Nichols' other film, "Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf? deals with much heavier issues than "The Graduate." Nichols burst onto the cinematic scene when "Who's Afraid" won two Oscars. It's not bad for a first-timer...
Chang admits that the addition of VES to his studies had "less to do with vision and more to do with circumstances. I had completed nearly all my requirements when I made the decision. I can work this out by taking a heavier courseload...
...Standard Model, a powerful theoretical edifice that has reduced a once bewildering array of subatomic particles to just a few fundamental constituents. These include three pairs of light particles known as leptons, of which the negatively charged electron and chargeless neutrino are the most familiar, and three pairs of heavier particles known by the whimsical name of quarks. "Up" and "down" quarks combine to create protons and neutrons, the components of everyday matter, while "charm" and "strange" quarks conspire to make more exotic particles, the sort produced in deep space by quasars and high-energy cosmic rays. In 1977, when...
That partner turns out to be well worth years of searching. Its apparent characteristics contain intriguing hints of an unexplored microcosmos, one that may be populated by particles far odder than any discovered to date. For the top quark is extraordinarily heavy. It is, to be exact, 200 times heavier than a proton and almost as hefty as an entire atom of gold. That an elementary particle can weigh so much, says University of Chicago physicist Henry Frisch, amounts to a "tantalizing clue." It suggests that the top is intricately entwined with the mysterious mechanism that is responsible for creating...
Normally, only two sailers compete in each division. However, with the winds "howling" the Crimson needed a heavier crew. On such occasions, Chai replaces Garfield...
