  Martin Perl - The Third Quark-Lepton Family - Tau Lepton
Martin L. Perl shared the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1995 for his work in the discovery of the third family of elementary particles.
Martin Perl was born in 1927 in Brooklyn, NY.
Perl equates his love of all things mechanical with his extreme enjoyment of playing with a cousin's Erector set as a child.

 Martin Perl and the Tau Lepton
‘Martin L. Perl, a professor at the Stanford Linear Accelerator Center (SLAC), [was] awarded the 1995 Nobel Prize in physics...
After more than a year of analysis, Perl was able to convince the rest of his research team that they were in fact observing a new and different type of elementary particle, which he named the 'tau'.
Perl compares the discovery of the tau with the discovery of the other leptons: electron, muon, electron neutrino, and muon neutrino.

The tau, which he found in the mid-1970s, was the first evidence of a third "generation" of fundamental particles, the existence of which proved essential for completing the so-called standard model of particle physics.
Perl was jointly awarded the Nobel Prize with physicist Frederick Reines, who discovered another subatomic particle, the neutrino, in the 1950s.
In 1966 Perl was part of a research team that made an unsuccessful attempt to discover new charged leptons by colliding electrons at the Stanford Linear Accelerator Center (SLAC).

Perl, a professor at the Stanford Linear Accelerator Center at Stanford University, Stanford, Calif., surprised the physics world in 1975 with his discovery of a new elementary particle known as the tau lepton.

Perl, recipient in 1995 of the Nobel Prize in Physics for pioneering experimental contributions to lepton physics, is the third Nobel Laureate to be named to the Network Physics Advisory Board, joining Dr. Murray Gell-Mann and Dr. Ilya Prigogine, who became members last year.
Dr. Perl's 1975 discovery of a new elementary particle known as the tau lepton, a super-heavy cousin of the electron, not only gained him the Nobel Prize, but also the Wolf Prize in 1982.
Perl is the author of numerous scientific articles and research studies published worldwide, and is a member of the National Academy of Sciences and a Fellow of the

Perl led the team of scientists that found the tau lepton in electron-positron collisions in 1975.
In his experiment at the SPEAR collider at SLAC, high energy electrons and positrons were smashed together head on; among the particles created out of the energy of collision were pairs of new particles, later identified as the tau and antitau, each with a mass of about 1.8 GeV.
In the early 1950s Reines and Cowan successfully sought evidence for the neutrino in an experiment, at a reactor at Savannah River, SC, in which a neutrino interacted with a proton to create a neutron plus a positron.

Their educations ended with high school - my father going to work as a clerk and then salesman in a company dealing in printing and stationary, and my mother working as a secretary and then bookkeeper in a firm of wool merchants.
By the time my sister, Lila Perl, and I were born in the 1920's, my father had established a printing and advertising company called Allied Printing.
One day he said to me "Martin, what you are interested in is called physics not chemistry!" At the age of 23, I finally decided to begin the study of physics.

 Nobel Laueate Visits Albany   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-25)
Martin Perl looks back on his first forty years of research in experimental physics as a craft and as an art.
Using as a background his discovery in the 1970s of the tau lepton, the discovery that led to finding the third generation of elementary particles, he reflects on aspects of science that are often omitted from the sociological, historical discussions of scientific research.
Some of the special pleasures we find in the this experimental work comes from having become involved in research areas that lie far from elementary particle physics; such as colloid and suspensoid chemistry, fluid mechanics, mineralogy and machine vision.

 First Evidence of a Third Family of Fundamental Particles
For this discovery, Martin L. Perl won the 1995 Nobel Prize in Physics, sharing the honor with Frederick Reines (the discoverer, much earlier while at Los Alamos National Laboratory, of a particle in the first family).
Perl's early experiments failed, until a new particle collider gave him access to a previously inaccessible region of energy, about 5 billion electron volts.
In addition, although basic research is by definition a search for new knowledge without regard to its practical implications, such work often contributes to technologies with commercial value; examples include computers, lasers, and cancer treatments.

With methods 2 and 3, Perl starts parsing the input file from the beginning, unless you've specified a -x switch, in which case it scans for the first line starting with #!
If -e is given, Perl will not look for a script filename in the argument list.
After Perl locates the script, it parses the lines and ignores them because the variable $running_under_some_shell is never true.

 Optimize Perl
(Martin C. Brown) Perl is an incredibly flexible language, but its ease of use can lead to some sloppy and lazy programming habits.
We're all guilty of them, but there are some quick steps you can take to improve the performance of your Perl applications.
In this article, I'll look at the key areas of optimization, which solutions work and which don't, and how to continue to build and extend your applications with optimization and speed in mind.

The author is a strong advocate of script, as opposed to C++ or Java, on the grounds of speed of development, ease of use and cross-platform support.
To make sense of the book, readers need to be already familiar with the script language of their choice, and to a lesser extent with XML itself.
Even so, it is interesting to compare the differences between the various approaches, particularly between Perl and Python, which are the author's main area of expertise.
