He preferred physical insight to %%% mathematical rigor, and his scientific papers %%% contain few equations.

Entry Chernin:1994:GAN %%% claims there are 11 such papers, but so far, %%% this bibliography includes only the listed 9 %%% of them. However, there are other entries %%% for which no month data are available, so the %%% 2 missing April Fool's Day papers may well be %%% present here. %%% %%% According to entry Chernin:1995:GGB, three of %%% Gamow's greatest contributions to science are %%% %%% (1) discovering the quantum nature of %%% alpha decay in nuclear physics; %%% %%% (2) the theory of the hot initial state %%% of the Universe and the existence of %%% cosmic microwave background %%% radiation; and %%% %%% (3) finding the clue to the genetic code %%% in biology (see entry %%% Hayes:1998:CSI). %%% %%% Six other important contributions of the %%% work of Gamow and his students and co-authors %%% (see entry Chernin:1994:GAN) are: %%% %%% (4) the observed abundances of hydrogen %%% and helium in the Universe can be %%% accounted for by nuclear reactions in %%% the early minutes of the Big Bang; %%% %%% (5) heavier elements are synthesized much %%% later in stellar cores and supernovae %%% explosions; %%% %%% (6) the cosmic background radiation left %%% over from the Big Bang should be %%% close to absolute zero Kelvin: it %%% should be between 1 K and 10 K; %%% %%% (7) the Gamow--Teller resonance in nuclear %%% physics; %%% %%% (8) the URCA process in nuclear physics; %%% %%% (9) evolutionary paths of stars in the %%% spectrum--luminosity diagram. %%% %%% A 129-km-diameter crater on the back side of %%% the Moon is named after George Gamow: %%% %%% http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gamow_%28crater%29 %%% %%% George Gamow wrote more than 200 scientific %%% papers and popular articles, and two dozen %%% books. His co-authors include five winners %%% of the Nobel Prize in Physics: Hans Bethe %%% (1967), Felix Bloch (1952), James Chadwick %%% (1935), Subrahmanyan Chandrasekhar (1983), %%% and Lev Landau (1962); two winners of the %%% Nobel Prize in Chemistry: Ernest Rutherford %%% (1908) and Francis William Aston (1922); and %%% one winner of the Nobel Prize in Medicine: %%% Max Delbrueck (1969). %%% %%% Gamow brought Edward Teller to the USA, and %%% Gamow's influence moved Teller's work from %%% molecular physics to nuclear physics and %%% weapons development. They wrote 10 papers %%% together and the adjective Gamow--Teller is %%% attached to several concepts in physics. %%% Edward Teller and Stan Ulam, considered the %%% chief architects of the US hydrogen bomb, %%% both credited Gamow with initiating their %%% theoretical work. %%% %%% George Gamow began his undergraduate %%% university studies at Novorussiya University %%% in Odessa, just after the Russian Revolution. %%% He later moved to Petrograd State University %%% in Petrograd, USSR (renamed Leningrad after %%% Lenin's death in 1924, and renamed to its %%% original name, St. Petersburg, in 1991). %%% At the time, doctorates were not being %%% awarded in the USSR, so it may be that %%% Gamow never received an advanced degree. %%% This is confirmed by Gamow himself in the %%% interview of entry Weiner:1968:IGG. %%% Nevertheless, he is referred to as Dr. Gamow %%% in several of the publications listed in this %%% bibliography. %%% %%% Gamow later spent time with Max Born in %%% Goettingen, Germany; with Niels Bohr in %%% Copenhagen, Denmark; with Ernest Rutherford %%% in Cambridge, England; with Paul Ehrenfest in %%% Leiden, The Netherlands; and with Marie Curie %%% in Paris, France. %%% %%% Gamow met Lyubova `Rho' Vokhminzeva, also a %%% physicist, at the Moscow passport office in %%% 1931, where he was waiting for a passport. %%% They married in November 1931. After three %%% aborted escape attempts, he and Rho traveled, %%% with government authorization, from Russia to %%% the Solvay Conference in Brussels, Belgium in %%% October 1933, and never returned to Russia. %%% As a result, Gamow's work was ignored or %%% suppressed during Soviet times, and it was %%% not until decades later, after the breakup of %%% the USSR, that his work reappeared in the %%% Russian scientific literature. %%% %%% In the summer of 1934, George and Rho arrived %%% in the US, where George took up a position at %%% The George Washington University in %%% Washington, DC, where he remained for many %%% years. He recruited his friend, Edward %%% Teller, to GWU, and Gamow became a US citizen %%% in 1940. %%% %%% Gamow worked on stellar theory from 1938 to %%% 1945, relativistic cosmogony from 1945 to %%% 1952, and protein coding from 1953 to 1955. %%% In 1956, he and Rho were divorced, and George %%% moved to the University of Colorado in %%% Boulder, a position that he held until his %%% death in 1968. %%% %%% One of Gamow's early teaching jobs came with %%% the rank and uniform of a colonel in the %%% USSR's Red Army. That fact, and his general %%% jocularity and over-consumption of alcohol, %%% probably made him untrustworthy in the view %%% of the US Government. Consequently, unlike %%% most of the famous atomic and nuclear %%% physicist on both sides of World War II, %%% Gamow did not work on the war-time %%% development of nuclear weapons. Instead, he %%% met with Albert Einstein every two weeks, and %%% together, they worked as consultants to the %%% US Navy's Division of High Explosives %%% (conventional, not nuclear), as well as %%% discussing questions of theoretical physics. %%% %%% In 1948, however, Gamow was invited to %%% consult on the hydrogen bomb project at Los %%% Alamos, perhaps because of his long-term %%% friendship with project leader Edward Teller, %%% and Gamow was a regular visitor to Los Alamos %%% for many years. That part of his work %%% remains classified, and unknown to the %%% public. Gamow joked that his main %%% contribution to the hydrogen-bomb work was %%% bringing Edward Teller to the USA. %%% %%% Gamow was one of the first to apply quantum %%% mechanics to the atomic nucleus, with his %%% first paper (entry Gamow:1928:QAG) on that %%% subject written when he was only 24 years %%% old. %%% %%% One of Gamow's main research areas was the %%% origin of the chemical elements, and the %%% structure and evolution of stars. Starting %%% in 1935, he organized several conferences in %%% theoretical physics at The George Washington %%% University. Discussions at the March 1938 %%% conference resulted in the paper in entry %%% Chandrasekhar:1938:PSE, and led Hans Bethe to %%% return to Cornell University, where in a %%% month of intense research, Bethe worked out %%% the details of all of the nuclear reactions %%% that power stars (see entries Bethe:1939:EPS, %%% Hoyle:1946:SEH, and Hoyle:1954:NRO). Bethe %%% received the 1967 Nobel Prize in Physics %%% ``for his contributions to the theory of %%% nuclear reactions, especially his discoveries %%% concerning the energy production in stars'': %%% %%% http://www.nobelprize.org/nobel_prizes/physics/laureates/1967/ %%% %%% The famous `alpha-beta-gamma' paper (entry %%% Alpher:1948:OCE) addresses the origin of the %%% chemical elements. While its details were %%% later shown to be wrong, it is an important %%% historical source for the Big Bang theory of %%% the evolution of the Universe. For a %%% retrospective, see entries Turner:2008:PCA %%% and Amett:2009:HHN. The correct details of %%% element formation were first worked out in %%% the long paper in entry Burbidge:1957:SES, %%% known as the B2FH paper, after the authors' %%% initials: %%% %%% http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/B2FH_paper %%% %%% For a discussion of the importance of that %%% paper, see entries Weinberg:1972:GCP, %%% Weinberg:1977:FTM and Weinberg:1993:FTM. %%% %%% In papers from 1928 to 1936, Gamow proposed a %%% liquid-drop model of nuclear structure, and %%% already in 1928, discussed nuclear %%% disintegration (later named `nuclear fission' %%% by Otto Robert Frisch). Werner Heisenberg %%% (1934), C. F. von Weizs{\"a}cker (1935), and %%% Hans Bethe and R. F. Bacher (1936) further %%% developed the liquid-drop model, although the %%% last two did not cite Gamow. Niels Bohr also %%% developed a variant of that idea in 1936 %%% (again without citing Gamow, even though %%% Gamow had discussed the model first with %%% Bohr, and then with Rutherford, before %%% publishing the paper of entry %%% Gamow:1929:DSA). In December 1938, Lise %%% Meitner and her nephew Otto Robert Frisch %%% built on those ideas to propose a theoretical %%% understanding of nuclear fission that had %%% been discovered just a few weeks earlier by %%% Meitner's close friends and colleagues, Otto %%% Hahn and Fritz Strassmann. That theory was %%% further developed by Niels Bohr and John %%% Archibald Wheeler, who published their work %%% in September 1939, just as World War II %%% began. The Manhattan Project was formally %%% begun in October 1942, and led to the %%% development and successful test of the first %%% atomic bomb at the Trinity Site near %%% Alamogordo, New Mexico, on July 16, 1945. %%% See entries Stuewer:1994:OLD and %%% Stuewer:1997:GAD for the historical detective %%% work that solidly documents Gamow's critical %%% role in understanding nuclear fission, and %%% gives Gamow, rather than Bohr, Wheeler, and %%% others, credit for the original liquid-drop %%% model. %%% %%% In 1946, Gamow predicted the constant Cosmic %%% Microwave Background Radiation (CMBR) and %%% that work was first published in the paper of %%% entry Alpher:1948:TRE. However, the idea did %%% not catch on with experimental physicists, %%% and the CMBR was later discovered %%% experimentally by Arno Penzias and Robert %%% Wilson at Bell Laboratories in New Jersey in %%% 1964 when they attempted to identify the %%% source of constant background noise in their %%% radio-telescope antenna. At the time, they %%% were unaware of Gamow's earlier work that %%% predicted that phenomenon. The Penzias and %%% Wilson work was published in 1965 together %%% with a paper on the theoretical reason for %%% that noise, written by Princeton University %%% physicists Robert H. Dicke, P. J. E. Peebles, %%% P. G. Roll, and D. T. Wilkinson. Penzias and %%% Wilson shared the 1978 Nobel Prize in Physics %%% %%% http://www.nobelprize.org/nobel_prizes/physics/laureates/1978/ %%% %%% with Pyotr Leonidovich Kapitsa. The Penzias %%% and Wilson half was ``for their discovery of %%% cosmic microwave background radiation'', the %%% first compelling evidence for the correctness %%% of the Big Bang theory, and the disproof of %%% the competing steady-state theory promoted by %%% Fred Hoyle and co-workers (see entries %%% Alpher:1990:EWB and Hoyle:1990:AEA). Gamow's %%% original prediction was a background %%% radiation of about 7 K (1953) or 6 K (1956) %%% (see entries Chernin:1994:HGC and %%% Chernin:1995:GGB), and his co-workers Alpher %%% and Herman found 5 K (entries %%% Alpher:1948:NCT, Alpher:1948:RAE, and %%% Alpher:1990:EWB) by using a much more %%% complicated theory and calculation. The %%% Penzias and Wilson experiments showed it to %%% be about 3 K. See entries Penzias:1979:OE %%% and Wilson:1979:CMB for their Nobel Lectures. %%% Those results were refined in experiments %%% with the COBE (COsmic Background Explorer) %%% satellite in the early 1990s to 2.730 +/- %%% 0.060 K, and then to 2.726 +/- 0.001 K (entry %%% Mather:1993:C), for which George Smoot and %%% John Mather received the Nobel Prize in %%% Physics in 2006. Cosmic background radiation %%% is an important aspect of modern cosmology %%% that receives chapter-length treatment in %%% several books (see, for example, entries %%% Peebles:1971:PC, Weinberg:1972:GCP, %%% Weinberg:1977:FTM, Peebles:1993:PPC, %%% Weinberg:1993:FTM, Jones:2004:IGC, %%% Carroll:2007:IMA, and Weinberg:2008:C). %%% %%% See entry Gamow:1970:MWL for an %%% autobiography, entries Chernin:1994:GAN, %%% Chernin:1994:HGC, Chernin:1995:GGB, %%% Harper:2001:GGS, Hufbauer:2009:GG, and %%% Segre:2011:OGM for biographies, entry %%% Gingerich:1994:SWA for anecdotes, and entry %%% Weiner:1968:IGG for a long interview.

It is found that in the case of ordinary thermonuclear reactions, with the absence of selective temperature effects (nuclear resonance) the central temperature and luminosity of the star (with constant mass) will rapidly increase in the process of evolution. If, however, such selective effects are present, the energy-production at the center of the star will cease, beginning with the stage when the central temperature reaches the selective value, and energy will be produced only in a spherical shell around the center. This shell will have exactly the selective temperature value corresponding to the thermonuclear reaction in question, and its radius will slowly increase in the process of evolution causing a very slow increase of luminosity. Finally, in the third stage of evolution, when all hydrogen necessary for thermonuclear reactions has been consumed, the star will start a rapid contraction and, passing through the high density stage, will end its life as a cool body.

This must cause a rapid contraction of the stellar body ultimately resulting in a catastrophic collapse. It is shown that energy losses through the neutrinos produced in reactions between free electrons and oxygen nuclei can cause a complete collapse of the star within the time period of half an hour. Although the main energy losses in such collapses are due to neutrino emission which escapes direct observation. the heating of the body of a collapsing star must necessarily lead to the rapid expansion of the outer layers and the tremendous increase of luminosity.

It is shown that at a certain stage of contraction the star must reach the maximum of its luminosity, and it is calculated that for the star masses of 5, 10, 20, and 40 suns the maximum luminosities are 1$\times$ 10$^5$, 4$\times$ 10$^5$, 1$\times$ 10$^6$, and 4$\times$ 10$^6$ suns, respectively. In the later contractive stages total luminosity of the star remains constant whereas its visual luminosity rapidly deceases because of the shift of energy into the ultraviolet part of the spectrum. It is to be expected that for such high values of the (luminosity)/(mass) ratio, radiation pressure becomes strong enough to eject stellar atmospheres into the surrounding space, and it is shown that the ejection will actually take place if the force of gravity on the stellar surface will be somewhat reduced by the centrifugal force due to axial rotation. It is also shown that under the conditions existing in the ejective atmospheres of Wolf--Rayet stars, radiation pressure is primarily due to the light scattering by free electrons. In discussing the motion of the ejected gases, it may be necessary to assume that their original velocity of about 2000 km/sec. can be considerably reduced by the gravitational action of the star. If this is the case, gaseous envelopes which will form around Wolf--Rayet stars in the course of several centuries will possess properties very similar to those of the planetary nebulae. This would indicate a close evolutionary relationship between these two classes of celestial objects. An alternative evolutionary road of a massive star consists in the formation of an energy-producing shell, which will take place in all cases where the convective currents due to axial rotation are not fast enough to secure homogeneity of stellar matter. It is indicated that the growth of such shells will probably lead to the formation of an extensive atmosphere which offers certain possibilities for the interpretation of the so-called red giant stars as intermediate evolutionary stages between the stars of the main sequence and the Wolf--Rayet stars.

The second theory is Niels Bohr's 1936 theory of the compound nucleus, which describes the way in which particles may be released from the nucleus or that the nucleus may be destroyed by raising the energy of a particle which strikes the nucleus. The author suggests that Meitner and Frisch combined those two theories reach a theory of fission that describes how a nucleus may be split and the energy that is produced.

Here Segr{\`e} honors them in his typically inviting and elegant style and shows readers how they were far from ``ordinary''. While portraying their personal lives Segr{\`e}, a scientist himself, gives readers an inside look at how science is done--collaboration, competition, the influence of politics, the role of intuition and luck, and the sense of wonder and curiosity that fuels these extraordinary minds.

It explores current research, advances, and ideas for future directions not only in the foundations of mathematics and logic, but also in the fields of computer science, artificial intelligence, physics, cosmology, philosophy, theology, and the history of science. The discussion is supplemented by personal reflections from several scholars who knew G{\"o}del personally, providing some interesting insights into his life. By putting his ideas and life's work into the context of current thinking and perceptions, this book will extend the impact of G{\"o}del's fundamental work in mathematics, logic, philosophy, and other disciplines for future generations of researchers.", acknowledgement = ack-nhfb, subject = "G{\"o}del's theorem; Mathematics; Philosophy; G{\"o}del, Kurt", tableofcontents = "Part I.
