tion from radioaetive elements
Three tvpe.s of radiation were re
cognized bv experimenters, all
capable of being accelerated or
deflected hv a magnetic field ot
an plertric field. Oppositely charg
ed pfates of a condenser nr op
posite pole.s of a magnet would
accelerate the radiation in oppos
ite dirertion.s. Using this know-
ledge, experimenters in atom
smashing could .speed up their
oartieles of radiation or “atomie

titled as helium nuclei, beta ray-
a^ electrons, and gamma ravs a-
one of the results of charges in
the nucleus of an atom. Other
oarticle.s of radiation have beer,
discovered but we shall consider
only the neutron.
Tt was found that uranium

tnorrnous amount of energy. Huge
me.chine.s called cyclotrons were
wed to bombard uranium and the
