Xray. The same rays were found in Bolivia and in California, showing that they come from a source so vast & remote that they strike the whole surface of the earth impartially. Theoretical calculations by Millikan out of Einstein, on the strength of the rays that would be shot forth if hydrogen atoms collided to form oxygen or nitrogen, perfectly checked the actual measurements made...

...atom. Out of the wreck a new fluorine atom emerges, but not for long. It explodes immediately, shooting off a furiously fast atom of hydrogen and a slower atom of a new kind of oxygen which is heavier than either the helium or the nitrogen atom. According to Einstein's theory, when helium is formed from lighter hydrogen atoms, energy is given off (enough to heat an ordinary house from 500 to 1 ,000 years in the formation of one pound of helium atoms...

...light from a Cooper-Hewitt mercury arc, but the spectral region in which the bands occur corresponds to frequencies 100,000,000 times greater than those emitted by the Cooper-Hewitt arc. Having measured the ray, Dr. Millikan sat down to figure out its importance. He turned to Einstein's theories. He found, using the Einstein equation (M C 2-E), that the most conspicuous band in the cosmic ray spectrum is probably the same band that would be formed by the monochromatic ether wave of the radiant energy which is liberated when hydrogen unites to form an atom...

...star, as winner of the Nobel Prize in physics (1907), as the man who fixed the standard length of a metre bar in terms of the wave length of cadmiun light. It was he who helped devise the Michelson-Morley experiment in interference of light, with bearing on the Einstein theory. But the learned world did not know him as a former naval officer, nor as an excellent violinist, nor as a keen tennis player, nor as an amateur of literature and drama. A self-taught artist, Dr. Michelson had his only instruction in drawing as a midshipman at Annapolis...
