   Extractions: On the urging of Karl Compton, a family friend and then President of MIT, I applied for, and was accepted at that institution's school of physics in 1950. The years at graduate school were a continuing delight - the first sustained immersion in science at a full professional level. My thesis, carried out under the supervision of Martin Deutsch, was an attempt to measure the Lamb shift in positronium, a transient atom discovered by Deutsch a few years before. The attempt was unsuccessful but it served as a very interesting introduction to electromagnetic interactions and the power of the underlying theory. The two years after receiving the PhD degree were spent as a National Science Foundation Postdoctoral Fellow at MIT and at Brookhaven National Laboratory, followed by a trip west to join the research group of Robert Hofstadter and the faculty of the Stanford University physics department. Hofstadter was engaged in the study of the proton and neutron structure that was later to bring him

Kendall, a 1990 Nobel laureate in physics and longtime environmentalist, died on February 15 while exploring the wilderness he loved and worked to preserve. He was 72 years old. Professor Kendall, who shared the Nobel prize with his MIT colleague, Professor Jerome Friedman, and Professor Richard Taylor of Stanford University, was taking photographs on a scuba expedition with a friend from the National Geographic Society at the Wakulla Springs State Park in Florida when he died. Fellow divers found him unconscious in six to 10 feet of water at about 5pm. He was flown to Tallahassee Memorial Hospital, where doctors pronounced him dead on arrival. Pending the final autopsy report, the Wakulla County Sheriff's Office said his death apparently resulted from abdominal hemorrhaging. "Henry Kendall's death is a terrible loss to MIT, the scientific community and the world at large," said Professor Friedman. "Henry was an outstanding scientist and an outstanding human being who worked tirelessly for the betterment of society. He always saw the big picture and identified the big problems. He used political and scientific activity effectively to advance such goals as arms control, nuclear safety and a better environment.

   Extractions: Nobel Laureate and Professor of Physics Henry W. Kendall PhD '55 died Monday. He was 72 years old. Kendall was a renowned experimental particle physicist. He was also deeply involved in questions of nuclear waste dangers and disposal, as well as being a major nuclear arms control activist. Kendall died while scuba diving in Wakulla Springs State Park in Florida, where he was taking underwater photographs with a friend from the National Geographic Society. At about 5:00 p.m., other divers found him floating in water less than 10 feet deep. He was flown to Tallahassee Memorial Hospital where he was pronounced dead on arrival. The Wakulla County medical examiner found that Kendall had not drowned. The Boston Herald reported that the physicist had been using nonstandard, less wasteful scuba gear, and that he had failed to turn on his oxygen supply correctly, suffocating him. As a physicist, Kendall was both a prolific researcher and a dedicated teacher, heavily involved in the undergraduate physics curriculum at MIT. "He was one of the last real hands-on professors," said David Robertson, a technical instructor in the physics department, who worked with Kendall for many years in the Freshman Physics Laboratory.

    Extractions: Kendall, Friedman confirmed existence of quarks By Reuven M. Lerner Physics Professors Jerome I. Friedman and Henry W. Kendall PhD '55 were awarded the 1990 Nobel Prize in physics on Wednesday for their research confirming the existence of quarks. Friedman, 60, and Kendall, 64, are the ninth and 10th Nobel laureates currently affiliated with MIT. The $700,000 award, which will be shared with Richard E. Taylor of the Stanford Linear Accelerator Center, was announced by the Swedish Academy of Sciences early Wednesday morning. Kendall answered questions regarding his research at a news conference later that day. Friedman, who was attending a conference in Fort Worth, TX, was told about the award by his wife. "It was so unbelievable, I literally thought I was still sleeping and that this was part of my dream," he said. President Charles M. Vest, who took office on Monday, expressed excitement about the award. "Professors Friedman and Kendall brought great distinction both to themselves and to the Massachusetts Institute of Technology," he said. "We're very pleased to be able to join today in celebrating their accomplishments, and congratulations to them on behalf of all their MIT colleagues." "We're ecstatic not just because it honors a great intellectual accomplishment, but because . . . they provide good examples that you can be a great scientist and a great humanist at the same time," said Professor Robert J. Birgeneau, head of the physics department.

Dr. Kendall died in a diving accident in Florida while on a National Geographic diving expedition of Wakulla Springs, the largest freshwater springs in the world. Henry Kendall was the Julius A. Stratton Professor of Physics at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) and a 1990 winner of the Nobel Prize in Physics. He was internationally recognized for his research on the internal structures of elementary particles and was one of the co-founders in 1969 of the Union of Concerned Scientists, of which he served as chairman for more than 25 years. He helped found the organization to assess and develop means to control the adverse effects of advanced nuclear technologies both on land and in space, and spent years working on nuclear reactor safety. He wrote and edited a number of books on the subject. Kendall was born December 9, 1926 in Boston and received his B.S. degree in mathematics from Amherst College in 1950. He attended MIT, receiving a Ph.D. in nuclear and atomic physics in 1954. After graduation from MIT he was a National Science Foundation Postdoctoral Fellow at Brookhaven National Laboratory and MIT from 1954 to 1956. He joined the faculty at Stanford University in 1956, serving for the next five years as a lecturer and assistant professor in the University's Physics Department before returning to the MIT Physics Department in 1961. He served as a Professor of Physics at MIT from 1967 to 1991, when he was named the Julius A. Stratton Professor of Physics.

    Extractions: 1990 Nobel Prize in Physics The prize was awarded jointly to: "for their pioneering investigations concerning deep inelastic scattering of electrons on protons and bound neutrons, which have been of essential importance for the development of the quark model in particle physics." Experiments conducted from 1966-1978 by Richard Taylor (SLAC), Henry Kendall (MIT), and Jerome Friedman (MIT) studied how high-energy electrons bounce off the protons and neutrons in a target. Dick Taylor in the "counting room" of the experiments one of the first to use computerized data collection. (1967) Their results showed more electrons bouncing back with high energy at large angles than could be explained if protons and neutrons were uniform spheres of matter. Surprisingly, the experiments revealed extremely small, dense objects moving around in the protons and neutrons. These tiny particles are the quarks.

    Extractions: THE 1990 NOBEL PRIZE FOR PHYSICS goes to Henry W. Kendall and Jerome I. Friedman of MIT, and Richard Taylor of Stanford for their study of high-energy electron-proton collisions conducted at the Stanford Linear Accelerator Center (SLAC) in the late 1960's. Their experiment demonstrated that quarks, the then supposed constituents of protons and neutrons, were not just mathematical constructs but real particles in their own right. The search for the elementary components of matter, a search dating back to antiquity, has in this century produced several significant results. In 1911 Ernest Rutherford showed that atoms consisted of a heavy nucleus and orbiting electrons. The nucleus in turn was found to be made up of neutrons and protons. In the 1950's and 1960's the discovery of numerous new particles, many of them living only fleetingly during high-energy collisions at accelerators, caused theorists to wonder if there weren't some additional underlying level of structure. In the quark model, formulated in the early 1960's by Murray Gell-Mann and others, all strongly interacting particles (hadrons) are thought to be composites made from even more elementary entities, the quarks. For example, baryons such as protons and neutrons are bound states consisting of three quarks while mesons are quark-antiquark states. But were the quarks anything more than a theoretical hypothesis?
