How Do Scientists Determine the Long-Term Risks from Radiation? The Atomic Century One hundred years ago, a half century before the atomic bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, the discovery of x rays spotlighted the extraordinary promise, and peril, of the atom. From that time until 1942, atomic research was in private hands. The Second World War and the Manhattan Project, which planned and built the first atomic bombs, transformed a cottage industry of researchers into the largest and one of the most secretive research projects ever undertaken. Scientists who had once raced to publish their results learned to speak in codes accessible only to those with a "need to know." Indeed, during the war the very existence of the man-made element plutonium was a national secret. After the war's end, the network of radiation researchers, government and military officials, and physicians mobilized for the Manhattan Project did not disband. Rather, they began working on government programs to promote both peaceful uses of atomic energy and nuclear weapons development.

And at least initially, there were few conscious attempts to study the theory of science independently of the practical innovations and technologies that required some application of scientific principles. In most cases, technological discoveries took place without any knowledge of the underlying scientific principles, through hit and trial, and by experience. Sometimes there was a vague or approximate awareness of the science, but the predominant focus remained on the utilitarian aspects of the technique, on practical efficacy, as opposed to how and why something worked or didn't work. In India, the earliest applications of chemistry took place in the context of medicine, metallurgy, construction technology (such as manufacture of cement and paints) and in textile production and dyeing. But in the process of understanding chemical processes, there also emerged a concomitant interest in attempting to describe the basic elements of matter - what they were composed of, and how they interacted with each other to produce new substances. Natural phenomenon were studied in the context of tides, rainfall, appearance of the sun, the moon and stellar formations, changes in season, weather patterns and agriculture.

129. Department Of Physics Research Profile Department of physics Applied physics at the University of Strathclyde, UK. http://www.strath.ac.uk/physics/research/

Department of Physics Research Profile The Department of Physics is strong in both research and teaching. Its research is recognised as internationally excellent, as shown by the award of a 4 rating in the 2001 Research Assessment Exercise. Most of the externally-derived research funding is competitively won in peer-reviewed processes and about half of the research income is awarded by the Research Councils, making the Department one of the larger mainstream physics departments in the UK. The research programme supports most of the 100 or so Departmental staff, which can be divided into three roughly equal groups: academic staff, research staff, and support staff. There are also a number of eminent visiting and part-time professors, notably Professor Alain Aspect, Carnegie Centenary Professor in the Department. The Department provides a wide range of degree courses, including Physics, Applied Physics, Laser Physics and Optoelectronics, Mathematics and Physics, Physics and Mathematical Finance (MSci), Physics with Visual Simulation (MSci), Photonics (MSci) and Biophysics (MSci). As well as postgraduate study leading to a PhD/MPhil degree, the Department also offers the MRes qualification, obtainable in one year. An EngD in Photonics is also available for those wishing to follow an industrial career path.

After decades of playing with lasers, the Optical Physics community has finally demonstrated the ability to control ensembles of atoms as well as individual electrons, ions, atoms and molecules. Many dramatic demonstrations of the quantum interaction of light and matter have resulted, including the cooling of atoms to the absolute zero of temperature, the creation of Bose-Einstein Condensates in dilute atomic vapors, and the slowing of the speed of light in matter to a horse's gait! These remarkable developments have signalled a revolution in Atomic, Molecular and Optical Physics (AMO). As described below, four UK faculty members are seeking to exploit the technological progress in order to improve our fundamental understanding of quantum processes.

Current research areas are: 1) Quantum mechanical treatment of the three-body recombination reaction that forms ozone in the stratosphere (O + O2 + M = O3 + M) with particular emphasis on explanation of anomalous large isotope effects. This problem is a famous 20 year old mystery which still keeps many fine scientists around the world interested and involved [J. Chem. Phys. 118, 6298 (2003); Chem. Phys. Let. 372, 686 (2003); J.

Theoretical Atomic and Nuclear Physics at UNSW Parity non-conservation (PNC) and time-invariance violation (TIV) in atoms and nuclei This is probably the most interesting and challenging topic of the modern atomic and nuclear physics. It is focused on the investigation of the fundamental nature forces with the aim to contribute towards their grand unification. The information obtained by the PNC and TIV measurements in atoms is of the similar value as those which comes from huge and expensive accelerators. On the other side, the PNC and TIV effects in atoms are usually very small and require sophisticated experimental technique for the measurements and high-precision atomic calculations for the accurate interpretation of the experimental results. Using the technique which is described below we have performed the most accurate calculations of the PNC effect in Cs, Fr, Tl, Pb and Bi. We are working on further improvement of the accuracy of calculations and on calculation of the PNC or TIV effects for those atoms where such measurements have been proposed (Dy, Hg, Ra, Ba+, etc.)(see, e.g. [1-3]).
