Killing Looks, Magnetic Personalities are physical realities if Otto Rahn's (Cornell bacteriologist) measuring devices have not deceived him. Living plants and creatures emanate an electromagnetic wave which is shorter and more penetrating, although much less strong than ultraviolet light from the sun. These waves now seem to be the...
It was by following the clues of radio-activity that Drs. Pauli and Chadwick separately reached their conclusions. Recently Professor Walther Bothe of Giessen, Germany, bombarded the element beryllium with alpha particles. Something happened to the alpha particles. The particles contained four units of positive electricity (protons) and two of...
Physics 44. Electromagnetic Theory of Light. Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday, at 10 o'clock. Professor Slater. (XII)
In the wide spectrum of electromagnetic waves-from the very short, very rapid cosmic rays (.000,000,000,004 cm.)* to the comparatively long, slow radio waves (2,500,000 cm.)†only a small section is perceptible to unaided human senses. That section contains light rays and heat rays...
Washington last week caught up with Leyden, Berlin and Toronto in the matter of liquefying helium (after hydrogen most volatile of gases) and keeping it liquid-a scientific feat first accomplished 23 years ago. The jubilant men who did it were staff members of the U. S. Bureau of Standards...
