The electrons rush through a stream of mercury vapor ions overloaded with four charges of positive electricity. Ions and electrons crash and reinforce their speeds, giving the stupendous effect of 1,000,000 volts. If the 1,000,000 volts available at Caltech were used initially, the effect would be four times as powerful. If, as the physicists hope, they can load the mercury ions five or six times, they expect to get the equivalent of five or six million volts...
