In the House of Lords, Laborite peers cited the estimate of Nobel Prize Chemist Linus Pauling of California's Institute of Technology that 1 ,000 people would die of leukemia as a result of the fallout of the Christmas Island explosion. Earl Attlee, Labor's former Prime Minister now in the House of Lords, said, "Some scientists think we are going to poison...
...mental deficiency genetically determined? Probably so, says California Institute of Technology's famed Chemist Linus Pauling. Last week the Ford Foundation announced that it was betting $450,000 (to be spread over five years) on Pauling's hunch...
...fiction created by a band of Zwicky's colleagues). Brilliant young Theoretical Physicist Richard Feynman is a master at breaking lock and safe combinations (during World War II, he made the rounds of Los Alamos safes, depositing "Guess who?" notes in them). In his spare time, Nobel Chemist Linus Pauling likes to blast away at the souped-up claims of advertisers (he once completely deflated a popular chlorophyll deodorant by proving that instead of killing a smell, the stuff merely paralyzed the nose). But on matters affecting the institute, individualism melts into unity. On one occasion, a visiting professor...
...earth long enough to worry about such purely practical matters as smog, the effect of wave and surge on harbor installations, the first large-scale testing of hydraulic pumps, and, through their study of the laws of aerodynamics, the design of better airplanes. But the work of Nobel Chemist Linus Pauling is of a more rarefied order. The foremost pioneer in applying the quantum theory to the study of chemical bonds, he found that the "resonance" of the atom is the source of the forces that hold molecules together. He discovered the alpha helix as the fundamental feature of many...
