Meson-Mass Measurements II - On the Measurement of the Masses of Charged Pions

This paper describes the method developed and the results obtained in an extensive program of measurement of the masses of charged pions. Measurements were made of the total ranges in nuclear track emulsion and the momenta (obtained from the curving of the particle trajectory in the magnetic field of the 184-inch cyclotron) of pions and protons of nearly the same velocity.

The Bevatron 9.9-Mev Proton Linear Accelerator (open access)

The Bevatron 9.9-Mev Proton Linear Accelerator

The Bevatron requires an intense source of high energy protons. The machine should accept monoenergetic protons for a duration of approximately 500 microseconds once every 6 seconds. To satisfy the requirements of small loss due to scattering by the gas in the accelerating chamber, a 9.9-Mev linear accelerator has been built and operated.

The Effect of Highly Ionizing Radiations on Cell Survival: a Study of the Relative Biological Effect on Yeast Cells (open access)

The Effect of Highly Ionizing Radiations on Cell Survival: a Study of the Relative Biological Effect on Yeast Cells

An apparatus is described that permits the use of highly ionizing radiations of the Berkeley 60-inch Cyclotron for radiobiological experimentation (ie., deuterons, alpha particles and carbon nuclei).
