Digilov, M. – Quantum, 1991
Discusses 5 innovative experiments conducted by Rutherford in early 1900s utilizing the 30 milligrams of radium salt he personally carried from Europe to Canada in 1903. Traces his work with alpha particles from his original results which determined their nature, charge, and mass, to his technique of backscattering which helped to advance…

Chesick, John P. – Journal of Chemical Education, 1989
Uses simple pulse NMR experiments to discuss Fourier transforms. Studies the generation of spin echoes used in the imaging procedure. Shows that pulse NMR experiments give signals that are additions of sinusoids of differing amplitudes, frequencies, and phases. (MVL)

Martin, R. Bruce – Journal of Chemical Education, 1988
Reexamines the electronic structure of water considering divergent views. Discusses several aspects of molecular orbital theory using spectroscopic molecular orbitals and localized molecular orbitals. Gives examples for determining lowest energy spectroscopic orbitals. (ML)
Descriptors: Atomic Structure, Chemical Analysis, Chemical Bonding, Chemistry

Gallup, G. A. – Journal of Chemical Education, 1988
Describes why specific forms of orbitals used to interpret spectroscopy involving electronic transitions may not say much about the electronic structure of molecules. Discusses several theoretical approaches to explain the anomoly. Determines that the Lewis electron-pair model for molecules is a good predictor of spectroscopic results. (ML)
