Mass spectrometer, 1954
Mass spectrometer. Researchers adjusting the controls of a mass spectrometer. This is an all-metal demountable mass spectrometer. Mass spectroscopy is the use of strong magnetic and electric fields to ionise samples and separate them by mass and charge. This allows the chemical composition of the samples to be identified. Photographed in 1949, in the Physics Division of the National Physical Laboratory, Teddington, UK

17"x15" (43x38cm) Premium Frame
FSC real wood frame with double mounted 10x8 print. Double mounted with white conservation mountboard. Frame moulding comprises stained composite natural wood veneers (Finger Jointed Pine) 39mm wide by 21mm thick. Archival quality Fujifilm CA photo paper mounted onto 1mm card. Overall outside dimensions are 17x15 inches (431x381mm). Rear features Framing tape to cover staples, 50mm Hanger plate, cork bumpers. Glazed with durable thick 2mm Acrylic to provide a virtually unbreakable glass-like finish. Acrylic Glass is far safer, more flexible and much lighter than typical mineral glass. Moreover, its higher translucency makes it a perfect carrier for photo prints. Acrylic allows a little more light to penetrate the surface than conventional glass and absorbs UV rays so that the image and the picture quality doesn't suffer under direct sunlight even after many years. Easily cleaned with a damp cloth. Please note that, to prevent the paper falling through the mount window and to prevent cropping of the original artwork, the visible print may be slightly smaller to allow the paper to be securely attached to the mount without any white edging showing and to match the aspect ratio of the original artwork.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from 1954 showcases the intricate world of scientific research. In this image, a group of dedicated researchers can be seen adjusting the controls of an all-metal demountable mass spectrometer at the Physics Division of the National Physical Laboratory in Teddington, UK. The mass spectrometer is a powerful tool that utilizes magnetic and electric fields to ionize samples and separate them based on their mass and charge. With intense focus etched across their faces, these brilliant minds are engaged in unraveling the mysteries hidden within various chemical compositions. By analyzing the resulting spectra, they aim to identify and understand complex substances at a molecular level. This groundbreaking technique has revolutionized analytical chemistry by providing invaluable insights into countless scientific endeavors. Stepping back in time to 1949, we witness a pivotal moment in history as these European scientists harness electricity and magnetism to unlock new realms of knowledge. Amongst them stands an English chemist, embodying both determination and curiosity as he delves deep into his experiment. This photograph not only captures a significant milestone in technological advancement but also serves as a testament to human ingenuity. It symbolizes our unyielding quest for discovery and our relentless pursuit of understanding the world around us. As we gaze upon this remarkable snapshot frozen in time, we are reminded of how far we have come while simultaneously fueling our anticipation for what lies ahead on humanity's ever-evolving scientific journey.
