...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...
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...
According to Dr. M. Stanley Livingston, director of the CEA, it now appears from external observations that the main force of the explosion was generated by the hydrogen in the filling system of the chamber rather than that in the chamber itself...
...gallons of hydrogen-far more than contained in the famous blimp Von Hindenberg-exploded, the force of the blast would have been much more powerful...
...Billion Volts. Last week a team of Columbia University researchers dispelled the doubts. In the Physical Review Letters, the Columbia scientists reported that they have produced the first complex nucleus of antimatter ever observed-the anti-deuteron. It is the antimatter counterpart to the nucleus of deuterium (heavy hydrogen), consists of an antiproton and antineutron bound by a strong nuclear force, and has a negative charge. Such an achievement, the Columbia researchers conclude, provides strong evidence to support theories about the existence of an antiworld of stars, planets, and possibly even antipeople...
