(Oops...already broken.)” Howard Georgi ’67, Mallinckrodt Professor of Physics: “I am afraid that my New Year’s resolution is just to make it through February! But more seriously, I have to keep reminding myself to stay positive and look for opportunities even in the difficult economic climate of Harvard today...
Arriving as a visiting professor, Knowles became a permanent member of the chemistry department the following year. Having accepted tenure, he was given a lab in the Mallinckrodt building, overseeing the work of 15 researchers...
...love to be able to say I invented the doo-hickey to do...whatever,” said Franklin, the Mallinckrodt professor of physics...
...discovered a “quantum-mechanical magic trick” by finding a way to stop a pulse of light in one part of space and make it reappear two tenths of a millimeter away, according to researchers at the University’s Hau Laboratory. Led by Mallinckrodt Professor of Physics Lene V. Hau, the experiment involved firing lasers through two clouds of sodium atoms cooled to a few billionths of a degree above absolute zero. At such cold temperatures the atoms’ motions are virtually halted, and they begin to behave more like waves than particles...
