Men of Science and of Faith in God
Professor Arthur L. Schawlow (1921- )
by Ben Clausen Translated for Ciencia de los Orígenes , Enero-Agosto 1995, Ns. 40,41, p.13 Prof. Schawlow received his Ph.D. in physics at the University of Toronto in 1949. In 1981 he shared the Nobel Prize for Physics with Nicolaas Bloembergen and Kai Siegbahn "for their contribution to the development of laser spectroscopy". He is now a professor of Physics at Stanford University.
In understanding the relation between science and faith, Prof. Schawlow believes that science can neither prove nor disprove religion, because religion is founded on faith. When confronted with the marvels of life and the universe, one asks why and not just how, and the only possible answers are religious. For him that means Protestant Christianity, to which he was introduced as a child and which has withstood the test of a lifetime. He believes that the context of religion is a great background for doing science. Psalm 19 says that "The heavens declare the glory of God and the firmament showeth his handiwork". Thus scientific research is a worshipful act, in that it reveals more of the wonders of God's creation.
As for the origin of the universe and life, he believes that they should be pursued as vigorously as the scientists' abilities and interests can take them. From a religious point of view, we assume that God did it and hope to find out something about how he did it, but the answers will never be final and there will always be further surprises to come. Deeper questions will eventually have to be referred to religion.

On December 10th, the anniversary of Alfred Nobel's death, the Nobel prize is presented to laureates during a ceremony in Stockholm, Sweden. The Army Research Office sponsored the work of many Nobel laureates over the years and their research has dramatically impacted our national defense. Listed below are ARO sponsored Nobel laureates. The Nobel Prize in Physics - Laureates Eric A. Cornell, Wolfgang Ketterle, Carl E. Wieman Herbert J. Kroemer, Zhores I. Alferov Daniel Tsui David M. Lee ... Polykarp Kusch, Willis E.

Nobel Prize Winners Seek Stronger Support for Basic Science
The American Institute of Physics Bulletin of Science
Policy News Number 101: June 26, 1996 The letter, dated June 19, follows: "Dear President Clinton and Members of Congress: "As men and women who have helped to shape the modern scientific age and who care deeply about the future of our nation, we urge you to reaffirm the fundamental role of the federal government in supporting basic scientific research. "Americans have been awarded more than one-half of all Nobel Prizes in physics, chemistry and medicine since 1945. This impressive success is no accident, but the result of a firm and consistent commitment by the federal government to basic science research at our universities. Our nation's policymakers and public have been prudent investors because their support has paid off in tremendous ways. "America's investment in research over the last fifty years has been a vital source of our economic and political strength around the world, as well as the quality of life Americans enjoy at home. The polio vaccine, computers, jet propulsion and disease resistant grains and vegetables are some of the thousands of advances pioneered at our universities that have had dramatic benefits for our health, economy, security and quality of life. "New and equally breathtaking advances may be just around the corner. Genetic research, for example, gives promise of better treatments for Alzheimer's, cancer and other diseases. Lighter and stronger composite materials may be developed with important applications in transportation, medicine and the military. Continuing support for university-based research will not only pave the way for these important breakthroughs, but will also train the next generation of pioneers and Nobelists.

The Patent Dispute Regarding the Invention of the Laser
Todd Fronek
The laser has become a major technological factor in today's fast paced world. CD-ROM, laser printers, and even eye surgery all involve using a laser. In 1960, Theodore Maiman produced the first working laser [Bromberg, 1988]. The discovery marked the zenith of many years of research, and also the beginning of numerous technological breakthroughs. Because many parties in addition to Maiman contributed substantial research to the invention of the laser, a dispute arose over who should receive the patent for the invention of the laser.
LASER is an acronym for "light amplification by stimulated emission of radiation." A laser produces a thin beam of light that is monochromatic and coherent, meaning that the beam is one color and each wave of light travels in step. The laser process begins when energy enters and begins to strike the atoms in a system. The stimulated atoms give off energy in the form of light. This emitted light reflects back and forth between the ends of a cylinder, one end being a fully reflecting mirror and one end being a partially reflecting mirror. The light continues to excite more and more atoms, and finally the atoms contain enough energy to burst through the partially reflecting mirror in a beam of light. This beam of light has a variety of applications. For instance, it is able, in some cases, to drill tiny holes in diamonds within minutes (conventional methods take days to produce the same holes).

CARL WIEMAN RECEIVES 1999
ARTHUR L. SCHAWLOW PRIZE
Distinguished Professor Carl E. Wieman of the University of Colorado at Boulder has been named the recipient of the 1999 Arthur L. Schawlow Prize in Laser Science from the American Physical Society.
The prize recognizes outstanding contributions to basic research that uses lasers to advance knowledge of the fundamental properties of materials and their interaction with light. The prize is named for the Nobel Prize-winning scientist who played a major role in developing the laser and its applications and includes a $10,000 award.
The APS cited Wieman, "For pioneering work on the production and study of Bose-Einstein condensation in a dilute atomic vapor, which has become a major testing ground for macroscopic quantum phenomena, and quantum statistical mechanics."
Wieman is a fellow and former chair of JILA, a joint institute of CU-Boulder and the National Institute of Standards and Technology.
The APS is the world's leading organization of physicists and will celebrate its 100th anniversary in 1999. The international group is based in College Park, Md., and has more than 40,000 members in industry, academia and government.
