Again last week Dr. Robert Andrews Millikan reiterated that the universe is constantly being regenerated. Sir James Hopwood Jeans, and others, argue that it is blowing into wavy smithereens. While 100 members and guests (including Professors Albert Einstein and Willem de Sitter) listened, Dr. Millikan presented latest evidence for his theory...
...from Germany by steamer through the Panama Canal, Professor Albert Einstein reached Pasadena last week. He declined to cross the U. S. by rail for fear of raucous rabble, pesky newshawks. Frau Einstein was with him to worry over his comforts. He will study at prim, red-roofed California Institute of Technology and the Mount Wilson Observatory for the next two months. Professor Willem de Sitter, another cosmologist, will study with him. Meanwhile in Washington met the American Astronomical Society for its annual interpretation of the heavens. Solar Burst Dr. Ross Gunn of the Naval Research Laboratory offered a hypothesis...
...effect of revolution. If time affects the speed of light, their pictures would have shown the distortion. They found no variation, and therefore gave more substance to the Einstein assumption...
...sung the role many times at Bayreuth, will do so again in 1933. Painstaking, she studies hard, practices much, once spent a year perfecting one phase of her interpretation of Isolde. She sings in Berlin, at Covent Garden, went to Buenos Aires last summer, is a friend of Professor Einstein...
...Fundamental principle of the Jeans theory is a basic law of physics embodied in the second law of thermodynamics: energy can flow only from a more intense state of availability to a less intense state. Professor Richard Chase Tolman of the California Institute of Technology applied Professor Albert Einstein's relativity theory to thermodynamics, worked out a mathematical model of the universe in which energy does not flow continually downward, but expands and contracts in cycles, never reaching a state of equilibrium. Therefore he concluded that though the universe may be expanding in the neighborhood of the earthstars moving...
