TL;DR: One of the striking features of Dirac's theory of the electron was the appearance of solutions to his equations which required the existence of an antiparticle, later identified as the positron.

TL;DR: A series of counter experiments is being carried out at the Berkeley Bevatron and 184-inch cyclotron to measure total and differential scattering cross sections for pions at energies above the first resonance as mentioned in this paper.
Abstract: A series of counter experiments is being carried out at the Berkeley Bevatron and 184-inch cyclotron to measure total and differential scattering cross sections for pions at energies above the first resonance. (1-3) In this Letter we report the results of measurements of the total cross section for positive and negative pions on protons in the energy range from 450-Mev to 1650-Mev pion kinetic energy (lab).

TL;DR: Results indicate that heavy ion beams are suitable for tumor therapy, studies relating to space biology, and fundamental radiobiology, as well as for research into depth-ionization properties and the biological effects.
Abstract: Studies of the depth-ionization properties and the biological effects of heavy ion beams produced at the bevatron have extended work previously done with less energetic beams from other sources. Results indicate that heavy ion beams are suitable for tumor therapy, studies relating to space biology, and fundamental radiobiology.

TL;DR: In this paper, the 15-inch hydrogen bubble chamber was operated in a separated beam of 1.15 sintering time 0.02-Bev/c K- mesons produced by the Bevatron.
Abstract: ln an attempt to establish the existence of a neutral cascade hyperon /sup 0/, the 15-inch hydrogen bubble chamber was operated in a separated beam of 1.15 sintering time 0.02-Bev/c K- mesons produccd by the Bevatron. Of seven double V/sup 0/ events one was interpreted as a /sup 0/ cascade. A photograph and diagrams are presented. (W.D.M.)

TL;DR: In a scintillation-counter experiment the interaction of antiprotons with protons in the energy region 133 to 333 Mev has been studied in this article, where an electrostatic-magnetic velocity spectrometer was used in the external magnetic channel to increase the ratio of antiparticles to pions.
Abstract: In a scintillation-counter experiment the interaction of antiprotons with protons in the energy region 133 to 333 Mev has been studied. Antiprotons, produced internally in the Bevatron, channeled externally by a system of magnetic quadrupoles and bending magnets, and identified by time of flight, entered a target containing liquid hydrogen. This target was completely surrounded by a system of scintillation counters which detected both scattered antiprotons and annihilation secondaries. An electrostatic-magnetic velocity spectrometer was used in the external magnetic channel to increase the ratio of antiprotons to pions. The $\overline{p}\ensuremath{-}p$ total, elastic, inelastic, and charge-exchange cross sections, and the angular distribution of elastic scattering were measured at each energy. The inelastic cross section is approximately one-half the total cross section at these energies. The results are discussed in connection with current theories.
