Walter Kohn
This is not a science book, nor even a book about science, although most of the contributors are scientists. It is a book of personal stories about Walter Kohn, a theoretical physicist and winner of half of the 1998 Nobel Prize in Chemistry. Walter Kohn originated and/or refined a number of very important theoretical approaches and concepts in solid-state physics. He is known in particular for Density-Functional Theory. This book represents a kind of "oral history" about him, gathered - in anticipation of his 80th birthday - from former students, collaborators, fellow-scientists, and friends.
Primordial Nucleosynthesis and Evolution of Early Universe
The International Conference "Primordial Nucleosynthesis and Evolution of Early Universe" was held in the presence of Prof. William Fowler on 4 - 8 September 1990 at the Sanjo Conference Hall, the University of Tokyo. This conference was co-sponsored by IUPAP, the International Union of Pure and Applied Physics, and by the University of Tokyo. The number of participants was 156, 58 from 15 foreign countries and 98 from Japan. About 120 contributions were submitted orally or as posters. Originally this conference was planned as a small gathering on Primordial Nucleosynthesis as indicated in the title, since primordial nucleosynthesis is the most important probe of the early stage of the unive...
Prognostic and Predictive Factors in Autoimmune Connective Tissue Disorders
Autoimmune connective tissue diseases, including systemic lupus erythematosus, Sjögren’s syndrome, systemic sclerosis, dermatomyositis, rheumatoid arthritis, and mixed connective tissue diseases are complex conditions that commonly involve multiple organs and systems. The pathogenesis of many autoimmune diseases is elusive, and the disease course is extremely variable, with indolent or rapidly progressive case subsets. The heterogeneity and patient-to-patient variability of autoimmune connective tissue disease extend to their clinical manifestations, autoantibody profiles, speed of disease progression, the constellation of target organ effects, response to treatment, and survival. Despite...
Inner Space/Outer Space
Inner Space/Outer Space brings together much of the exciting work contributing to a new synthesis of modern physics. Particle physicists, concerned with the "inner space" of the atom, are making discoveries that their colleagues in astrophysics, studying outer space, can use to develop and test hypotheses about the events that occurred in the microseconds after the Big Bang and that shaped the universe as we know it today. The papers collected here, from scores of scientists, constitute the proceedings of the first major international conference on research at the interface of particle physics and astrophysics, held in May 1984. The editors have written introductions to each major section that draw out the central themes and elaborate on the primary implications of the papers that follow.
