In order to investigate this phenomenon, a centrifuge with even higher speeds was needed, and thus the ultracentrifuge was created to apply the theory of sedimentation-diffusion.

The kinds of information that can be obtained from an analytical ultracentrifuge include the gross shape of macromolecules, the conformational changes in macromolecules, and size distributions of macromolecular samples.
23.
Soon after, research on thermal diffusion in gases followed, as did ultracentrifuge concepts, cathode dispersion, excitation of gases by using energetic ions and research on molecular beams.
24.
Even after nearly two decades, the work of Steenbeck and Zippe in the development of ultracentrifuges ( Zippe-type centrifuges ) was recognized in the West as very advanced.

The gas-ultracentrifuge developed at AMOLF ( under Jacob Kistemaker ) provided a base for the commercial enrichment of Uranium at the today well-known company of URENCO in Almelo.
26.
Project Ciclone aimed at the development of uranium enrichment technology through the ultracentrifuge method, while Project Remo sought to create a nuclear reactor for a small naval vessel such as a submarine.
27.
He investigated methods to generate extremely high angular velocities, and found that suitably placed air-jets can be used to spin tops at very high speeds-this technique was later used to construct ultracentrifuges.
28.
And can I then use the ultracentrifuge for almost-suspended animation by placing some fresh food into it, spin it for 5 years, and retrieve the food to find it still warm and hot?
29.
Jesse Beams from the University of Virginia filed some of the earliest active magnetic bearing patents during World War II . The patents dealt with ultracentrifuges intended for the enrichment of isotopes of elements needed for the Manhattan Project.
30.
The buildings, designed in the early 1950s, were never intended for the kind of work the centers do now, which requires a vast array of electronic and other equipment like radioisotopes, ultracentrifuges and electropheresis machines that overwhelm the electrical system.
