- The Laboratory for Radioactivity consisted of only two rooms at the time; at a later date, when tests of radioactive substances became more extensive, it…
- In this case, the particle formed has correspondingly less energy, whereas the product nucleus passes into the ground state with emission of the quantity of…
- To demonstrate this simultaneity is by no means trivial, because it may for example happen that the product nucleus always forms in an activated state…
- Strict conservation of energy in the elementary process had thus been confirmed also by a negative experiment.
- The material particle nature of primary cosmic radiation has been confirmed, although the processes turned out to be extraordinarily more complicated than we had assumed.
- Rossi was the first to describe another system working with valves in parallel; it has the advantage that it can easily be extended to coincidences…
- This result was confirmed by different researchers using various experimental arrangements.
- During this time I had the singular good fortune of being able to discuss the problem constantly with Einstein. Some experiments done at Einstein's suggestion…
