Extractions: Ernest Orlando Lawrence (1901-1958) American physicist, was born in August 8th 1901, in Canton, and died in Palo Alto, California, in August 27th 1958. Studied in St. Olaf College, in the University of Minnesota, in the University of Chicago and in the University of Yale. In 1928, entered the University of California as Associate Professor of Physics. In 1930, was appointed professor and in 1936 became director of the Radiation Laboratory of the University of California at Berkeley. This institution, now called Lawrence Berkeley Laboratory, became an important research center of Nuclear and Particle Physics. Lawrence is known for his development of the cyclotron, an instrument that accelerates charged atoms at high-speed, to accomplish nuclear transmutations. With his coworker Milton Livingston, Lawrence built the first cyclotron in 1930, although he had already proposed the idea in an article two years before. The cyclotron is one of the main instruments for studying atomic nuclei and elementary particles. Ernest Lawrence received the American Medal of Merit, the Physics Nobel Prize in 1939 and Fermi Award in 1957.

Extractions: A few months before the Second World War started in Europe, the physics world was shaken by a discovery that would change Ernest Lawrences life. German scientists reported that the uranium nucleus, when hit by a neutron, splits into two smaller nuclei nuclear fission. Unlike the earlier splitting off of small pieces of atoms, fission released some of the huge store of energy bound in the nucleus. When the news reached the United States, staff in Lawrences Radiation Laboratory bombarded uranium with neutrons and confirmed that they had missed another major discovery. Like many physicists, Lawrence sensed the tremendous possibilities of a nuclear chain reaction. Lawrence to John Cockcroft; February 9, 1939

He died almost exactly 57 years later on 27 August 1958. Lawrence invented the concept of the circular particle accelerator in 1929 after reading Rolf Wideroe's account of acceleration in a linear device. By January 1931, together with his student Stanley Livingston, he had built his first successful cyclotron - a device only 5 inches in diameter that reached 80,000 electron volts (80 keV). And in August that year , the University of California gave him the former Civil Engineering Test Facility on the Berkeley campus to house a huge magnet he had aquired to convert for use in a much bigger cyclotron. The old "Radiation Laboratory" was the origin of what is now the large laboratory that bears Lawrence's name - the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory . In 1939, Lawrence was awarded the

Extractions: Glenn Theodore Seaborg (19121999) was involved in identifying nine transuranium elements (94 through 102), and he served as chairman of the United States Atomic Energy Commission (AEC) from 1961 to 1971. In 1951 he shared the Nobel Prize in chemistry with the physicist Edwin M. McMillan. Born in Michigan, Seaborg earned his bachelor's degree at the University of California at Los Angeles and his doctorate in chemistry from the University of California at Berkeley. He then served as research assistant to G. N. Lewis and eventually became chancellor of the university. He worked away from Berkeley during two significant periods: once to participate in the Manhattan Project at the University of Chicago from 1942 to 1946 and then again to chair the AECfrom which he returned to Berkeley. In 1940 Edwin McMillan, assisted by Philip Abelson (later editor of Science magazine), confirmed and elucidated the phenomenon of nuclear fission announced by Otto Hahn and Fritz Strassmann in 1939. Specifically, he identified element 93, neptunium, among the fission products of uranium that was bombarded with neutrons produced from deuterons using the small (27-inch) cyclotron at Berkeley. McMillan also predicted the existence of element 94, plutonium, which he expected to find among the products of uranium under direct deuteron bombardment. McMillan, however, was suddenly called away to do war work and eventually joined the program at Los Alamos to build nuclear bombs. After World War II, his scientific reputation was enhanced by his critical contributions to the theory of particle accelerators.

Here he soon invented one of the most essential apparatus of nuclear physics: the cyclotron (1931, patent #1,948,384). At that time, particle accelerators-devices used to shoot electrons, charged protons or ions at atomic nuclei-were linear: that is, the particles were shot at the target by a burst of static electricity along a straight path. Lawrence and others realized that they could give the particles muchgreater speed within a smaller space if they could build momentum by whirling them in a spiral before releasing them. Lawrence made this possible by inventing the "cyclotron." In this device, an electromagnetic field keeps a beam of charged atomic particles in orbit within a structure made of two opposed D-shapes, while a radio-frequency electric charge boosts the particles' speed each time they cross the gap between "dees." In this way, particles can be brought to very great speeds before they are released to collide with the target. By analyzing such collisions between charged particle and nucleus, scientists learn much about the structure and characteristics of atoms, and can even produce artificial radioactivity.

Extractions: Photo: Four-inch copper-encased cyclotron, one of Ernest Lawrence's ealiest models When Ernest Orlando Lawrence (1901-1958) got his PhD in physics, the hottest topic was bombarding the atom's nucleus to see what new particles it might produce. Ernest Rutherford had only recently shown that striking the atom of one element could make it emit electrons and turn into a different element. Lawrence joined the physics faculty of the University of California (Berkeley) in 1928 and got intrigued with this new physics. So far, people had used alpha particles (the product of natural radioactivity) and protons (hydrogen atoms, containing a positive charge of 1) to bombard other atoms. But they had about exhausted that field of research. To learn more, they needed an artificial way to accelerate these particles to greater energy. Several accelerators were invented to give the bombarding particle a huge "kick" of electric potential. But it seemed that you'd need a kick of about 1 million volts to get the required acceleration, and making a machine to withstand that power was nearly impossible. Around this time, Lawrence happened to read a German paper describing a linear accelerator that boosted a particle's energy in steps using alternating electric fields. This did increase the particle's speed but to really get it up to the desired energy, the accelerator would have had to be impractically long. Lawrence knew that a magnetic field would deflect the charged particles into a curved path. By making the particles go in a spiral, he could boost their energy bit by bit each time they circled an electrode. The circular machine could fit in one room. The particles would spiral outward as they gained more energy, and when they were moving fast enough, they'd shoot out of the device with amazing force into a collector.

Aug. 27, 1958, Palo Alto, Calif.), American physicist, winner of the 1939 Nobel Prize for Physics for his invention of the cyclotron, the first particle accelerator to achieve high energies. Lawrence earned his Ph.D. at Yale University in 1925. An assistant professor of physics at Yale (1927-28), he went to the University of California, Berkeley, as an associate professor and became full professor in 1930. Lawrence first conceived the idea for the cyclotron in 1929. One of his students, M. Stanley Livingston, undertook the project and succeeded in building a device that accelerated hydrogen ions (protons) to an energy of 13,000 electron volts (eV). Lawrence then set out to build a second cyclotron; when completed, it accelerated protons to 1,200,000 eV, enough energy to cause nuclear disintegration. To continue the program, Lawrence built the Radiation Laboratory at Berkeley in 1936 and was made its director. One of Lawrence's cyclotrons produced technetium, the first element that does not occur in nature to be made artificially. His basic design was utilized in developing other particle accelerators, which have been largely responsible for the great advances made in the field of particle physics. With the cyclotron, he produced radioactive phosphorus and other isotopes for medical use, including radioactive iodine for the first therapeutic treatment of hyperthyroidism. In addition, he instituted the use of neutron beams in treating cancer.
