...three general addresses were made by 1) Robert A. Millikan, Professor of Physics, California Institute of Technology, and Nobel prizewinner for 1923, on The Atom as Seen by the Physicist. 2) Dr. Gilbert N. Lewis, Professor of Chemistry, University of California, on The Atom as Seen by the Chemist. 3) Dr. Edwin E. Slosson, Director of Science Service, and author of Creative Chemistry, on The Expansion of Chemistry. The Society also divided into the following general divisions, as well as many smaller sections: chemistry of medicinal products; organic chemistry; industrial and engineering chemistry; physical and inorganic chemistry...
Nikola Tesla, Professor Bergen Davis, Columbia physicist, and other American scientists have been working on similar projects, and believe Grindell-Matthews' method thoroughly feasible. Practical aviators are inclined to scoff at the idea, but a number of such devices have been developed with partial success. The Britisher's invention will be offered to the British Government first, but, if not accepted, then to other nations. The French and German experimenters have not yet reached the efficiency of the Englishman's machine. It can also be used against infantry, either to kill or disable...
Professor Niels Bohr, the celebrated physicist from the University of Copenhagen is to give this afternoon in the lecture room of the Jefferson Physical Laboratory the first of two lectures on the theory of spectra and atomic constitution...
...electron theory is far older than Professor Bohe," he said, "but he did invent a model of the atom which so far has been more successful than any other in explaining certain well known facts in spectrum analysis. His model is probably the most successful and interesting to the physicist that has ever been conceived. His work has been more to establish certain facts about the electron than to prove its existence...
This is one of the fine points of the Einstein theory of relativity which may finally be settled by experiments undertaken last week by Professor Albert A. Michelson, head of the physics department of the University of Chicago, foremost American physicist, Nobel prize winner (1907), and Professor Henry Gordon Gale, Dean of the University of Chicago Graduate School of Science...
