Last week the University of California at Berkeley put into operation a special machine for attacking atoms from a new angle. Its cost...
...Russian machine is mostly a scaled-up copy of the Berkeley Bevatron and the Cosmotron at Brookhaven National Laboratory. N.Y. It contains some new gadgets, but uses no novel principle.

According to U.S. Physicist Luis Alvarez, who visited Dubna last spring, Russian physicists joke a little about the amount of steel. The Iron Curtain, they told him, was melted down to provide...
