20 Dec 2016 History and photos of the abandoned Westinghouse Atom Smasher, in Forest Hills, PA.

Westinghouse Atom Smasher The five million volt van de Graaff generator represents the first large-scale program in nuclear physics established in industry. Constructed by the Westinghouse Electric Corporation in 1937, it made possible precise measurements of nuclear reactions and provided valuable research experience for the company's pioneering work in nuclear power.

Abstract. ABB TRC is completing the design and manufacturing of 8 Nov 2015 [Note to self: get apartment with sixty foot ceilings.] That is the Westinghouse atom smasher.

The atom smasher structure is the very last remaining vestige of all that transpired at the Westinghouse Research Laboratories, but today it is in an extremely vulnerable and threatened condition. Many of us from Forest Hills and Chalfant were stunned and dismayed when on January 20, 2015, the atom smasher, having stood steadfastly for nearly 80 years, was torn down.

The Westinghouse Atom Smasher was a 5 MeV Van de Graaff electrostatic nuclear accelerator operated by the Westinghouse Electric Corporation at their Research Laboratories in Forest Hills, Pennsylvania. It was instrumental in the development in practical applications of nuclear science for energy production. In particular, it was used in 1940 to discover the photofission of uranium and thorium. It was the first industrial Van de Graaff generator in the world, and marked the beginning of nuclear r Built by the Westinghouse Electric Corporation in 1937, “the atom smasher was the centerpiece of the first large-scale program in nuclear physics established in industry,” according to Institute of As nuclear physics was incipient and spreading worldwide, Westinghouse could not resist its venture with the atom smasher of the Van de Graaf kind [5].

Built in 1937, the Westinghouse Atom Smasher in Forest Hills, PA (the large, bulb-shaped structure on the right) paved the way for researching nonmilitary uses for nuclear energy. It was mothballed in 1958, and when I photographed it in 2013 there was hope to preserve the structure as part of a school. Two years later, however, it was torn down.

The tower, named the Atom Smasher, is 65 feet tall, 30 feet in diameter, and has a spectacular history. 2015-09-16 The Westinghouse atom smasher is an iconic relic from the very dawn of the atomic age.
