About This Item
Booth, Andrew Donald and Booth, Ian J. PET revisited, a 40 year overview. Offprint from Physics in Canada 40 (March 1984). Unbound, stapled. Inscribed on p. 57: "With the compliments of IJB." 57-60pp. Text diagrams. 280 x 217 mm. Provenance: From Andrew D. Booth.
Written jointly with Booth's son. The Booths used a Commodore PET computer, a machine with a MOSTEC 6502 microprocessor and 32 KB memory, to re-evaluate the data in the senior Booth's 1944 doctoral thesis on the crystal structure of pentaerythryol tetranitrate. "The results . . . show clearly the revolution which the electronic digital computer has produced in the calculation of crystal structures" (p. 60). Origins of Cyberspace 501.
