Techniques and Concepts of High-Energy Physics
This past July about sixty physicists from sixteen different countries gathered at St. Croix in the United States Virgin Islands for an Advanced Study Institute (ASI) on Techniques and Concepts of High Energy Physics. The initial idea for the Institute arose one blustery and miserable day at Fermilab during discussions about all the wonderful summer schools that were prevalent throughout Europe but essentially nonexistent in the United States. I felt that it would be of great value to have an Institute that was located in a beautiful area and that catered primarily to the hard working experimenters who stoically suffer both the winter cold and summer heat at Fermilab. Summer schools in our f...
Robert Grosseteste and the pursuit of Religious and Scientific Learning in the Middle Ages
This book explores a wide range of topics relating to scientific and religious learning in the work of Bishop Robert Grosseteste (c. 1168–1253) and does so from various perspectives, including those of a twenty-first century scientists, historians, and philosophers as well as several medievalists. In particular, it aims to contribute to our understanding of where to place Grosseteste in the history of science (against the background of the famous claim by A.C. Crombie that Grosseteste introduced what we now might call “experimental science”) and to demonstrate that the polymathic world of the medieval scholar, who recognized no dichotomy in the pursuit of scientific and philosophical/theological understanding, has much to teach those of us in the modern world who wrestle with the vexed question of the relationship between science and religion. The book comprises an edited selection of the best papers presented at the 3rd International Robert Grosseteste Conference (2014) on the theme of scientific and religious learning, especially in the work of Grosseteste.
Robert Grosseteste and Theories of Education
This book examines Robert Grosseteste’s often underrepresented ideas on education. It uniquely brings together academics from the fields of medieval history, modern science and contemporary education to shed new light on a fascinating medieval figure whose work has an enormous amount to offer anyone with an interest in our educational processes. The book locates Grosseteste as a key figure in the intellectual history of medieval Europe and positions him as an important thinker who concerned himself with the science of education and set out to elucidate the processes and purposes of learning. This book offers an important practical contribution to the discussion of the contemporary nature and purpose of many aspects of our education processes. This book will be of interest to students, researchers and academics in the disciplines of educational philosophy, medieval history, philosophy and theology.

The MRS Symposium Proceeding series is an internationally recognised reference suitable for researchers and practitioners.
Nanotubes, Fullerenes, Nanostructured and Disordered Carbon
Covering a range of topics in the science of carbon, these 41 papers from the April 2001 symposium discuss both ordered solids and molecules and disordered solids. Topics range form the sp2 bonded fullerenes and nanotubes to the sp3 bonded amorphous carbons and diamond. The papers are drawn from sessions addressing fullerenes, nanotube growth, nanotube properties, field emission, diamond like carbon, and diamond. Specific topics include designability of graphitic cones, physical interaction of carbon nanotubes and conjugated polymers, three-dimensional calculation of field emission from carbon nanotubes using a transfer-matrix methodology, and synthesis of ultrathin ta-C films by twist-filtered cathodic arc carbon plasmas.
