	Lindblad, Bertil (1895-1965)
		Having considered Jacobus Kapteyn’s work on moving stellar streams and Howard Shapley’s proposal that the center of the Milky Way Galaxy lay tens of thousands of light-years away, he put forward the differential rotation theory – namely, that the speed of rotation of stars about the galactic center depends on their distance.
		Soon after, in 1927, Jan Oort’s observations of stellar motion provided support for Lindblad’s views, which inspired a number of Swedish astronomers, including Lindblad’s son, Per Olaf (1927-), to specialize in the movements of stars.
		Lindblad also helped demonstrate the spiral nature of the Galaxy and, in the 1940s, put forward the density wave theory to explain spiral structure.

	HEALTH: UN Plans to Hold Special Session on HIV/AIDS
		Bertil Lindblad, Senior Liaison Officer of UNAIDS, said the need for the special session arose ''because the AIDS epidemic has taken on such a magnitude in that it has become a global development crisis today with over 36 million people world-wide living with HIV''.
		Lindblad explained that the aim of the session is to ''secure political and social commitments to fight the epidemic and also to expand and intensify international co-operation''.
		Lindblad admitted that one of the major difficulties present in the fight against AIDS is the lack of funds.

		He went on to stipulate that the speed of rotation of the stars in the Galaxy was a function of their distance from the centre (the 'differential rotation theory').
		Lindblad was born in Örebro and studied at Uppsala.
		Lindblad suggested that the two streams of stars Kapteyn had observed could in fact represent the rotation of all the stars in our Galaxy in the same direction, around a distant centre; he thus confirmed Shapley's hypothesis.

	ESA - Space Science - 26 November
		1895: On 26 November 1895, Bertil Lindblad was born.
		Lindblad was a Swedish astronomer who contributed greatly to the theory of galactic structure and motion and to the methods of determining the absolute magnitude (true brightness, disregarding distance) of distant stars.
		He theorised that the areas around the centre of a galaxy revolve and this is why it was flattened.

		Lindblad characterized the Declaration as being strong and action-oriented, and he said that the Declaration calls for resources commensurate with the epidemic.
		Lindblad said that the Declaration of Commitment is unique in that it recognizes the driving forces of the epidemic and sets new targets.
		Lindblad suggested that the Council go through the Declaration at its next meeting and place it in the context of global and domestic issues.

	Astronomy in Sweden 1860-1940
		Bertil Lindblad became leader of the Stockholm Observatory after Karl Bohlin retired in 1927, and some years later, in 1931, the new Stockholm Observatory was inaugurated in Saltsjöbaden, outside the city.
		Lindblad was mostly interested in theoretical astronomy, working on the way stars move in the galaxies, but the observatory he headed was far better equipped than any of the other Swedish observatories.
		The changing status of Swedish astronomy evident in the construction of the Saltsjöbaden Observatory is also evident in the fact that the 1938 General Assembly of the International Astronomical Union was held in Stockholm, indicating the respect that Swedish astronomy was accorded in the international astronomical world.

	The Origins of Spiral Arms
		Among the original pioneers of the field was Bertil Lindblad who worked on spiral structure steadily from 1927 through 1965 (Binney and Tremaine 94, hereafter BT94).
		Lindblad realized that the naive idea of stars arranged permanently in spirals was untenable due to the winding problem.
		The Outer Lindblad Resonance (OLR) is similar except that particles are moving relatively retrograde from the rotating bar.

		In order to celebrate these events a Nobel Symposium (No. 98) was held from November 30 to December 3, 1995 in Saltsjöbaden, Sweden, near Stockholm Observatory where Bertil Lindblad was active as Director during most of his scientific life.
		The symposium banquet was held at the Stockholm Observatory, following aperitifs at the Observatory residence of Gunilla and Per Olof Lindblad (also formerly the residence of Bertil Lindblad).

	Plaskett, John Stanley (1865-1941)
		In 1922, Plaskett identified an extremely massive star as a binary, now known as Plaskett’s Star.
		In 1927 he provided confirmatory evidence for the theory of galactic rotation put forward by Bertil Lindblad and Jan Oort.
		By 1928 Plaskett, in collaboration with Joseph Pearce, had obtained evidence for the hypothesis formulated by Arthur Eddington in 1926 that interstellar matter was widely distributed throughout the Galaxy; their disocvery that interstellar absorption lines, mainly of calcium, took part in the galactic rotation, showed that interstellar matter was not confined to separate star clusters.

		The meeting is the country's most serious high-level discussion on the epidemic to date, he said, adding that he hopes it will inspire significant action on the part of Russia's leadership.

		Although the Russian epidemic began primarily among injecting drug users, Lindblad said the virus is now spreading to women.

		In 1904, Kapteyn found that stars did not move at random but in two streams flowing in opposite directions along the Milky Way, one converging in the constellation of Orion and the other converging 180 deg away, in Scutum.
		The Swedish astronomer Bertil Lindblad showed that this streaming motion is simply the result of the rotation of the Galaxy.
		Stars traveling in nearly circular orbits around the galactic center with the Sun will have larger motions relative to the Sun either toward or away from the center--depending on whether they are approaching the nearest or farthest points in their elliptical orbits--than in the direction of motion.

	Top UN official "concerned" over rise of global HIV epidemic - Irna
		"The HIV epidemic is growing in all areas and this is a cause for real concern," said the deputy director of the UNAIDS New York office, Bertil Lindblad during a news conference in Berlin.
		He added there had also been a "considerable increase" in the number of HIV cases in Central Asia and Eastern Europe, as the total number rose by 50 percent since 2004 to reach 1.7 million people.
		Lindblad referred to positive cases in the fight against HIV-AIDS in countries like Kenya, Zimbabwe and parts of Burkina Faso.

		From 1945 to 1970 he served as full professor and director of the observatory.
		Oort early became interested in the discovery that stars in our Galaxy seem to move in two crossing "streams." Through complex calculations he accounted for this movement by confirming the theory--put forth by Swedish astronomer Bertil Lindblad--that the Galaxy rotates.
		He later calculated the total mass of the Galaxy, work that led to recognition of the problem of "missing mass" in the universe.

		Advocacy groups and experts also noted when Putin said that the number of people with HIV/AIDS was "considerably higher" than the 342,000 officially registered number of Russian cases, and he urged improved surveillance.
		After that meeting, "we knew there would be a spine to an actual political process" for handling AIDS, said Bertil Lindblad, UNAIDS representative for Russia.
		Experts note that Russia, China, and India all need less help from the G-8 than that promised at the summit in Gleneagles, Scotland, where funding to fight the HIV/AIDS epidemic, mostly in Africa, was a major topic.

	Jacobus Kapteyn Summary
		In 1904, studying the proper motions of stars, Kapteyn reported that these were not random, as it was believed in that time; stars could be divided into two streams, moving in nearly opposite directions.
		It was later realized that Kapteyn's data had been the first evidence of the rotation of our Galaxy, which ultimately led to the finding of galactic rotation by Bertil Lindblad and Jan Oort.
		In 1906, Kapteyn launched a plan for a major study of the distribution of stars in the Galaxy, using counts of stars in different directions.
