A world-leading authority in quantum chemistry and physics, Massey Universitys Distinguished Professor Peter Schwerdtfeger is this years winner of New Zealands most prestigious science award, the $100,000 Rutherford Medal. Professor Schwerdtfeger, originally from Germany, has been based at the Universitys Albany campus since 2003. He is the seventh Massey scholar to be selected by the Royal Society of New Zealand to receive the award in the past 10 years. "Distinguished Professor Peter Schwerdtfeger is one of New Zealands most brilliant and internationally sought-after scientists," the Rutherford Medal selection panel says. "His research has provided a deep insight into how atoms and molecules interact at the quantum level." Professor Schwerdtfeger works on fundamental aspects of chemical and physical phenomena in atoms, molecules and condensed matter. His approach to science is truly interdisciplinary, ranging from chemistry to physics, computer science and mathematics. He says he is honoured to receive the Rutherford Medal. "Rutherford, for me, is one of the giants in science. Hes in the same category as Einstein, Dirac, Schrdinger, and Heisenberg. When I went through school and university, the name Rutherford was everywhere. Theres the Rutherford atomic model, and theres Rutherford scattering - and of course he was the first … Continue reading →

With only five weeks left in the 2014 season, the Minnesota Vikings passing attack is running out of time to find its footing. The biggest problem came to a head on Sunday against the Green Bay Packers. Chemistry between Teddy Bridgewater and the receiving corps is not where it needs to be. Bridgewater and his receivers had a mildly productive day against Green Bay, getting over the 200-yard mark through the air and capping two drives with touchdown passes. Glaring problems popped up, though. The rookie passer threw with as little accuracy as he has all season. To make matters worse, his group of receivers did little to make any more out of the situation with numerous passes bouncing off the fingers of his intended targets. Bridgewater completed only 21 of 37 pass attempts, his lowest percentage of the season. The routine often looked difficult, and the difficult often looked impossible. A clear disconnect between him and his receivers on a number of occasions was the primary culprit. Pass-catchers didnt do enough to pick up their quarterback on a down day either. Charles Johnson, who reeled in only three of his 11 targets, admitted as much after the game, as … Continue reading →
