Historical column

摘要

With the Radio Science Bulletin Editor, W. Ross Stone, we thought about adding some sort of periodic Historical Column to the Bulletin. This seemed appropriate, given the general interest in the history of science in general, and in radio waves in particular, that has arisen in the community. The idea is once a year or so to collect some papers dedicated to the history of a given topic, possibly focusing on its different aspects. These collections will take the form of “special sections” of the Bulletin, a sort of “monograph” with an in-depth focus on given aspects.
