Walther Bothe famous quotes

Direction coupling between the various radiations generated in a nuclear reaction both with one another and with the initiating radiation can also be detected and measured by coincidences; this provides valuable information about the structure of the atomic nuclei.
-- Walther Bothe -
Many applications of the coincidence method will therefore be found in the large field of nuclear physics, and we can say without exaggeration that the method is one of the essential tools of the modern nuclear physicist.
-- Walther Bothe -
The Laboratory for Radioactivity consisted of only two rooms at the time; at a later date, when tests of radioactive substances became more extensive, it expanded into four rooms.
-- Walther Bothe -
In this case, the particle formed has correspondingly less energy, whereas the product nucleus passes into the ground state with emission of the quantity of energy saved as gamma radiation.
-- Walther Bothe -
To demonstrate this simultaneity is by no means trivial, because it may for example happen that the product nucleus always forms in an activated state at first.
-- Walther Bothe -
Strict conservation of energy in the elementary process had thus been confirmed also by a negative experiment.
-- Walther Bothe -
The material particle nature of primary cosmic radiation has been confirmed, although the processes turned out to be extraordinarily more complicated than we had assumed.
-- Walther Bothe

I really knew I wanted to be Adam, because Adam was the first man. Ant I chose because, if there's a nuclear explosion, the ants will survive.
-
I used to have a military officer travelling with me at all times with a suitcase - referred to as the nuclear football - in case it had to be used.
-
Unprecedented warnings by officials most closely linked with nuclear arms negotiations and defense strategy indicate that we are running out of time. If we fail to act soon, the scars of a major nuclear disaster will mark our immediate and distant future.
-
There is a driving force more powerful than steam, electricity and nuclear power: the will.
-
If the nuclear dossier is referred to the U. N. Security Council, Iran will have to resume uranium enrichment.
-
There is in us a lyric germ or nucleus which deserves respect; it bids a man to ponder or create; and in this dim corner of himself he can take refuge and find consolations which the society of his fellow creatures does not provide.
-
I danced through chemo and radiation cycles.
-
One of the major problems with long-term deep space human flight is the requirement for radiation shielding.
-
All living creatures are sparks from the radiation of God’s brilliance, emerging from God like the rays of the sun.
-
For in 1900 all electromagnetic radiation of longer wavelengths was already known at least to the extent that one could not seek in it the more striking characteristics of X-rays such as, for example, the strong penetrating power.
