Bogdan Castle Maglich (also spelled Maglic or Maglić) (born August 5, 1928 in Sombor, Yugoslavia) is an experimental nuclear physicist and the leading advocate of a purported non-radioactive aneutronic fusion energy source. Maglich built 4 models of ''Migma'', devices producing fusion of deuterium atoms in colliding ion beams. == Education and academic work == Maglich received his Bachelor of Science degree from the University of Belgrade in 1951, his Master of Science degree from the University of Liverpool in 1955, and his Ph.D. in high-energy physics and nuclear engineering from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in 1959. Upon receiving his Ph.D., Maglich joined Dr. Louis Alvarez's research group at Lawrence Berkeley Lab. During this time, he, along with Fred Kirsten, invented the "sonic spark chamber", the first film-less spark chamber particle detector system.〔B. Maglic and F. Kirsten, ''Nucl. Instr. Methods'' 17, 49 (1962).〕 Maglich participated in the discovery of the omega meson, as described in Alvarez's Nobel Lecture: " ''Although Bogdan Maglic originated the plan for this search, and pushed through the measurements by himself, he graciously insisted that the paper announcing the discovery should be co-authored by three of us who has developed the chamber, the beam, and the analysis program that made it possible.'' " Between 1963 and 1967, he worked at the European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN) in Geneva, Switzerland. While conducting research at CERN, he invented the "missing mass spectrometer".〔B. Maglic, G. Gosta, A method for the search for unstable particles using Jacobian peaks in angular distribution, ''Physics Letters'', Volume 18, Issue 2, 15 August 1965, Pages 185-189.〕 With this instrument, his team of French and Swiss physicists reported the discovery of seven mesons. In 1967, Maglich joined the faculty of the University of Pennsylvania, as well as being visiting faculty at Princeton University. In 1969, he became Professor and Principal Investigator for High Energy Physics at Rutgers University. In 1974, he left academia to pursue his research in the private sector. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Bogdan Maglich」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
