Uranium Can Be Converted
Into More Thun 20 Elements

LOS Notwithstanding can be
crumbled into 70 different kinds of
demonstrating iron, gold and

a scientist disclosed.
The reaction was described at a
meeting of American Physical So
ciety by DR.. Glenn T. Seaborg, Uni
versity of California nuclear chemist
and c~o-discoverer of plutonium.
DR.. Seaborg said he was able to
create more than two-thirds of all
known elements by bombarding
uranium with particles of other
atoms at an energy of 400 million
electron volts.
At lower energies, he said, the
uranium split into just two or three
other elements.
Some of the new elements were
formed by splitting the uranium
atom into two other atoms. Others
were formed by chopping off as
many as 80 small particles, leaving
a large core of a new element.
The uranium atom splits in so
short a fraction of a second, DR.. Sea-
borg said, that it takes a one over
10 with Is zeros following to repre-
sent it.

sity of California scientist, working
