Wolf Prize From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Jump to: navigation search The Wolf Prize has been awarded annually since 1978 to living scientists and artists for "achievements in the interest of mankind and friendly relations among peoples ... irrespective of nationality, race, colour, religion, sex or political views." The prize is awarded in Israel by the Wolf Foundation , founded by Dr. Ricardo Wolf , a German-born inventor and former Cuban ambassador to Israel. It is awarded in six fields: Agriculture Chemistry Mathematics Medicine ... Physics , and an Arts prize that rotates annually between architecture, music, painting and sculpture. Each prize consists of a diploma and US$100,000. The Wolf Prizes in physics and chemistry are often considered the most prestigious awards in those fields after the Nobel Prize In medicine, the prize is probably the third most prestigious, after the Nobel Prize and the Lasker Award edit See also List of prizes, medals, and awards edit References Wolf Foundation General Information .

The Wolf Prize in mathematics The Wolf Prize in mathematics has been awarded since 1978. The books [ 1] and [ 2] contain details of the life and work of the winners between 1978 and 2000. We quote from the Preface of the books:- There is no Nobel prize in mathematics. Perhaps this is a good thing. Nobel prizes create so much public attention that mathematicians would lose their concentration to work. There are several other prizes for mathematicians. There is the Fields Medal (only for mathematicians); it honours outstanding work and encourages further efforts. Then there is the Wolf Prize. The Wolf Foundation began its activities in 1976. Since 1978, five or six annual prizes have been awarded to outstanding scientists and artists, irrespective of nationality, race, colour, religion, sex or political view, for achievements in the interest of mankind and friendly relations among people. In science, the fields are agriculture, chemistry, mathematics, medicine, and physics; in the arts, the prize rotates annually among music, painting, sculpture and architecture. The Fields Medal goes to young people, and indeed many mathematicians do their best work in the early years of their life. The Wolf Prize often honours the achievements of a whole life. But it may also honour the work of young people. The first Wolf Prize winners in mathematics were

3. Tanksley Wins Wolf Prize By Susan Lang. Steven D. Tanksley, the Liberty Hyde Bailey Professor of Plant Breeding and chair of the Genomics Initiative Task Force at Cornell, http://www.news.cornell.edu/chronicle/04/1.22.04/Tanksley-Wolf_Prize.html

CU's Steven Tanksley is a co-recipient of the prestigious Wolf Prize Tanksley By Susan Lang Steven D. Tanksley, the Liberty Hyde Bailey Professor of Plant Breeding and chair of the Genomics Initiative Task Force at Cornell, is one of two scientists to share the 2004 Wolf Foundation Prize in Agriculture for his "innovative development of hybrid rice and discovery of the genetic basis of heterosis in this important food staple." Each year since 1978, the Wolf Foundation, which is based in Israel, has awarded five Wolf Prizes to outstanding living scientists in agriculture, chemistry, mathematics, medicine and physics as well as one to a person in the arts. The prizes are intended to promote science and art for the benefit of humanity, and prize winners are selected by international committees of three renowned experts in each field. The Wolf Prizes are among the most prestigious scientific awards in the world. Tanksley, who is sharing the honor and its $100,000 prize with Yuan Longping of the China National Hybrid Rice Research and Development Center, also was cited by the Wolf Prize Committee as "one of the world leaders in plant genomic research. He has contributed to the understanding of heterosis in rice by identifying genes in a wild ancestor that significantly increased yields. ... Tanksley's research has led to the discovery of the genetic basis of hybrid vigor in this important food staple a discovery with profound implications for promoting the science of plant breeding for the benefit of humankind."

Sean Hannity Discussion Discussion Topics Washington Politics PDA View Full Version : Stephen Hawking is like a girl drummer ... WW July 8th, 2006, 10:35 am Stephen Hawking is like a girl drummer - or like a 5 year-old playing the banjo. People look at the visual aspect - and think geez this five-year old must be a musical genius. Or people look at Kid Rock's drummer and think - she must be awesome - she's a girl playing professionally in a band. Never mind the fact that most people could not tell the difference between a good musician and a bad one. Even fewer could tell the difference between a good theoretical physicist and a great one. Idiots look at Hawking's "Commander Pike" status - and figure - he must be a genius - look at him! A professor of Physics was once asked to rank Stephen Hawking in terms of his peers. The professor said he was maybe in the top-10 in the world of theoretical physicists. NOT meteorological physicists ... NOT astro-physicists ... but Theoretical Physicists. If Stephen Hawking was walking around and talking like any other human - no one would even know his name.

MELTING Melting is difficult to observe on an atomic level: hence atomistic simulations with good visualization can play an important role. Lindemann model (1910) - Vibration energy related to temperature by the equipartition relation. Melting occurs when the mean square thermal average vibration reaches a fraction of the nearest neighbor spacing. Neglects anharmonicity. Born (1937) - crystal will melt if one of its shear elastic moduli goes to zero. Neglects external stress. Tallon (1978) - volume of the melt predicted by continuous extrapolation of one of the shear moduli to zero. Does not matter if volume change achieved by heating or adding defects. This is a generalization of the Born model.
