Parsons, Robert

The greater part of Parsons childhood was spent at the family s castle and estate at Parsonstown (now Birr), County Offaly, Ireland. The workshops there were extensive, and he grew up surrounded by tools and machinei y. He was privately educated by, among others, Sir Robert Ball, a man who encouraged him to spend time not just in the classroom, hut also in the workshops. With these facilities and the guidance of his parents aird tutor, he developed an exceptional talent for engineering.

Meanwhile, Arnold Beckman (b.1900), hitherto a manufacturer of electronic pH meters, had joined forces with Robert Brattain - the brother of Walter Brattain of transistor fame - at Shell Research, with the encouragement of the U. S. Government s Rubber Reserve Company. Beckman s first commercial infrared spectrometer, the IR-1, was developed in 1942 and was used by the wartime synthetic rubber research program. However, the classified nature of this and similar work meant that Beckman spectrometers were not generally available until 1945, when the IR-2 was marketed. Meanwhile, in Britain, Adam Hilger and Grubb Parsons independ-...

Oppenheimer acted quickly to maximize the laboratory s efforts to master implosion. Only if the implosion method could be perfected would the plutoniiun produced at Hanford come into play. Without either a plutonium gun bomb or implosion weapon, the burden would fall entirely on uranium and the less efficient gun method. Oppenheimer directed a major reorganization of Los Alamos in July 1944 that prepared the way for the final development of an implosion bomb. Robert Bacher took over G Division (for gadget) to experiment with implosion and design a bomb George Kistiakowsky led X Division (for explosives) in work on the explosive components Hans Bethe continued to head up theoretic studies and Deke Parsons now focused on overall bomb construction and...
