Description


A bubble chamber is a vessel filled with a superheated transparent liquid (most often liquid hydrogen) used to detect electrically charged particles moving through it. It was invented in 1952 by Donald A. Glaser, for which he was awarded the 1960 Nobel Prize in Physics. Supposedly, Glaser was inspired by the bubbles in a glass of beer; however, in a 2006 talk, he refuted this story, although saying that while beer was not the inspiration for the bubble chamber, he did experiments using beer to fill early prototypes. While bubble chambers were extensively used in the past, they have now mostly been supplanted by wire chambers and spark chambers. Notable bubble chambers include the Big European Bubble Chamber (BEBC) and Gargamelle. ______________________________________________ Une chambre à bulles est un récipient rempli d'un liquide transparent surchauffé (le plus souvent de l'hydrogène liquide) utilisé pour détecter les particules chargées électriquement qui s'y déplacent. Il a été inventé en 1952 par Donald A. Glaser, pour lequel il a reçu le prix Nobel de physique de 1960. Soi-disant, Glaser a été inspiré par les bulles dans un verre de bière; Cependant, lors d'une conférence en 2006, il réfuta cette histoire, bien qu'il fît des expériences utilisant de la bière pour remplir les premiers prototypes, bien que la bière ne fût pas l'inspiration de la chambre à bulles. Bien que les chambres à bulles aient été largement utilisées dans le passé, elles ont maintenant été remplacées par des chambres à fils et des chambres à étincelles. Parmi les chambres à bulles notables figurent la Grande chambre à bulles européenne (BEBC) et Gargamelle.
