| Kameshwar Wali and Rosemary Mardling | Some ``Miraculous Consequences'' of Dyanamical Instability in General Relativistic Systems | It is indeed a privilege and honor to dedicate this paper (in collaboration with Professor Rosemary Mardling), celebrating the sixtieth birthday of Rafael Sorkin, a dear friend and mentor. Rafael has been a source of great inspiration for me since his joining our department in 1983. He is indeed an exceptional individual. His originality and his broad and deep understanding of all physics have been exemplary and enviable. Over the years, besides physics, we have also shared common interests in the broader arena of peace and justice and concern for humanity. I wish him many more years of good health and creativity. |
