Preface :
|
This is an English translation of
"The Internet Seminar
(Microscopic World
-3-
The World of the Atomic Nucleus)"
from the original
Japanese version.
The translation was
done by myself
(the original author)
who may not be good
at the English language.
I hope that somebody proficient
in English
helps me to improve
this English version.
Please send your suggestions
and proposals for improvement
to the following address
by e-mail:
I am looking forward
to your cooperation.
Thank you very much in advance.

The photograph at the top of this page
shows the 10 MV tandem accelerator
at Kyushu University.
It has
the world's highest
voltage gradient.
The tank dimensions are 4m in diameter and 14m in length.
Huge machines are sometimes needed for investigation of the microscopic world. |
