National Meld. Nikita Khrushchev, who five years ago sneeringly remarked he could obliterate West Germany with eight hydrogen bombs, has wangled himself an invitation to Bonn to meet Chancellor Erhard. Object: trade and propaganda, both of which Khrushchev sorely needs. Peking promptly charged Khrushchev with planning to sell East Germany down the river. This is hardly an immediate danger to Puppet Walter Ulbricht, though anxious East German bosses might be forgiven for wondering...
...Chemists call a fat saturated if each carbon atom along the molecular chain has hydrogen atoms attached. It is monounsaturated if one carbon atom is free of the hydrogen bonds; it is polyunsaturated if two or more are free. *Amid a plethora of diet books, a new edition of Jolliffe's Reduce and Stay Reduced on the Prudent Diet (Simon & Schuster; $4.95) is the biggest seller...
...their elegant laboratories near La Jolla, Calif., General Dynamics scientists are doggedly attacking a difficult problem: how to extract controlled power from hydrogen fusion. The pay off for their work is hidden in the future, but the powerful magnetic fields they have built to hold reacting hydrogen gas at 100 million degrees has already yielded a valuable practical "fallout." Those same magnetic forces used on a smaller scale have proved remarkably versatile for shaping metal...
...competence," he says, "but my personal opinion is that it does imply water." Further deductions are even more iffy, but Dr. Strong suspects that free oxygen may exist along with carbon dioxide in the Venusian atmosphere. If so, it probably comes from water molecules that are broken into hydrogen and oxygen by ultraviolet radiation from...
...Brookhaven's apparatus was built around the 33-bev (billion electron volt) Alternating Gradient Synchrotron, and it used a line of magnets and electrostatic separators 400 ft. long to isolate negative K-mesons. Ten of the K-mesons were allowed to enter Brookhaven's 80-in. liquid-hydrogen bubble chamber every 2½ seconds, and pictures were taken of the results. Two pictures out of 100,000 showed tracks in the LH2 that proved to be the "signatures" of omega-minus particles. They all curved just right and took off in the right directions. Careful calculations with...
