Extractions: His Research at Trinity University March 14, 2000 - Nobel Prize winning physicist Steven Chu will discuss his research in a lecture at Trinity University on Tuesday, April 4, at 8 p.m. in Laurie Auditorium. Chu is professor of physics and applied physics at Stanford University. His presentation, "Watching Enzymes Unfold and Refold, One Molecule at a Time," is the DeCoursey Nobel Lecture. Admission is free. Chu was one of the first scientists to figure out how laser beams could be used to exert forces on a small particle, such as a biological cell. Known as "optical tweezers," this method is used to trap microscopic particles in water and is having major implications in biology and medicine. Chu also invented optical "molasses" in which laser beams can be used to slow individual atoms down to such a slow speed that they acquire a temperature only a very small fraction of a degree above absolute zero. His work on optical molasses, which led to a Nobel Prize, allowed researchers to make atoms so cold that a completely new state of matter was observed. This peculiar state of matter, known as the Bose-Einstein condensate, represents one of the most important discoveries in physics in the last 50 years. Chu has also developed methods to simultaneously visualize and manipulate single bio-molecules. The recipient of numerous awards, including a Humboldt Senior Scientist award and a Guggenheim Fellowship, Chu was co-winner of the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1997. He is a member of the National Academy of Sciences and the American Academy of Arts and Sciences.

October 17, 1997, Hour 2:Steven Pinker/Bill Phillips And Steven Chu

Extractions: How is it that we come to be able to do the things we do? How do we manage to remember things, make choices, act intuitively, fall in love, use common sense even talk? According to cognitive scientist Steven Pinker, we have the skills we have and act the way we do because of the way that our brains have evolved. The human brain, Pinker argues, is made up of many different highly specialized modules, just as a machine or a computer program is made up of different units. These modules have slowly evolved to deal with the human environment but they have adapted themselves to deal with a Stone Age world, populated by nomadic hunter-gatherers, not our modern world. Evolution takes a long time, Pinker argues - and modern life has only existed for a blink of an eye, evolutionarily speaking. As a result, some parts of human behavior really don't have a good explanation in today's world - because they aren't responding to today's world. photo by Bethany Versoy Pinker's new book, "How the Mind Works," draws connections between evolutionary psychology and artificial intelligence in unusual ways. Some people, especially neurobiologists and evolutionary biologists, find some of Pinker's assertions faulty. Join host Ira Flatow as he talks to Steven Pinker about his ideas of how the mind works, on this segment of Science Friday.

Extractions: Could you explain something about the physics of slowing those atoms down of creating what you came to call optical molasses? What are the actual dynamics of the molasses? Sketch 1. Intuitively, what did you expect to happen? Did you expect some other result? We were expecting that the damping forces that slowed down the atom would not be that strong ... [but we] put the atoms in the optical molasses, and they cooled to the temperatures predicted and they hung around for the time predicted. When Eric Cornell, Carl Wieman and their coworkers at the National Institute of Standards and the University of Colorado created the first Bose-Einstein condensation of a dilute gas in 1995, what was your reaction to that accomplishment? What would you say is the significance of creating this condensate? What have been some of the other applications of atom cooling and trapping? Sketch 2.

Extractions: AP Physics Leads to Nobel Prize On the morning of October 15, 1997, the winners of the Nobel Prize for Physics were announced; they included two Americans, Steven Chu and William Phillips, and a French colleague, Claude Cohen-Tanoudji. That same evening, Steven Chu was interviewed for PBS's NewsHour, in which he credited former AP Physics teacher, Thomas Miner, for his role in attracting him to the subject: "I had a terrific high school Physics teacher in public school in Garden City, Long Island, New York. I had Physics as a junior, and then had Advanced Placement Physics as a senior. It was absolutely wonderful ..." About Thomas Miner So what was it that made Chu's AP Physics teacher so special? We decided to ask Stephen Chu to elaborate on his statement. Chu told us, "He was very clear, quiet, not at all flashy. What he said was always correct. I have a son in tenth grade, and am sometimes horrified to see facts that are basically wrong in his textbooks. One could trust Thomas Miner to always be right." In addition, Miner inspired a true love of physics in his students. Chu can distinctly remember a lecture in which Miner explained the essence of the subject. Studying physics, he said, involves asking very simple questions. "Unlike biology, which deals with important but complex problems, or literature and art that deal with even more complex issues where you're studying deep and profound questions, physics deals with really simple questions, which can be resolved through experiments. With these small steps, a solid foundation is built so that the next generation of scientists can build on the ideas and experiments with confidence." Miner explained that, in physics, progress is made in "itty bitty steps, each one accumulating over time."

Extractions: SCIENCE Introduction Dr. Chen Ning Yang Dr. Tsung Dao Lee Dr. Steven Chu ... Samuel C.C. Ting INTRODUCTION All the way to the earlier time of this century, the most important and successful thing the Chinese have contributed to the U.S. society was the railroad. Now, in 1998, we can tell you that Chinese have done a lot besides the railroad building. One of the things we are so proud of is a number of famous scientists have discovered a lot to help our society. All these successful Chinese American scientists share one common point. It is that they are all proud to be Chinese and they have tried their best to contribute something to their second mother, that is America. Their inventions shocked the whole world. Let's hear some of their stories. Dr. Chen Ning Yang : Chen Ning Yang, Nobel Prize recipient and Director of the Theoretical Physics Department at State University of New York at Stony Book, is the 1992 Roy E. Moon Distinguished Lecturer in Science at Angelo State University. He is among the word's foremost theoretical physicists and mathematicians and is known for his work on elementary particles.

Extractions: WINS 1997 NOBEL PRIZE IN PHYSICS FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: Contact: Linda Joy Oct. 15, 1997 NIST 97-26 William D. Phillips , a leading researcher in ultra-low temperature atomic physics at the National Institute of Standards and Technology, today was named a co-winner of the 1997 Nobel Prize in Physics . He shares the award with Steven Chu of Stanford University and Claude Cohen-Tannoudji, Collège de France and École Normale Supérieure, Paris, France. The Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences selected the trio for work they did independently on the development of methods to cool and trap atoms with laser light. Phillips will receive his Nobel Prize in Stockholm, Sweden, on Dec. 10, 1997. A resident of Gaithersburg, Md., and a NIST Fellow since 1996, Phillips is internationally known for advancing basic knowledge and new techniques to chill atoms to extremely low temperatures. The cooling and trapping of atoms , a discipline that emerged in the mid-1970s with the advent of laboratory lasers, have allowed scientists to observe and measure quantum phenomena in atoms that seem to defy the physical principles governing our tangible room-temperature realm. After earning his Ph.D. in physics and completing post-doctoral research at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Phillips came to NIST (then the National Bureau of Standards) in 1978. His official duties at NBS originally were related to precision electrical measurements. However, he explains, he was allowed to use "stolen moments to dabble in laser-cooling" with lab equipment he brought from MIT. With encouragement from NBS management, he expanded the experiments and demonstrated that a beam of neutral atoms could be slowed and cooled with radiation pressure from a laser.

Extractions: Steven Chu shared the 1997 Nobel Prize in Physics for the development of methods to cool and trap atoms with laser light. Chu's parents had come to the United States in the early 1940s to study and decided to stay when war made a return to China unlikely. His family tree claims many scientists and engineers, and Chu professes to be the academic black sheep, holding only one advanced degree. While his illustrious relatives attended Ivy League schools, future Nobelist Chu attended the University of Rochester for his undergraduate degree and Berkeley for graduate work. In 1978 he went to work at Bell Laboratories, where he did his award-winning work. He went on to teach at Stanford and continued his laser cooling and trapping work, as well as research on polymer physics and biology.

http://physics.nist.gov/News/Nobel/OtherSites/physics97.html

Extractions: The slowing down effect described above forms the basis for a powerful method of cooling atoms with laser light. The method was developed around 1985 by Steven Chu and his co-workers at the Bell Laboratories in Holmdel, New Jersey. They used six laser beams opposed in pairs and arranged in three directions at right angles to each other. Sodium atoms from a beam in vacuum were first stopped by an opposed laser beam and then conducted to the intersection of the six cooling laser beams. The light in all six laser beams was slightly red-shifted compared with the characteristic colour absorbed by a stationary sodium atom. The effect was that whichever direction the sodium atoms tried to move they were met by photons of the right energy and pushed back into the area where the six laser beams intersected. At that point there formed what to the naked eye looked like a glowing cloud the size of a pea, consisting of about a million chilled atoms. This type of cooling was named Doppler cooling.

Extractions: Love of science is what makes a great scientist, and Steven Chu is downright passionate about his work. Chu, winner of the 1997 Nobel Prize in physics and a professor at Stanford University, is friendly and talkative in any situation, but he is always thinking about his work. His achievement, developing methods to cool and trap atoms using laser light, allows scientists to cool gas molecules to fractions of a degree above absolute zero, making it possible to ``grab'' molecules or watch them fall under the force of gravity. This discovery has helped scientists in many fields and has future applications. Chu has applied these techniques to manipulate individual DNA strands and to increase the accuracy of atomic clocks. Chu recently discussed his work and its impact with Michael Smith, who graduated from Palo Alto High in June. Smith plans to attend Stanford in the fall. Smith :What first made you interested in science?
