L'OREAL AWARD TO WOMEN PHYSICISTS

This year's "for women in science" awards by cosmetics giant L'Oreal and 
the UN Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) recognize 
lifetime achievements by women in condensed matter sciences.  The awards are 
in their fifth year but this is the first time they've rewarded work in the 
physical sciences.  The awards were also increased fivefold this year, with
five women from five continents each receiving $100 000. 
  The five awardees are Johanna Levelt Sengers of NIST (North America), 
Ayse Erzan of the (Istanbul Technical University (Europe),
Mariana Weissmann of the Atomic Energy Commission in Buenos Aires (Latin 
America), 
Fang-hua Li of the Institute of Physics in Beijing (Asia),
and Karimat El-Sayed of Ain Shams University, Cairo (Africa).
