The physics of liquids …a conference report

JAN 01, 1965

Under the sponsorship of the National Science Foundation, the Physics Department of John Carroll University played host to about sixty researchers in the field of the physics of liquids at a fourday conference from June 1 through June 4, 1964. Although the meeting was built around a nucleus of prepared talks, several of the participants preferred the more informal approach of participating from the floor in all of the talks. Among the latter were Daniele Sette of the University of Rome, Henry S. Frank of the University of Pittsburgh, Martin Greenspan of the National Bureau of Standards, and Robert T. Beyer of Brown University. As a matter of fact, most of those delivering talks preferred to think of themselves as discussion leaders rather than lecturers.
