Chien-Shiung Wu (Chinese: ???; 1912 - 1997) Was A Chinese-American Particle And Experimental Physicist Who Made Significant Contributions In The Field Of Nuclear And Particle Physics. Wu Worked On The Manhattan Project, Where She Helped Develop The Process For Separating Uranium Into Uranium-235 And Uranium-238 Isotopes By Gaseous Diffusion. She Is Best Known For Conducting The Wu Experiment, Which Proved That Parity Is Not Conserved. This Discovery Resulted In Her Colleagues Tsung-Dao Lee And Chen-Ning Yang Winning The 1957 Nobel Prize In Physics, While Wu Herself Was Awarded The Inaugural Wolf Prize In Physics In 1978. Her Expertise In Experimental Physics Evoked Comparisons To Marie Curie. Her Nicknames Include The "First Lady Of Physics", The "Chinese Madame Curie" And The "Queen Of Nuclear Research". In September 1944, Wu Was Contacted By The Manhattan District Engineer, Colonel Kenneth Nichols. Wu Was Frustrated With Her Lack Of Professorships And Volunteered To Help Out In The Project. The Newly Commissioned B Reactor, The First Practical Nuclear Reactor Ever Built, Which Was Located At The Hanford Site Had Run Into An Unexpected Problem, Starting Up And Shutting Down At Regular Intervals. John Archibald Wheeler And Partner Enrico Fermi Suspected That A Fission Product, Xe-135, With A Half-Life Of 9.4 Hours, Was The Culprit, And Might Be A Neutron Poison Or Absorber. Segrè Then Remembered The 1940 Phd Thesis That Wu Had Done For Him At Berkeley On The Radioactive Isotopes Of Xe And Told Fermi To "Ask Ms. Wu". After Fermi Contacted Wu, Segrè Visited Her Dorm Room Together With Nichols And Collected The Typewritten Draft Prepared For The Physical Review. The Suspicions Of Fermi And Wheeler Came True, Wu's Paper Unknowingly Verified That Xe-135 Was Indeed The Culprit For The B Reactor; It Turned Out To Have An Unexpectedly Large Neutron Absorption Cross-Section. Wu Also Used Her Findings In Radioactive Uranium Separation To Build The Standard Model For Producing Enriched Uranium To Fuel The Atomic Bombs At The Oak Ridge, Tennessee Facility As Well As Build Innovative Geiger Counters. Wu, Like Most Involved Physicists In Their Later Years Distanced Herself From The Manhattan Project Due To Its Destructive Outcome And Recommended To The Taiwanese President Chiang Kai-Shek In 1962 To Never Build Nuclear Weapons. In November 1949, Wu Experimented With The Conclusions Of Einstein's Epr Thought Experiment, Which Called Quantum Entanglement "Spooky Action At A Distance". Wu Managed To Be The First To Establish The Phenomenon And Validity Of Entanglement Using Photons Through Observing Angular Correlation. Specifically, The Experiment Carried Out By Wu Was The First Important Confirmation Of Quantum Results Relevant To A Pair Of Entangled Photons As Applicable To The Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen (Epr) Paradox. In Her Post-War Research, Wu Continued To Investigate Beta Decay. In 1949, Wu Completely Established Fermi's Theory And Showed How Beta Decay Worked, Especially In Creating Electrons, Neutrinos, And Positrons.At Columbia, Wu Knew The Chinese-Born Theoretical Physicist Tsung-Dao Lee Personally. In The Mid-1950S, Lee And Another Chinese Theoretical Physicist, Chen Ning Yang, Grew To Question A Hypothetical Law Of Elementary Particle Physics, The "Law Of Conservation Of Parity". The Discovery Of Parity Violation Was A Major Contribution To Particle Physics And The Development Of The Standard Model. The Discovery Actually Set The Stage For The Development Of The Model, As The Model Relied On The Idea Of Symmetry Of Particles And Forces And How Particles Can Sometimes Break That Symmetry.

Bethe, Hans (1906-2005); Fred Hoyle (1915-2001); and Rudolf Peierls (1907-95). Interpretation of beta-disintegration data. Offprint from Nature 143 (1939). [3]pp. 216 x 141 mm. Bifolium; without wrappers as issued. Some light creasing but very good. First Edition, Offprint Issue. The true author of the present paper was British astrophysicist Fred Hoyle, famous for his theory of the creation (nucleosynthesis) of chemical elements by nuclear fusion within stars. In the late 1930s Hoyle, then a graduate student at Cambridge University's Cavendish Laboratory, had been assigned to investigate the discrepancies between Fermi's 1934 theory of beta decay and what experimenters were actually measuring. Hoyle's advisor, Rudolf Peierls, was a close friend of Hans Bethe, and it was from Peierls that Hoyle learned of Bethe's suspicion that the beta-decay discrepancies might be due to problems with the experiments rather than with Fermi's theory. Peierls asked Hoyle to investigate and Hoyle, together with some Cavendish colleagues, found a way to get the problematic experimental results to line up with Fermi's theory. The Cavendish physicists wanted Hoyle to publish his findings, but this angered Peierls, who accused Hoyle of stealing Bethe's ideas. "As a compromise the paper eventually appeared in 1939 under the authorship of Bethe, Hoyle and Peierls. In it they showed that the experimental results had been wrongly interpreted, and they predicted circumstances under which gamma rays should be observed. The prediction was entirely correct, but Hoyle's relationship with Peierls . . . never recovered from this spat" (Mitton, Fred Hoyle: A Life in Science, pp. 54-55). .

Bethe, Hans (1906-2005) and Robert E. Marshak (1916-92). Los Alamos University lecture notes: Electromagnetic theory. Notes by E. D. Klema. Dittoed typescript, numbered "53." [2], 154ff. N.p., n.d. [1948]. 280 x 216 mm. In cardboard folder with metal fasteners, typed label on front cover, light wear at lower corners. Very good. First Printing, and scarce, with OCLC recording copies in only four libraries (Cornell, UC Berkeley, Smithsonian, American Institute of Physics). Hans Bethe helped develop both the atom bomb and the hydrogen bomb, and received the Nobel Prize in 1967 for his work in the theory of stellar nucleosynthesis; Robert Marshak, one of Bethe's doctoral students, came up with the explanation for how heat-driven radiation waves (Marshak waves) work in extremely high temperatures. Both Bethe and Marshak were members of the Manhattan Project, the top-secret government program at Los Alamos that designed and built the first atomic weapons during World War II. After the war both men continued their association with the Los Alamos National Laboratory, participating in the so-called "Los Alamos University," a program of technical lectures given as semi-academic courses to junior laboratory personnel. .

[Bethe:] Pp. 434-456. [Oppenheimer & Volkoff:] Pp. 374-381. [Entire volume: 1300 pp.]. First printing of "ENERGY PRODUCTION IN STARS", Hans Bethe's seminal Nobel Prize winning paper on neucleosynthesis. It was the first time an astrophysical subject was recognized by the Nobel Committee. Bethe's work on nuclear reactions led him to discover the reactions that supply the energy in stars. In this paper, Bethe shows that "the most important source of energy in ordinary stars is the reactions of carbon and nitrogen with protons" (Bethe, Energy Production in Stars). Bethe began by analyzing the different possibilities for reactions by which hydrogen is fused into helium. He showed two processes to be the sources of energy generation capable of keeping stars hot. The first, the proton-proton chain, is the dominant energy source in stars with masses up to about the mass of the Sun. The second, the carbon-nitrogen-oxygen cycle, is the most important in more massive stars. "ON MASSIVE NEUTRON CORES" and NEUTRON STARS AND THE TOLMAN-OPPENHEIMER-VOLKOV LIMIT, two landmark papers which "for the first time laid a general relativistic theory of stellar structure" (Pais, Subtle is the Lord), thereby proving Einstein wrong in his conclusion that no star could collapse indefinitely.In the paper they addressed the question that Landau's paper, and also Oppenheimer and Serber's, had failed to consider: what is the maximum mass for stable neutron-star? This paper applied Tolman's method to calculate the gravitational equilibrium of a neutron star and predict the conditions under which it will continue collapsing into a black hole (the Tolman-Oppenheimer-Volkov Limit). The issue contain several other papers of interest: 1. Tolman, Richard.
