With Ida at his side, a shaken but straightforward Roger deals Louisa a crushing blow: "It seems as if her and me can't help it, Lou, can't keep apart, we shall have...
...single magnetic explosion, which makes a bang like a big gun, destroys costly apparatus, so Furth, Levine and Waniek are trying to design a super-magnet that will not destroy itself. The basic idea is to oppose one magnetic force by another magnetic force instead of by the passive strength of metal. Theoretically this can be done by elaborately wound coils, or by copper sheets intersecting in intricate ways. The theory looks so good that the three scientists are promising to deliver many million gauss of magnetic field, and to churn matter in ways that it has never been churned...

Beneath the bed was a magnetometer detector (a small rectangular box). Wires from the detector led to the control room, where members of the research team watched the magnet's movements recorded by an automatic...
