Britannica CD Index Articles Dictionary Help Lawrence, Ernest Orlando (b. Aug. 8, 1901, Canton, S.D., U.S.d. Aug. 27, 1958, Palo Alto, Calif.), American physicist, winner of the 1939 Nobel Prize for Physics for his invention of the cyclotron, the first particle accelerator to achieve high energies. Lawrence earned his Ph.D. at Yale University in 1925. An assistant professor of physics at Yale (1927-28), he went to the University of California, Berkeley, as an associate professor and became full professor in 1930. Lawrence first conceived the idea for the cyclotron in 1929. One of his students, M. Stanley Livingston, undertook the project and succeeded in building a device that accelerated hydrogen ions (protons) to an energy of 13,000 electron volts (eV). Lawrence then set out to build a second cyclotron; when completed, it accelerated protons to 1,200,000 eV, enough energy to cause nuclear disintegration. To continue the program, Lawrence built the Radiation Laboratory at Berkeley in 1936 and was made its director. One of Lawrence's cyclotrons produced technetium , the first element that does not occur in nature to be made artificially. His basic design was utilized in developing other

Lawrence, Ernest Orlando US physicist. His invention of the cyclotron particle accelerator pioneered the production of artificial radioisotopes and the synthesis of new transuranic elements. Nobel prize 1939. During World War II, Lawrence was involved with the separation of uranium-235 and plutonium for the development of the atomic bomb, and he organized the Los Alamos Scientific Laboratories at which much of the work on this project was carried out. After the war, he continued as a believer in nuclear weapons and advocated the acceleration of their development. Lawrence was born in South Dakota and studied there and at Minnesota, Chicago, and Yale universities. He was professor of physics at the University of California, Berkeley, from 1930 and director from 1936 of the Radiation Laboratory, which he built into a major research centre for nuclear physics. The first cyclotrons were made in 1930 and were only a few centimetres in diameter. Each larger and improved design produced particles of higher energy than its predecessor, and a 68-cm/27-in model was used to produce artificial radioactivity. Among the results obtained from the use of the accelerated particles in nuclear transformations was the disintegration of the lithium nucleus to produce helium nuclei.
