Description

Glenn Seaborg

AMS signed “Glenn T. Seaborg, Nov. 1983,” four pages, 8.5 x 11, headed: “Large Einsteinium Accelerator Program (LEAP): A Leap Toward Ultra Heavy Elements.” Draft for an introduction to an article. In part: “Recent research with the heaviest elements on mechanisms of nuclear reactions and the systematics of yields of heavy nuclides produced by heavy ions now makes it clear that the key to further substantial progress is the use of 276-day 254 Es as target material….Its use as target material makes possible a leap forward in the production and study of the nuclear properties of known, and especially new, nuclides at the upper reaches of the periodic table and the study of the largely or completely unknown chemical properties of the transactinide elements.” In fine condition. Pre-certified PSA/DNA.
