Ronald J. Konopka Ron Konopka was found dead of an apparent heart attack in his Pasadena, CA home on February 14, 2015. Konopka was my close contemporary and began graduate school at Caltech in 1967. He published his thesis work along with his mentor Seymour Benzer in what is perhaps the single most influential paper in circadian rhythms (Konopka and Benzer, PNAS 68, 2112–2116). The field has s...

Religion and Spirituality: Adam Smith versus J-J Rousseau

Adam Smith and J-J Rousseau share some common ground when it comes to religion, namely that they were born into  and educated in cultural contexts deeply shaped by Reformed Christianity.

Smith has almost...

IDEAL J *-ALGEBRAS

A C *-algebra A is called an ideal C * -algebra (or equally a dual algebra) if it is an ideal in its bidual A**. M.C.F. Berglund proved that subalgebras and quotients of ideal C*-algebras are also ideal C*-algebras, that a commutative C *-algebra A is an ideal C *-algebra if and only if it is isomorphicto C (Q) for some discrete space ?. We investigate ideal J*-algebras and show that the a...
