Taco de Bruin and William Meggers at the National Bureau of Standards spectroscopy laboratory
Abstract/Description: | (L-R): T. L. de Bruin, left, a noted Dutch scientist, of the University of Amsterdam who was selected by the International Education Board for research work in spectroscopy at the Bureau of Standards at Washington, has recently completed the analysis of the spectrum of arsenic and five other rare elements, never before completely analyzed. Special analysis of chemical elements is one of the most important and simple methods of determining the conditions of the atoms in any substance. Dr. de Bruin is photographed with Dr. W.F. Meggers, right, chief of the spectroscopy section of the Bureau in their laboratory at Washington. |
