Arno A. Penzias Interviste Il Nobel per la fisica Arno Penzias, che è stato in Italia per partecipare all'iniziativa "Dieci Nobel per il futuro: Scienza, economia, etica per il prossimo secolo", realizzata dalla società Hypothesis, parla in questa intervista dell'occupazione in una società globale. "Per l'armonia in un mondo digitale" (Milano, 21/10/98) Biografia Nel gennaio del 1940 Arno Penzias raggiunge gli Stati Uniti dove assieme alla famiglia cerca rifugio dalla persecuzione antisemita nazista. Nel 1978 grazie a questa scoperta viene assegnato a Penzias e a Wilson il premio Nobel per la Fisica. Nel frattempo, nel 1969, Penzias viene promosso supervisore del personale tecnico, nel 1972 capo della ricerca radio-fisica e, nel 1976, direttore del Radio Research Lab. Nel 1978 è nominato direttore esecutivo della divisione di ricerca in scienze della comunicazione e, nel 1981, vice presidente per la ricerca, incarico che ricoprirà per quattordici anni. Nel 1995 diviene anche direttore della ricerca, posizione che manteneva fino al 1996. Penzias ha scritto più di cento articoli scientifici, due libri, due racconti di fantascienza e numerosi articoli su temi tecnologici ed economici.

Arno A. Penzias Interview "Harmony in a digital world" (Milan, 21-10-98) Biography Arno Penzias arrived with his family in the United States in January 1940, fleeing from Nazi anti-Semitism. In 1947 he enrolled in Brooklyn Technical High School. After graduation in 1951, he began studying at City College in New York and during his first year at the college discovered physics and decided to pursue the subject. He graduated in 1954 and joined the US Army Signal Corps as a radar officer at Fort Devens in Massachusetts. After the Army he became a researcher in the Radiation Laboratory of Columbia University. In 1958 he was awarded an M. A. and four years later a Ph.D. in physics. He joined Bell Labs as a member of the technical staff in 1961; two years later he met Robert W. Wilson. The two researchers shared Bell Lab's single post of radio-astronomer, but meanwhile dedicated themselves to research in other sectors. Penzias and Wilson intended to use an antenna to measure the radio signals from Cassiopea A, an extinct supernova, and the halo of the Milky Way. The experiments required that the antenna not introduce any background noise, but Penzias and Wilson could not eliminate an "inexplicable" noise. The experiment seemed to have entered a blind alley. Later the mysterious noise was explained: it was the echo of the explosion which took place 15 billion years ago, the birth of the universe. That "noise" was thus the proof of the "Big Bang" theory. Penzias and Wilson were awarded the 1978 Nobel Prize for Physics for this discovery.

American Scientific Affiliation Astronomy/Cosmology Page Arno A. Penzias: Astrophysicist, Nobel Laureate Jerry Bergman, Ph.D. Northwest College Route 1 Archbold, OH 43502 From their observations made in 1964 and 1965, Dr. Arno A. Penzias and Dr. Robert Wilson of Bell Telephone Laboratories first discovered the now estimated 3 K background microwave radiation in the universe - one of the first and still one of the major lines of evidence in support of Big Bang cosmology. In the minds of many in the scientific community, this discovery supports the view that the universe created itself. Browne (1978) interviewed several of the world's leading physicists, astronomers and cosmologists. "A majority clearly shared the somewhat gloomy view of Dr. Steven Weinberg, a well-known [former] Harvard University particle physicist whose book about the origin of the universe, The First Three Minutes , appeared recently." In Weinberg's words, "The more the universe seems comprehensible, the more it also seems pointless.... The effort to understand the universe is one of the very few things that lifts human life a little above the level of farce, and gives it some of the grace of tragedy" ( Weinberg Browne discovered in his research that some scientists shared "a contrasting view" to that of Weinberg. One of these scientists was Dr. Penzias himself, who, "despite the part his observations played in expanding the thinking of such physicists" as Dr. Weinberg, "believes that they are wrong in asserting that the universe is pointless" (

NYR Books The New York Review of Books June 27, 1985 Letter AN OPEN LETTER TO GENERAL JARUZELSKI By Arno Penzias Czeslaw Milosz Daniel Nathans David H. Hubel ... William A. Fowler As members of the international community of intellectuals and scholars we are shocked by the recent indictment and the imminent trial of three dissident leaders, Adam Michnik, Bogdan Lis, and Wladyslaw Frasyniuk. These actions indicate that our hopes for a more tolerant attitude toward free speech in Poland have been unfounded. These leaders, already imprisoned for two months, have been charged with inciting public unrest for merely discussing the possibility of calling a fifteen-minute general strike to protest food price increases. The strike, as you know, never even occurred. Among those jailed is the historian Adam Michnik. A noted author and theorist of democracy, Michnik has devoted a lifetime to nonviolent protest on behalf of economic, cultural, and political freedom. He has already spent several years in prison in Poland. His release last summer was interpreted by some as a harbinger of liberalization. Mr. Michnik's reimprisonment, so suddenly, obviously belies this view. We strongly protest the imprisonment of Mr. Michnik and his colleagues. Any government which responds to the peaceful dissent of intellectuals through forceful detainment violates international standards of human rights and in so doing alienates itself from individuals and institutions in the world for whom such rights are sacrosanct. We demand that the Polish government adopt a genuine program of liberalization and begin by releasing Mr. Michnik and his colleagues.

ARNO PENZIAS Premio Nobel per la Fisica 1978. Arno Allan Penzias, nato a Monaco di Baviera nel 1933, si laurea in scienze al City College di New York. Dopo il servizio militare nell'US Army Signal Corps, consegue un dottorato in fisica alla Columbia University. Nel 1961 entra a far parte del personale tecnico dei Bell Laboratories, dedicandosi alla ricerca nel campo delle comunicazioni radio e partecipando a esperimenti pionieristici con i satelliti per le comunicazioni Echo e Telstar. Come scienziato, Penzias è noto soprattutto per i suoi lavori di radioastronomia, in particolare per aver scoperto prove a favore della teoria del Big Bang sull'origine dell'universo. Dopo aver trasformato un'antenna a cono in un radiotelescopio eccezionalmente sensibile, insieme a Robert Wilson rileva le deboli tracce lasciate dalla nascita incandescente dell'universo: la radiazione cosmica di fondo a 3 gradi Kelvin. La scoperta, che ha portato alla teoria il sostegno dell'osservazione scientifica, ha prodotto sviluppi radicalmente nuovi in astrofisica e in cosmologia ed è valsa ai due ricercatori il premio Nobel per la Fisica nel 1978. Penzias è ufficialmente in pensione dall'inizio del 1998, ma continua a lavorare per i Bell Labs come consulente. È inoltre attivamente impegnato nella gestione del venture capital nella SiliconValley, in veste di consulente e consigliere di amministrazione di numerose aziende emergenti.

Penzias, Arno Allan German-born US radio engineer who in 1964, with radioastronomer Robert Wilson, was the first to detect cosmic background radiation. This radiation had been predicted on the basis of the 'hot Big Bang' model of the origin of the universe. Penzias and Wilson shared the 1978 Nobel Prize for Physics. Penzias was born in Munich. His parents left Nazi Germany for the USA, and Penzias studied at the City College of New York and Columbia University. In 1961 he joined the staff of the Radio Research Laboratory of the Bell Telephone Company, becoming its director 1976 and vice president of research 1981. Concurrently he has held a series of academic positions at Princeton, Harvard, and from 1975 as professor at the State University of New York ay Stony Brook. They took this enigmatic result to physicist Robert Dicke at Princeton, who had predicted that this sort of radiation should be present in the universe as a residual relic of the intense heat associated with the birth of the universe following the Big Bang. His department was in the process of constructing a radio telescope designed to detect precisely this radiation when Penzias and Wilson presented their data. Penzias's later work has been concerned with developments in radioastronomy, instrumentation, satellite communications, atmospheric physics, and related matters.

It is cold outside, 3 degrees! Three degrees Kelvin, that is, in intergalactic space. This surprising discovery was made by researchers Arno Penzias (1933-) and Robert Wilson (1936-) at Bell Labs in New Jersey, with a receiver originally built for satellite communication. They found that cosmic microwave radiation of uniform strength was received from all directions, and it was supposed that this radiation was the remains of the Big Bang. The shape of the spectrum is indeed like that of a black body with a temperature of 3 degrees Kelvin, supporting the Big Bang theory of creation rather than the steady state hypothesis. Penzias and Wilson shared one half of the 1978 Nobel physics prize for this discovery; the other half went to Piotr Leontevit ch Kapitsa (1894-1984), for his discoveries in the area of low temperature physics. A Swedish stamp has not yet been issued in his honor.

Special Release Contact: IDI Marketing Communications Nobel Laureate Calls Data Mining "A Must" World Renowned Expert Arno Penzias Considers Corporate Data Mining Indispensable: "Do it or You're Dead." Los Angeles, CA With the increasing pace of the introduction of new technologies, most Fortune 1000 companies are evaluating the impact of information systems on their strategic direction in the next millennium. One of the most experienced and knowledgeable figures in the technical world, scientist and Nobel Prize winner Dr. Arno Penzias recently talked about these trends with ComputerWorld, looking to the next millennium. Dr. Penzias won the 1978 Nobel Prize in physics and was the vice president and chief scientist at Bell Laboratories. He is also the author of two highly acclaimed books on information technology, especially its impact on business and society, Ideas and Information: Managing in a High-Tech World and Digital Harmony: Business, Technology and Life After Paperwork. In an interview with ComputerWorld in January 1999, Dr. Penzias considered large scale data mining from very large databases as the key application for corporations in the next few years. In response to ComputerWorld's age-old question of "What will be the killer applications in the corporation?" Dr. Penzias replied: "Data mining." He then added: "Data mining will become much more important and companies will throw away nothing about their customers because it will be so valuable. If you're not doing this, you're out of business" he said. Regarding the systems implications of this trend, Dr. Penzias commented: "There will be huge databases everywhere. They will get bigger than processors, so you have to back them up in some mountain in Tennessee at night."

Heads of state seek your opinion, famous photographers want your picture, and the press eagerly awaits your Big Thoughts. However, a jet-lagged, harried Arno Penzias seems like a pretty regular guy. Less than 48 hours earlier, Penzias was addressing the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, about the economic impacts of communications media like the Internet. At his Telegraph Hill condominium in San Francisco, the man who shared the Nobel prize for discovering background radiation in space is attempting to address the impact of a leaky roof. With a living room full of lights, camera equipment, and people from NEWS.COM, the lithe 63-year old juggles a ringing phone, a ringing doorbell, and a coffee cup. With a cordless phone caught between his shoulder and ear, Penzias pulls a volume from a bookshelf and tells a story to the tinny hold music insinuating itself into his ear: When he won the Nobel, he posed for a famous photographer in front of a blackboard full of equations. "When I got the book, I noticed that I was in there, but no Leonard Bernstein, no Marilyn Monroe, no John F. Kennedy, all people he had shot," Penzias says. "So I asked him, 'Why me?'" The photographer's answer: "It was the best picture ever taken of a blackboard," he recounts as he breaks into a smile.
