Guest Artist: The World Renowned CANTOR SHABTAk ACKERMAN Will Chant The Liturgy set up by the interaction of neutrons with the accepted atomic fuel, uranium or pluto- nium. Control is maintained by the mechanical and manual opera- tion of rods which under actual conditions are made of mate- rials which absorb some of the neutrons. By moving these rods in and out of the reactor the level of nuclear energy being generated may be controlled. The simulator, already in operation, demonstrates the various degrees by which an actual reactor, under similar conditions, can release desired amounts. of energy. The more complex problems of temperature control, heat energy transfer and the actual electrical power production cannot be studied by this sim- ulator. This would require a very complex and expensive simulator, or a reactor itself. The department of nuclear sciences, Israel's only source for training atomic engineers, is headed by Prof. Nathan Rosen. efriple gsrael invites all who are contemplating mem- bership in a Reform or Liberal congrega- tion to visit us in our air-conditioned Sanc- tuary, and experience the inspiration of our SABBATH EVE SERVICES Every Friday Night, at 8:30 You are also invited to inquire by mail, telephone or in person about our (b) Hebrew (a) Religious School (d) Bar (c) Confirmation School (e) Youth Mitzvah, Bas Mitzvah (f) Young Adult Group, Activities Young Marrieds Group, Sisterhood and Men's Club (9) Adult Educa- tion.
