3. Low temperature expansion for the 3-d Ising Model

Author

Bhanot, Gyan, Creutz, Michael, and Lacki, Jan

Subjects
High Energy Physics - Lattice
Abstract

We compute the weak coupling expansion for the energy of the three dimensional Ising model through 48 excited bonds. We also compute the magnetization through 40 excited bonds. This was achieved via a recursive enumeration of states of fixed energy on a set of finite lattices. We use a linear combination of lattices with a generalization of helical boundary conditions to eliminate finite volume effects., Comment: 10 pages, IASSNS-HEP-92/42, BNL-47671

15. The Physical Tourist: Geneva: From the Science of the Enlightenment to CERN

Author

Lacki, Jan and Lacki, Jan

Abstract

John Calvin (1509-1564) founded a College and Academy in Geneva in 1559, the latter of which, through the efforts of many of its scholars, was finally declared to be a genuine university, the University of Geneva, in 1872. Meanwhile, thanks to the outstanding achievements of the rich, patrician Genevan scientists, in particular during the 18th century, Geneva secured a prominent place in European learned society. With the appointment of Charles-Eugène Guye (1866-1942) to the University of Geneva in 1900, Genevan research entered resolutely into 20th-century physics, particularly relativity, and continued to gain momentum before and after the Second World War when, in 1953, Geneva was chosen as the site of one of the most prestigious scientific laboratories in the world, CERN. I sketch these developments, pointing out many of the locations where they occurred in Geneva
