Banquet Speech
Georges Charpak's speech at the Nobel Banquet, December 10, 1992
Your Majesties, Your Royal Highnesses, Ladies and Gentlemen,
The honour bestowed upon me by the Nobel Foundation appeared to me not to belong to the real world.
I should have found, at my side, everyone from CERN, the European Organization for Nuclear Research. But an incident, a few days ago, enlightened me concerning the surprising decision of the Jury: the official photographer informed me that I was the 137th Nobel Laureate of whom he has had to make a portrait. Certainly all of you know that 137 is a magic, quasi-mystical number in physics. It is equal to the velocity of light times the reduced Planck constant divided by the square of the electron charge! This number governs the size of all objects in the Universe. Some people claim that if this value were to be slightly different life would not be possible.
This information led me, through channels which I cannot reveal publicly, to the origin of the decision of the Jury: they have been inspired by the goddess Freja, the wife of Odin, a spiritual cousin of the goddess Venus, who has decided to choose me to deliver a message.
My very modest contribution to physics has been in the art of weaving in space thin wires detecting the whisper of nearby flying charged particles produced in high-energy nuclear collisions. It is easy for computers to transform these whispers into a symphony understandable to physicists.
But the whispers can also be produced by radiations widely used in biology or in medicine, such as electrons from radioactive elements or X-rays. In this last case it is possible to reduce, by a large factor, the doses of radiations inflicted on the patients. Despite its use still on a very small scale, the first results with wire chambers point clearly to the direction to be taken. The techniques being developed for matching the needs in radiation detectors of the future high-energy colliders foreseen at CERN or in the USA will clearly bring the ideal solution for the imaging of radiations: each quantum will be detected, one by one, with an accuracy of a few microns.

Two Win Nobel Science Prizes
AP
STOCKHOLM, Sweden - A Canadian-born California researcher whose theoretical work spurred advances in chemistry and a Frenchman whose invention helped explore the innermost parts of matter won Nobel Prizes today.
Rudolph Marcus, 69, of the California Institute of Technology, found simple mathematical expressions of how reacting molecules and their neighbors affect the energy of a molecular system, said the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences.
His theoretical work "has greatly stimulated experimental developments in chemistry," said the academy, which awarded the $1.2 million prize.
Earlier today, Georges Charpak of France won the $1.2 million prize in physics for an invention that led to breakthroughs in exploring the innermost parts of matter.
Marcus' mathematical expressions let him calculate and explain greatly varying rates measured for reactions called electron-transfer reactions, the academy said.
His theory provided a valuable tool for experimental chemists, the academy said.
From 1956 to 1965 Marcus published a series of papers on electron-transfer reactions.
Charpak, 68, was honored for his invention and development of particle detectors, the academy said. His pioneering work was published in 1968.
"Largely due to his work, particle physicists have been able to focus their interest on very rare particle interactions, which often reveal the inner parts of matter," the academy said.
Charpak (pronounced Shahr-PUCK) invented the multiwire proportional chamber at CERN, the European laboratory for particle physics, an invention that made it possible to increase the speed of data collection in experiments on subatomic particles.
The chamber uses modern electronics and connects a particle detector directly to a computer.
When Charpak learned he had won the prize, he said, "Great, then I can buy a new pair of shoes this afternoon," the Swedish news agency TT reported.
Charpak, who also is affiliated with the Higher School of Physics and Chemistry in Paris, is the ninth winner from France and the second in a row.
Various particle detectors based on Charpak's original invention "have been of decisive importance for many discoveries in particle physics during the last two decades," the academy said.
"Today practically every experiment in particle physics uses some type of track detector that has been developed from Charpak's original invention."
Charpak has been at the center of this development from which thousands of scientists, at CERN and elsewhere, have profited, the academy said. Both the 1976 and 1984 Nobel Prize winners used these wire chambers in the work that won the prize.
The academy noted that detectors developed by Charpak are being used more and more outside physics. One possible application could be reducing the amount of drugs needed for cancer treatment by helping doctors pinpoint the location of tumors, said Cecilia Jarleskog of the academy.
By studying reactions among subatomic particles, physicists learn about the particles and the forces that act on them. The reactions are often very complex, and to interpret them, the scientists often need to register every single particle trajectory.
Charpak was born in Poland in 1924 and received his doctorate in 1955 at the College de France in Paris. He has worked at CERN since 1959.

Stone Upon Stone: Sing Sing Prison
BY Mark Gado
Sing Sing's first executioner was a man named Edwin Davis. Back then, executioners were called electricians. Davis took the job in 1891 and was the man who pulled the switch on the unfortunate William Kemmler. Of course, killing people by electricity was a novel undertaking at that time and the technique had to be refined with each killing. Davis also executed Martha Place, the first female electrocuted in American history, on March 20, 1899.

Mrs. Turner: Sorry to interrupt, Mr. Wells, but there are two gentlemen here from Scotland Yard who would like a word with you.
H.G. Wells: Gentlemen, what is the meaning of this?
Scotland Yard police detective: Uh, beg pardon, sir, I'm sure. Might we have a word with you, sir? [ whispers to H.G. Wells ]
H.G. Wells: The Ripper? In this vicinity?
Scotland Yard police detective: I'm afraid so, sir.
Scotland Yard police detective: We've cordoned off the entire neighborhood. We're asking the folk here about to cooperate. Will that be all right with you with you, sir? Your housekeeper will sleep the better for it.
H.G. Wells: Of course. By all means.
Mrs. Turner: Oh, thank you very much, sir.
Dinner guest: What's happened?
H.G. Wells: Apparently, The Ripper has struck again.
Dinner guest: No! He's pulling your leg.
Scotland Yard police detective: With you permission, sir.
H.G. Wells: Please.
Dinner guest: He hasn't been heard from for years.
Dinner guest: Nor in this part of town.
Scotland Yard police detective: No doubt about it, I'm afraid, gentlemen. He has a very distinctive style.
Scotland Yard police detective: What have you there, sergeant?
Scotland Yard police officer: I think you better have a look at this, sir.
Mrs. Turner: That's Dr. Stevenson's bag.
H.G. Wells: That belongs to one of my guests.
Scotland Yard police detective: What did you say this man's name was?
H.G. Wells: Stevenson. John Leslie Stevenson. He's chief of surgery at St. Bartholomew's -
Scotland Yard police detective: I'm afraid he's also chief of surgery in Whitechapel.

Final Countdown
Casualties will be moved down to secondary triage.
I wanna get out of this bathrobe and into some clothes!
Will somebody please get me some clothes? For God's sakes!
- Chief, get the senator some clothes. - Yes, sir.
Senator, Matt Yelland, commanding officer.
Where and how did you get all this information I've been hearing?
- And is it true? - Yes, sir.
Did you inform Pearl Harbor Command?
- No, Senator. - Why the hell not?
Well, the reasons are a little complicated, but, uh, believe me, Senator
this carrier is capable of handling any attack should it occur.
One carrier against a whole fleet?
What kind of an idiot do you take me for?
- Senator, calm down. - The hell with you.
Tell Pearl Harbor what's happening here, or I'll talk to them.
Very well.
Dan, set up the communications in my inport cabin.
Wouldn't you like to talk to them with some clothes on?
- Thank you, Captain. - Follow me, sir.
- Are you all right? - Yes, sir, I'm fine.
Can you do that, Captain?
Contact Pearl Harbor back in 1941.
I think so.
- Then what do you do? - One step at a time.
Yeah. Like a minefield.

Date of Birth
6 July 1887, Sydney, New South Wales, Australia
Date of Death
5 November 1975, Southport, Australia
Birth Name
Annette Marie Sarah Kellerman
She was arrested in Boston in 1907 for wearing a one-piece bathing suit which was considered in violation of the decency standards of the community.
Life story was made into the 1952 film Million Dollar Mermaid (1952) starring Esther Williams. An important scene in the film shows Annette being the scandal at a Boston beach for wearing a one-piece bathing suit in public. This act helped change the attitude of female beach-goers, who in the past wore billowy dress-like swimwear instead of more-revealing, less-dangerous swimsuits.
