Physics Today

Hamilton Standard Division of United Aircraft Corporation announced in November the formation of a research laboratory which is to be directed by Charles F. Squire, formerly professor of physics at the Rice Institute. The Division is involved primarily in the areas of jet aircraft, missiles and space systems, and aircraft propellers. Scheduled programs will include work in thermodynamics, heat transfer, electron optics, solid‐state physics, physical chemistry, and thermoelectricity. The laboratory, which is now being constructed at Hamilton Standard’s main plant at Windsor Locks, Conn., will also support the Division’s efforts in electronics, ground support equipment, missiles and space systems, electron beam technology, and advanced product planning.
