		With Gustav Hertz, he experimented in electron bombardment of gases, providing support for the theory of atomic structure proposed by Niels Bohr and information for the quantum theory of Max Planck.
		It is caused by the unequal bombardment of larger particles, from different sides, by the smaller molecules of the fluid.

	Bombardment - LoveToKnow 1911
		It is, therefore, obvious that mere bombardment can only achieve its object when the amount of suffering inflicted upon non-combatants is sufficient to break down their resolution, and when the commandant permits himself to be influenced or coerced by the sufferers.
		A threat of bombardment will sometimes induce a place to surrender, but instances of its fulfilment being followed by success are rare; and, in general, with a determined commandant, bombardments fail of their object.
		Bombardments are, however, frequently resorted to in order to test the temper of the garrison and the civil population, a notable instance being that of Strassburg in 1870.

	CRSQ Notes - Extraterrestrial Bombardment of the Inner Solar System
		Previously, Dr. DeYoung and I proposed that extraterrestrial bombardment of the Earth occurred with the onset of the Flood (Froede and DeYoung, 1996).
		However, the greatest period of extraterrestrial bombardment, for both the Moon and Earth, occurred later in their history according to uniformitarian scientists, who continue to discover new sources of information for age-dating this period in time.
		It was during the terminal lunar cataclysm that the Moon underwent massive bombardment based on the analysis of the over 1,700 large (12.5 to 750 mile diameter) impact craters on its surface (Cohen, Swindle, and Kring, 2000).

	SPACE.com -- Evidence for Ancient Bombardment of Earth
		In sedimentary rock that had previously been dated to 3.7 billion years ago or older, researchers found an isotope of the element tungsten in amounts that do not typically occur on Earth and so are thought to be of extraterrestrial origin.
		The whole question of the bombardment is important because many researchers believe life would have found it difficult to get going under such chaotic conditions.
		An important question for biologists is whether life arose on Earth only after the bombardment, or whether it might have begun earlier and either had its development throttled by the influx of asteroids and comets or, possibly, been reset entirely.

	SPACE.com -- New Insight into Earth's Early Bombardment
		Known as the "Late Heavy Bombardment," or LHB, this period of heightened meteorite activity would have had important implications for life on Earth, since it coincides roughly with the time that scientists think the first primitive bacteria appeared on our planet.
		It's possible that life emerged only after the bombardments slackened, or if it began earlier, it might have been disrupted or even reset by the intense hail of meteorites.
		Another intriguing possibility, say Duncan and others, is that rather than being vehicles of death and destruction, meteorites carried life, or molecules important for the emergence of life, to Earth.

	First World War.com - Battles - The First and Second Naval Bombardment of the Dardanelles, 1915
		A purely naval bombardment of the Straits had long been recognised in professional naval circles as a most difficult undertaking.
		Even should the naval bombardment prove successful the absence of ground troops would prevent the British from gaining command of the shorelines - and in the absence of supplies from the shore the naval fleet would necessarily have to return home to refuel and restock.
		While the outer forts were themselves seized by marines the Allied force could not effective silence the 24 Turkish mobile batteries that poured shellfire from the heights and served as highly effective protection for the elaborate minefield defence set in place in The Narrows.

		The 25th Bombardment Group (Medium) (10th, 12th, and 35th, and 417th Bombardment Squadrons) which had formerly been a "heavy" outfit, the 9th Bombardment Group (Heavy) (1st, 5th, 99th, and 430th Bombardment Squadrons), and the 59th Bombardment Squadron (Light) were detached from the VI Bomber Command in June 1942 and attached to the VI Fighter Command.
		The Headquarters, 6th Bombardment Group (Heavy), was inactivated in October 1943, and the VI Bomber Command assumed command jurisdiction over the units formerly assigned to the 6th Bomb Group, becoming responsible for the tactical operations and training of both tactical and non-tactical units assigned to the bases under its command.
		The 29th Bombardment Squadron, the last of the VI Bomber Command's four squadrons to be returned to Rio Hato, was moved from the Galapagos Islands to Rio Hato in October, and attached to the 74th Bombardment Squadron.

	Atomic Bombardment, 1932-1938
		In a 1933 interview, Rutherford called such expectations "moonshine." Einstein compared particle bombardment with shooting in the dark at scarce birds, while Bohr, the Danish Nobel laureate, agreed that the chances of taming atomic energy were remote.
		They also found that carbon and hydrogen proved useful as moderators in slowing the bombarding neutrons and that slow neutrons produced the best results since neutrons moving more slowly remained in the vicinity of the nucleus longer and were therefore more likely to be captured.
		One element Fermi bombarded with slow neutrons was uranium, the heaviest of the known elements.

	The Avalon Project - Laws of War : Bombardment by Naval Forces in Time of War (Hague IX); October 18, 1907
		The bombardment by naval forces of undefended ports, towns, villages, dwellings, or buildings is forbidden.
		After due notice has been given, the bombardment of undefended ports, towns, villages, dwellings, or buildings may be commenced, if the local authorities, after a formal summons has been made to them, decline to comply with requisitions for provisions or supplies necessary for the immediate use of the naval force before the place in question.
		It is the duty of the inhabitants to indicate such monuments, edifices, or places by visible signs, which shall consist of large, stiff rectangular panels divided diagonally into two coloured triangular portions, the upper portion fl, the lower portion white.

	Bombardment
		Brand names, slogans, and images are bombarded at consumers every day: commercials on television shows; billboards on the sides of highways; hidden promotions when movie characters use certain brand names; and endorsements by celebrities and famous sports stars on televised and live sports events.
		These types of bombardments and subliminal messages are discussed on the page about short arguments.
		Bombardment, therefore, is a very effective type of peripheral advertising which exploits the frequency effect, in which we remember information because it is repeated to us often (Brehm et al, 2002)^.

	Auditory Bombardment - Caroline Bowen
		Auditory bombardment is a procedure in which the client is provided with intensified, repeated, systematic exposure to multiple exemplars of phonological targets and contrasts.
		Auditory bombardment also increases lexical frequency and controls phonological input for limited periods, potentially presenting an opportunity for children to discover underlying phonological patterns for themselves.
		Auditory bombardment is used on the basis that phonological progress is sensitive to phonological input (Ingram, 1989).

		Anbar and his colleagues reason that if the bombardment had a smaller-than-expected effect on the composition of sediments, it may also have had a smaller-than-expected effect on early life.

		In this dynamical simulation of the late heavy bombardment, the Sun is in the center, the colored circular rings represent the orbits of the four giant planets, and the green dots represent the disk of planetesimals between 15.5 AU and 34 AU.
		This portrait of planetary migration explains the late heavy bombardment, the orbital parameters of the outer planets, the present orbital distribution of main-belt asteroids, and the presence of Jupiter's Trojan asteroids.

	First Evidence For Early Meteorite Bombardment Of Earth
		It is widely accepted that the moon was heavily bombarded at this time, creating huge craters and basins.
		But although the effect of these impacts is still clearly visible on the moon today, movement of Earth's dynamic plates over geological time have reshaped the terrestrial surface dramatically, leaving little evidence of these catastrophic events.
		"We have in effect found a chemical fingerprint in the earth's oldest terrestrial rocks of a heavy meteorite bombardment 3.8 to 4 billion years ago," he said.
