...treated his chemical broth to moderate heat, pressure and other influences that were probably felt in the ancient ocean. Then he analyzed the product and found that it contained a simple nucleic acid. It met all chemical tests, and when its giant molecules were examined under a powerful electron microscope they showed evidence of the twisted, ropelike structure that is characteristic of natural nucleic acids...

...actual experimentation, the electron beam will be aimed at a protonrich liquid hydrogen target. The electrons will be scattered as they emerge from the target. Scientists hope that close study of the scattering pattern may yield clues to the internal composition of the proton, which is no longer considered an indivisible particle but rather a composite of smaller bodies...

...Like the electron-proton scattering experiment, the bubble chamber program will require over a million dollars worth of equipment, and several years to complete...

...experiments will take place in huge underground experimental hall. The hall is 100 by 300 feet--the size of a football field--and is located at a tangent to the main accelerator ring. It is in this room that the electron pulses emerge to be directed at various targets...

This accelerator will overcome the most serious objection to a circular machine: the tremendous quantity of energy that is radiated as the electron revolves around the track. For a fixed orbit radius, the radiation losses increase with the fourth power of the particle energy. Eventually, the point is reached where most of the accelerating energy is lost immediately as radiation...
