Feline leukaemia virus: half a century since its discovery.
In the early 1960s, Professor William (Bill) F.H. Jarrett was presented with a time-space cluster of cats with lymphoma identified by a local veterinary practitioner, Harry Pfaff, and carried out experiments to find if the condition might be caused by a virus, similar to lymphomas noted previously in poultry and mice. In 1964, the transmission of lymphoma in cats and the presence of virus-like ...
متن کاملBrachytherapy technology and physics practice since 1950: a half-century of progress.
The 50-year tenure of Physics in Medicine and Biology has coincided with some of the most important developments in radiological science, including the introduction of artificial radioactivity, computers and 3D imaging into medicine. These events have profoundly influenced the development of brachytherapy. Although it is not the dominant radiotherapy modality, it continues to play an important ...
متن کاملA century of physics
The conventional narrative of physics is one of paradigm shifts1: from the Copernican Revolution to Einstein’s annus mirabilis2. And for many, the stories would seem to involve genius in isolation — the lone physicist divorced from other sciences, unperturbed by societal beliefs. But the reality is quite different: physics has always been in a constant dialogue with other disciplines, be it mat...
متن کاملDiscovery of a Planar Waveguide for an X-Ray Radiation
This figure "pict2.png" is available in "png"" format from: A simple model of X-Ray standing waves (XSW) formation in the slit of a planar waveguide of X-Ray radiation beam for the angle area restricted by the critical total reflection angle is developed. It is shown that the model is true for a case of the Bragg reflection. The conditions required for XSW to appear in the space between two pol...
متن کاملMy Century of Physics
I became an undergraduate at Dartmouth College in 1933. The freshman course in physics was given by G.F. Hull who with E.L. Nichols, the founder of the Physical Review, was the first, with P. Lebedev in Russia to measure the pressure of light. (The world would learn sometime later about the diabolical importance of the pressure of light in enabling the hydrogen bomb.) Hull was a Canadian who ha...
