Goldenes
Lamm Dinner with Laureates |
|
| On
the evening of June 26, DOE/ORAU sponsored a dinner for
the U.S. students and approximately half of the laureates.
This allowed the group to have some "quality"
time with the laureates away from the crowds at the
Inselhalle. Tomorrow, DOE/ORAU will sponsor a similar
luncheon for the remaining laureates, giving everyone in the
group the opportunity to meet and talk with all of the
laureates attending the 2001 meeting. |

 |
| Professor
Zhores Alferov, from St. Petersburg, Russia, discusses
"Heterostructures: The State of the Art and Future
Trends" as part of the general presentations given
Tuesday morning. This is Professor Alferov's first year at
the meeting. (Nobel Prize in Physics, 2000) |
Dr.
Leo Esaki“s presentation was titled "Modern Alchemy:
Engineered Quantum Structures." The Inselhalle was
nearly filled this morning and everyone was both informed and
entertained by Dr. Esaki.

Dr.
Leo Esaki earned the Nobel Prize in
Physics in 1973 and has
attended
several Lindau meetings.

The
DOE/ORAU participants gathered at the Goldenes Lamm for
Dinner with the Laureates. The dinner, sponsored by DOE and
ORAU, allows the group to meet and talk with several
laureates in a relaxed atmosphere away from the crowded
Inselhalle. Joining the students for dinner were Dr. Brian
David Josephson (Nobel Prize, 1973) from Cambridge
University in England; Douglas Osheroff (Nobel Prize, 1996)
from Stanford, USA; and William (Bill) Phillips (Nobel
Prize, 1997) from the National Institute of Standards and
Technology, Gaithersburg, Md., USA. Also joining the group
for dinner was Dr. John McClure from DOE.

| Dr.
Douglas Osheroff (Nobel Prize, 1996) from Stanford, Calif., received his Nobel Prize in
1996 for his discovery of superfluidity of helium-3.
Osheroff told the group that he enjoys teaching as much as
research. According to Mark Makela (to Osheroff“s right),
the conversation was lively and interesting all through
dinner. Osheroff made a point of making sure that each
person at the table had the opportunity to discuss his or
her interests.
