http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/80779497

This interview is part of a small program to document the recent history of American Astronomical Society. These interviews were used as background studies to help authors of chapters for the centennial history volume of the Society research and organize documentary materials. The volume was published in 1999. Prominently mentioned are John Bahcall, Chandrasekhar, Ray Davis, John Learned, Alfred Mann, Marcel Schein, CERN, Institute for Cosmic Ray Research, University of Rochester, University of Tokyo,

John Norris Bahcall was a world renowned astrophysicist who served on the faculty of the Institute for Advanced Study from 1971 to 2005. Bahcall's pioneering work on solar neutrinos and the establishment of the Standard Solar Model was crucial to the understanding of the sun. His theoretical predictions, combined with experimental solar neutrino work proved how the sun shines, and resulted in the unexpected discovery that neutrinos have mass, thus requiring new physics. He was a leading force in...
