Got this from an MIT site. Professor Kendall and Institute Professor Jerome I. Friedman shared the 1990 Nobel Prize with Stanford's Richard E. Taylor. The award cited research they did from 1967 to 1973 at the Stanford Linear Accelerator which revolutionized particle physics by providing the first experimental evidence for subnuclear particles called quarks. Professor Kendall, a member of the faculty since 1961, received the BA degree in mathematics from Amherst College (1950) and the PhD in nuclear and atomic physics from MIT (1954). Before joining the MIT faculty, he taught at Stanford's Department of Physics for five years. He is a founding member of the Union for Concerned Scientists, formed in 1969, and has been its chairman since 1973, leading the organization's efforts in assessing and developing means to control the adverse effects of advanced technologies. -- Jeff Bentley jeffbentley@mi*.co* http://www.mindspring.com/~jeffbentley
