The Charlotte News Wednesday, October 20, 1937 EDITORIAL Lord Rutherford Sandwiched obscurely in the Associated Press report for yesterday is an item announcing that Lord Ernest Rutherford is dead. The good AP seems none to sure as to whom he was, for it says simply that he was a noted physicist, that he won the Nobel prize in chemistry back in 1908, and that his work in physics was concerned mainly with radioactivity. But that is to leave out his greatest claim to fame. We mean that, with Niels Bohr of Copenhagen, he is the author of the theory of the atom which has had greatest currency in the last dozen or more yearswhat may be called the planetary theory of the atom. Under it, the final unit of matter or energy or what have you, is conceived as being made up of a nucleus, composed of a number of negative particles or charges of electricity called electrons, and a greater number of positive particles or charges called protonswith other electrons arranged at infinite distances about the nucleus as the planets are arranged about the sun, to a number sufficient to balance out the excess of protons in the nucleus. Each atom, in other words, stands as a sort of microcosm of the universe. It is a beautiful theory, and, though it has been much modified, that it is essentially sound is proved by its enormous productivity of results in use. Lord Rutherford, like many another great explorer of the secrets of the cosmos, got a great deal less notice at his death than he deserved.

Previous Level [ Ernest Rutherford ] Avogadro's Law Mendeleev Henry Moseley Hess' Law Who was Ernest Rutherford Rutherford, Ernest (1871-1937): Born in New Zealand, Rutherford studied under J. J. Thomson at the Cavendish Laboratory in England. His work constituted a notable landmark in the history of atomic research as he developed Bacquerel's discovery of Radioactivity into an exact and documented proof that the atoms of the heavier elements, which had been thought to be immutable, actually disintegrate (decay) into various forms of radiation. Rutherford was the first to establish the theory of the nuclear atom and to carry out a transmutation reaction (1919) (formation of hydrogen and and oxygen isotope by bombardment of nitrogen with alpha particles). Uranium emanations were shown to consist of three types of rays, alpha (helium nuclei) of low penetrating power, beta (electrons), and gamma, of exceedingly short wavelength and great energy. Ernest Rutherford also discovered the half-life of radioactive elements and applied this to studies of age determination of rocks by measuring the decay period of radium to lead-206.

Ernest Rutherford Ernest Rutherford's family emigrated from England to New Zealand before he was born. They ran a successful farm near Nelson, where Ernest was born. One of 12 children, he liked the hard work and open air of farming, but was a good student and won a university scholarship. After college, he won another scholarship to study at Cambridge University in England a turning point in his life. There he met J.J. Thomson (who would soon discover the electron), and Thomson encouraged him to study recently-discovered x-rays. This was the start of a long, productive, and influential career in atomic physics. Rutherford eventually coined the terms for some of the most basic principles in the field: alpha, beta, and gamma rays, the proton, the neutron, half-life, and daughter atoms. Several of the century's giants in physics studied under him, including Niels Bohr James Chadwick , and Robert Oppenheimer Early on he found that all known radioactive elements emit two kinds of radiation: positively and negatively charged, or alpha and beta. He showed that every radioactive element decreases in radioactivity over a unique and regular time, or half-life, ultimately becoming stable. In 1901 and 1902 he worked with Frederick Soddy to prove that atoms of one radioactive element would spontaneously turn into another, by expelling a piece of the atom at high velocity. Many scientists of the day scorned the idea as alchemy. They stuck with the age-old belief that the atom is indivisible and unchangeable. But by 1904 Rutherford's publications and achievements gained recognition. He was an extremely energetic researcher: in the span of seven years, he published 80 papers.

A Radioactive Substance emitted from Thorium Compounds by E. RUTHERFORD, M.A., B.SC., Macdonald Professor of Physics, McGill University, Montreal From the Philosophical Magazine for January 1900, ser. 5, xlix, pp. 1-14 Communicated by Professor J. J. Thomson, F.R.S. Note: the page numbering is take from "The Collected Works of Lord Rutherford of Nelson," vol. I In order to make clear the evidence of the existence of a radioactive emanation, an account will first be given of the anomalous behaviour of thorium compounds compared with those of uranium. Thorium oxide has been employed in most of the experiments, as it exhibits the 'emanation' property to a greater degree than the other compounds; but what is true for the oxide is also true, but to a less extent, of the other thorium compounds examined, viz. the nitrate, sulphate, acetate, and oxalate. In a previous paper** the author has shown that the radiation from thorium is of a more penetrating character than the radiation from uranium. Attention was also directed to the inconstancy of thorium as a source of radiation. Owens*** has investigated in more detail the radiation from thorium compounds. He has shown that the radiations from the different compounds are of the same kind, and, with the exception of thorium oxide in thick layers, approximately homogeneous in character. The intensity of thoriurn radiation, when examined by means of the electrical discharge produced, is found to be very variable; and this inconstancy is due to slow currents of air produced in an open room. When the apparatus is placed in a closed vessel, to do away with air currcnts, the intensity is found to be practically constant. The sensitiveness of thorium oxide to

Uranium Radiation and the Electrical Conduction Produced by It by E.

Note: the page numbering is take from "The Collected Works of Lord Rutherford of Nelson," vol. I The remarkable radiation emitted by uranium and its compounds has been studied by its discoverer, Becquerel, and the results of his investigations on the nature and properties of the radiation have been given in a series of papers in the Comptes Rendus. * He showed that the radiation, continuously emitted from uranium compounds, has the power of passing through considerable thicknesses of metals and other opaque substances; it has the power of acting on a photographic plate and of discharging positive and negative electrification to an equal degree. The gas through which the radiation passes is made a temporary conductor of electricity and preserves its power of discharging electrification for a short time after the source of radiation has been removed. In the course of the investigation, the following subjects have been considered:
