This is an expository introduction, for a general mathematics audience, to the modeling of the fluid/solid phase transition and in particular to complications created by the discovery of quasicrystals. One goal is to elucidate certain features of the modeling which are ripe for mathematical investigation. * Research supported in part by NSF Grant DMS-1208941 The 2011 Nobel prize for chemistry w...

This article argues that revolutionary leaders are more willing to commit mass killing than nonrevolutionary leaders. Revolutionary leaders are more ideologically committed to transforming society, more risk tolerant, and more likely to view the use of violence as appropriate and effective. Furthermore, such leaders tend to command highly disciplined and loyal organizations, built in the course...

Abstract Internet of Things (IoT) is a revolutionary and novel platform where smart network connects to the large number electronic devices via internet through available communication systems for reliable real time connectivity, sensing thus acquiring data from sensors, computing actuating devices. A review current status IoT features, architecture, infrastructure applications presented here. ...

The foundation for many of the missions recommended by the decadal survey is advances in infrared and submm detectors and receivers. We illustrate how NGST, SAFIR, and far infrared interferometry can use such devices to address fundamental questions in cosmology and star and planet formation, and furthermore how they enable a large discovery space.
