Also today on the nuclear front, Glenn Seaborg is continuing his work with plutonium (still called element 94 at this point):
Segrè and Seaborg conduct a test today showing that plutonium's cross section for slow-neutron fission is about 1.7 times that of U235 making it a better source for a nuclear weapon than uranium provided that enough of it can be produced.
