Arthur C. Reid, 19, a laboratory technician at the Cambridge Electron accelerator, died at Massachusetts General Hospital Tuesday night of burns and injuries suffered in the July 5 CEA explosion...
Work may resume within three months in the now-shattered experimental hall of the Cambridge Electron Accelerator...
...atom contains only one proton and one electron, which makes it the lightest element known to science. It is completely colorless, completely odorless. And it is that ultimate simplicity that has earned for hydrogen some of the most sophisticated jobs in modern science. Refrigerated into a liquid state, hydrogen is helping physicists to peer into the heart of the atom, to trace the fleeting histories of the smallest building blocks of matter. Space scientists are depending on it to launch the Apollo spacecraft that will take the first U.S. astronauts to the moon...
...most intractable and unforgiving substances on earth. It is given to violent explosions on the slightest opportunity. It was only natural that the very presence of a tank of liquid hydrogen was immediately blamed last week for the blasts that rocked the Harvard-M.I.T. electron accelerator laboratory at Cambridge and injured eight young scientists...
Preliminary Atomic Energy Commission investigations of Monday's shattering explosion at the Cambridge Electron Accelerator (CEA) indicate that the 95 gallons of liquid hydrogen contained in the bubble chamber were expelled safely by an emergency venting system and ignited harmlessly...
