The "Atoms for Peace" conference, whose 50th anniversary will be commemorated this week in Geneva, marked a turning point in the history of nuclear research. The conference was of particular significance for fusion scientists, heralding a new era of international exchanges and cooperation. The event reverberated around the whole world — and beyond. To celebrate the new openness to which the world was heading, the International Astronomic Union decided to give the name "Atoms-for-Peace" to a galaxy (NGC 7252) 300 million light-years away, in the constellation Aquarius. For fusion scientists, it was a perfect symbol: "Atoms-for-peace" is the result of a "collision" between two disc-shaped galaxies that merged to form a new body - a bit like fusion, but on a grand scale. << return to Newsline #53 |
