A film about the structure of atom and the use of radioactive isotopes in cancer treatment in Canada. Technicians weigh radioactive material in a chemical element. A technician observes the weight indicator on a scale through a microscope. The technician adjusts the balance arm.
A film about the structure of atom and use of radioactive isotopes in cancer treatment in Canada. Small pieces of film sensitive to radioactivity and worn by all employees are checked for radiation in density meter. An employee affected by radiation is fingerprinted. Isotopes are carried into a vault and checked. Equipment being examined with a radio isotope to check for radiation. Isotopes being chemically refined in a laboratory. The isotopes arrive at a cancer hospital in an aircraft. They are unpacked. An instrument that picks up signals from the isotope enables doctors to tell where the isotope is concentrated thus locating cancer. A doctor checks a patient. Each impulse of radiation is amplified as clicking sounds on a clock. A child talks to a man. Atomic scientists at work in laboratories. A worker carries a piece of a radio active material suspended from a rod.
A scientific documentary film titled 'Atoms For Peace' about peaceful uses of atomic energy in Russia. Aerial view of the Moscow Kremlin. Exteriors of Obninsk Nuclear Power Plant in Obninsk Russia, the world's first nuclear power plant, built in 1954. It is also known as APS-1 Obninsk (Atomic Power Station 1 Obninsk). Interiors of the plant and some of the apparatus. Electrical towers on a field.
A scientific documentary film about the peaceful use of atomic energy in Russia. Scientists work on a nuclear reactor. They insert rods inside the reactor. A scientist removes the protective lid of the reactor. Animation depicts : a lattice of rods in the rector. Aluminum coated rods of metallic uranium in the reactor. A nucleus of Uranium consists of protons and neutrons. Neutron bombardment splits the nucleus releasing nuclear energy and neutrons. Initiation of a chain reaction. The rods inserted absorb the extra neutrons. A cross sectional view of the reactor shows a concrete wall around the reactor. Water to reduce the speed of the neutron and to carry heat. Turbo generators used to convert heat to electricity.
A scientific documentary film about the peaceful use of atomic energy in Russia. Turbo generators are used to convert heat to electricity. An atomic reactor for bombardment of materials. A rod of the material to be bombarded is inserted inside the reactor. A crane lowers the lid of the reactor. Technicians leave a room. They work on the control panel. Animation depict neutrons being bombarded on the rods. Rays emitted after the bombardment. Alpha particles are stopped by a piece of paper. Electrons are stopped by a slab of glass. Gamma particles are emitted by a thick concrete slab. The rod is removed after bombardment. An operator removes the rod. The rod is placed in a man hold.
A scientific documentary about the peaceful use of atomic energy in Russia Soviet Union. An isotope is placed in a special container. A technician checks for the radioactive content on surface of the container. The container is taken to a Hot laboratory. The technician opens the door of the laboratory. The door is then closed. A technician operates manipulators and watches through a glass window. Isotopes taken out of the container. A tube is put back into the container. The technician replaces tongs. Rods are picked using the tongs. The rod is cut and shaped under water. Samples of the different shapes of rod placed on a table. A sample rod is put and then removed after refining from an apparatus. A man studies the chemical nature of the rod. A technician operates screw manipulators. Technicians in special suits work. A technician places a sample in a centrifuging machine. Different machines in the laboratory.
