The International Association of Science and Technology for Development currently provides a forum for Scientists, Researchers and Industry members from all over the world to interact with one another and learn the latest developments in the fields of Science and Engineering. The daughter of Polish schoolteachers, Marie Curie struggled to gain an advanced scientific education, then went on to pioneer the study of radioactivity, discover the elements polonium and radium, earn two Nobel prizes, and survive tragic personal loss and professional rivalries. She successfully combined love, marriage, motherhood, and a demanding career in the public eye. Resulting from a critical evaluation of the published literature, the database contains over 19,000 line positions, chemical shifts, doublet splittings, and energy separations of photoelectron and Auger-electron lines. A highly interactive program allows the user to search by element, line type, line energy, and many other variables.
Users can easily identify unknown measured lines by matching to previous measurements.
A library of resources and tools concerning noise pollution. Researchers will find current news summaries and full-text articles from books and journals on noise related topics. Tools for communities and activists include proposed and existing noise laws and legislation, a list of noise groups and organizations, and resources on hearing loss and occupational noise. This list is originally based on the HEP list, modified by adding nuclear physics research institutes and universities. The nug30 QAP is a problem that challenged the optimization technology community from 1968 until this June, when researchers at the University of Iowa and Argonne National Laboratories announced that they had solved the problem in seven days using 1,000 computers at 30 locations.
