摘要:

The world's largest solar telescope, located at the Kitt Peak National Observatory in Arizona, has been named in memory of the late Robert R. McMath, in recognition of his many years of devoted service to solar astronomy. Dr. McMath, who died in January of this year, served as director of the McMath‐Hulbert Observatory, as professor of astronomy at the University of Michigan, and as board chairman of the Association of Universities for Research in Astronomy, Inc., which operates the new national observatory for the National Science Foundation. He was a leading advocate of the belief that the research needs of the United States demanded the construction of a large solar telescope, and he and Ira S. Bowen, director of the Mt. Wilson and Palomar Observatories, are credited with having been instrumental in bringing those needs to the attention of the National Science Foundation.

摘要:

The achievement of a sustained magnetic field of 152 000 gauss, the strongest ever produced, has been reported by the Naval Research Laboratory. The field was produced at NRL's magnet facility in Washington, D.C., with a solenoid magnet incorporating basic design principles described by Francis Bitter of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in 1938, combined with improvements developed at NRL during the last fifteen years. The present figure is 26 kG greater than the previous record, established a year ago at MIT's Lincoln Laboratory with a solenoid designed by H. H. Kolm.

摘要:

The University of Maryland has received a $150 000 grant from the US Weather Bureau to be used by the University's Department of Physics and Astronomy to strengthen its newly established Center of Atmospheric and Space Physics. The grant will provide new equipment and research facilities at the Center, and will support the addition of several new members to the research group. The Department expects the staff of the Center to include six or seven faculty members and at least ten graduate students this fall, and it is anticipated that that total will be approximately doubled within the next few years.
