Alfred Schild (1921-1977) was a mathematical physicist specializing in relativity and gravitation at the Carnegie Institute of Technology (1946-1957) and the University of Texas at Austin (1957-1977). His work concentrated on foundations of relativity, quantization, algebraically special solutions, and conformal techniques. His later research dealt particularly with Fokker action principles and string models of particles. From the description of Schild, Alfred, papers, 1915-1982. (Un...

UT Texas Symposium on Relativistic Astrophysics

http://n2t.net/ark:/99166/w6qs14wz (corporateBody)

The Texas Symposium on Relativistic Astrophysics is a biennial symposium focusing on the latest observations and developments in astronomy and physics, specifically relating to relativistic astrophysics. Alfred Schild and Ivor Robinson co-founded the symposium, a collaboration between the University of Texas at Austin and the University of Texas at Dallas, in 1962. The first four meetings were held at either Austin or Dallas, but the international appeal of the symposium led to conv...
