Richard Klein (astronomer)
Richard Klein is an adjunct professor of Astronomy at the University of California, Berkeley and a Scientific Staff Member at the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL). Klein received his bachelor's degree in physics from Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute in 1966 and his PhD in physics from Brandeis University in 1973. Klein has pioneered methods of radiative transfer and adaptive mesh refinement applied to computational astrophysics over the last several decades. He played a central role in the development of the radiation-driven implosion model for induced star formation and in developing the leading theory of stellar winds for "hot stars". He has pursued a broad range of problems ranging from star formation to high energy physics, including the interactions of supernovae shocks with interstellar clouds, the formation of low and high mass stars, accretion onto neutron stars, and Compton-heated winds from accretion disks. He established the Berkeley Astrophysical Fluid Dyn ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Richard Klein (artist)
Richard Klein (January 7, 1890 – July 31, 1967) was a German artist, known for his work as a medallist from the start of World War I in 1914, and mainly for his work as a favoured artist of the Nazi regime. Klein was director of the Munich School of Applied Arts and was one of Adolf Hitler's favourite painters. Klein was one of the artists exhibited at the ''Große Deutsche Kunstausstellung'' (Great German Art Exhibition) held at the Haus der Kunst in Munich in 1937, meant as a contrast to the modern art condemned by the Third Reich as degenerate art (''entartete Kunst''). Klein's work at the exhibition included plaques contributed from Hitler's private collection. The poster for the exhibition, ''Das Erwachen'' (The Awakening), was designed by Klein and also used as the front cover for the Nazi art periodical '' Die Kunst im Deutschen Reich'' (Art in the Third Reich). Klein also designed Nazi awards and decorations. These included, the Sudetenland Medal, Anschluss Medal, and M ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Richard Klein (paleoanthropologist)
Richard G. Klein (born April 11, 1941) is a professor of Biology and Anthropology at Stanford University. He is the Anne T. and Robert M. Bass Professor in the School of Humanities and Sciences. He earned his PhD at the University of Chicago in 1966, and was elected to the National Academy of Sciences in April 2003. His research interests include paleoanthropology, Africa and Europe. His primary thesis is that modern humans evolved in East Africa, perhaps 100,000 years ago and, starting 50,000 years ago, began spreading throughout the non-African world, replacing archaic human populations over time. He is a critic of the idea that behavioral modernity arose gradually over the course of tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands of years or millions of years, instead supporting the view that modern behavior arose suddenly in the transition from the Middle Stone Age to the Later Stone Age around 50–40,000 years ago. Early life and education Klein was born in 1941 in Chicago, and w ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
