Natural sciences 116, "Basic Concepts of Mathematics," is a new experiment: an attempt to introduce non-mathematicians to the power and methods of advanced mathematics without the drudgery of detailed mechanical exercise. Andrew E. Gleason, who teaches the course in Sever 17, is one of the Mathematics department's best...
Research experts pushed out another eye-opening original experiment in the field of Biology. Stanley Miler and Harold Usey received the nod for their study dealing with the synthesis of anime-acids in considerable quanities by the passage of an electric spark through a mixture of methane, ammonia, hydrogen, and...
Practical Results. Colonel Flickinger believes that human tolerance might be increased to 90 or 100 Gs if the passenger took the impact lying transversely to the sled's motion on a properly contoured support. But he does not believe that this experiment will be tried soon. "It is not...
Prophets of agricultural doom are fond of saying that U.S. farms are rapidly losing their fertility and will some day turn into sterile wastelands. This is not happening in one long-cultivated U.S. region. C.L.W. Swanson. chief soil scientist of the Connecticut Agricultural Experiment Station, says that the farmland of...
It was a big step for a computer to venture from the relatively precise fields of mathematics and physics into the more nebulous realm of language translation. But the IBM scientists and Georgetown University linguists who had helped set up the experiment thought it was an auspicious start. With a...
