The particle physics community began adapting existing high-energy accelerators to provide heavy-ion nuclear beams. |
Not only do condensed matter physicists use accelerators, but particle physicists use superconductors and solid-state detectors. |
He was distinguished, also, as an oculist and aurist, and removed a particle of iron from the cornea by means of a magnet. |
This stopping power of an atom for an alpha particle is approximately proportional to the square root of its atomic weight. |
However, as a subatomic particle the electron is also a quantum-mechanical object. |
Thus uranium in the sixth group loses an alpha particle and the product UX1 falls in the fourth group. |
