Anti-proton experiment, Berkeley, 1955 C016 / 8832

Anti-proton experiment. Blackboard showing the provisional results and calculations for a series of experiments carried out in 1955 at the Berkeley Radiation Laboratory to discover the antiproton. Antiprotons were made by firing protons at a copper target in an early particle accelerator. This discovery of the antiproton by physicists Emilio Segre and Owen Chamberlain (together with a separate set of experiments by another group in 1956), confirmed Diracs prediction of antimatter. Segre and Chamberlain were awarded the 1959 Nobel Prize in Physics for the discovery. Photographed on 6 October 1955, at the University of California, Berkeley, USA

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a pivotal moment in scientific history - the anti-proton experiment conducted at Berkeley in 1955. The image showcases a blackboard adorned with provisional results and intricate calculations, symbolizing the dedication and meticulousness of the physicists involved. The experiment aimed to discover the existence of antiprotons, which were produced by bombarding protons onto a copper target within an early particle accelerator. This groundbreaking discovery confirmed physicist Paul Dirac's prediction of antimatter and revolutionized our understanding of particle physics. Physicists Emilio Segre and Owen Chamberlain led this remarkable research endeavor, ultimately earning them the prestigious Nobel Prize in Physics in 1959. Their tireless efforts paved the way for further advancements in this field. Taken on October 6th, 1955, at the University of California, Berkeley, USA, this photograph serves as a testament to human curiosity and relentless pursuit of knowledge. It encapsulates not only an important milestone but also highlights the significance of collaboration between scientists from different backgrounds. Preserved by Library of Congress/Science Photo Library, this historical artifact offers us a glimpse into one chapter of scientific progress that continues to shape our world today. As we gaze upon this monochrome image filled with equations and symbols representing countless hours spent experimenting and calculating, we are reminded once again that science is both an art form and a gateway to unlocking nature's deepest secrets.
