They asked State Sen. Michael J. Barrett '70 (D-Cambridge) to look into the matter...
Healy said that although the question had not been studied, the alcohol would probably be the most dangerous element. He did, however, agree to look into the matter...
...trial and sentencing of club members in the court of campus opinion has left us a bit baffled. Critics of the clubs have adopted the desperate tactic of deliberately and viciously slandering the clubs in order to tarnish their reputation and dissuade potential members from joining. It doesn't matter to them if any of the stories are true...
Their upset was understandable. As the world's premier facility for investigating the fundamental building blocks of matter and energy, the SSC -- or the Ronald Reagan Center for High Energy Physics, as its Texas boosters want to call it -- would attract the best experimental physicists in the world, with their attendant prestige. More important, it would give its home state a major economic boost. The machine's tunnel, a ring through which subatomic particles would race at nearly the speed of light, is to be 150 ft. underground and 53 miles in circumference; building...
...subatomic particles that make up atoms, the bits that constitute the particles and the forces that bind them all together depends on accelerators -- and the bigger the better. The reason: the best way to produce particles for study is to create intense bursts of energy. Einstein's discovery that matter and energy are equivalent guarantees that such bursts will spontaneously transform themselves into particles of matter. The SSC would make these extremely concentrated energy bursts by using its magnets to guide protons, moving at nearly 186,000 miles per second, around the enormous ring in opposite directions. Then they would...
