Blackett, Patrick Maynard Stuart, Baron Blackett British physicist. He was awarded a Nobel prize 1948 for work in cosmic radiation and his perfection of the cloud chamber, an apparatus for tracking ionized particles. Blackett was born in Croydon, Surrey, and joined the navy 1912; after World War I, he studied science at Cambridge. He held posts at various British academic institutions. In 1924, working under physicist Ernest Rutherford at Cambridge, Blackett made the first photograph of an atomic transmutation, which was of nitrogen into an oxygen isotope. He continued to develop the cloud chamber and 1932 designed one where photographs of cosmic rays were taken automatically; the device soon confirmed the existence of the positron. Later he discovered particles with a lifespan of 1010 sec, which became known as strange particles. In the 1950s he turned to the study of rock magnetism.

Patrick Maynard Stuart Blackett From Nobel Lectures , Physics (In corso di traduzione in italiano) The Nobel Prize in Physics Patrick Maynard Stuart Blackett was born on 18th November, 1897, the son of Arthur Stuart Blackett. He was originally trained as a regular officer for the Navy (Osborne Naval College, 1917; Dartmouth, 1912), and started his career as a naval cadet (1914), taking part, during the First World War, in the battles of Falkland Islands and Jutland. At the end of the war he resigned with the rank of Lieutenant, and took up studies of physics under Lord Rutherford at Cambridge. In the spring of 1933 they not only confirmed Anderson's discovery of the positive electron, but also demonstrated the existence of "showers" of positive and negative electrons, both in approximately equal numbers. This fact and the knowledge that positive particles (positrons) do not normally exist as normal constituents of matter on the earth, formed the basis of their conception that gamma rays can transform into two material particles (positrons and electrons), plus a certain amount of kinetic energy - a phenomenon usually called pair production . The reverse process - a collision between a positron and an electron in which both are transformed into gamma radiation, so-called

Blackett was awarded the OM , the CH , and in the Nobel Prize for Physics, for his investigation of cosmic rays undertaken at Manchester using his invention of the counter-controlled cloud chamber , confirming the existence of the positron and discovering the now instantly recogniseable opposing spiral traces of positron/electron pair production. This work and that on annihilation radiation made him one of the first and leading experts on anti-matter During World War 2 , Blackett was instrumental in founding the field of study known as Operations research , which improved the survival odds of convoys , among other successes.
