Artist's concept of Ulysses. Photo: ESA Scientists measured sudden changes in the Sun's magnetic field with the magnetometer instrument on the Ulysses spacecraft, which is orbiting the Sun's poles at a distance between Jupiter and Mars. Ulysses has been studying the Sun since 1990 and has just finished studying the south pole of the Sun at solar maximum, a time of great activity. "Over the poles of the Sun, we saw abrupt decreases in the magnetic field," said JPL's Dr. Bruce Tsurutani, a co-investigator on the magnetometer instrument on Ulysses. "We did not know what they were, because we had never seen anything like it before. Now we know that the disturbance is caused by Alfven waves."

Chapter 6: The Sun: A Garden-Variety Star Kinks in Sun's Waves Unraveled Kinks in the Sun's magnetic field have puzzled scientists since they first started studying the solar wind, and now researchers at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory, Pasadena, Calif., have found the reason: they are caused by the evolution of a type of magnetic wave called Alfven waves. Scientists measured sudden changes in the Sun's magnetic field with the magnetometer instrument on the Ulysses spacecraft, which is orbiting the Sun's poles at a distance between Jupiter and Mars. Ulysses has been studying the Sun since 1990 and has just finished studying the south pole of the Sun at solar maximum, a time of great activity.

"We did not know what they were, because we had never seen anything like it before. Now we know that the disturbance is caused by Alfven waves." Scientists expected to find that either the field magnitude remained the same, though the angle changed, or that the magnitude changed, with no fields threading across the structure, said Tsurutani. Instead, they found that the ends of Alfven waves always have both rotational and tangential characteristics.

34. Zero Risk A is for Acts of God and alfven, hannes alfven, nobel Laureate in Physics, whowrote about nuclear energy in 1972 No Acts of God may be permitted . http://www.magma.ca/~jalrober/Chapter14a.htm

Wrong from A to Z - Acts of God and Zero Risk A is for Acts of God and Alfven, Hannes Alfven, Nobel Laureate in Physics, who wrote about nuclear energy in 1972: " No Acts of God may be permitted ". This became a favourite catch-phrase of nuclear critics. The same myth was worded differently by Carl Hocevar: "Nuclear power is an unforgiving technology. It allows no room for error. Perfection must be achieved if accidents that affect the general public are to be prevented." Uncritical repetition of these myths has resulted in a widespread perception in the antinuclear literature that any departure from absolute perfection will lead to a catastrophe. Those designing, operating and regulating nuclear reactors know full well that equipment fails, that humans make errors and that Acts of God occur, and they act accordingly. One means they use is defence-in-depth, whereby they assume that failures will occur and so they provide backups, and often backups for the backups. When this is combined with the feedback of operating experience to correct faults when they occur safety is continuously improved and serious accidents can be prevented ( Chapter 8 The success of this approach is demonstrated by the fact that each year Canadian nuclear utilities submit to the Canadian Nuclear Safety Commission (CNSC) some hundreds of "Significant Event Reports (SERs)" documenting equipment and human failings, yet there has never been a nuclear reactor incident in Canada in which a member of the public has received a radiation exposure exceeding the regulatory limit. Critics appear unaware of their inconsistency in attacking the industry for what they regard as the large number of SERs while claiming that perfection must be achieved if accidents that affect the general public are to be prevented.

[Print Friendly Version] Media Note Office of the Spokesman Washington, DC November 30, 2001 Fulbright Program Alumni Win Nobel Prize Two U.S. alumni of the Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs’ Fulbright Program, Joseph E. Stiglitz of Columbia University and George A. Akerlof of the University of California at Berkeley, were honored at a White House reception on Tuesday celebrating their 2001 Nobel Prize in economics. President Bush recognized the Nobel laureates for using their "great gifts" to the fullest in their contributions to society. Stiglitz and Akerlof’s contributions form the core of modern information economics. Stiglitz, who was Chief Economist and Senior Vice President for the World Bank (1997-99) and Chair of the President's Council of Economic Advisors (1995-97), and Akerlof, since 1994 senior non-resident fellow at the Brookings Institution, both earned doctorates in economics from MIT in 1966 and were awarded Fulbright fellowships at the beginning of their careers. Stiglitz was a Fulbright Fellow in economics at the University of Cambridge in the United Kingdom (1969-70). Akerlof was a Fulbright Scholar at the Indian Statistical Institute in New Delhi (1967-68). Stiglitz and Akerlof, who share this year's Nobel Prize in economics with A. Michael Spence of Stanford University, "laid the foundation for a general theory of markets with asymmetric information" during the 1970s. "The Fulbright Program played a pivotal role in my professional development, both by providing me with an opportunity to broaden my intellectual horizons, studying with some of the world’s leading economists at Cambridge University, and enabling me to see the world through quite different perspectives," said Joseph Stiglitz. "Some of the research collaborations I began during that year have lasted over the following three decades. The international perspectives served me well, especially when I became Chief Economist and Senior Vice President of the World Bank."

HANNES ALFVÉN PROJECT 4. SOME CURRENT ITALIAN PROJECTS ... 5. BIBLIOGRAPHIE FRANCOPHONE 1. INTRODUCTION This Newsletter seeks to further the goal of European cooperation in scientific archives by providing a forum for the exchange of news and information about a wide range of activities of interest to those working in the field. It may serve as the place to report informally on projects proposed, in progress and completed such as surveys, cataloguing projects and research projects on problems in the documentation of science, and provide news and information on meetings, exhibitions and publications. This Newsletter is entirely made possible by the contributions of a number of colleagues most notably, Christina Jonsson and Karin Sterky of the Royal Institute of Technology, Stockholm for the report on their Hannes Alfvén project, Giovanni Paoloni of the Scuola Speciale per Archivisti e Bibliotecari in Rome for a report on some of the activities in Italy with which he is associated and Odile Welfelé of the CNRS in Paris for the bibliography of French language publications. I should also like to thank my colleague Alan Hayward who is responsible for the CASE website and thus for the appearance of this Newsletter on the Web.
