Bacher's Copy- From His Library But Not Marked As Such. Per Wikipedia Robert Fox Bacher 1905 - 2004 Was An American Nuclear Physicist And One Of The Leaders Of The Manhattan Project. Bacher Obtained His Undergraduate Degree And Doctorate From The University Of Michigan Writing His 1930 Doctoral Thesis Under The Supervision Of Samuel Goudsmit On The Zeeman Effect Of The Hyperfine Structure Of Atomic Levels. After Graduate Work At The California Institute Of Technology Caltech And The Massachusetts Institute Of Technology Mit He Accepted A Job At Columbia University. In 1935 He Accepted An Offer From Hans Bethe To Work With Him At Cornell University In Ithaca New York. It Was There That Bacher Collaborated With Bethe On His Book Nuclear Physics. A: Stationary States Of Nuclei 1936 The First Of Three Books That Would Become Known As The "Bethe Bible". In December 1940 Bacher Joined The Radiation Laboratory At Mit Although He Did Not Immediately Cease His Research At Cornell Into The Neutron Cross Section Of Cadmium. The Radiation Laboratory Was Organized Into Two Sections One For Incoming Radar Signals And One For Outgoing Radar Signals. Bacher Was Appointed To Handle The Incoming Signals Section. Here He Gained Valuable Experience In Administration Coordinating Not Just The Efforts Of His Scientists But Also Those Of General Electric And Rca. In 1942 Bacher Was Approached By Robert Oppenheimer To Join The Manhattan Project At Its New Laboratory In Los Alamos New Mexico. It Was At Bacher's Insistence That Los Alamos Became A Civilian Rather Than A Military Laboratory. At Los Alamos Bacher Headed The Project's P Physics Division And Later Its G Gadget Division. Bacher Worked Closely With Oppenheimer And The Two Men Discussed The Project's Progress On A Daily Basis. After The War Bacher Became Director Of The Laboratory Of Nuclear Studies At Cornell. He Also Served On The U.S. Atomic Energy Commission The Civilian Agency That Replaced The Wartime Manhattan Project And In 1947 He Became One Of Its Inaugural Commissioners. He Left In 1949 To Become Head Division Of Physics Mathematics And Astronomy At Caltech. He Brought Richard Feynman From Cornell To Caltech But Was Unable To Convince Feynman To Work For The Government Also. He Was Appointed A Member Of The President's Science Advisory Committee Psac In 1958. In 1962 He Became Caltech's Vice President And Provost. He Stepped Down From The Post Of Provost In 1970 And Became A Professor Emeritus In 1976. Mcgraw-Hill Book Co hardcover

At The End Of His English Journal Article He Thanks Siegbahn And Niels Bohr"For The Great Interest They Have Shown In My Work" And "My Friend Mr. H. A. Kramers For His Help In Reading The Manuscript". Per Wikipedia Dirk Coster October 5 1889 - February 12 1950 Was A Dutch Physicist. In Leiden He Was Influenced By The Inspiring Lectures Of Paul Ehrenfest And In 1916 He Obtained His M.Sc. Degree. From 1916 To 1920 Coster Was Assistant Of Lodewijk Siertsema And Wander De Haas At The Delft University Of Technology Where In 1919 He Obtained An Engineer's Degree In Electrical Engineering. In 1920 And 1921 He Did Research At Lund University Under Manne Siegbahn On X-Ray Spectroscopy Of Different Elements. Coster's Thesis Was On This Subject And He Obtained His Ph.D. Degree In 1922. Coster Is Known As The Co-Discoverer Of Hafnium Hf Element 72 In 1923 Along With George De Hevesy By Means Of X-Ray Spectroscopic Analysis Of Zirconium Ore. The Discovery Took Place In Copenhagen. From August 1922 Until The Summer Of 1923 Coster Worked In Niels Bohr's Institute In Copenhagen. Within A Few Months He Co-Authored A Landmark Publication With Bohr On X-Ray Spectroscopy And The Periodic System Of The Elements. In Addition He Worked With Chemist George De Hevesy On The Identification Of Element No. 72. Element 72 Had Been Known To Be A Gap In The Sequence Of Elements Since 1914 When Henry Moseley Created An Experimental Technique For Placing The Elements In A Definite Sequence. Radiochemist Fritz Paneth Suggested That Element 72 Might Be Found In Ores Of Zirconium. Some Histories Incorrectly Attribute This Suggestion To Physicist Niels Bohr. Bohr Published A Prediction Of The Electronic Configuration Of Element 72 In 1923. Von Hevesy Had Been Working With Bohr At The Time.After Coster Returned From Copenhagen He Became Hendrik Lorentz' Assistant At The Teylers Museum In Haarlem Where He Developed An X-Ray Spectrometer. In 1924 He Was Appointed At The University Of Groningen Where He Was The Successor Of Wander De Haas. At Groningen He Started An Active Research Program In X-Ray Spectroscopy.In 1938 He Traveled To Berlin To Convince Lise Meitner That She Had To Leave Germany To Escape The Persecution Of The Jews. Together They Went By Train To Groningen; At The Dutch Border Coster Persuaded German Immigration Officers That She Had Permission To Travel To The Netherlands. She Stayed With Him For Several Weeks. From There She Went On To Sweden By Way Of Copenhagen.During The German Occupation Of Holland Coster Also Helped Jews Hide From The Nazis. From Wikipedia. Ahh We Lesser Mortals.

Introduction To Atomic And Nuclear Physics Class Text For Physics 112 A - B- C California Institute Of Technology 1953-1954

1953030055Pasadena: California Institute Of Technology 1953 1954 1953. 1st Edition Thus . No Binding. Very Good. 433 Pp Appendices And Errata Sheet. Three Volumes In . Mimeo Class Text With Class Notes And Tests By A Student Who Later Became A Prominent Jpl Astronomer. Handwritten Comments And Grades By Leighton. Robert Benjamin Leighton September 10 1919 - March 9 1997 Was A Prominent American Experimental Physicist Who Spent His Professional Career At The California Institute Of Technology Caltech. His Work Over 58 Years Spanned Solid State Physics Cosmic Ray Physics The Beginnings Of Modern Particle Physics Solar Physics The Planets Infrared Astronomy And Millimeter- And Submillimeter-Wave Astronomy. In The Latter Four Fields His Pioneering Work Opened Up Entirely New Areas Of Research That Subsequently Developed Into Vigorous Scientific Communities. His Bachelor's Master's And Ph.D. Degrees Were All From Caltech; He Joined The Faculty In 1949 And Later Served As Division Chair Of Physics Mathematics And Astronomy From 1970 To 1975. Leighton Was A Renowned Teacher At Caltech. His Principles Of Modern Physics Published In 1959 Was A Standard And Influential Textbook. After Richard Feynman's Lectures In Physics Course In The Early 1960S Leighton Spent Over Two Years Reworking The Tape-Recorded Text Into Publishable Form: The Feynman Lectures On Physics Which Were Published In 1964 And 1966 And Which Have Enjoyed Perennial Success Ever Since. In Addition He Co-Authored With Robbie Vogt A Set Of Problems To Accompany The Feynman Lectures. In The Early 1960S Leighton Developed And Fabricated A Novel Inexpensive Infrared Telescope Which Included A Simple Array Of Eight Lead-Sulfide Photocells. These Cells Were Surplus From The Defense Industry; They Had Been Developed For The Sidewinder Missile'S Heat-Seeking Guidance System. Starting In 1965 He And Gerry Neugebauer Used The New Telescope To Sweep The Roughly 70 Percent Of The Sky Visible From Mt. Wilson Observatory Collecting The Data As Squiggles On A Strip-Chart Recorder. This Began A New Area Of Infrared Astronomy. The Resulting Two-Micron Sky Survey Published In 1969 Contained 5612 Infrared Sources The Vast Majority Of Which Had Been Previously Uncataloged. Some Of These Have Been Found To Be New Stars Still Surrounded By Their Dusty Pre-Stellar Shells While Others Are Supergiant Stars In The Last Stages Of Their Evolution Embedded In Expanding Dusty Shells Of Matter Ejected By The Stars Themselves. Leighton's Development Of Photographic Equipment During The Mid-1950S Had Allowed Him To Obtain The Best Pictures Of The Planets Ever Attained Anywhere To That Time From The 60 And 100-Inch Telescopes And Led To His Work As Team Leader At The Jet Propulsion Laboratory Jpl For The Imaging Science Investigations On The Mariner 4 6 And 7 Missions To Mars During The Middle 1960S. As Team Leader And An Experienced Experimental Physicist Leighton Played A Key Role In Forming And Guiding The Development Of Jpl's First Digital Television System For Use In Deep Space. He Also Contributed To The First Efforts At Image Processing And Enhancement Techniques Made Possible By The Digital Form Of The Imaging Data. He Received The Space Science Award From The American Institute Of Aeronautics And Astronautics For The Mariner Television Experiments In 1967 And The Nasa Exceptional Scientific Achievement Medal In 1971. In The 1970S Leighton's Interest Shifted To The Development Of Large Inexpensive Dish Antenna Which Could Be Used To Pursue Millimeter-Wave Interferometry And Submillimeter-Wave Astronomy. Leighton Shared The Rumsford Prize In 1986 For Advancements In Infrared Astronomy And Won The James Craig Watson Medal In 1988 For His Work As Creator And Exploiter Of New Instruments And Techniques That Opened Whole New Areas Of Astronomy - Solar Oscillations Infrared Surveys Spun Telescopes And Large Millimeter-Wave Reflectors.Leighton And Feynman Were Close Personal Friends. One Of Leighton's Sons Ralph Also Collaborated With Feynman On Several Books. California Institute Of Technology 1953 1954 unknown

The Nucleon-Nucleon Interaction: Experimental And Phenomenological Aspects

1963032953New York: Interscience Publishers ' John Wiley & Sons 1963. 1st Edition 1st Printing. Hardcover. Very Good /No Jacket. Ix 249 Pp. Beige Boards Printed In Blue. Light Wear At Corners And Part Of Front Spine Edge Bumping To Bottom Of Spine. Inscribed By The Author "To One Of My Few Collaborators Who Worked On Something Different. Richard Wilson." Richard Wilson Born 29 April 1926 Is A British Born American Physicist. His Original Fields Were Nuclear And Elementary Particle Physics But Branched Out Into Applications Of Physics In Other Disciplines. He Is Now Mallinckrodt Professor Of Physics Emeritus. At Harvard University.He Has Lectured In 44 Different Countries. In 1988 He Became A Member Of The Science Advisory Board Of The Atlantic Legal Foundation A Public Interest Law Foundation. Wilson's First Research Was On The Properties Of The Nucleon. He Started By Using Radioactive Sources And Then Using First The Cyclotron At Aere Harwell Uk Then The Cyclotron At Harvard University Usa. This Work Is Described In Many Papers And In This Book. At Harvard He Became An Enthusiastic Supporter Of The Cambridge Electron Accelerator And Was Chairman Of The Management Committee From 1961 To 1968. He Became Known For His Work On Nucleon Form Factors An Interest Which Continues. He Was A Trustee Of The Universities Research Association From 1987 To 1993 And Studied The Inelastic Form Factors. Wilson Was An Early Proponent Of Electron-Positron Colliding Beams. And Worked Thereon In Frascati Cea And Cornell University. In 1991 He Realized That The General Public Was No Longer Automatically Supporting Physicists And Began A Career Explaining The Positive Aspects Of Radiation Use As Well As Its Risks And Dangers. In This He Used The "Hands On" Style Of An Experimental Physicist And Soon Became An Expert On Nuclear Accidents: Three Mile Island Chernobyl & Fukushima. He Is Particularly Known For His Visits To Chernobyl Being The First American Scientist To Go To The Plant And Measure Radioactivity Levels Thereby Exposing Himself To The Dangers. He Expanded His Interests To Other Hazards And Thereby Helped To Found The Field Of Risk Analysis. In This Work He Realized That While It Is Interesting What Scientists Say In Their Conferences; The Us Public Is More Concerned About Of What Congress Enacts In Response But Most Importantly What The Courts Said Last Week. This Realization Has Led To An Activity On Emphasizing To The Courts The Fundamental Thinking Of A Physicist. This Includes The Role Of Expert Witnesses In Court Cases.
