Extractions: Catgut Acoustical Society Groundwork in the scientific investigation of the violin was laid by such men as Marin Mersenne (1636), Ernst Chladni (1802), Felix Savart (1819) and Hermann L. F. Helmholtz (1880). Savart, who can rightly be considered the grandfather of violin research, used many ingenious devices to explore the vibrational characteristics of the violin. But he was unable to gain sufficient knowledge of its complicated resonances to apply his ideas successfully to development and construction of new instruments. Recent research that has led to our new fiddle family is largely the work of Hermann Backhaus, Herman Meinel, Gioacchino Pasqualini, Ernst Rohloff, Werner Lottermoser and Frieder Eggers in Europe and of the late Frederick A. Saunders, John C. Schelleng, William Harvey Fletcher and myself in the United States. Among other accomplishments of our Catgut Acoustical Society is a concert played at Harvard last summer during the meeting of the Acoustical Society of America. It was dedicated to Saunders and the instruments were our eight new fiddles, which are the outgrowth of research he began. I write about the concert and about the instruments as a member of the society and as one who worked with Saunders from 1948 until his death in 1963. My activities include reconciliation of the wisdom of experienced musicians and violin makers, coordination of much technical information from widely separated sources, and design, construction and testing of experimental instruments. In 1937 Saunders reported

Extractions: Science and the Stradivarius Is there really a lost secret that sets Stradivarius violins apart from the best instruments made today? After more than a hundred years of vigorous debate, this question remains highly contentious, provoking strongly held but divergent views among players, violin makers and scientists alike. All of the greatest violinists of modern times certainly believe it to be true, and invariably perform on violins by Stradivari or Guarneri in preference to modern instruments. Violins by the great Italian makers are, of course, beautiful works of art in their own right, and are coveted by collectors as well as players. Particularly outstanding violins have reputedly changed hands for over a million pounds. In contrast, fine modern instruments typically cost about £10 000, while factory-made violins for beginners can be bought for under £100. Do such prices really reflect such large differences in quality?

Extractions: Feature: April 2000 Colin Gough received the 2001 Science Writing Award for Professionals in Acoustics from the Acoustical Society of America for this article. Stradivarius violins are among the most sought-after musical instruments in the world. But is there a secret that makes a Stradivarius sound so good, and can modern violins match the wonderful tonal quality of this great Italian instrument? Is there really a lost secret that sets Stradivarius violins apart from the best instruments made today? After more than a hundred years of vigorous debate, this question remains highly contentious, provoking strongly held but divergent views among players, violin makers and scientists alike. All of the greatest violinists of modern times certainly believe it to be true, and invariably perform on violins by Stradivari or Guarneri in preference to modern instruments. The violin is the most highly developed and most sophisticated of all stringed instruments. It emerged in Northern Italy in about 1550, in a form that has remained essentially unchanged ever since. The famous Cremonese violin-making families of Amati, Stradivari and Guarneri formed a continuous line of succession that flourished from about 1600 to 1750, with skills being handed down from father to son and from master to apprentice. The popular belief is that their unsurpassed skills, together with the magical Stradivarius secret, were lost by the start of the 19th century.

Extractions: Jean-Baptiste Biot was a physicist and mathematician who made advances in geometry, astronomy, elasticity, magnetism, heat and optics. For his work on the polarization of light passing through chemical solutions, Biot received the Rumford Medal from the Royal Society in 1840. Biot's father was a treasury official who had planned for his son to enter the world of commerce. Biot was provided with a private math tutor in his youth and was educated at the college of Louis-le-Grand before joining the French army in 1793. After serving briefly in the artillery, he enrolled at the Polytechnic School in Paris. He later moved to Beauvais to act as a mathematics professor, but returned to Paris in 1800 when he was given the position of chair of mathematical physics at the College de France. Elected to the French Academy of Sciences at an unusually young age in 1803, that same year Biot was sent to investigate objects falling from the sky. His findings helped initiate the general acceptance of the existence of meteorites. Then, in 1804, he accompanied Joseph Gay-Lussac on the first balloon trip undertaken for scientific purposes. Biot's interest in optics was spurred in 1806 when Thomas Young revived the wave theory of light. The resurgence of the theory divided the great physics minds of the day into two separate camps, one that supported the wave theory, and another that believed in the corpuscular nature of light. Biot, a member of the latter group, began devoting his time to developing mathematical support for the idea that light existed as particles. In 1808, experiments performed by Etienne-Louis Malus showed that reflected light became polarized, a finding that could only be explained by the wave theory of light. However, Biot chose to repeat and expand upon the work of Malus in hopes of attaining validation for the opposing light theory.

Extractions: Elektronica als hulpmiddel bij vioolbouw Het is waar dat vioolbouw een traditie gebonden ambachtelijke bezigheid is. Toch wordt door de moderne vioolbouwers steeds vaker gebruik gemaakt van elektronica, waardoor betere instrumenten gemaakt worden. Door preciezere metingen worden een aantal parameters beter beheersbaar. Violen, alten en cello`s zijn gebouwd met twee verschillende houtsoorten. Het bovenblad is van fijnspar en het onderblad esdoorn. Traditioneel is deze combinatie met betrekking tot de klankvorming het meest succesvol gebleken. Er zijn een groot aantal factoren die bij de klankvorming een belangrijke rol spelen. Weinig ervan zijn wetenschappelijk te meten of te beheersen. Het bovenblad waarin de f-gaten zijn gesneden en dat voorzien is van een basbalk, produceert de klank. Het esdoorn onderblad heeft als functie de ontstane trillingen te versterken. Van zowel het boven- als onderblad zijn de diktes, veerkracht en de eigen frequentie nauwkeurig te meten.

WINKLER ON THE OCCASION OF THE 7TH INTERNATIONAL HEAT TRANSFER CONFERENCE, MUNCHEN 1982 LEHRSTUHL A FUER THERMODYNAMIK TECHNISCHE UNIVERSITAET MUENCHEN BARON JEAN BAPTISTE JOSEPH FOURIER French mathematician and physicist famous for his pioneer work on the representation of functions by trigonometric series, was born at Auxere on March 21, 1768, the son of a tailor. He became a teacher in mathematics in 1784 at the military school there. He taught at the Ecole Normale at Paris from its founding in 1795, where his success soon led to the offer of the chair of analysis at the Ecole Polytechnique. In 1807 he was made a member of the academy of sciences. Fourier's masterpiece was his mathematical theory of heat conduction stated in "Theorie Analytique de la Chaleur" (1822), one of the most important books published in the 19th century. It marked an epoch both in the history of pure and of applied mathematics, for in it Fourier developed the theory of the series known by his name and applied it to the solution of boundary-value problems in partial differential equations. This work brought to a close a long controversy, and henceforth it was generally agreed that almost any function of a real variable can be represented by a series involving the sines and cosines of integral multiples of the variable. Fourier died in Paris on May 16, 1830. JEAN BAPTISTE BIOT French physicist, best known for his work in polarization of light, was born in Paris on April 21, 1774. In 1800 he became professor of phsysics at the College de France, through the influence of Laplace, from whom he had sought and obtained the favour of reading the proof sheets of the "Mecanique Celeste".

Extractions: Physics PY322 Electricity and Magnetism Lab #2 Spring Semester 2000 Magnetic Fields I. Introduction One of the great triumphs of 19 th century science was the unification of the theories of electricity and magnetism by James Clark Maxwell in 1873. His work, however, was based on earlier work by Hans Christian Oersted, Jean-Baptiste Biot, Felix Savart, and Andre-Marie Ampere. These pioneers developed a mathematical description of the magnetic fields produced by moving charges. In this lab we will calculate the magnetic field produced by a short, thick solenoid, and compare this theoretical prediction to the measured fields. II. Theory We already worked out the magnetic field of the solenoid in class. Therefore, I will only present our final result here. The theory section of your paper should, however, contain the complete derivation of this result, with all its wonderful details. Below is the diagram of the solenoid used in the calculation. Using the law of Biot and Savart we obtained the magnetic field along the axis of the solenoid: III. Experimental Apparatus
