	James Chadwick - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Sir James Chadwick (October 20, 1897 – July 24, 1974) was an English physicist and Nobel laureate.
		Chadwick was born in Cheshire, England and educated at the Universities of Manchester and Cambridge.
		In 1932 Chadwick made a fundamental discovery in the domain of nuclear science: he discovered the particle in the nucleus of an atom that became known as the neutron because it has no electric charge.

	James Chadwick - Biography
		James Chadwick was born in Cheshire, England, on 20th October, 1891, the son of John Joseph Chadwick and Anne Mary Knowles.
		In contrast with the helium nuclei (alpha rays) which are charged, and therefore repelled by the considerable electrical forces present in the nuclei of heavy atoms, this new tool in atomic disintegration need not overcome any electric barrier and is capable of penetrating and splitting the nuclei of even the heaviest elements.
		Chadwick has had many papers published on the topic of radioactivity and connected problems and, with Lord Rutherford and C. Ellis, he is co-author of the book Radiations from Radioactive substances (1930).

		James Chadwick was born in Manchester on Oct. 20, 1891, the eldest son of John Joseph and Anne Mary Knowles Chadwick.
		After Chadwick received his master's degree in 1913, he was awarded the 1851 Exhibition Scholarship, which he used to finance his studies under Geiger in the foremost German research institute, the Physikalisch-Technische Reichsanstalt in Charlottenburg near Berlin.
		Chadwick showed, by using a cloud chamber filled with nitrogen, that the radiation caused the nitrogen atoms to recoil with such energy as could be imparted only by collisions with uncharged particles having approximately the mass of protons.

		From 1923 he worked with Ernest Rutherford in the Cavendish Laboratory, Cambridge, where they studied the transmutation of elements by bombarding them with alpha particles and investigated the nature of the atomic nucleus, identifying the proton, the nucleus of the hydrogen atom, as a constituent of the nuclei of other atoms.
		In 1932 Chadwick observed that beryllium, when exposed to bombardment by alpha particles, released an unknown radiation that in turn ejected protons from the nuclei of various substances.
		Chadwick interpreted this radiation as being composed of particles of mass approximately equal to that of the proton, but without electrical charge--neutrons.

		In 1991, the centenary of Chadwick's birth, a Chair of Experimental Physics at the University of Liverpool became the James Chadwick Chair of Experimental Physics.
		Chadwick (1891-1974) was born in Bollington, 18 miles from Manchester, England; son of a cotton spinner, and thus raised on meager means.
		Chadwick preferred obscurity to glory, and refrained from public statements on the politics of the bomb; he held that such debates were for the public, not scientists, to dominate.

		Just 2 years before Chadwick had his main discovery, a scientist called Wolfgang Pauli suggested that he had found a neutron, it was a light partictle which he thought existed in the nucleus.
		But when Chadwick had his discovery of the neutron, then another scientist by the name of Enrico Fermi realised that Pauli's paticle was just created by Beta decay.
		So Chadwick found out that there was a new part to the atom, the neutron, and this lead to the new, extended model of the atom, which nobody had seen before.

	The Neutron and the Bomb: A Biography of Sir James Chadwick
		Chadwick's central role in the unfolding drama of nuclear physics is reflected in his publications and voluminous correspondence (many selections of which are included here) with other leading figures like Niels Bohr and Lord Rutherford.
		Chadwick's life was molded by great events, including both world wars (which carried him though internment camps and narrow escapes) and the development of the atom bomb.
		Chadwick is not widely remembered these days, which is why Brown's biography of him is a salutary reminder of his achievements.

		Sir James Chadwick received the Nobel Prize in physics for this work.
		Chadwick had found a new elementary particle, the third basic component of the nucleus.
		Because the neutron was relatively massive but neutral, it was scarcely affected by the cloud of electrons surrounding the nucleus or by the positive electrical barrier of the nucleus itself; thus it could penetrate the nucleus of any element.
