Here's the provisional schedule for the 1927 Solvay conference talks

Give a brief verbal biography of their life, at the start of class, under 2 minutes total length. The mark for this is the same as a quiz (this can only be performed at a later time with appropriate medical certificate).

NOTE that you can have some notes at hand if you like when you give the talk.

Some useful links include http://nobelprize.org/  note that Ehrenfest and Brillouin are the persons on the list not awarded a prize...
while searching the articles at http://www.wikipedia.org/ should help.

The movie that i showed in class is found via http://www.maxborn.net/index.php?page=filmnews
