After three years of disappointment, the staff of the Cambridge Electron Accelerator is close to winning funds for what could be the most significant physics research ever done there...
...Cambridge Electron Accelerator's experimental hall, scarred by an explosion six months ago, will re-open to Harvard and M.I.T. physicists in February...
...solutions that immediately revived anabiotic cells, altering the dormant structures. Now, because of the perseverance of German Botanist Ernst Perner, several theories about anabiosis have finally been confirmed. By using dry osmic-acid vapors to fix and stain his slides, Perner has successfully photographed anabiotic pea cells with an electron microscope...
...with this apparatus, we may be able to produce enough energy to see, for example, whether an electron is really a point, as the theory assumes. And we may find instead that it has structure, that it has a radius...
...higher energy would come from the collision of two moving subnuclear particles--an electron and a positron. Normal accelerator experiments send a particle into a stationary target. But these cohisions, Pipkin said, can only take place in a "ring" where both particles are stored--which could cost as much as $16 million to build. The CEA instead would make a giant storage ring out of its accelerator by adding an injector for positrons to the present one for electrons. The two particles would rotate in opposite directions. At a given point the two streams could be made to collide...
