摘要:

In reviewing current thinking in the U.S.A. on specific curriculum contents of the basic university physics courses, it is well to distinguish between the three types of course (A, B, and C), and to direct attention to the development of ideas as expressed in recent publications over the past few years in so far as they appear to me to reflect generally held views.

摘要:

Some optical experiments, indicating that an illuminated edge acts in all directions like a linear radiator, are described. A new physical theory of diffraction is put forward based on action-at-a-distance, in which the re-radiating molecules of a screen are treated as equivalent to a thin layer of half-wave dipoles, to which the Fresnel zone theory is applied.

摘要:

In the last few decades, man's knowledge and understanding of his environment has increased at a prodigious rate. The great advances in science have brought with them three important consequences which must affect the teaching of physics. Firstly, there is a greatly increased demand for trained scientists; secondly, it is now desirable, perhaps even essential, for the average man and woman to have some idea of science; and thirdly, the sheer weight of new knowledge has now made it quite impossible for any course of instruction to cover the whole of any subject.

摘要:

The International Years of the Quiet Sun (IQSY) is an enterprise of international scientific collaboration during the period of minimum sunspot activity lasting from 1 January 1964 to 31 December 1965. The scientific programmes to be carried out during the IQSY are planned to complement observations made during the International Geophysical Year (1 July 1957 to 31 December 1958) when the sun was last at its maximum activity. The co-ordination and administration of this undertaking is the responsibility of the IQSY Committee of the ComitC International de GCophysique (CIG-IQSY), an Inter-Union Committee set up by the International Council of Scientific Unions. The United Kingdom's contribution is organized by the Royal Society's British National Committee for Co-operation in Geophysics; it covers the following programme:
