Libby

In the intervening years mueh excellent analytical work has been done by Libby, Lord, Dodd, Deeds, Palanisamy and many others which has given us a practical method of understanding eddy current behavior in many applications including nuclear inspection and aerospace where problems of safety and reliability have become so important to us all.

Under his guidance, the chemistry department at Berkeley became perhaps the most prestigious in the country. Among the faculty and graduate students that he attracted were five future Nobel Prize winners Harold Urey in 1934, William Giauque in 1949, Glenn Seaborg in 1951, Willard Libby in 1960, and Melvin Calvin in 1961. 

During the 1950s, Professor W. F. Libby (1908-1980) of the University of Chicago and others worked out a method for determining the age of organic material It is based on the decay rate of carbon-14. The method can be applied to objects from a few hundred up to 50,000 years old. It has been used to determine the authenticity of canvases of Renaissance painters and to check the ages of relics left by prehistoric cave dwellers.

Rates (101k) of dedeuteration by 0.6 M KNHa in liquid ammonia at 0° were also determined by Hall et al. as follows Benzene, 1000 toluene, 410 (ortho), 360 (meta), 440 (para) /-butylbenzene, 32 (ortho), 210 (para). The toluene values are in fair agreement with those in Table 177, and the low reactivity at the or/Ao-position of /-butylbenzene was considered to be of steric origin. (G. E. Hall, E. M. Libby and E. L. James, J. Org. Chem., 28 (1963) 311).

In the technique developed by Willard Libby in Chicago in the late 1940s, the proportion of carbon-14 in a sample is determined by monitoring the (1 radiation from C02 obtained by burning the sample. This procedure is illustrated in Example 17.4. In the modern version of the technique, which requires only a few milligrams of sample, the carbon atoms are converted into C ions by bombardment of the sample with cesium atoms. The C ions are then accelerated with electric fields, and the carbon isotopes are separated and counted with a mass spectrometer (Fig. 17.19).
