...fighters, ABC will beam a heavyweight bout between Ken Norton and Jimmy Young, two leading contenders for the crown, live from Las Vegas on Saturday night, at 9 p.m. The winner stands a good chance of getting a shot at the current titleholder, and if you do not know who that is, you probably would not be interested in watching the fight anyway...
...love summer most of all, every degree of temperature, every beam of the sun, every gulp of iced...
...heart disease; in the U.S.S.R. Budker, who joined the Soviet Atomic Energy Institute in 1946, did early work on graphite-moderated uranium reactors and contributed to the development of the Soviet hydrogen bomb. As director of the Siberian Institute of Nuclear Physics in Novosibirsk, he helped design a "colliding beam" accelerator-now used in high-energy physics research-in which a beam of electrons collides with a beam of positrons...
...plastic) and a giant half-moon with glowing nose and spoon (a coke joke). While Studio 54 is fast, loud and frenzied, the month-old New York New York (membership $150) is cool and comparatively low decibel. Borrowing from the Hay den Planetarium, light specialists have devised a laser-beam system that throws streamers of color over the dancers and peppers the floor with shards of light. At one moment, the crowd may be enveloped by a mixture of fog and Faberge; at another, clouds of red smoke billow from the floor, subsiding in a gentle shower of emerald...
Other groups of scientists are placing their bets on a different technique: "inertial confinement." This process involves the high-power laser or electron-beam bombardment of tiny pellets crammed with deuterium and tritium. The sudden application of the energetic beams causes instant vaporization, or boiling away, of the outer surface of the sphere. As the pellet coating flies outward, it pushes back against the deuterium and tritium, compressing and heating the mixture. If the impinging beams are energetic enough, the effect will be so great that the nuclei will fuse, releasing energy like a miniature H-bomb. Among others, researchers...
