****************************************
Happy World Year of Physics 2005! Many exciting things are happening
during 2005. Check our website for the latest details regarding our
projects. http://www.physics2005.org
You're receiving this message because you signed up to be on the list
at our website or at an APS, AAPT or other scientific meeting. This
newsletter, containing information about the World Year of Physics 2005, is
distributed approximately every six weeks.
1. Physics Enlightens the World---Last Chance to Participate!!
In the World Year of Physics 2005 as many people as possible should get
the feeling to be part of a great physics community spanning the whole
globe. 揚hysics enlightens the world?is an endeavour to achieve just
that: A world-wide relay of light to commemorate the 50th anniversary of
Albert Einstein抯 death on next Monday, April 18, 2005. For more
information, click on: http://www.physics2005.org/events/projects.html
2. Einstein@Home makes it onto 100,000 PCs
Einstein@Home--our distributed computing project to search for
gravitational waves--was officially launched on February 18. We have 72,337
registered users so far who have volunteered time on a total of more than
100,000 computers. Participants currently represent over 140 countries.
The raw computational capacity of the participants' CPUs is over 85
TeraFlops (floating point operations per second), which exceeds the
capacity of IBM's Blue Gene L (70.72 Tflops), the record holding,
stand-alone supercomputer. Join in the search for gravitational waves today! Sign
up at: http://www.einsteinathome.org
3. Searching for the next generation of physics talent
The World Year of Physics 2005 Physics Talent Search project is now
beginning in earnest. Both students and evaluators are urged to
participate (evaluators must be members of APS or AAPT). Students' results are
due by July 31, 2005. All awards and recognitions will be completed by
the US Organizing Committee no later than 15 September 2005. Sign up
today at: http://www.usphysicstalentsearch.org
