Friedman Family Papers 1844-1944
No full textAaron Friedman was a rabbi, shochet, and author. He was a shochet in Stavisk, Poland, Bernkastel-on-the-Moselle, Germany, and New York City, and author of a defense of the practice of Shechita entitled, âTuv Taâamâ in 1874. This collection also contains information on his son, Abraham Friedman and his grandson, Nathan Friedman. This collection consists of correspondence, business documents, family photographs, personal effects, genealogical information, and publications.This collection is located at the American Jewish Historical Society located in Boston.

When he was seventeen he became the shochet (a licensed and trained ritual slaughterer) for the city of Stavisk. He later moved to Bernkastel-on-the-Moselle in Germany where in 1844, he became a rabbi and shochet for the city. He married Rebecca Lieberman of Frankfort. In 1848, he moved to New York where he was chosen as shochet of one of the largest abattoirs (slaughterhouse) in the city. In response to attacks made against the practice of shechita, Friedman wrote a defense of shechita entitled âTuv Taâamâ in 1874. He became known as the âBaâal Shemâ of America because of his strict Orthodoxy. He remained a shochet of New York City until his death on May 17, 1876.Finding Aid available in Reading Room and on Internet.Published citations should take the following form: Identification of item, date (if known); Friedman Family Papers; P-948; box number; folder number; American Jewish Historical Society, Boston, MA and New York, NY.far031
WMAP-normalized inflationary model predictions and the search for primordial gravitational waves with direct detection experiments
No full textIn addition to density perturbations, inflationary models of the early Universe generally predict a stochastic background of gravitational waves or tensor fluctuations. By making use of the inflationary flow approach for single field models and fitting the models with Monte Carlo techniques to cosmic microwave background (CMB) data from the Wilkinson Microwave Anisotropy Probe (WMAP), we discuss the expected properties of the gravitational wave background from inflation at scales corresponding to direct detection experiments with laser interferometers in space. We complement the Monte Carlo numerical calculations by including predictions expected under several classes of analytical inflationary models. We find that an improved version of big bang observer (BBO-grand) can be used to detect a gravitational wave background at 0.1 Hz with a corresponding CMB tensor-to-scalar ratio above 10(-4). Even if the CMB tensor-to-scalar ratio were to be above 10(-2), we suggest that BBO-grand will be useful to study inflationary models as the standard version of BBO, with a sensitivity to a stochastic gravitational wave background Omega(GW)h(2)> 10(-17), will only allow a marginal detection of the amplitude while leaving the tensor spectral index at 0.1 Hz unconstrained. Also, inflationary models with a large tensor-to-scalar ratio predict a substantial negative tensor spectral index such that the gravitational wave amplitude is damped at direct detection frequencies. We also discuss the extent to which CMB measurements can be used to predict the gravitational wave background amplitude in a direct detection experiment and how any measurement of the amplitude and the spectral tilt of the gravitational wave background at direct detection frequencies together with the CMB tensor-to-scalar ratio can be used to establish slow-roll inflation

Milton Friedman and U.S. monetary history: 1961-2006
No full textThis paper, using extensive archival material from several countries, brings together scattered information about Milton Friedman's views and predictions regarding U.S. monetary policy developments after 1960 (i.e., the period beyond that covered by his and Anna Schwartz's Monetary History of the United States). The author evaluates these interpretations and predictions in light of subsequent events.Friedman, Milton ; Federal Reserve System - History ; Economic history
