In 1967 a group of physicists from the University of Bologna, led by A Zichichi, published a proposal to search for a heavy lepton using the Frascati (e + e - ) collider. The proposal, whose key pages are reproduced in this book on the 30th anniversary of the publication, was the consequence of many years of work started at CERN, where, in addition to the original idea of searching for a heavy lepton carrying its own leptonic number, new technologies were invented to allow the detection of a signal whose identification against the high background of hadronic processes was extremely difficult.M

Albert Einstein Centenary
The scientist and his work by D. AMATI and S. FUBINI. A socially engaged scientist by V. F. WEISSKOPF. This week, we pay homage to Albert Einstein, the giant of twentieth-century physics born exactly 100 years ago on 14 March 1879 in Ulm, Germany. At the height of his career, Einstein made a whole series of monumental contributions to physics, including the elaborate theories of special and general relativity which revolutionized human thought and marked a major breakthrough in our understanding to the Universe. Along with quantum mechanics, relativity is one of the twin pillars of understanding which allow us here at CERN to study the behaviour of the tiniest components of matter. The development of quantum mechanics took the combined efforts of some of the greatest scientists the world has known, while relativity was developed almost single-handed by Einstein. The centenary of his birth is being commemorated all over the world. Exhibitions and symposia are being organized, books published, postage stamps issued, statues unveiled, and television documentaries screened. Here at CERN, M. Fierz and V. Weisskopf will present their own tributes to the great man on Monday evening 12 March at 20.00 in the Main Auditorium.

Welcome [to a Symposium : Festschrift Jentschke (Willibald Karl) on his 80th birthday]
Physical science has become an endeavor of many branches. Astronomy, cosmology, particle and part of nuclear physics deals with phenomena that are far away in time and space from the human environment on earth. hey belong to 'cosmic physics'. In contrast, atomic, molecular, condensed matter physics, and part of nuclear physics are studies of the properties of matter here on earth. We call these studies 'terrestrial physics'.There is a division of physics into 'non-applicable' and 'applicable' fields. The cosmic sciences fall into the first category. The 'applicable' branches are those for which applications are obvious or easily predictable, which is the case for most 'terrestrial physics'. Up to about 1970, both branches of physics received ample support, but a change occured at that time. The reasons are manifold. We are facing a more pragmatic era, concentrating on applied science. Even so, we will always need basic research based on the curiosity for knowing more about Nature and ourselves.

SESSION 7: Final remarks
A classic work by two leading physicists and scientific educators endures as an uncommonly clear and cogent investigation and correlation of key aspects of theoretical nuclear physics. It is probably the most widely adopted book on the subject. The authors approach the subject as ""the theoretical concepts, methods, and considerations which have been devised in order to interpret the experimental material and to advance our ability to predict and control nuclear phenomena.""The present volume does not pretend to cover all aspects of theoretical nuclear physics. Its coverage is restricted to

The formation of Cooper pairs and the nature of superconducting currents
A simple physical explanation is given for the formation of Cooper pairs in a superconducting metal, for the origin of the attractive force causing the binding of the pairs, for the forming of a degenerate Bose gas by the Cooper pairs, for the finite energy gap that prevents the ensemble of electrons from changing its quantum state at low temperatures, and for the existence of permanent currents in a superconducting wire.

With a view to emphasizing the basic principles involved, various topics in atomic and molecular physics are given a simple quantitative treatment using wave mechanics. Amongst the topics discussed are the size and energy of He, H and Ne atoms and Pauli's exclusion principle. Related subjects of discussion dealt with include binding energy of solids, lattice vibrations and the evaporation of solids.
