Professor Adon A. Gordus in the Phoenix Memorial Laboratory, August 1961
Year:
1961

Ann Arbor News, September 27, 1961
Caption:
INVESTIGATE HOT ATOMS: Prof. Adon A. Gordus of the chemistry department samples gasses in which radioactive atoms are formed with energies equal to those that would be acquired if they were heated to 1,000,000 degrees. He and his fellow researchers are studying unique chemical reactions that result from the "hot" atoms.

NEW ATOMIC INSTRUMENT: John L. Donivan, U-M research associate, removes the port plug from the U-M nuclear reactor during the initial calibration of a neutron crystal spectrometer under construction at the Phoenix Laboratory. The spectrometer (on right) will be used to provide single-energy neutrons for studies of the physical characteristics of matter.

Caption:
STUDY RADIATION EFFECT: Dr. John Marshall, U-M research associate, uses a protective glove box to work with daphnia (water fleas) that are absorbing radioisotopes from concentrated solutions in a jar. The daphnia are later fed to fish to study the effect of radiation on an animal population in its environment.

Ford Nuclear Reactor operator Thomas Wiard, at the Phoenix Memorial Laboratory, August 1961
Year:
1961
Published In:
Ann Arbor News, September 27, 1961
Caption:
OPERATES REACTOR: Reactor operator Thomas Wiard works in the control room for the Ford Nuclear Reactor in the Phoenix Memorial Laboratory on North Campus. The reactor is used as a tool in the U-M's "atoms-for-peace" research projects. Phoenix Project scientists also aid other nations in establishing atomic research programs and reactors. The project has been appointed nuclear energy authority of the International Co-Operation Administration.

Ann Arbor News, September 8, 1961
Caption:
SEEK CURES FOR DISEASE: U-M medical researchers use every possible avenue, including atomic energy, in their quest for better ways of treating the sick and preventing disease. Here, Prof.P. C. Rajam of the bacteriology department and Miss Shanti K. Seth, a graduate student from India, replace hydrogen atoms from blood serum with tritium, an isotope of hydrogen, in studies that pertain to various diseases.
