We use Optical Character Recognition (OCR) during our scanning and processing workflow to make the content of each page searchable. You can view the automatically generated text below as well as copy and paste individual pieces of text to quote in your own work.

Text recognition is never 100% accurate. Many parts of the scanned page may not be reflected in the OCR text output, including: images, page layout, certain fonts or handwriting.

PHYSICAL RESEARCH 35 versity of California Radiation Laboratory Bevatron (largest proton- synchrotron operating in the U.S., as of the fall of 1958), the California Institute of Technology Electron-Synchrotron, the Cornell University Electron-Synchrotron, and Stanford University Linear Accelerator; also, construction work and principles of the Princeton University - University of Pennsylvania Synchrotron (Cosmotron type), Argonne National Laboratory Proton-Synchrotron (up to 12 Bev), Brookhaven Alternating Gradient Synchrotron (25-30 Bev), and the Harvard-MIT Alternating Gradient Electron-Synchrotron (6 Bev). Also included are brief data on studies at Stanford, Oak Ridge, and Midwestern Uni- versities Research Association on the linear, spiral magnet, and fixed-field alternating gradient types, respectively. HIGH ENERGY PHYSICS RESEARCH (A Geneva-1964 film). 23 minutes, color. Produced by USAEC's Argonne National Laboratory. For sale by Byron Motion Pictures, in English, French, Spanish, or Russian, at $65.29 per print, including shipping case, F.O.B. Washington, D. C. English version available for loan from USAEC headquarters and field libraries. Cleared for television. Some 20 very high energy accelerators, scattered throughout the world, are being used to probe the characteristics of subatomic particles. The new particles and their interactions have brought about reconsideration and revision of some of the fundamental laws of physics. This technical film indicates our current understanding of subnuclear particles, nuclear forces, and surveys the status of high energy physics research in the United States. This includes the general types of accelerators and the devices used for particle detection and analysis, the efforts to organize the data into a unified general theory, the difficulty of this problem, and the many remaining questions. INTRODUCTION TO HIGH VACUUM (1961). 18 minutes, color. Produced by Brookhaven National Laboratory and Audio Pro- ductions for the USAEC and the American Vacuum Society. For sale by Audio Productions, at $72.00 per print, including ship- ping case, F.O.B. New York. Available for loan (free) from USAEC headquarters and field libraries. Cleared for television. This technical film (primarily intended for use by engineers, scientists, technicians, students, and personnel of industrial, chemical, and processing plants) defines high vacuum and shows how it is produced and measured. Information is given on the contributions of Torricelli and Von Guericke to vacuum physics; how vacuum is expressed (millimeters of mercury, Torr, particles per cubic centimeter); flow characteristics (viscous and molecular) of gases under vacuum and their influences on vacuum techniques; mechanical and nonmechanical vacuum pumps and their principles of operation (oil-seal rotary, dry-
