%%%
%%%                            Metropolis also is known for carrying

%%%                            Metropolis also coined the terms ``Monte

                 computer which has been designed and constructed at the
                 Los Alamos Scientific Laboratory. The construction
                 period dates from June of 1949 to March of 1952, when
                 the first major problem was run. Originally, the
                 intention was to reproduce the computer which was then
                 under development at the Institute for Advanced Study
                 in Princeton, New Jersey. However, it soon became clear
                 that the central problem in computer research --- a
                 suitable storage system --- was a major one, and it
                 seemed advisable to try a separate approach to that
                 solution. Eventually this supplementary development was
                 extended to the other components. Before proceeding
                 with this report, we would like to express our
                 gratitude to Professor John von Neumann and his
                 colleagues at the computer project at the Institute for
                 Advanced Study for the many fruitful and stimulating
                 discussions dating from 1944.",

  abstract =     "Nuclear cascade calculations of the Goldberger type
                 have been performed using the MANIAC electronic
                 computer. A three-dimensional relativistic treatment
                 was used. The target nuclei were Al$^{27}$, Cu$^{64}$,
                 Ru$^{100}$, Ce$^{140}$, Bi$^{209}$, and U$^{238}$.
                 Incident protons and neutrons with energies between 82
                 and 565 Mev have been studied, but meson production was
                 neglected in this energy range. Cascades initiated by
                 about 1000 incident particles were followed in each
                 case. The results have been compared with those of
                 previous calculations of this type, as well as with
                 experimental photographic-plate data and counter
                 measurements reflecting the cascade stage of
                 high-energy nuclear reactions. The agreement with
                 experimental data is usually good. Tables and graphs
                 are presented showing the frequency of occurrence of
                 various residual nuclei, and data on the residual
                 nuclear excitation energy after the cascade are over. A
                 few comparisons with radio-chemical data indicate
                 over-all agreement with the general spallation pattern
                 of copper with 540-Mev protons and good agreement with
                 the Ni$^{64}$(p,n)Cu$^{64}$ reaction over the energy
                 range 100 to 400 Mev. However, the calculated results
                 for the Cu$^{65}$(p,pn)Cu$^{64}$ reaction are low by
                 almost a factor of two, although the energy dependence
                 is approximately correct.",

  abstract =     "The authors deal with an apparently hitherto untreated
                 problem in the theory of restricted partitions: What is
                 the number $T_n^{(r)}$ of distinct partitions of the
                 composite integer $nr$ that can be made by partwise
                 addition of $n$-not necessarily distinct-partitions of
                 $r$? The answer is given in the form of a finite series
                 of binomial coefficients multiplied by certain integer
                 coefficients which depend only on $r$. In general the
                 non-vanishing $c_i^{(r)}$ must be determined by direct
                 calculation; the authors give them for all $r < 11$.
                 Several other interpretations of $T_n^{(r)}$ are given,
                 and some additional open questions concerning the
                 interpretation of the results are discussed",

                 n_1^2 + ... + n_N^2$ arises in the determination of the
                 degeneracy of a given energy level of an
                 $N$-dimensional isotropic quantum oscillator that is
                 perturbed by an isotropic quartic potential energy
                 term. This problem is solved recursively (in $N$) using
                 the concept of a multiplet, which is a finite set of
                 points in a lattice space $L^N$ whose points are
                 $N$-tuples of integers that sum to zero. The basic
                 definition and properties of multiplets are given and
                 then used to obtain the solutions to the Diophantine
                 equations described above. The classification of
                 multiplets into two types, fundamental and
                 nonfundamental, is shown to have an important role in
                 elucidating the structure of multiplets. The concept of
                 a fundamental multiplet is demonstrated to be an
                 important characterization of the solutions to a pair

  abstract =     "The central theme will be on the historical setting
                 and origins of the Monte Carlo Method. The scene was
                 post-war Los Alamos Scientific Laboratory. There was an
                 inevitability about the Monte Carlo Event: the ENIAC
                 had recently enjoyed its meteoric rise (on a classified
                 Los Alamos problem); Stan Ulam had returned to Los
                 Alamos; John von Neumann was a frequent visitor.
                 Techniques, algorithms, and applications developed
                 rapidly at Los Alamos. Soon, the fascination of the
                 Method reached wider horizons. The first paper was
                 submitted for publication in the spring of 1949. In the
                 summer of 1949, the first open conference was held at
                 the University of California at Los Angeles. Of some
                 interest perhaps is an account of Fermi's earlier,
                 independent application in neutron moderation studies
                 while at the University of Rome. The quantum leap
                 expected with the advent of massively parallel
                 processors will provide stimuli for very ambitious
                 applications of the Monte Carlo Method in disciplines
                 ranging from field theories to cosmology, including
                 more realistic models in the neurosciences. A structure
                 of multi-instruction sets for parallel processing is
                 ideally suited for the Monte Carlo approach. One may
                 even hope for a modest hardening of the soft
                 sciences.",
