This paper presents a profile of Ludwik Hirszfeld (1874-1954) as an educator of medical personnel. Hirszfeld was an eminent immunologist, bacteriologist and seroanthropologist; the originator of the Polish school of immunology; a professor at Warsaw University, Maria Sklodowska-Curie University in Lublin and the University and Technical University in Wroclaw; and the founder of the Institute of...

Marie Curie gave outstanding contributions to science and society that were recognized still in her lifetime. In particular, the discovery of radium completely changed the therapeutic methods for treatment of cancer and other diseases, and allowed the development of radiotherapy and nuclear medicine. Radium was also used in many non-medical applications. Radium applications fostered the growth ...

We consider stochastic dynamics for a spin system with mean field interaction, in which the interaction potential is subject to noisy and dissipative stochastic evolution. We show that, in the thermodynamic limit and at sufficiently low temperature, the magnetization of the system has a time periodic behavior, despite of the fact that no periodic force is applied.

The effective exchange interactions of magnetic overlayers Fe/Cu(001) and Co/Cu(001) covered by a Cu-cap layer of varying thickness were calculated in real space from first principles. The effective two-dimensional Heisenberg Hamiltonian was constructed and used to estimate magnon dispersion laws, spin-wave stiffness constants, and overlayer Curie temperatures within the mean-field and random-p...

The temperature dependence of the electronic and atomic structure of the colossal magnetoresistive oxides La1-xSrxMnO3 (x=0.3, 0.4) has been studied using core and valence level photoemission, x-ray absorption and emission, and extended x-ray absorption fine structure spectroscopy. A dramatic and reversible change of the electronic structure is observed on crossing the Curie temperature, includ...
