Many CEA scientists now believe the explosion was touched up by liquid hydrogen which spilled while being fed into the experimental hall's bubble chamber. The CEA is considering requesting funds for a separate bubble chamber building on the grounds so that an accident would be much less destructive there than in the present hall. The chamber is now being re-assembled but will not be used by the Harvard-M.I.T. experimenters who being work in November...
...Collins, CEA assistant director and senior research fellow, said Tuesday that the bubble chamber, for safety reasons, probably will not be returned to the CEA experimental hall. The hall was devastated by an explosion July 5. Most observers, Collins said, now believe that the blast was touched off when liquid hydrogen being fed into the bubble chamber spilled onto the floor...
...rips through the experimental hall of the Cambridge Electron Accelerator, injuring eight Harvard and M.I.T. scientists and technicians and causing at least $1 million in damage. The explosion blew the roof off the circular experimental hall and severely damaged the bubble chamber then being filled with 100 gallons of liquid hydrogen...
JULY 7--Preliminary investigation indicates that 95 gallons of liquid hydrogen in the bubble chamber were expelled safely and that hydrogen in the chamber filling system may have caused the explosion...
...Threat. Louisianans were too weary to panic when Army engineers reported that a barge loaded with 600 tons of liquid chlorine was missing. If the chlorine should escape, the engineers warned, a wave of deadly gas might engulf the delta. (Civilian chemists disagreed, said it might even help purify the polluted water.) The river was closed to shipping for 40 miles below Baton Rouge while the Army brought in 116,000 gas masks, and a flotilla of Navy and Coast Guard ships searched for the barge. When divers finally found it after five days, its chlorine tanks were intact...
