Hi Readers ! I am extremely busy here getting settled in a new place. Somehow I am taking out time to update my Blog. I am not getting time to attend my mail. Sorry to those who are not receiving reply from me. I will reply as soon as I get time. So please wait.Today's Post is related with Physics.Hungary issued a postage stamp on 3 November 2008 to commemorate the centenary of the birth of great American Physicist, Ede Teller who was of Hungarian origin.He was born in Budapest on 15 Jan 1908. Ede Teller studied at the Technical University in Budapest and then in Germany, obtaining his PhD in physics in 1930. He obtained a post as a researcher in Göttingen, then joined the researchers around Heisenberg, Bohr and Einstein. After Hitler came to power he went to Denmark and then moved to the United States, later becoming an American citizen. In 1941 he became involved in the Manhattan plan, and took part in making the first atom bomb in Los Alamos, led by Oppenheimer. As early as 1940 Teller speculated whether the heat produced by a fission bomb could set off a larger thermonuclear reaction, the hydrogen bomb. When the Soviet Union exploded its first atom bomb, President Truman ordered the fusion weapon to be developed and in 1952 the first American hydrogen bomb was tested. The Hungarian Academy of Sciences elected Teller an honorary member in 1990. The stamp design shows a portrait of Ede Teller with a sketch diagram of a fusion nuclear reaction in front of experimental equipment in the background.The FDC design which has not been shown here depicts the entrance of the school in Trefort Street in Budapest, where the physician studied between 1917-25. The postmark shows the stylized drawing of nuclear fission. The design will be very much appreciated by those who are associated with the subject of Physics as well the collectors collecting on Science theme and of course by those who studied Physics during their college days. The stamp design showing the nuclear fission is magnificent. In our regular series some nice FDCs of se-tenant stamps from the collection of Mr. Shrikant Parikh. This is all for today ....Till next Post.... Have a Great Time !.......
