摘要:

Two hundred high school physics, chemistry, and mathematics teachers from twenty‐four states will be granted fellowships for study this year under an expanded summer fellowship program underwritten by the General Electric Company. Fifty physics teachers will take part in the summer program at Case Institute of Technology, Cleveland, Ohio, and a like number of physics and chemistry teachers will study at Union College, Schenectady, N.Y. The G‐E summer programs for mathematics teachers will be carried out at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, Troy, N.Y., and at Purdue University, Lafayette, Indiana. Each college selects its candidates on the basis of their qualifications and credentials and conducts the six‐week course, which can be taken for credit toward an advanced degree. Applications should be made to the colleges.

摘要:

The Copley Medalof the British Royal Society for the Advancement of Science has been awarded to P. A. M. Dirac, Lucasian professor of mathematics at Cambridge University, for his contributions to the present understanding of quantum theory, elementary particles, and electromagnetic fields. Included among the other awards presented during the Royal Society's 290th anniversary meeting last month were the Hughes Medal, which was given to Philip I. Dee of Glasgow University for his work leading to the wartime development of microwave radar, the Sylvester Medal, which went to Cambridge mathematician Abram S. Besicovitch, and the Rumford Medal, which was won this year by Fritz Zernike of Holland, professor of theoretical physics at the University of Groningen and the discoverer of the principle of phase contrast, for his development of a new and valuable technique in microscopy.
