Alfred Lee Loomis From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Jump to: navigation search Alfred Lee Loomis (November 4, 1887 – August 11, 1975) was an American attorney investment banker physicist philanthropist , and patron of scientific research. He established the Loomis Laboratory in Tuxedo Park, New York , and his role in the development of radar is considered instrumental in the Allied victory in World War II . He invented the Aberdeen Chronograph for measuring muzzle velocities, proposed the LORAN navigational system, contributed significantly (perhaps critically, according to Luis Alvarez ) to the development of a ground-controlled approach technology for aircraft, and participated in preliminary meetings of the Manhattan Project . Loomis also made contributions to biological instrumentation—working with Edmund Newton Harvey , he co-invented the microscope centrifuge, and pioneered techniques for electroencephalography In 1937 he discovered the sleep K-complex brainwave.

Sept. 1, 1988, Berkeley, Calif.), American experimental physicist who was awarded the Nobel Prize for Physics in 1968 for work that included the discovery of many resonance particles (subatomic particles having extremely short lifetimes and occurring only in high-energy nuclear collisions). Alvarez studied physics at the University of Chicago (B.S., 1932; M.S., 1934; Ph.D., 1936). He joined the faculty of the University of California, Berkeley, in 1936, becoming professor of physics in 1945 and professor emeritus in 1978. In 1938 Alvarez discovered that some radioactive elements decay by orbital- electron capture; i.e., an orbital electron merges with its nucleus, producing an element with an atomic number smaller by one. In 1939 he and Felix Bloch made the first measurement of the magnetic moment of the neutron, a characteristic of the strength and direction of its magnetic field. Alvarez worked on microwave radar research at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Cambridge (1940-43), and participated in the development of the

32. Nitrogen Detection Alvarez, Luis W.; A method and apparatus for detecting concentrations of nitrogen between 20% and 30 http://www.devileye.net/catalog/nitrogen_detection.html

Nitrogen detection Alvarez, Luis W.; A method and apparatus for detecting concentrations of nitrogen between 20% and 30% by weight such as is common in explosives is disclosed. A microtron having an output electron beam at a level below 45 MeV is targeted onto a typically tungsten target to provide gamma radiation levels. Deflection magnets adjacent to the target deflect the electron beam of the microtron to cause it to scan. Articles placed on a container containing suspect nitrogen are systematically scanned and output gamma radiation of 511 keV detected from nitrogen. Nitrogen concentrations and consequently expected concealed explosives are easily mapped in two or three dimensions, quantitatively. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION It has been proposed to tag all commercially produced explosives with a unique material that can be easily identified. Vapor taggants of considerable cleverness have been investigated. However, they have two strikes against them, namely the required cooperation of explosives manufacturers (common to any taggant program; explosives manufacturers are particularly resistant to introducing any substance that reduces the performance or reliability of the explosive), and the ease with which the system can be circumvented by appropriately sealing the bomb. This second drawback can be circumvented if a taggant is used that can be detected by its nuclear properties, or by some other penetrating probe. I have previously suggested that explosives or detonators that have been partially deuterated are easily detected by irradiation with 4 MeV gammas. This takes advantage of the fact that deuterium has the second lowest threshold for (gamma,n), and has the additional advantage that explosive performance is not sacrificed, since deuterated X has the same chemistry as ordinary X. The estimated cost is of the order of 10 cents per detonator or stick of dynamite. This scheme is adaptable to area searches (when everyone has been evacuated), where, with the longer integration time permitted, it is possible to search a whole airplane at once. Unfortunately, all tagging schemes have the distinct disadvantage that they have no applicability to scenarios that are driven by forces of international terrorism.

Garwin (Published in Memorial Tributes everything that had been written on the subject" of nuclear physics. He also soon knew the contents "of every drawer and cabinet in the Radiation Laboratory," and resurrected the first small cyclotrons from oblivion. Key to his evolution as a scientist was Ernest Lawrence's journal club, meeting every Monday night at 7:30 a tradition that continued for decades in Luis' home. Also influential was the "Bethe Bible," three articles published by Hans Bethe in Reviews of Modern Physics in 1936 and 1937. Luis' highly developed competitive spirit was stimulated by these 468 pages "If he (Bethe) said a phenomenon would never be observable, I wanted to prove him wrong, which would make both of us happy. In several significant instances over the next four years, I did." Luis' discoveries in Physics are treated at length in his autobiography and in Discovering Alvarez cube of the range to the submarine. As the aircraft approached, the submarine would detect

Television viewer Alvarez, Luis W.; A viewing system for use with a cathode ray tube display comprising an objective lens which focuses the display image onto a limited light diverging screen having orthogonally arranged lenticular lenses on its opposite planar surfaces and which diverts the projected light to produce an image of maximum brightness in a hypothetical ellipse having a major dimension of six inches and minor dimension of two inches at a viewing distance of sixteen inches. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION This invention relates to a television viewing device and, more particularly, to such a device which receives television signals, reproduces images from those signals, and optically projects those images onto a compact viewing screen. Furthermore, a miniaturized screen, with an appropriate optical display, lends itself to a closed circuit, "color wheel" type system in which a black and white CRT field sequentially displays images which are sequentially viewed by an observer through a revolving color filter wheel whose revolutions are synchronized with the field scanning rate of the CRT display. In the earliest rotating color wheel systems, the face of the cathode ray tube was viewed directly, so it was necessary to employ a color wheel larger in radius than the actual screen size. Such a structure would not be acceptable to present day users. In the present invention, with its use of specially designed projection optics, the rotating wheel can be smaller in diameter than the height of the final viewing screen, so it does not require a "bulge" in the cabinet. And the wheel can be placed at many different points along the optical axis, at the choice of the designer.
