Summary: |
The Scientific Highlights in Memory of L on Van Hove meeting brought together many distinguished scientists and several top officials of the European Community in honor of L on Van Hove, an outstanding European scientist who contributed immensely to the research and development of mathematical and theoretical physics. One of the most influential physicists of the post-war period, L on Van Hove inspired new research and work from statistical mechanics to field theory and multiparticle production. The papers in this volume recollect L on Van Hove's early days as a scientist and recount his eff |
