...crazy, but this novel approach proved to be useful -- especially in the following years, when Lee made improvements that substantially increased the variety of reactions that could be studied this way. The method is analogous to that of particle physicists, who accelerate beams of speeding subatomic particles, smash them together or into a target, and then study the resulting debris. Herschbach's and Lee's beams consist of molecules instead of subatomic particles; when the molecules collide at about the speed of sound, they react to form new molecules, which spray in different directions. By looking at what new molecules...

Their 1 1/2-hour show will cover four decades of music, from Singin' through today's hits, but, says O'Connor, 60, "we don't try to be young. We just think young. I wouldn't compete with the me of 30 years...
