摘要:
ARRANGEMENTS for four additional special studies to be conducted by Federal and private survey groups as part of the previously announced broad National Science Foundation survey of science in the United States were announced on June 18th by Alan T. Waterman, director of the Foundation.

摘要:
THE Atomic Energy Commission announced on June 29th that it had reached a decision in “the matter of Dr. J. Robert Oppenheimer”. By a vote of four to one the AEC decided that Oppenheimer should be denied access to restricted data. Commissioners Lewis L. Strauss, Thomas E. Murray, Eugene M. Zuckert, and Joseph Campbell voted to deny clearance, and Commissioner Henry D. Smyth voted to reinstate clearance. Strauss, Zuckert, and Campbell signed the majority opinion, Murray concurred with the majority in a separate opinion, and Smyth submitted a dissenting opinion. Both Zuckert and Campbell issued statements in amplification of their views.

摘要:
CONSTRUCTION of two $1.2 million linear accelerators (one at Yale University and the other at the University of California Radiation Laboratory) has been authorized by the Atomic Energy Commission, according to an announcement made on May 20th. Both instruments will accelerate heavy particles (atomic nuclei ranging from beryllium, with an atomic weight of 9, to neon, with an atomic weight of 20) to an energy of approximately ten Mev for each particle in the nucleus. This will be sufficient to allow the nuclei to interact with even the heaviest known elements. The accelerator at UCRL will be used primarily in nuclear chemistry studies such as the possible production and identification of new elements and new isotopes of known elements. The Yale machine will be used principally in studies of the physics of heavy particle nuclear interactions.

摘要:
Every physicist worthy of the name looks forward to attending one or more meetings of physical societies annually. Whatever his reasons for going—and they are many—he returns with some measure of inspiration as a reward. Often, as we say in the trade, he “gets an idea’’ from speaker or friend, or, as President Houston of the Rice Institute once put it, “He may get an idea of where to get a contract”, a very important consideration these days.

摘要:
More than any other government agency, the AEC relies upon other people to do its work. The AEC has only 6000 employees, almost none of whom engage in technical work. Their function is to arrange for, and coordinate, the work of more than 80 000 employees of operating contractors, not to mention the construction. The atomic energy job is being done by American industry and American science—both operating in more or less their normal patterns.
