Описание: Abstract: The results of the calculations of extremely accurate wave functions for the ground state of two helium atoms, including energies obtained from these wave functions, are presented herein. These energies provide a variational upper bound to the Born-Oppenheimer potential curve for this system. The necessary expectation values were calculated by biased Monte Carlo techniques at seven internuclear distances. The energy obtained from the trial wave function at the potential minimum is -11.6149685 0.0000030 Ry giving a well depth of -7.10 0.30 x 10 -5 Ry at the nuclear separation distance of 5.6 Bohr radii (a"). It is estimated that this energy is above the energy of the exact wave function by no more than 1.8 x 10 -6 Ry. The extremely small Monte Carlo standard deviation (a) of 3.0 x 10 Ry was made possible through a combination of the three factors: 1. Evaluation of the integrands for many (over 10 ) Monte Carlo points. For the seven internuclear distances this took a total of about 50 hours of CPU time on an Amdahl 47 0/V6. 2. Monte Carlo methods (which allowed for analytic removal of all singularities) for finding good weight function. 3. The extremely accurate wave functions reported herein. These wave functions, in fact, were found by minimizing, rather than the energy (), the standard deviation in this energy (a) which is zero for a perfect wave function. This enabled us to optimize the set of values for the 2 9 variational parameters by using very few Monte Carlo points and, therefore, made this step financially feasible. Monte Carlo evaluation of the integrals allows total freedom to choose a natural and concise expansion for the wave functions. The wave functions used combine Schwartz's 189-term Hylleraas-type atomic wave function with molecular terms containing dipole-dipole, dipole-quadrupole, and further terms in the expansion of the interatomic potential energy. The Born-Oppenheimer potential curve found in this work is in rough agreement with the experimental results of Burgmans, Farrar, and Lee (BFL) . The greatest departure is at the nuclear separation distance of 5.6 ab, where the potential found is 1.3a below the BFL result of -6.70 Ry. Therefore the upper bound found herein should be considered to be in agreement with the BFL potential curve with just a hint that the exact curve is deeper than the BFL curve.

J. Robert Oppenheimer was one of the outstanding physicists of his generation. He was also an immensely gifted writer and speaker, who thought deeply about the way that scientific discoveries have changed the way people live and think. Displaying his subtlety of thought and expression as do few other documents, this book of his lectures discusses the moral and cultural implications of developments in modern physics.
Originally published in 1989. The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press. These editions preserve the original texts of these important books while presenting them in durable paperback and hardcover editions. The goal of the Princeton Legacy Library is to vastly increase access to the rich scholarly heritage found in the thousands of books published by Princeton University Press since its founding in 1905.

J. Robert Oppenheimer, a leading physicist in the Manhattan Project, recognized that scientific inquiry and discovery could no longer be separated from their effect on political decision-making, social responsibility, and human endeavor in general. He openly addressed issues of common concern and as a scientist accepted the responsibility brought about by nuclear physics.
This collection of essays and speeches, only a few of which have been previously published, presents an extraordinary thinker and scientist as well as a compassionate human being. No issue is too small or too large if it is in some way connected to the emergence of a weapon as terrible and powerful as the atom bomb. Oppenheimer discusses the shift in scientific awareness and its impact on education, the question of openness in a society forced to keep secrets, the conflict between individual concerns and public and political necessity, the future of science and its effects on future politics---in short, the common and uncommon sense we find in our modern day reality.
Uncommon Sense presents a responsible scientist and a concerned man who foresaw the problems the discovery of fission would create. And we should no neglect to read between the lines: The peak of Oppenheimer's career coincided with the McCarthy era, the repercussions of which strongly affected his personal and professional life. The themes of openness and freedom becomes, therefore, recurring concerns in this collection of essays and speeches.

"The slums of Victorian London have provided the setting for countless tales of murder, intrigue, and dissipation, an urban landscape where Sherlock Holmes and mythologies of Jack the Ripper have had a field day. Donald Lewis' compelling book documents a person who, through desperately difficult work, sought not sensationalism but salvation. Joseph Oppenheimer, a converted German Jew, left a diary from his work with the London City Mission that is here quoted at illuminating length and also used for an informative account of Christian outreach to London's poor in the years shortly before William Booth's more famous mission launched the Salvation Army. Expert use of the diary and expert provision of historical context makes this a testimony to persistent Christian dedication and also the transforming power of the Gospel. Oppenheimer himself grew discouraged about the lack of results from his patient visiting, counseling, and witnessing, but from his historical distance what he accomplished shines like a beacon of hope." --Mark Noll, Francis A. McAnaney Professor of History (Emeritus), University of Notre Dame
"Donald Lewis, the scholar who knows more than anybody else about the London City Mission in the nineteenth century, has edited a journal kept by one of its agents, a German-Jewish convert named Joseph Oppenheimer, during 1861-1862. The full transcription records Oppenheimer's ministry among the very poor of the British capital, and eight chapters analyze aspects of his efforts in pioneer evangelism. Here is a source that vividly illuminates the work of Victorian Evangelicals in the growing cities of the age." --Professor David W. Bebbington, University of Stirling, Scotland
"I love the fact that Joseph Opennheimer's diary has not till now] seen the light of day and that it now comes with a commentary. This really opens it up to use by undergraduates." --Professor David Green, Department of Geography, King's College, London
