Scientists Files of L. Jackson Laslett, 1955-1976 (bulk 1964-1976)

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/78159127

Includes reports, drawings, correspondence, laboratory notes, and architectural and engineering drawings. Records pertain to Laslett's physics work at Lawrence Berkeley Laboratory, the Atomic Energy Commission, and in collaboration with other major accelerator facilities. The records comprise reports and papers from the European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN), Daresbury, University of Maryland, Orsay CEN, Stanford Linear Accelerator Center (SLAC), and other major research facilities. There is also some correspondence and notes with substantial amount of calculations and test data from ESCAR (Experimental Superconducting Accelerator Ring) and other advanced particle accelerators. The records were maintained by the Accelerator and Fusion Research Division, Heavy Ion Fusion Accelerator Research Program.

"The single event that triggered the establishment of Lawrence Livermore was detonation of the first Russian atomic bomb in 1949. Some American scientists were alarmed that the Soviets could advance quickly to the next step, the hydrogen bomb, with potential disaster for the West. Ernest Lawrence was a key participant in the World War II atomic bomb project at Los Alamos, a Nobel Laureate, and founder of the University of California Radiation Laboratory at Berkeley. Edward Teller wa...

Midwestern physicists who had attended the dedication of the Cosmotron at the Brookhaven National Laboratory in the winter of 1952-1953 began discussing the need for a high energy research facility in the Midwest. In the spring of 1953, Professor Enrico Fermi addressed physicists from the Midwest at the Institute of Nuclear Studies in Chicago, giving his views. As a result, physicists from the Universities of Minnesota, Illinois, Michigan, Indiana, Wisconsin and Chicago formed an ad...
