berkeley, had already roughly sketched how to build a
fission bomb.
Prior to this work, all previous experiments found that
neutron bombardment increased the atomic weight by just
one or two, leaving the charge, and the chemical
nature, of the atom unchanged. The new experiments
described in this paper found products that chemically
resembled lighter atoms, but were conservatively called
variants of the heavier radium, actinium, and thorium
(elements 88, 89, and 90). The third last paragraph of
the article is particularly significant: the authors
wrote ``As chemists we really ought to revise the decay
scheme given above and insert the symbols Ba, La, Ce
[barium, lanthanum, and cerium: elements 56, 57, and
58] in place of Ra, Ac, Th. However as ``nuclear
chemists,'' working very close to the field of physics,
we cannot bring ourselves yet to take such a drastic
step which goes against all previous experience in
nuclear physics. There could perhaps be a series of
unusual coincidences which has given us false
information.''
Einstein later remarked \cite{Einstein:1950:MLYa} about
the Hahn and Strassmann discovery ``this was not
something I could have predicted.''
In 1945, Otto Hahn received the Nobel Prize in
Chemistry for 1944 for the discovery of fission; see
\path=http://nobelprize.org/nobel_prizes/chemistry/laureates/1944/=,
and biographies at
\path=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Otto_Hahn= and
\path=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fritz_Strassmann=.
He was unable to attend the Nobel ceremonies, because
he was a prisoner at Farm Hall outside Cambridge,
England \cite{Bernstein:1996:HUC}.
The subsequent view of many scientists is that
Strassmann and Meitner should have shared the Nobel
Prize.",
remark-2 = "From \cite[page 64]{Sime:2012:PFO}: ``Hahn and
Strassmann's barium publication appeared in Germany in
Naturwissenschaften on January 5, 1939, but even before
that Frisch told Niels Bohr, who was about to sail from
Copenhagen to New York, from where the news spread to
Princeton, Columbia, and a meeting of theoretical
physicists in Washington, DC. By the end of January The
New York Times was headlining a ``New Physics
Phenomenon Credited to Hahn,'' with an emphasis on
`atom explosions,' `vast energy,' and `gigantic atomic
cannonballs'.''",

own hands a fine Macleod gauge --- and were horrified
by destroying it in the classical manner just as
Rutherford walked in at the door. He was sympathetic,
but explained that he did not keep students who had too
many accidents. This dislike of sins against apparatus
was one of Rutherford's well marked
characteristics.''",
remark-02 = "From page 627: ``During this period Blackett embarked
on his courageous attempt to get a Wilson chamber
photograph of the nitrogen disintegration. He took
photographs of hundreds of thousands of tracks and was
eventually rewarded (figure 6) by seeing the tracks of
disintegration protons. The photograph shows a long
proton track shooting downwards. An alpha particle has
entered a nitrogen nucleus, ejecting a proton and
leaving oxygen behind, producing the transmutations
N-14 + He-4 to O-17 + H-1. This was the first direct
proof that the alpha particle is captured in the
transmutation.''",
remark-03 = "From pages 627--628: ``They [Ernest Rutherford and
Ernest Marsden] were able to show that near heavy
nuclei, such as gold, the inverse square law held up to
the limits of penetration of the fastest alpha
particles available. But with the lighter elements they
found very marked deviations. These experiments
presented Rutherford with the paradox that the
potential barrier round the heavy nuclei must rise well
beyond 10 million volts, whereas alpha particles come
out of these nuclei at energies between 4 and 8 million
volts. The alpha particles do not therefore escape with
the full energy of the potential field. The solution to
this problem was provided by a visitor to the
laboratory; a young and imaginative theoretical
physicist from Leningrad, Dr. Gamow saw that the
solution was provided by the new wave mechanics which
was then being developed by Schr{\"o}dinger and others.
On the new ideas it was evident that the alpha
particles could leak through the potential barriers of
the nuclei, and so need not have the full energy of the
field. In this way, nuclear physicists were given a new
and most fruitful model to guide their researches.''",
remark-04 = "From page 629: ``About the same time I started to
build the first high-voltage apparatus for the
acceleration of protons. I was led to do this by the
predictions of Gamow's theory that protons of a few
hundred kilovolts should penetrate the barriers of
light nuclei. These predictions were submitted to
Rutherford and he encouraged me to go ahead.''",
remark-05 = "From page 629: ``Very swiftly, Dee and Feather were
set to work with their expansion chambers to look for
the tracks of the projected particles. Dee found the
tracks of proton and other recoils and Feather
discovered the transmutation of nitrogen by neutrons,
the first of the transmutations by this new
particle.''",
remark-06 = "From page 630: ``About the same time in 1933
Rutherford received from G. N. Lewis the first sample
of heavy hydrogen to reach Europe. Within a few days
the sample was converted into deuterium gas, which
Rutherford guarded with the most jealous care. He
turned at once with Oliphant to do experiments with
deuterons and soon discovered the transmutation of
deuterium by deuterons. They found that two reactions
occurred, D + D = H-1 + H-3 or He-3 + n, leading to the
new elements H-3 and He-3.''",
remark-07 = "From page 630: ``During 1932 we had a visit from
Millikan, who brought with him some very remarkable
cosmic-ray photographs taken by Anderson which gave the
first indications of positive electrons. Immediately
after that, Blackett and Occhialini turned on their
Wilson chamber to the search. Introducing the principle
of counter control, they very soon obtained some
remarkable photographs, showing pairs of positive and
negative electrons, and in some cases showers of
particles.''",
remark-08 = "From page 630: ``The discovery of artificial
radioactivity was missed in the laboratory, largely
because we did not in general work with Geiger
counters, and were looking for particles either with
scintillation screens or with counters which would not
respond to beta rays. When Curie-Joliot announced the
discovery of the production of artificial radioactivity
of alpha particle bombardment, Walton and I were able
to borrow a Geiger counter equipment from Bainbridge
and to show that protons could produce artificial
radioactivity in carbon.''",

never forgave was the publication of wrong results. He

McGill Physics Laboratory --- `Prove all things'.''",

influence was a major factor in the scientific
supremacy of Britain in the war. The Senior Staff and
research students of the laboratory, together with
members of other physics schools, were mobilized in the
first days of the war and developed for Britain and the
allied cause the centimetric radar which turned the
tide of the U-boat battle, directed the bombing of
Germany and helped decisively to sink the Japanese
fleet. The Liverpool branch of the Rutherford School,
with Frisch and Peierls from Birmingham, initiated the

theoretical explanation from December 1938. The work of
the latter was described in papers submitted to Nature,
and Bohr had intended his knowledge of their contents
to be held confidential until their publication.
However, that was not clear to Rosenfeld, who discussed
the work with John Wheeler and colleagues at Princeton.
Within days, the news spread to other physicists in the
USA, several of whom were able to reproduce the Hahn

begun.",

page 429, column 2, Penzias says of Gamow: ``he was
able to obtain a relation for the mass of galaxies
containing only fundamental constants and the single
assumption that half the initial neutrons collided to
form deuterons. This was quite a trick, even for him!
... they [Alpher and Gamow] concluded that the present
energy density of the relict radiation should
correspond to a temperature of a few degrees Kelvin.''.
That relict is the constant background radiation, the
discovery and measurement of which garnered Arno

Green's functions. A beautiful thing happens when you
make the transition from ordinary Green's functions to
thermal Green's functions. To make the transition, all
you have to do is to replace the real frequency of any
oscillation by a complex number whose real part is
frequency and whose imaginary part is temperature. Thus
thermal Green's functions are just as easy to calculate
as ordinary Green's functions. To put in the
temperature, you simply give the frequency an imaginary
component. This is mathematical magic which I will not
attempt to explain. Green's functions make such magic
possible. That is one of the sources of their power and

the paper but allowed his name to be put on it to fill
the gap between Alpher and Gamow. This joke, which was
Gamow's idea, made the paper famous. Meanwhile,
Wataghin's paper, which proposed that the elements were
formed in neutron stars, or more precisely in the
process of rapid expansion of neutron stars into
interstellar space, received much less attention.
Wataghin was then living in Brazil and was not widely
known. Unfortunately, it took many years to collect the
evidence which proved that, at least for the great

wrong and Wataghin was right.''",

of radioactivity research in the 1920s, and of the
emergence of nuclear physics in the 1930s. It is
concerned with the production, circulation and
certification of practice and knowledge in these fields
of scientific research.\par
By 1914, the study of radioactivity was confined to a
few centres --- Paris, Berlin, Manchester and Vienna
--- possessing relatively large quantities of radium.
The politics and organisation of this relatively closed
network were irrevocably altered by the First World
War. The election of Ernest Rutherford to the Cavendish
Chair of Experimental Physics at Cambridge in 1919
brought radioactivity research, and a programme of
Imperial physics, to the Cavendish Laboratory.
Rutherford's programme of research, based on his
speculative nuclear model of the atom (1911), sought to
map the internal topography of the atomic nucleus by
means of scintillation counting experiments.
Rutherford's work on artificial disintegration,
combined with F. W. Aston's elucidation of the isotopes
of the light elements by means of the
mass-spectrograph, brought about a profound change in
physicist's and chemist's views of atomic
architecture.\par
In the early 1920s, as laboratories in Europe recovered
from the war, the work of the Cavendish Laboratory was
unchallenged. During the 1920s, as other laboratories
entered the field of nuclear research, however, a
series of controversies brought into question the
reliability of the scintillation technique and the
integrity of all experimental results based upon it.
The foundational data yielded by the mass-spectrograph,
too, were contested, occasioning a `crisis of
certitude' in radioactivity research, and prompting a
redistribution of trust into alternative sources of
experimental evidence --- electronic (Geiger) counters
and cloud chambers. The crediting of these techniques
(which proved to be as problematic as those they
ostensibly replaced) opened up new kinds of problems to
experimental investigation.\par
In virtue of the new kinds of skills now required in
the laboratory, a re-definition of the investigative
community accompanied technical innovation. In the wake
of a prolonged controversy between Cambridge and
Vienna, a conference was convened at the Cavendish
Laboratory in 1928, as a direct result of which
researchers in several other European laboratories
(including Maurice de Broglie and the Joliot-Curies in
Paris, Bothe in Berlin and Pose at Halle) entered the
field of nuclear research, multiplying the number of
sites at which the new techniques were deployed.
Theoretical physicists like George Gamow, too, began to
apply the novel methods of wave mechanics to nuclear
problems, gradually transforming the bounds of the
possible and the plausible in nuclear research.",

methods of observing astrophysical phenomena from the
ground and in space have added to our knowledge of what
the universe is like now and what it was like in the
past, going back to the hot big bang. In this overview
of today's physical cosmology, P. J. E. Peebles shows
how observation has combined with theoretical elements
to establish the subject as a mature science, while he
also discusses the most notable recent attempts to
understand the origin and structure of the universe. A
successor to Peebles's classic volume Physical
Cosmology (Princeton, 1971), the book is a
comprehensive overview addressed not only to students
but also to scientists active in fields outside
cosmology. The first part of the work presents the
elements of physical cosmology, including the history
of the discovery of the expanding universe. The second
part, on the cosmological tests that measure the
geometry of spacetime, discusses general relativity
theory as the basis for the tests, and then surveys the
broad variety of ways the tests can be applied with the
new generations of telescopes and detectors. The third
part deals with the origin of galaxies and the
large-scale structure of the universe, and reviews
ideas about how the evolution of the universe might be
traced back to very early epochs when structure
originated. Each chapter begins with an introduction
that can be understood with no special knowledge beyond
undergraduate physics, and then progresses to more
specialized topics.",

before the observational discovery of the cosmic
microwave background radiation, George Gamow predicted
theoretically the temperature of this radiation. He
estimated it to be 7 K, which is very close to the
subsequently measured value of about 3 K. Gamow found
the present temperature of the background radiation on
the basis of general formulas of cosmological dynamics.
This prediction was in no way related to primordial
nucleosynthesis. This circumstance has and is still
causing misunderstanding in those cases in which the
authors have raised doubts about Gamow's results,
although an actual error has never been demonstrated. A
detailed analysis makes it possible to understand how
Gamow's calculation is possible. The problem lies in
the fact that Gamow makes a certain additional implicit
assumption which allows him to dispense with
information on nucleosynthesis. This assumption is
discussed in the context of the state of cosmology in
the period from the fifties to the seventies, and of
the current status of this branch of science.",

basis of the two theories of the nucleus which led to
the groundbreaking 1938 theory of nuclear fission by
Lise Meitner and Otto Frisch. The first theory,
developed between 1928 and 1936, was pioneered by
George Gamow, who suggested that the nucleus could be
considered to be like a drop of liquid, with energy
holding the subatomic particles together just as
tension holds together liquid particles. The second
theory is Niels Bohr's 1936 theory of the compound
nucleus, which describes the way in which particles may
be released from the nucleus or that the nucleus may be
destroyed by raising the energy of a particle which
strikes the nucleus. The author suggests that Meitner
and Frisch combined those two theories to reach a
theory of fission that describes how a nucleus may be
split and the energy that is produced. Although the
article does present the equations and the reasoning
behind the theories, it is largely understandable by a
general audience.",

Consequently, he published nothing further on the

nuclear physics in the summer of 1930.''",

Russia to attend the 31 October 1931 conference on
nuclear physics organized by Enrico Fermi. ``Unable to
leave Russia, he went to Leningrad, married Lyubov

Ettore Majorana, who according to Emilio Segr{\`e}
\ldots{} immediately accepted the neutron as a new
elementary particle, introduced a new neutron-proton
force involving the exchange of spin as well as charge.
A compelling argument for adopting Majorana's exchange
force over Heisenberg's was that it saturated at the
alpha particle, thus accounting for the high stability
of that particle, whereas Heisenberg's saturated at the
deuteron, a particle soon found to be not particularly
stable.''",

liquid-drop model of the nucleus.'' Bethe and Bacher's
148-page Part A nuclear physics article in
\booktitle{Reviews of Modern Physics} in 1936 has only
two brief references to Gamow's publications, and does
not discuss Gamow's liquid-drop model. Bethe's 181-page
Part B paper in that journal in 1937, and Livingston
and Bethe's 154-pages Part C paper, also in 1937, have
more references to Gamow's work, but primarily those
involved with his estimation of nuclear size, and his
theory of alpha decay. As a result, many physicists
incorrectly attributed the liquid-drop model to its use
by Bohr and Wheeler in their widely-read September 1939
\booktitle{Physical Review} article entitled ``The
Mechanism of Nuclear Fission''.",
remark-11 = "From page 118: ``Although Bohr was present at its
creation in Copenhagen at the end of 1928, and although
he commented on Gamow's contribution at the Solvay
conference in 1933, he did not cite Gamow as the
originator of the liquid-drop model in his and
Kalckar's paper of 1937, perhaps because his use of the
model departed so fundamentally from Gamow's. In any
case, Bohr's omission was immediately propagated in the
literature. Bethe, in the second part of his famous
\booktitle{Reviews of Modern Physics} article of April
1937 [co-written with R. F. Bacher], based his
discussion of the liquid-drop model on Bohr and
Kalckar's paper in its prepublication form, and as a
result he ironically and unwittingly cited Bohr and
Kalckar themselves as the originators of that
model.''",
remark-12 = "From page 118: ``Von Weizs{\"a}cker gave full credit
to Gamow in his book \booktitle{Die Atomkerne}
(Weizsacker 1937, pp. 40--44), and Gamow himself
discussed his liquid-drop model again in the second
edition of his book on atomic nuclei (Gamow 1937, pp.
4--8), but \booktitle{Bethe's Bible} was far more
influential than either von Weizs{\"a}cker's or Gamow's
book, and physicists generally followed Bohr's and
Bethe's leads in dropping Gamow's name from the
literature --- an omission that was not corrected in
Bohr and Wheeler's paper of 1939. Subsequently, perhaps
because of Bohr's particularly fruitful application of
the liquid-drop model to the understanding of nuclear
reactions, but no doubt also owing to Bohr's imposing
stature in the profession, physicists came to associate
the origin of that model with Bohr's name, not
Gamow's.''",

abstract = "Creation, in science, is like any other process,
highly individual. Nuclear physics, more than any other
branch of physics, has shaped the public perception of
science this century. Professor Mladjenovic has put
together a fascinating account of the scientists, and
their discoveries, in chronological order. It describes
the work of the founding fathers of nuclear physics,
from Gamow and Dirac, to Van de Graaff and Siegbahn
(amongst others). It is the author's view of the most
important discoveries made, and reflects, in part, the
research he has carried out. Topics include nuclear
spectroscopy, in particular beta-ray spectrometers and
internal conversion. The author starts from the
discovery of the neutron in 1932, to nuclear fission,
and closes with sub-atomic processes. The book is
written for students of modern physics courses, and as
a reference for those interested in the historical
development of the subject. Full references for further
reading, and to the original papers are provided.",

are a dime a dozen. Teller is something much better. He
helps everybody. He works on everybody's problem. He
never gets into controversies or has trouble with
anyone. He is by far your best choice.' That was the
Teller I knew when I worked with him for three months

easy to disagree fiercely about the details of the
reactor, as we often did, and remain friends.''",

coming under immediate attack by supporters of the

nucleosynthesis in stars; they considered the `Big
Bang' a fiction.''",

were not as famous or as decorated as some of their
colleagues in mid-twentieth-century physics, yet these
two friends had a profound influence on how we now see
the world, both on its largest scale (the universe) and
its smallest (genetic code). Their maverick approach to
research resulted in truly pioneering science. Wherever
these men ventured, they were catalysts for great
discoveries. Here Segr{\`e} honors them in his
typically inviting and elegant style and shows readers
how they were far from ``ordinary''. While portraying
their personal lives Segr{\`e}, a scientist himself,
gives readers an inside look at how science is
done--collaboration, competition, the influence of
politics, the role of intuition and luck, and the sense
of wonder and curiosity that fuels these extraordinary
minds. Ordinary Geniuses will appeal to the readers of
Simon Singh, Amir Aczel, and other writers exploring
the history of scientific ideas and the people behind
them.",

theory Bohr was so impressed with it, and with Gamow

enable him to spend the entire academic year 1928--1929
in his institute. Bohr also arranged for Gamow to visit
the Cavendish Laboratory in Cambridge, England, for
around five weeks, from early January to mid-February
1929. Gamow thrived in both places. In particular, just
before leaving Copenhagen for Cambridge, he invented
the liquid-drop model of the nucleus, which he
presented for the first time on 7 February 1929, at a
meeting of the Royal Society in London to which Ernest
Rutherford had invited him.''",

began to carry out experiments and around 3:00 A.M. on

1939). He recalled that four hours later the postman

Sweden (Frisch 1973, 833).''",

Bohr, in his and Kalckar's paper of October 1937, had
failed to cite Gamow as its creator, even though Gamow
had conceived it in Bohr's institute in December 1928,
perhaps because Bohr saw his application of it as being
so different from Gamow's. And Bohr's omission was
immediately propagated in the literature.''",

he was discussing cosmological problems with Einstein,
he remarked that the introduction of the cosmological
term was the ``biggest blunder'' he ever made in his
life. But the cosmological constant rears its ugly head
again and again and again. Apparently, Einstein himself
has never used the apercu ``biggest blunder'';
nevertheless a vast literature grew up around this
notion and associated it with Einstein. The present
work is prompted by questions put by Mario Livio in his
latest book ``Brilliant Blunders'' as to the phrase
``biggest blunder'': Did Einstein actually say,
``biggest blunder''? I show that in 1947 Einstein wrote
Lema{\^\i}tre that he found it ``very ugly'' that the
field law of gravitation should be composed of two
logically independent terms. Earlier, in 1922 Einstein
wrote Max Born that he committed ``a monumental blunder
some time ago''. In 1965 Born commented: ``Here
Einstein admits that the considerations which led him
to the positive-ray experiments were wrong: 'a
monumental [capital] blunder'''. It is likely that when
Einstein met Gamow he formulated his views in his
native German, and perhaps he told Gamow that
suggesting his cosmological constant was a ``blunder''.
I suggest that, Einstein perhaps told Gamow that the
cosmological constant was a ``capital blunder'' or a
``monumental blunder'', and Gamow could have
embellished Einstein's words to become the famous
apercu ``biggest blunder''.",

remark-01 = "From page 259: ``The central bodies in the processes
that lead to a decision regarding a science Nobel Prize
are the scientific committees elected among the members
of the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences. These
committees are small, consisting of only five
members. After having collected the nominations, the
physics committee deliberates on which candidate or
candidates to recommend and its decision then has to be
confirmed by the Academy's physics section and finally
by an Academy plenary session. The Academy will
almost always follow the recommendation of the
committee, but it is not obliged to do so. At rare
occasions, candidates chosen by the committee have been
rejected by the Academy, such as happened with Max
Planck's candidacy in 1908.''",
remark-02 = "On page 262, Kragh reports an anecdote of Hans Bethe
that ``I was the first to be honored for work in
astrophysics. Nobel's wife, he told me, had run off
with one of the leading mathematicians and astronomers
of the time. So the Prize bequest had specified that
the work honored [in physics] had to have practical
application and that neither pure mathematics nor
astronomy could be considered. Otherwise, Nobel feared,
this man would have been one of the first
winners''. However, this oft-repeated story is false;
Nobel never married, and the reasons for not awarding
his Prize for work in astronomy or astrophysics are
complex, and the subject of this article.",
remark-03 = "From pages 262--263: ``in the late 1930s, the
physicist J. Robert Oppenheimer did very important
theoretical work on neutron stars and black holes,
after which he left the field. Today his work is
sometimes considered to have been worthy of a Nobel
Prize.'' Oppenheimer was nominated four times between
1946 and 1967 for his work in nuclear physics, and
might have been considered for the 1967 Prize, but died
on 18 February 1967, and was thus ineligible; instead,
Hans Bethe received the 1967 Prize ``for his
contributions to the theory of nuclear reactions,
especially his discoveries concerning the energy
production in stars''.",
remark-04 = "From page 271: ``Perhaps even more than Lema{\^\i}tre,
the Russian--American physicist George Gamow deserves
credit for having pioneered modern big-bang
theory. Since the mid-1930s, Gamow focused increasingly
on stellar nuclear physics and during the years
following the end of World War II he developed the
first scenario of nuclear reactions taking place in the
very early universe. Much of this work, as it
culminated in a series of papers between 1948 and 1951,
was done in collaboration with his assistants Ralph
Alpher and Robert Herman. Gamow was nominated three
times for the physics Nobel Prize, but in none of the
cases for his work in cosmology.''",
remark-05 = "From page 275: ``Because of the 50-year's clause for
public access to material from the Nobel committees
and the Royal Swedish Academy, at present only
nominations and committee deliberations until 1966
can be examined. Already next year, it will be possible
to study the arguments leading to Bethe's belated Nobel
Prize and over the next years more interesting
material will be available. Then we will know if Zwicky
or someone else was nominated for the discovery of
dark matter, and we will know if the discovery and
analysis of the cosmic microwave background resulted in
nominations before the Nobel Prize of 1978 awarded to
Arno Penzias and Robert Wilson. Moreover, were there
any nominations for black-hole physics? It will also
be interesting to see how the Nobel Committee and the
Royal Swedish Academy justified the decision to keep
Hoyle out of the 1983 prize. And there will undoubtedly
be much more.''",

had been discovered at the time of the creation of the

would never have been introduced. It seems now so much
less justified to introduce such a member into the

autobiography: ``Einstein's original gravity equation
was correct, and changing it was a mistake. Much later,
when I was discussing cosmological problems with
Einstein, he remarked that the introduction of the
cosmological term was the biggest blunder he ever made
in his life.''",
remark-05 = "From page 326: ``Describing a meeting with Einstein in
1954, the Nobel laureate Linus Pauling famously
recorded in his diary: `He said that he had made one
great mistake --- when he signed the letter to
President Roosevelt recommending that atom bombs be
made.'\,'' The paper later suggests that Einstein meant

Collected Papers of Albert Einstein (CPAE), a unique

to the well-regarded annual conference on theoretical
physics hosted by Gamow at George Washington
University. Second, it is known, but seldom
acknowledged, that the alpha--beta--gamma paper was
reviewed and approved by Bethe before publication.
Finally, we note that Bethe acted as external examiner
for Alpher's doctoral thesis just a few months later.
Thus, the inclusion of Bethe's name as a co-author on a
key paper may have been a clever pun, but it was hardly
the mischievous, random act that is customarily
portrayed.''",
remark-08 = "From page 330: ``As the noted astronomer Vera Rubin, a
former postgraduate student of Gamow's, noted: ``It is
true that Gamow was funny and that he drank. It is also
true that he was a brilliant scientist, devoted friend
and concerned teacher, whose intuition exceeded that of
any scientist I have known.'\,''",
remark-09 = "On pages 331--32, the authors discuss Gamow's `first
successful explanation of the alpha-decay of the
nucleus in 1928', ``the phenomenon of quantum tunneling
[that] might allow the penetration of the atomic
nucleus by particles at relatively low energy, a
suggestion that led directly to the famous splitting of
the atomic nucleus by John Cockcroft and Ernest Walton
in 1932. Indeed, this experiment was much appreciated
by Einstein as the first experimental verification of
$E = m c^2$'', and ``Later in the 1930s, Gamow's
knowledge of nuclear and quantum physics played an
important role in the development of the Bohr--Gamow
liquid-drop model of the nucleus, while in the 1940s,
the pioneering research of Gamow and his colleagues
into nuclear physics in the early universe laid the
foundations of the modern theory of primordial
nucleosynthesis.''",

that, even in the face of the problematic timespan of
cosmic expansion, Einstein saw the use of the
cosmological constant term in his later years as an
error.''",

abstract = "This collection is the first proceedings volume of the
lectures delivered within the framework of the Israel
Colloquium for the History, Philosophy and Sociology of
Science, in its year of inauguration 1981--82. It thus
marks the beginning of a new venture. Rather than
attempting to express an ideology of the infinity of
science, this collection in fact aims at presenting a
kaleidoscopic picture of the variety of views about
science and within science. Three main disciplines come
together in this volume. The first of scientists, the
second of historians and sociologists of science, the
third of philosophers interested in science. The
scientists try to present the scientific body of
knowledge in areas where the scientific adventure
kindles the imagination of the culture of our time. At
the same of course, they register their own reflections
on the nature of this body time, of knowledge and on
its likely course of future development. For the
historians and sociologists, in contrast, science is
there to be studied diachronically, as a process, on
the one hand, and synchronically, as a social
institution, on the other. As for the philosophers,
finally, their contribution to this series is not meant
to remain within the confines of what is usually seen
as the philosophy of science proper, or to be limited
to the analysis of the scientific mode of reasoning and
thinking: it is allowed, indeed encouraged, to
encompass alter native, and on occasion even competing,
modes of thought.",

abstract = "This is the second volume of Proceedings of the Israel
Colloquium for the History, Philosophy and Sociology of
Science. At the time that this preface is being
written, the fourth annual series of lectures within
the framework of the Israel Colloquium is already
behind us and the fifth is underway. The Israel
Colloquium thus has now not only a future to look
forward to but also a past which is a source of pride
and pleasure for those who take part in this venture.
The Israel Colloquium has, I believe, struck roots in
the Israeli scientific and intellectual life, while
drawing on the ever-increasing readiness of the
international scientific and intellectual community for
continuous support. As in the first volume, here too
the papers presented, taken together, attempt a
threefold representation of science and of the
scientific activity: the historical, the social, and
the systematic. A novel focal point in this volume is
the treatment of some case studies illuminating
historical, social, and philosophical aspects of
medicine. Another center of gravity here is the
Eddington Centennial Symposium which was a main event
in the Colloquium activity of the 1982--83 series. This
is a fitting place for me to report with sorrow the
untimely death in the summer of 1984 of Solly G. Cohen,
one of Israel's leading scientists, who is among the
contributors to this volume.",

abstract = "For over three millennia, most people could understand
the universe only in terms of myth, religion, and
philosophy. Between 1920 and 1970, cosmology
transformed into a branch of physics. With this
remarkably rapid change came a theory that would
finally lend empirical support to many long-held
beliefs about the origins and development of the entire
universe: the theory of the big bang. In this book,
Helge Kragh presents the development of scientific
cosmology for the first time as a historical event, one
that embroiled many famous scientists in a controversy
over the very notion of an evolving universe with a
beginning in time. In rich detail he examines how the
big-bang theory drew inspiration from and eventually
triumphed over rival views, mainly the steady-state
theory and its concept of a stationary universe of
infinite age. In the 1920s, Alexander Friedmann and
Georges Lemaitre showed that Einstein's general
relativity equations possessed solutions for a universe
expanding in time. Kragh follows the story from here,
showing how the big-bang theory evolved, from Edwin
Hubble's observation that most galaxies are receding
from us, to the discovery of the cosmic microwave
background radiation. Sir Fred Hoyle proposed instead
the steady-state theory, a model of dynamic equilibrium
involving the continuous creation of matter throughout
the universe. Although today it is generally accepted
that the universe started some ten billion years ago in
a big bang, many readers may not fully realize that
this standard view owed much of its formation to the
steady-state theory. By exploring the similarities and
tensions between the theories, Kragh provides the
reader with indispensable background for understanding
much of today's commentary about our universe.",

famous for his hallmark works on the completeness of
first-order logic, the incompleteness of number theory,
and the consistency --- with the other widely accepted
axioms of set theory --- of the axiom of choice and of
the generalized continuum hypothesis. It explores
current research, advances, and ideas for future
directions not only in the foundations of mathematics
and logic, but also in the fields of computer science,
artificial intelligence, physics, cosmology,
philosophy, theology, and the history of science. The
discussion is supplemented by personal reflections from
several scholars who knew G{\"o}del personally,
providing some interesting insights into his life. By
putting his ideas and life's work into the context of
current thinking and perceptions, this book will extend
the impact of G{\"o}del's fundamental work in
mathematics, logic, philosophy, and other disciplines
for future generations of researchers.",

on Stellar Populations, Chemical Abundances as
Population Tracers, Metal-Poor Stars and the Chemical
Enrichment of the Universe, The Stellar and Sub-Stellar
Initial Mass Function of Simple and Composite
Populations, The Galactic Nucleus, The Galactic Bulge,
Open Clusters and Their Role in the Galaxy, Star Counts

Globular Cluster Dynamical Evolution, Dynamics of Disks
and Warps, Mass Distribution and Rotation Curve in the
Galaxy, Dark Matter in the Galactic Dwarf Spheroidal
Satellites, and History of Dark Matter in Galaxies. All
chapters of the handbook were written by practicing
professionals. They include sufficient background
material and references to the current literature to
allow readers to learn enough about a specialty within
astronomy, astrophysics and cosmology to get started on
their own practical research projects. In the spirit of
the series Stars and Stellar Systems published by
Chicago University Press in the 1960s and 1970s, each
chapter of Planets, Stars and Stellar Systems can stand
on its own as a fundamental review of its respective
sub-discipline, and each volume can be used as a
textbook or recommended reference work for advanced
undergraduate or postgraduate courses. Advanced
students and professional astronomers in their roles as

Stars and Stellar Systems as a comprehensive and
pedagogical reference work on astronomy, astrophysics

abstract = "\booktitle{Unravelling the Mystery of the Atomic
Nucleus} tells the story of how, in the span of barely
sixty years, we made a transition from the belief that
matter was composed of indivisible atoms, to the
discovery that in the heart of each atom lies a nucleus
which is ten thousand times smaller than the atom,
which nonetheless carries almost all its mass, and the
transformations of which involve energies that could
never be reached by chemical reactions. It was not a
smooth transition. The nature of nuclei, their
properties, the physical laws which govern their
behaviour, and the possibility of controlling to some
extent their transformations, were discovered in
discontinuous steps, following paths which occasionally
led to errors which in turn were corrected by further
experimental discoveries. The story begins in 1896 when
radioactivity was unexpectedly discovered and continues
up to the nineteen-sixties. The authors describe the
spectacular progress made by physics during that time,
which not only revealed a new form of matter, namely
nuclei, but also modified our way of thinking by
developing quantum mechanics and the theory of
relativity. The book is written in a clear and non
mathematical language which makes it both accessible
and instructive to laymen, physicists and students, as
well as to historians of science. It delves into
subjects which are of utmost importance for the
understanding of matter in our universe and for
understanding how this knowledge was achieved.",
