Sikeyi: In Memoriam – Johnny Clegg (1953–2019)

Statement Johnny

As researchers, one of our common goals is to expand our reach and our capabilities as human beings through the development of new technologies and new ideas. Often we use immense resources to explore this new territory. However, an unfortunate side effect of this essential activity is that the number of individuals that can participate in this search becomes smaller and smaller as the resource...

Why Johnny Won't Visualize

Memoriam.

George W. Housner, Carl F Braun Professor of Engineering, emeritus, died after a short illness on 10 November 2008, just a few weeks before his 98th birthday. He was in the retirement home in Pasadena where he had lived for several years. For all of us who knew George, this marked the end of an era. Few people have guided and nurtured a field the way George led earthquake engineering over a per...

Accelerator Experiments for Astrophysics ∗ Johnny

Many recent discoveries in astrophysics involve phenomena that are highly complex. Carefully designed experiments, together with sophisticated computer simulations , are required to gain insights into the underlying physics. We show that particle accelerators are unique tools in this area of research, by providing precision calibration data and by creating extreme experimental conditions releva...
