Bulletin of the Geological Society of America Isotopic BULLETIN OF THE GEOLOGICAL SOCIETY OF AMERICA VOL. ee PP. 1131-1148 SEPTEMBER 1955 ISOTOPIC COMPOSITION AND DISTRIBUTION OF LEAD, URANIUM, AND THORIUM IN A PRECAMBRIAN GRANITE By GEORGE R. TILTON, CLAIRE PATTERSON, HARRISON BROWN, MARK INGHRAM, RICHARD HAYDEN, DAVID HESS, AND ESPER LARSEN, JR. ABSTRACT The isotopic compositions and concentrations of lead and uranium have been deter- mined in some separated minerals and the composite of a granite from Monmouth town- ship, Haliburton County, Ontario. The chemical and mass spectrometric methods that were used are described. The age of the zircon from the granite is 1050 million years. Much of the lead, uranium, and thorium exists in chemically unstable and presumably interstitial phases of the granite. A comparison of the observed amounts of uranium, thorium, and lead in the various minerals with those amounts that should have been pres- ent, had these three elements existed within the minerals as closed systems, shows a non- balance of these elements in every case. It appears that the granite as a whole has closely approximated a closed system since it was formed with respect to uranium and its decay products, but has been an open system with respect to thorium and its decay products. Interpretations concerning the relationship of these data to lead ores are discussed.

    RUDD BROWN (b. 1920) INTERVIEWED BY SHIRLEY K. COHEN January 31, 1995 Photo courtesy of Tom Apostol ARCHIVES CALIFORNIA INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY Pasadena, California Subject area Geology, geochemistry, social sciences, United States Congress Abstract An interview on January 31, 1995, with Rudd Brown, on the subject of her former husband, Harrison Brown (1917-1986), who was a professor of geochemistry in the Division of Geological and Planetary Sciences at Caltech from 1951 to 1977, with a joint appointment in the Division of Humanities and Social Sciences as professor of science and government, from 1967. Among other policy positions, he was foreign secretary of the National Academy of Sciences from 1962 to 1974. In 1977, he left Caltech to become director of the Resource Systems Institute at the East-West Center, in Honolulu, remaining there until 1983. Brown came to Caltech from the University of Chicago, and was shortly followed there by several other Chicago geochemists, including Clair Patterson and Samuel Epstein. He and Rudd were married c. 1950 and divorced in 1975. In this interview, she outlines his family background and childhood in Sheridan, Wyoming, and San Francisco and his wartime work at Oak Ridge. She recalls their early life together at the University of Chicago after World War II and their subsequent years at Caltech, including its social life. She discusses his interest in the problems of overpopulation, resource sustainability, agricultural productivity, http://resolver.caltech.edu/CaltechOH:OH_Brown_R and East-West relations. She recalls his help in her political campaigns for Congress in 1958 and 1960 and concludes with recollections of his involvement with the Center for the Study of Democratic Institutions in the 1960s.

  • Pugwash Literature Review Paul Rubinson April 2019
    Pugwash Literature Review Paul Rubinson April 2019 During the 1990s, historians began to study the reasons for the Cold War’s abrupt end. While scholarship at first emphasized the role of traditional, powerful political actors such as Ronald Reagan and Mikhail Gorbachev, more and more historians began to study the influence of non-state actors, including social activists and nongovernment organizations (NGOs), on Cold War foreign relations and their contributions to the conflict’s end. When the Pugwash Conferences on Science and World Affairs, along with co-founder Joseph Rotblat, were awarded the 1995 Nobel Peace Prize, scholars began to pay closer attention to the historical role of these particular scientific activists. Founded in 1957, the Pugwash conferences brought together notable scientists from both sides of the Iron Curtain to discuss nuclear disarmament in an informal but serious setting. The hope was that these elite scientists would be able to sway their respective governments into pursuing arms control measures. As one of its original participants explained, the ideal Pugwash conference consisted of politically influential scientists “free from governmental ties” as well as “opinion-makers…who are concerned with policy making on a governmental or semi-governmental level. Any major thoughts that were developed at such a meeting could then filter through the observers to the general public and to the governments involved.”1 Over time Pugwash expanded to include a wider array of scientists and social scientists and broadened its scope to include chemical and biological weapons, third world development, and other issues. On an international level, Pugwash was led by a General Secretary and Continuing Committee based in London.

Advice from Prof. Andy Lawson to a young student. INTRODUCTION When asked to write a summary of my professional life, I had no notion of how difficult it would be. There is the form and the substance, the remembrances and the reality, the discipline and the hope, the frustration of not finding a way, and the satisfaction of finding a trail. Of all of the experiences, the greatest one, the biggest turn-on, is the rare feeling that one has some understanding of nature. I have had the honor and privilege of receiving the Crafoord Prize of the Royal Swedish Academy from the King of Sweden, but my greatest occasions of excitement came when I thought I had possibly understood something. The greatest satisfaction comes in feeling that the work I have done or contributed to has some beauty.

  • Clair Patterson in the Laboratory, Circa 1952, the Year He Came to Caltech
    Clair C. Patterson (1922-1995) INTERVIEWED BY SHIRLEY K. COHEN March 5, 6 and 9, 1995 ARCHIVES CALIFORNIA INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY Pasadena, California Subject area Geology, geochemistry Abstract In this interview in March 1995, nine months before his death, Clair C. (Pat) Patterson, professor of geochemistry, emeritus, talks about his early interest in physical chemistry; his education at Grinnell College, in Iowa; his stint on the Manhattan Project at Oak Ridge; and his subsequent graduate work at the University of Chicago with Harrison Brown, where he measured the isotopic composition and concentration of minute quantities of lead with a mass spectrometer. He received his PhD at Chicago in 1951. After a year there as a postdoc, he came to Caltech with Brown, who established a geochemistry program in the Division of Geology. By 1953, having measured the isotopic composition of primordial lead in iron meteorites, Patterson was able to determine the age of the earth at 4.5 billion years. He then turned to a study of the natural levels of terrestrial lead and discovered that in the modern industrial environment, lead concentrations had greatly increased, from such sources as leaded gasoline and the solder used in food cans—with a corresponding increase in lead levels in human beings. He discusses his investigation of lead levels in seawater, oceanic sediments, and polar ice cores and his calculation of the rise in environmental lead levels beginning with the mining of lead in Greek and Roman times. At the end of the interview, he discusses his current interest in the evolution of different http://resolver.caltech.edu/CaltechOH:OH_Patterson_C neuronal networks for two kinds of thinking, utilitarian and nonutilitarian—and his belief that this is illustrated by similarities in utilitarian thinking in the Old and New Worlds, while their cultural (nonutilitarian) development was dissimilar.
