350 Jahre nach der Verurteilung Galileis deckt ein, in den Archiven der Inquisition gefundenes, Geheimdokument die Hintergründe des Falles Galilei auf

The present volume is a collection of reviews, essays and personal reminiscences on Occhialini's scientific life and work. Through these recollections the reader will also gain a vivid impression of the pioneering days of elementary particle physics when new detection methods emerged, like the triggered cloud chamber and nuclear emulsions - two techniques perfected by Occhialini - which made progress on comic ray physics possible in the first place.
