Medical Milestones - X-Rays
In November of 1985, Wilhelm Conrad Rontgen, a physics professor changed the course of medical science forever with an accidental discovery of X-rays.
Diamond Detectors for CERN
A video by Auckland University NZ regarding the study of using diamonds for radiation detection for the CMS (Compact Muon Solenoid) at CERN. Full article and more videos- http://www.eequalsmcsquared.auckland.ac.nz/sites/emc2/videos/cool-kiwi-science.cfm 'The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) is under construction at the Centre and Particle and Nuclear Physics (CERN) in Geneva Switzerland. This colossal particle accelerator - 27 kilometers in circumference - is scheduled to produce it's first proton beams in 2007. The LHC will be the most powerful accelerator in the world. Large-scale experiments, such as the Compact Muon Solenoid (CMS) with over 2,000 participating physicists and engineers, are required to detect and analyze the debris of sub-atomic particles that will be produced when the two LHC proton beams undergo head-on collisions. Such collisions will generate a very harsh radiation environment around the collision point, so a radiation monitoring system must be developed. The system is called the Beam Conditions Monitor (BCM) and will consist of a number of small radiation detectors constructed of Chemical Vapour Deposited (CVD) diamond. Diamond is a novel material for a radiation detector. Diamond was selected for use because it is relatively immune from radiation damage and it requires no cooling elements other than air to operate. At Auckland we are examining the unique properties of diamond detectors that will protect the CMS experiment should the proton beams go astray.'
GIOVE-B
A video by ESA regarding the Galileo project. Source- http://www.esa.int/esa-mmg/mmghome.pl 'During the night of 26 to 27 April the second Galileo satellite will be launched from Baikonur on top of a Soyuz rocket. GIOVE-B will be a satellite very close to the satellites planned for the operational Galileo system to be deployed by 2013. In particular it will carry a high precision atomic clock which, once on orbit, will be the most accurate clock ever flying in space. With this launch the European Space Agency and the European Commission are consolidating the foundations of Galileo, the first global civil positioning system.'
