Welcome to the RUclips page for the History Programs at the American Institute of Physics including the Center for History of Physics and the Niels Bohr Library & Archives. Founded in 1962, the History Programs mission is to preserve and make known the history of modern physics and its allied fields through our two joint programs.
The Center for History of Physics supports the efforts of the scholarly community to document, investigate, and understand the nature and origin of developments in modern physics and their impact on society. The Niels Bohr Library & Archives is a repository and clearinghouse for information in the history of physics, astronomy, geophysics and allied fields.

What a god!
That’s not a book
Very Interesting. In my PhD thesis in the 90s I measured the Soret effect in liquid mixtures whereby a temperature gradient sets up a concentration gradient. Only later did I read that this effect played a key role in WW2 to separate isotopes of Uranium. My thesis work was slightly less consequential for National security and the preservation of the free world.
🖤
Thanks but I'm having to look for the original interview- the addition of the completely unnecessary and even insulting background music, like we're little children that need to be entertained, is extremely annoying and distracting and makes the already low quality audio even more difficult to hear. 😡
Thank you for your work, this is fascinating.
Joe McCarthy has been proven to have been correct! In fact, he actually underestimated the number of Communists in our government. McCarthy's accusations were substantiated by the National Security Agency's "Venona project," which intercepted messages passed between Soviet intelligence officers in Moscow and their operatives in the United States. These Venona cables revealed that there were a lot more communist spies in America than previously suspected numbering in the hundreds.
Dr. Mickens is such an impressive person! Thank you
😃
Good work
NOTE: Just want to point out I do NOT have a PhD (I'm not a "Dr."). I received Bachelor's of Science degrees in physics and applied mathematics from Cal Poly Humboldt in 1996 & took a job with Caltech at LIGO Hanford Observatory after undergrad (and have been ever since).
Isn't "the first Born approximation" what G-d did to Egyptians?
Interesting where people laugh and where they don't.
13:00 is hilarious. Scan back a few minutes to the guy who brings him out and it will make sense. It's a good one!
Probably can't do anything about it now, but the sound is way ahead of the video.
Professor Bethe, was an interesting man-I saw him at UCR and asked him a question about his attempted application of the standard model to the problem of solar phenomena.
I am 91. I was about 13 yo at the end of WW2. I see the role of Klaus Fuchs differently now than I did back then. Since the end of WW2, the Presidents and congresses of my country, the USA, have behaved as aggressive war criminals worldwide. The rulers of my country, an imperial, militarized oligarchy, have replaced democratic, legally elected governments with ruthless dictators in, for example, Iran (1953), Guatemala (1954), Chile (1972), and in many other countries. It has sent arms to regimes so that they could exterminate their own native populations: Indonesia under Sukarno, and many regimes in Central America. It has committed aggression in many countries, e.g. Vietnam, Iraq, Afghanistan, Syria. The list of USA's war crimes is too long for me to offer here. The USA is now engaged in a war against Russia, using Ukraine as a proxy. That war began in 2014, when the neutral government of Ukraine was toppled by a USA coup in favor of a fascist regime in Kiev that would sacrifice Ukrainian lives to try to weaken Russia. I now realize, as I did not at the time Klaus Fuchs was discovered to be an "atomic spy", that if the USA had been the world's only nuclear power, it would have been even more criminally aggressive than it has been.
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
He deserves a biopic from Christopher Nolan as a tribute.
Anybody but Nolan
Surely the sound could be better synchronised with the video? It is minutes off.
Thank you so much.
The Joy of Insight - is a fantastic book
Fantastic lecture.
You all have done greatest service to humanity in bringing up & presenting to the World facts & truth of natural mathematical sciences directly from the context of the true heroes of 20th Century & 21st Century Science, Engineering & Technology personalities: both the pillars, the pioneers, the mathematical scientists themselves, including the students very much alive historically in the true spirits of human knowledge & understanding - with sense of life, wits & humors. Thank you AIP, Thank you MIT, Thank you ALL. - Gpw Bernard Bautista

More than impressive lecture
Outstanding !
Ted Ducas now retired. Life is short.
Why are you putting CO2 ahead of water vapour when talking about Long wave radiation absorption ??? Water vapour is several magnitudes greater than CO2 isn't it ??? You also omit what amount of CO2 Eunice Foot added to observe the increased IR absorption.
Wow she even knows what songs the lyrics are from
Right I understand you disabled the system but what was that label maker for?
❤❤❤
Absolutely fascinating! I can't wait to learn more from you.
Make sure both left and right channels have equal volume audio when you post. Easy fix in editing software.
Headphone wearer here, that's nothing compared to how out of sync the picture and sound were, but I'm with you
@@cowboybob7093 I wear only the right earphone and try to fall asleep. Pretty annoying. So many posters of old videos don't even have the minimal audio consideration.
@@tedstriker5991 OOF - Yeah, the one-earphone syndrome, me too sometimes for sure. Music tends to alert me so I have lectures bookmarked for drifting off.
Life was very very political? It still is. To encounter “bad will” and cutthroat competition is all too common. Most practitioners of physics today have the morals of used car salesmen.
lmao what
Are you living in Nazi Germany? No?
Old world brilliance on display…humbling when we think of our intellectual world today…
Podia colocar legendas em portugues
Hello, we are currently working on transcribing this video and will add subtitles soon. Google translation: Olá, estamos trabalhando na transcrição deste vídeo e adicionaremos legendas em breve.
Learning English will be useful for the rest of your life. Asking for subtitles will, maybe, be useful for an hour or two and is an attempt to impose work on others that really should be done by you.
nice footage
A wounderfull lecture
There is a delay in audio and video, which needs to be corrected
It is off by minutes. It makes his talk very hard to follow.
Audio level is too low to understand the content.
It's okay, just don't use headphones and play slightly less fast
Very interesting talk. Amazing that colonial ties and titles are still so prevalent in the whole world today. It's like all their clever work was only used, by so-called 'sovereign' bankers, to monopolize people as chattel property within militarily enforced Exclusive Economic Zones - commonly known today, as they were during active colonialism, as My Country. Remember, a statement of sovereignty is not secular.
There is now
Like a collider
