About Physicists
[From Arjen Dijksman] I'm reading about Kikuchi lines (electron diffraction) and looking for bio about S. Kikuchi but don't find. Is there any in Japanese?
[To Arjen] The bio of S. Kikuchi in Japanese: . It's regrettable that there's no English version. I should be able to help you translate part of the bio on the above page into English, if you would like it.
[From Arjen] Great! Thank you. The bio of Kikuchi should also be available in English indeed. I will see if I can work on en.wiki.
[From Arjen] I created the wiki stub from what I understood with Google translate. Thanks again.
About Physics
"Neutral molecules whirl around." Peter Zieger of the Fritz Haber Institute in Berlin and his colleagues have built a prototype molecular synchrotron for neutral molecules, a key step towards studying low-energy collisions. Nature Vol. 468, p. 136 (November 10, 2010).
"Fundamental constants: Big G revisited." Measuring Newton's constant of gravitation is a difficult task, because gravity is the weakest of all the fundamental forces. An experiment involving two simple pendulums provides a seemingly accurate but surprising value. Nature Vol. 468, p. 181 (November 10, 2010).
