2: Bille C. Carlson
Carlson, in 1981, and is survived by his companion, Jody Stadler, two children, Marian Carlson and John Carlson, and four grandchildren. … After the war he returned to Harvard and completed Bachelor’s and Master’s degrees in physics and mathematics. He then went to Oxford as a Rhodes Scholar and completed a doctoral degree in physics. After four years in the Physics Department at Princeton, he went to the Ames Laboratory and Iowa State University in 1954, where he was a Professor in the Physics and Mathematics Departments. … This invariance usually replaces sets of twelve equations by sets of three equations and applies also to the relation between the first symmetric elliptic integral and the Jacobian functions. …

The periodicity and symmetry of the pendulum imply that the motion in each four intervals θ ( 0 , ± α ) and θ ( ± α , 0 ) have the same “quarter periods” K = K ( sin ( 1 2 α ) ) . … For β real and positive, three of the four possible combinations of signs give rise to bounded oscillatory motions. …The subsequent position as a function of time, x ( t ) , for the three cases is given with results expressed in terms of a and the dimensionless parameter η = 1 2 β a 2 . … Two types of oscillatory motion are possible. … Hyperelliptic functions u ( z ) are solutions of the equation z = 0 u ( f ( x ) ) - 1 / 2 d x , where f ( x ) is a polynomial of degree higher than 4. …
