Page 45 - Geiger coming to me in great excitement and saying, 'We have been able to get some of the alpha particles coming backwards.'. ..It was quite the most incredible event that has ever happened to me in my life. It was almost as incredible as if you fired a 15-inch shell at a piece of tissue paper and it came back and hit you. Page 84 - Black 0 Brown 1 Red 2 Orange 3 Yellow 4 Green 5 Blue 6 Violet 7 Gray 8 White 9 and orange has a resistance of 47,000 ft; green, blue, green signifies 5,600,000 ft, or 5.6 \fft, etc. Page 16 - Newton was not the first of the age of reason. He was the last of the magicians, the last of the Babylonians and Sumerians, the last great mind which looked out on the visible and intellectual world with the same eyes as those who began to build our intellectual inheritance rather less than 10,000 years ago. Page 169 - Laboratory which is operated by the University of Chicago for the US Department of Energy under Contract No. Page 72 - The general conclusion which must, I think, be drawn from this collection of facts is, that electricity, whatever may be its source, is identical in its nature. The phenomena in the five kinds or species quoted, differ, not in their character but only in degree; and in that respect vary in proportion to the variable circumstances of quantity and intensity... Page 22 - I was brought up to look at the atom as a nice hard fellow, red or grey in colour, according to taste," Rutherford told a dinner audience once. Page 15 - Where the telescope ends, the microscope begins. Which of the two has the grander view? Page 30 - To present direct and tangible demonstration, through the study of the behavior in electrical and gravitational fields of this oil drop, carrying its captured ions, of the correctness of the view advanced many years ago and supported by evidence from many sources that all electrical charges, however produced, are exact multiples of one definite elementary electrical charge; or, in other words, that an electrical charge, instead of being spread uniformly over the charged surface has a definite granular... Page 26 - ... which must be overthrown, surmounted, or turned, if chemical science is ever to develop into a definite, an organised unity. This barrier is nothing less than the chemical elements commonly so called, the bodies as yet undecomposed into anything simpler than themselves. There they extend before us, as stretched the wide Atlantic before the gaze of Columbus, mocking, taunting, and murmuring strange riddles, which no man yet has been able to solve.
