lxxviii Annual Report of the Delegacy Ph Jacobson 'Infrared studies on the intrinsic and impurity spectra of ionic crystals Ph Stephenson 'Some problems in lattice statistics Departmental Notes The department is indebted to several outside bodies for grants which enable many branches of research to be carried on Army contracts are held by the theoretical and the spectroscopy groups The latter also receives support from the Institute of Petroleum and Imperial Chemical Industries Professor Champion's group receives support from the Diamond Corporation and also has contract with AERE for special studies and for the payment of the salaries of two senior research workers Dr Lee and Dr Glass Dr Burge has grant from NIRNS which allows him to carry out his high energy project Dr Chapman has special grant from the Science Research Council which supports his collaboration in the research programme of the IQSY number of grants for major items of equipment have been made to other groups also by the SRC Mr Chomet and Dr Giles received grant from the Central Research Fund for their work in molecular beam scattering The fundamental researches of Dr Μ Fisher in the many body field have been recognised by his appointment to professorship Dr Danielian returned from year at the University of Toronto where he was visiting assistant professor Professor Baker Jnr of the University of California Los Alamos spent the year with the theoretical group Dr Westerlung of Kiruna Geophysical Observatory was with the Radiophysics group for short while The computer link with Atlas was installed and widely and effectively used by all departments large area of the quadrangle Physics laboratories had to be recon- structed to house the workshop the site of which was required in the building of Stage of the Strand Block of the new College building Research The spectroscopy group under Professor Price successfully developed special techniques of photo-ionization which opened up new field in the study of molecular electronic structure The infra-red interferometer and the photoelectric Raman spectro- meter have been brought into full operation The use of these instru- ments with the enlarged computing facilities of Atlas have permitted
