In 1934 Enrico Fermi accepted an invitation to deliver lectures in Argentina, Brazil and Uruguay. He arrived in Buenos Aires on July 30, lectured in Buenos Aires, Cordoba, La Plata and Montevideo, and then moved on August 18 to Sao Paulo via Santos and Rio de Janeiro; he traveled back from Rio to Naples on September 1st. His visit had a large resonance, and halls were crowded despite the fact that he lectured in Italian. The University of Buenos Aires recorded his five lectures and transcribed them in Spanish. They contain the first public presentations of the theory of beta decay and of the works on artificial radioactivity started by the via Panisperna group, but are not included in Fermis Collected Works edited by the Accademia dei Lincei in Rome and by the University of Chicago, although listed in the Bibliography. In this paper we present the transcription of Fermis five lectures in Buenos Aires, a summary of the lecture in La Plata and an extended summary of the lecture in Cordoba, translating them in English for the first time.

The geomagnetic field (Bgeo) sets a lower cutoff rigidity (Rc) to the entry of cosmic particles to Earth which depends on the geomagnetic activity. From numerical simulations of the trajectory of a proton using different models for Bgeo (performed wi th the MAGCOS code), we use backtracking to analyze particles arriving at the location of two nodes of the net LAGO (Large Aperture Gamma ray burst Observatory) that will be built in the near future: Buenos Aires and Marambio (Antarctica), Argentina. We determine the asymptotic trajectories and the values of Rc for different incidence directions, for each node. Simulations were done using several models for Bgeo that emulate different geomagnetic conditions. The presented results will help to make analysis of future observations of the flux of cosmic rays done at these two LAGO nodes.
On this, the occasion of the 20th anniversary of the Ising Lectures in Lviv (Ukraine), we give some personal reflections about the famous model that was suggested by Wilhelm Lenz for ferromagnetism in 1920 and solved in one dimension by his PhD stude nt, Ernst Ising, in 1924. That work of Lenz and Ising marked the start of a scientific direction that, over nearly 100 years, delivered extraordinary successes in explaining collective behaviour in a vast variety of systems, both within and beyond the natural sciences. The broadness of the appeal of the Ising model is reflected in the variety of talks presented at the Ising lectures ( http://www.icmp.lviv.ua/ising/ ) over the past two decades but requires that we restrict this report to a small selection of topics. The paper starts with some personal memoirs of Thomas Ising (Ernsts son). We then discuss the history of the model, exact solutions, experimental realisations, and its extension to other fields.

John Adams acquired an unrivalled reputation for his leading part in designing and constructing the Proton Synchrotron (PS) in CERNs early days. In 1968, and after several years heading a fusion laboratory in the UK, he came back to Geneva to pilot t he Super Proton Synchrotron (SPS) project to approval and then to direct its construction. By the time of his early death in 1984 he had built the two flagship proton accelerators at CERN and, during the second of his terms as Director-General, he laid the groundwork for the proton-antiproton collider which led to the discovery of the intermediate vector boson. How did someone without any formal academic qualification achieve this? What was the magic behind his leadership? The speaker, who worked many years alongside him, will discuss these questions and speculate on how Sir John Adams might have viewed todays CERN.
In 2003.5 Eta Carinae was expected to undergo an X-ray eclipse (Damineli et al., 2000). In the framework of an international campaign to obtain multi-wavelength observations of this event, we have obtained optical CCD images of Eta Carinae. Here, we present the B, V, R, I, data of Eta Car obtained before and during the X-ray eclipse.

With the advent of the Large Array Telescope (LAT) on board the Fermi satellite, a new window on the Universe has been opened. Publicly available, the Fermi-LAT data come together with an analysis software named ScienceTools (ST, http://fermi.gsfc.na sa.gov/ssc/data/analysis/software/) which can be run through a Python interface. Nevertheless, for the user, the ST can be hard to run and imply several steps. Users already contributed with scripts for a specific task but no tool allowing a complete analysis is currently available. We present a Python package called {tt Enrico}, designed to facilitate the data analysis. Using only configuration files and front end tools from the command line, the user can easily perform/reproduce an entire Fermi analysis and make plots for publications. It also include new features like debug plots, pipeline execution on one or several CPUs, downloading of the Fermi data or the generation of a sky model from the Fermi catalogue. {tt Enrico} is an open-source project currently available for download at url{https://github.com/gammapy/enrico}
