sary for efficiently conducting

inside the atom, all solid material van- ished. Atoms of copper, iron, carbon, and the other chemical elements were not solid chunks of material at all, but different combinations of electrical charges existing in empty space. Sir Ernest Rutherford made the first pie ture of the atom. It was something like our solar system, with the sun as the heart or nucleus of the atom with its charge of positive electricity, and the planets around it as the electrons.

Ramsey, Sir Ernest Rutherford, Fred erick Soddy and T. R. Royds, British scientists, discovered that the radiation consisted of alpha and beta particles and gamma rays. Alpha particles were atoms of the gas helium charged with positive electricity. Beta particles were high speed electrons or particles of negative electricity. Gamma rays were a form of invisible light like X.rays that could travel through a heavy sheet of lead. The helium atoms were stopped by a thin sheet of aluminium foil, while the electrons went through a sheet of aluminium but were stopped by the lead.

(1) Studying the apparently constant source of energy given of by radio active elements, Albert Einstein in 1905 brought forth a startling formula. With the formula, he demonstrated that matter-solid material that you can hold in your hand, lift, measure, weigh or break into bits-could be transformed into energy. A small amount of matter could produce an enormous amount of energy. The mag nitude of the energy was in the ratio of the weight of material in grams times the square of the speed of light, 30,000, 100000 centimeters per second, or l06,000 miles second.
