...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...
Sometime next month a switch will be thrown at the Cambridge Electron Accelerator, sending light flooding into the experimental hall that has been dark since last July's explosion. For many Harvard and M.I.T. physicists it will signal the start of a million dollar gamble...
...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...
Scientists at the Cambridge Electron Accelerator will for the first time get a detailed look at their experiments while they are in progress, when a new computer is installed at the Computation Center in January...
