In 1969, Professor Gell-Mann received the Nobel Prize in physics for his work on the theory of elementary particles. His "eightfold way" theory brought order to the chaos created by the discovery of some 100 particles in the atom's nucleus. Then he found that all of those particles, including the neutron and proton, are composed of fundamental building blocks that he named "quarks."

Extractions: Murray Gell-Mann, son of an austrian immigrant was born on September 15, 1929 in New York. Gell-mann worked for a short time at the Institute for Advanced Studies in Princeton, New Jersey before joining the faculty at the University of Chicago. He then later went on to become a professor at the California Institute of Technology. Gell-mann is perhaps best known of his discovery of classification scheme for nuclear particles and their interactions which got him the nobel prize in 1969. This led to his "8-fold way" theory which brought order to the discovery of 100 nuclear particles (particles found in the atom's nucleus). He would also later find out that all these particles, including the proton and neutron, were made of even smaller particles which he introduced as quarks. Murray Gell-Mann still lives today and works as a professor at the Science Board of the Sante Fe Institute.

Extractions: Nobel prize-winning physicist Murray Gell-Mann used his tie to explain effective complexity during his keynote address at the Embedded Systems Conference in San Francisco this week. Using the patterns on his own tie and others he brought (one notably a brand favored by Monica Lewinsky), Gell-Mann, the man who first identified and named the elementary particle known as the quark, demonstrated the difference between simplicity and complexity, defining complexity, known as "effective complexity" in scientific discourse, as the length of a compressed description of a subject's regularities as opposed to its random or incidental features. The regularities on complex-patterned ties take longer to describe than those on simple striped ties. Randomness versus regularity, however, is subjective, depending on who is judging and in what context. For instance, he does not look at the coffee stains on his tie when he's describing its regularities, whereas to his drycleaner the stains are the only regularities.

Extractions: Comment: George Johnson beautifully describes the life and work of the Nobel-Prize physicist Murray Gell-Mann and the revolutionary history of elementary particle physics. In addition to how the important discoveries of the Eightfold Way and quarks were made, we learn Gell-Mann's diverse interests in linguistics, ornithology, archaeology, environmental problems and complex phenomena. The author writes not only about the physicist's brilliance and success but also his human frailties such as his experiences of writer's block and procrastination and his brooding temper, thus making the biography complete as viewed from every side. This is a good book for laypersons as well as for physicists.

Extractions: Murray Gell-Mann Biography B orn on September 15, 1929, in New York, New York, Murray Gell-Mann had a passion for learning that was seemingly inborn and insatiable. Son of Austrian-Hungarian immigrants, Murray and his brother, Ben, frequently visited museums and zoos, and explored their urban environment in an endless quest for knowledge. The passion for education was a family tradition, as Murray's father, Arthur Gell-Mann, established the Arthur Gell-Mann School of Languages, where he taught other immigrants to speak impeccable English. Arthur urged Murray to study all subjects, especially physical science and mathematicstwo subjects that Murray would later revolutionize with his brilliant ideas. Today, Murray Gell-Mann is Professor and Co-Chairman of the Science Board of the Santa Fe Institute (SFI). His book, The Quark and the Jaguar: Adventures in the Simple and the Complex , deals with Complex Adaptive Systems (see below), which are the focus of study at SFI. Gell-Mann's esteemed position at SFI is the result of his expertise in physics as well as cultural and linguistic studies. In 1969, Gell-Mann received the Nobel Prize in Physics for his research on elementary particles. He invented the "Eightfold Way" theory that attempted to harmonize over 100 chaotic subatomic particles within the nucleus of an atom. He discovered the most elementary particle known to science and named it the "quark". Using his data about quarks, Gell-Mann formed theories about the properties within an atom that keep the nucleus bound together.

Extractions: ISBN: 224 04427 3 reviewed by Ann Skea "There is no excellent beauty that hath not some strangeness in the proportion". Francis Bacon. (Quoted by Murray Gell-Mann in an article explaining his theory of cosmic-ray particles whose behaviour seemed to defy the laws of physics.) George Johnson's choice of this poetic quotation to preface his biography of Murray Gell-Mann, is as good an example of his own apprehension of the poetic beauty of sub-atomic physics as it is of the breadth of Gell-Mann's learning and interests. Johnson, who is a science editor for the New York Times, writes fluent prose which is a pleasure to read. It captures the strange beauty of the sub-atomic world and the fascination of it: "It is sometimes said," he writes, "that the cathedrals of the late twentieth century are the giant particle accelerators, monuments to the belieffar from obvious on its facethat buried beneath the rough surface of the world we inhabit is a crystalline order so beautiful and subtle that the mind can barely grasp it." Johnson's own mind, like those of the physicists he writes about, grasps most of the theory describing this order, and he is superbly able to describe this abstract and abstruse theory in every-day, easily understandable terms. Writing of quantum wave theory, for example, he makes the different kinds of waves (scalar, vector, axial vector, pseudoscalar, tensor) like fingers on a hand held up to a mirror: "move your hand into the mirror and your double will seem to be pushing its hand outward; the vector is reversed. A axial vector is an arrow....it is not reversed in a mirror..."; and group theory mathematics is depicted by rotating a book or flipping it end-over-endoperations which physicists describe in complicated formulae but which Johnson makes sound simple.

Extractions: News By Angela Martello Date: November 12, 1990 Advances in transplant science, synthetic organic chemistry, and the study of quarks have allowed six North American scientists to sweep this year's three Nobel science prizes. E. Donnall Thomas, 70, and Joseph E. Murray, 71, shared the Nobel Prize in medicine or physiology for their work in transplant medicine. Thomas, director emeritus of the Seattle-based Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center's Division of Clinical Research, was cited for his pivotal work on bone marrow transplantationa treatment often offered as a last hope for patients afflicted with various types of leukemia and other blood-related and genetic disorders. In 1956, Thomas successfully transplanted donor marrow into a human patient. Thomas's Nobel Prize came swiftly on the heels of another highly regarded award: He and six other researchers recently received the 1990 Gairdner Foundation International Awards in recognition of their contributions to medical science (see People, page 25 of this issue). Murray, professor of surgery, emeritus, at Harvard Medical School and Brigham and Women's Hospital in Boston, was recognized by the Nobel committee for his pioneering work in transplant medicine. In 1954, Murray performed the first successful kidney transplant between identical twins. He later championed the use of organs from deceased donors and demonstrated that the application of whole body irradiation could induce immunosuppression, thus reducing the risk that the recipient would reject the donated organ.
