People and papers—The January meeting
DOI: 10.1063/1.3047989
Later this month the American Association of Physics Teachers and the American Physical Society will hold their joint annual meeting at the New York Hilton. AAPT has scheduled 90 papers covering subjects from A to V: from “Advent of quantum theory” to “Visual aids.” APS will have over 800 invited and contributed papers ranging from the primordial fireball to meson factories. Putting the right paper in the right place is a problem, according to Karl K. Darrow and William W. Havens, Jr., whom we interviewed recently. Both APS and AAPT will install officers and award prizes. The societies will hold a ceremonial session, and the American Institute of Physics will sponsor the 14th annual physics show.
