With Translated Reprints by O Klein The Oskar Klein Memorial Lectures, instituted in 1988 and supported by the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences through its Nobel Committee for Physics, are given at Stockholm University in Sweden, where Oskar Klein was professor in Theoretical Physics 1930-1962. Volume 1 contains the 1988 lectures on "Symmetry and Physics" and From the Bethe-Hulth n Hypothesis to the Yang-Baxter Equation, given by C N Yang, Nobel Prize winner (1957) and professor at the State University of New York at Stony Brook. The 1989 lectures on Beyond the Standard Models, referring to...

Presents collections of the Nobel Lectures delivered by the prizewinners, together with their biographies, portraits and the presentation speeches for the period 1981-1990. New biographical data of the laureates, since they were awarded the Nobel Prize, are also included.

This volume presents two lectures given by Hans Bethe in October 1990 and Alan H. Guth in June 1991 under the series of Oskar Klein Memorial Lectures. An expert on the theory of neutrinos, Hans Bothe's lecture dealt with two themes: the astrophysical importance of neutrinos in supernova outbursts and a theoretical account of neutrinos through observations of the neutrino flux from the centre of the sun. Anyone interested in understanding the processes involved in the collapse and explosion of a large star should find this lecture enlightening. Alan H. Guth's lecture dealt with the various...

Presented in this volume is a collection of the Nobel Lectures delivered by the prize-winners, together with their biographies, portraits and the presentation speeches for the period 1991-1995. Each Nobel Lecture is based on the work that won the laureate his prize.

This is a collection of lectures given by some of the most prominent theoretical physicists of today. In a form designed to be accessible to the interested general physicist, the book covers topics ranging from the use of field-theoretical methods in different contexts via duality symmetries between various field theories to the Ads/CFT correspondence and cosmology. The book should be of interest to researchers and graduate students in high-energy physics, theoretical physics, astrophysics, cosmology and the history of physics.

This volume is a collection of the Nobel lectures delivered by the prizewinners in physics, together with their biographies, portraits and the presentation speeches for the period 1996-2000. Each Nobel Lecture is based on the work that won the prize. This volume should be useful to physicists, students, teachers and professors of physics as well as those in related fields. Below is a list of the prizewinners during the period 1996-2000 with a description of the works for which they won the prizes: D.M. Lee, D.D. Osheroff and R.C. Richardson (1996) - for their discovery of superfluidity in...
