...Harvard cyclotron was planned and constructed by a group composed of Kenneth T. Bainbridge, associate professor of Physics; Jabez C. Street, associate professor of Physics; Roger W. Hickman, lecturer in Physics and Engineering; and John J. Livingood, instructor in Physics, working under the Committee on Nuclear Physics, of which Harry R. Mimno, associate professor of Physics, in chairman...

...Technology a clever, conscientious young physicist named Carl David Anderson found anomalies in cosmic-ray behavior which convinced him that, in the upper air particles were being created which were lighter than protons but heavier than electrons, and both positively and negatively charged (TIME, Nov. 29, 1937). Drs. Jabez Curry Street and Edward Carl Stevenson of Harvard also vouched for the existence of this queer entity. At first there seemed to be no place for it in the physical scheme. Then it was recalled that the Japanese physicist, Yukawa, had postulated the existence of just such a thing to help...
...existence of "heavy electrons," also known as X-particles or barytrons, was suspected by Anderson and his co-workers in 1934, and later discovered almost simultaneously by him and Drs. Jabez Curry Street & Edward Stevenson of Harvard. These queer little particles appear to originate about ten miles above the earth's surface as a result of collisions between primary cosmic ray particles and air atoms. Calculations of their mass have yielded figures from 110 to 400 times the weight of an ordinary electron...
