Martin Wilson from Oxford Instruments (left) gave the second John Adams Memorial Lecture at CERN on 27 November. The theme of the lecture was 'Accelerators and superconductivity : a marriage of convenience' and Martin Wilson reviewed the long, hard road to the present applications of superconductivity, in which accelerator Laboratories played such an important part. While at the Rutherford Laboratory, Wilson helped develop the famous Rutherford cable. In addition to the big hadron machines, Martin Wilson cited widespread applications in nuclear magnetic resonance scanners and the promising development of tiny electron synchrotrons for silicon chip lithography.
