...foreign schools. At the conclusion of this, an opportunity will be furnished for the members of the association to inspect some of the interesting features of the new research Laboratory, such as the 100,000 volt storage battery, Professor Lyman's ultra-violet vacuum spectograph, Professor Duane's X-ray spectograph, and Professor Bridgman's high pressure apparatus...
...delicately indicated that the average atomic weight of the isotopes of tellurium is (new observation) 127.47 instead of 127.5. Dr. Bainbridge is proud that his machine cost him only $2,000 to build. President Compton of M. I. T. announced the immediate construction of a 15,000,000-volt x-ray tube and equipment to operate it. Building a tube strong enough to carry that tremendous energy is no great feat. General Electric's Dr. William David Coolidge built one for 900,000 volts. It is now being used to treat cancer in Manhattan's Memorial Hospital. Then...
...underground high potential X-ray installation is located outside the building proper in order to provide adequate protection against the penetrating high voltage radiations. In the various laboratories more than 50 research projects are being carried on at the present time...
...Them" referred particularly to Professor Jacob Papish of Cornell, who last autumn recognized eka-cesium with the x-ray spectrograph. With an x-ray spectrograph Professor B. Smith Hopkins of the University of Illinois discovered the third last unknown element, No. 61, of the Periodic Table, which he named illinium (TIME, March...
...prize to the ingenious young men.) Their machine consists essentially of a tesla coil under oil and a cascading cathode tube. The coil builds up an electrical potential to 3,000,000 volts. That enormous power is suddenly dumped into what is basically a series of X-ray tubes ending in a mica window...
