Dne 17. prosince 2009 se pod záštitou děkana Matematicko-fyzikální fakulty Univerzity Karlovy konalo v Praze-Troji jednodenní sympozium k uctění památky prof. RNDr. Václava Votruby, Dr.Sc. (19. 12. 1909 - 11. 9. 1990). Pořadateli byly vedle uvedené Matematicko-fyzikální fakulty UK ještě Fakulta jaderná a fyzikálně inženýrská ČVUT, Ústav jaderné fyziky, Fyzikální ústav Akademie věd ČR a Česká fyzikální společnost., Jan Fischer., and Obsahuje bibliografii
The remarkable progress in laser technology leads also to a development of techniques of time-resolved optical spectroscopy. The ultrafast laser spectroscopy in the visible spectral region can be now used for investigation of rapid processes with the time resolution of about 10 fs. This paper reviews the experimental background and typical techniques of ultrafast laser spectroscopy. The potentional of ultrafast spectrocopy is illustrated with the results obtained by authors in the field of ultrafast relaxation processes in semiconductors and semiconductor nanostructures., Petr Malý, Petr Němec, František Trojánek., and Obsahuje bibliografii
Ernst Mach was already an internationally recognised experimental physicist, when he, after professorships for Mathematics and Physics in Graz and Experimental Physics in Prague, took over the chair for "Philosophy, particularly for the History and Theory of the Inductive Sciences", at the University of Vienna in 1895. This turn from natural sciences to philosophy was really an exception in the academic field. Although he was not a specialist in philosophy his ideas exhibited a remarkable influence. Here is the first part of the author's text, the second, closing part (Mach and Philosophy) will be published in the next issue of this Journal., Friedrich Stadler ; z angličtiny a němčiny přeložil M. Černohorský., and Obsahuje bibliografii
