    J. J. Thomson\u27s Theory of Matter

    No full text
    J. J. Thomson\u27s theory of matter is largely the outgrowth of his own experimental researches in the nature and structure of electricity. In reading the records of his work it is often hard to discriminate in just what sense he uses the term electricity. It is certainly not well defined whether the term stands for primordial energy or matter

    J. J. Thomson Goes to America

    No full text
    Joseph John (J. J.) Thomson was an accomplished scientist who helped lay the foundations of nuclear physics. A humble man of working class roots, Thomson went on to become one of the most influential physicists of the late 19th century. He is credited with the discovery of the electron, received a Nobel Prize in physics in 1906 for investigations into the conduction of electricity by gases, was knighted in 1908, and served as a Cavendish Professor and Director of the laboratory for over 35 years from 1884. His laboratory attracted some of the world's brightest minds; Francis W. Aston, Niels H. D. Bohr, Hugh L. Callendar, Charles T. R. Wilson, Ernest Rutherford, George F. C. Searle, Geoffrey I. Taylor, and John S. E. Townsend all worked under him. This article recounts J. J. Thomson's visits to North America in 1896, 1903, 1909, and finally 1923. It presents his activities and his personal impressions of the people and society of the U.S.A. and Canada, and the science of atomic physics and chemistry in the late 1800s and early 1900s

    Radiocarbon age profiles and size dependency of mixing in northeast Atlantic sediments

    No full text
    In recent years, the most common technique for radiocarbon dating of deep-ocean sediments has been accelerator mass spectrometry (AMS) analysis of hand-picked planktonic foraminifera (forams). Some studies have exposed age offsets between different sediment size fractions from the same depth within a core and this has important implications when establishing a chronological framework for palaeoceanographic records associated with a particular sediment component.The mechanisms generating the age offsets are not fully understood, a problem compounded by the fact that the fraction defined as “large” varies between different studies. To explore this problem, we dated samples of hand-picked forams from two Biogeochemical Ocean Flux Study (BOFS) cores, for which the presence of an offset between the bulk carbonate and>150 µm foraminiferal calcite had already been demonstrated. The presence of a constant age offset between bulk carbonate and coarse fraction material at the two BOFS sites has been confirmed, but the magnitude of the offset is dependent on whether a simple size-separation technique or hand-picking of well-preserved forams is applied. This may be explained if the selection of well preserved forams biases the sample towards those specimens that have spent least time in the surface mixed layer (SML) or have undergone less size selective mixing. Modeling of the 14C profiles demonstrates that SML depth and sediment accumulation rates are the same for both the bulk and coarse sediment fractions, which is consistent with the hypothesis that size-selective mixing is responsible for the age offset
