...FW Clarke suggested the evolution of one element from another. In 1904 Sir JJ Thomson asserted that as the universe gets older elements of higher and higher atomic weight may be expected to appear. Finally, by showing tlmt many elements may be made to evolve helium and all elements identical corpuscles... | |
