American Physical Society. Annual Meeting (2016: Salt Lake City, Utah)
The New Big Science and the Transformation of Research [sound recording], 2016 April 19.
Audio recording of session X6 of the April 2016 annual meeting of the American Physical Society, held in Salt Lake City, Utah in April 2016. This session was chaired by Cameron Reed, Alma College. Talks (and speakers) include: "The New Big Science: What's New, What's Not, and What's the Difference" (Catherine Westfall); "The New Big Science at the NSLS" (Robert Crease); "European Neutrons form Parasitic Research to Global Strategy: Realizing Plans for a Transnational European Spallation Source in the Wake of the Cold War" (Thomas Kaiserfeld). Topics discussed include the idea of big science; high energy physics; accelerators; Superconducting Super Collider (SSC); Thomas Jefferson National Accelerator Facility; United States National Laboratory system; Brookhaven National Laboratory's National Synchrotron Light Source (NSLS); European Spallation Source; physical laboratories funding.
This professional society of educators, industrial and government research workers, and students of physics and related fields, was established in 1899 to promote the advancement and diffusion of the knowledge of physics. It was a founding Member Society of the American Institute of Physics. The American Physical Society (APS) meetings are a forum for scientists to gather and share research results on a wide range of physics and physics-related topics.
