	Willis Lamb
		In 1955 Lamb won the Nobel Prize for physics "for discoveries concerning the fine structure of the hydrogen spectrum" that led to refinements of the quantum theories of electromagnetic phenomena.
		Lamb received his B.S. in Chemistry in 1934 at the University of California at Berkeley then went on to earn a PhD in physics in 1938, having carried out his doctoral research (on the electromagnetic properties of nuclear systems) under the direction of Robert Oppenheimer.
		Lamb spent the next twelve years teaching physics at Yale, and then, in 1974 he accepted a position as professor of physics and optical sciences at the University of Arizona.

		Lamb joined the faculty of Columbia University in 1938 and worked in the radiation laboratory there during World War II.
		Though the quantum mechanics of Paul A.M. Dirac had predicted the hyperfine structure of the lines that appear in the spectrum (dispersed light, as by a prism), Lamb applied new methods to measure the lines and in 1947 found their positions to be slightly different from what had been predicted.
		While a professor of physics at Stanford University, California, (1951-56), Lamb devised microwave techniques for examining the hyperfine structure of the spectral lines of helium.

		Apart from this, the patent describes the technique’s modifications in which one and the same acoustical-electrical transducer or self-contained acoustical-electrical transducers is/are used for generating ultrasonic oscillation pulses and recording ultrasonic oscillations reflected by the defect.

Lamb, Jr., provides all students of quantum mechanics, physicists, philosophers and historians of sciences, new insights in the understanding of quantum mechanics by one of the greatest physicists of the twentieth century, and the editorial annotation offers a fascinating portrait of the life and science of a great man.
		Lamb has taught physics throughout his entire career: at Columbia University; Stanford University; Harvard University; Oxford University; Yale University; and the University of Arizona.
		Lamb's contributions to physics are highly honored and justly celebrated: it was his measurement of the Lamb shift that led to the renormalized quantum electrodynamical theories of Schwinger, Feynman, Tomonaga, and Dyson.

		The hydrogen atom was thought to exist in either of two distinct states carrying equal energies.
		More sophisticated measurements by Lamb in 1947 demonstrated that the two energy levels were not equal.
		This discrepancy, since known as the Lamb shift, won him the 1955 Nobel Prize for Physics.

	Essay #391 for Kalvos & Damian's New Music Bazaar
		As Head of Kitchens, it was Beano's responsibility to turn the prefect's ideas into toothsome repasts, but lately, his ideas hinted that he had eaten too well of last month's Amanita au Vin.
		Which was the context in which Beano suddenly was aware of the unexplained absence of the dinner speaker, the 1955 Nobel Prize winner for physics, Willis Eugene Lamb, Jr.
		The chill returned and congealed over the 8th through 13th vertebrae of his spine as he imagined that another scientist would have to take up the cause of researching magnetron oscillators and microwave spectroscopy--someone with a less succulent brain.
