Too technical

Found this article too technical! I am looking for information on his 'bootstrap' theory as an example of holism in physics. --84.92.127.242 23:10, 23 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Try this one http://paginas.terra.com.br/educacao/jtesheiner/etcetera/davidbohmandgeoffreychew.htm "David Bohm (the undivided wholeness) and Geoffrey Chew (the bootstrap approach): Challenges to the standard model" --GangofOne 07:29, 8 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Geoffrey Chew → Geoffrey Chew (physicist) — To distinguish from Geoffrey Chew (musicologist). 123908a (talk) 11:25, 1 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose. For only two possible topics a hatnote is usually sufficient, which I've just added to this article. Note the brand new Geoffrey Chew (musicologist) article has notability and COI tags. If it remains and becomes as or more searched for than this article in the future, a move should be considered then, but as of now this is the primary topic. Station1 (talk) 22:50, 1 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose. Per Station1.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 02:08, 2 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose per Station1, unnecessary move. – ukexpat (talk) 04:32, 3 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose per arguments above. — AjaxSmack 16:23, 6 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

semiclassical limit

What is this semiclassical limit chew talks of? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 174.252.48.127 (talk) 02:03, 8 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Hughes prize lacks reference

I did a quick search and I could not find any reference to a "Hughes Prize of the American Physics Society". The professional organization of physicists is called American PHYSICAL Society. There appears to be a Hughes Medal but it is given by the Royal Society.

The mention of Chew's prize comes with no reference, although it follows the wording on his official faculty page at UC Berkeley, which may also be wrong. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.57.150.61 (talk) 10:44, 25 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Looks like at least at one time the American Physical Society Prize was sponsored by Hughes Aircraft. Perhaps that's the source of the confusion. --Loren Rosen (talk) 20:11, 12 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
