Oliphant left the Cavendish Laboratory in 1937 to become the Poynting Professor of Physics at the University of Birmingham. Energy had been liberated from inside the nucleus, and he realised that this was a result of nuclear fusion. He also discovered that when they reacted with each other, the particles that were released had far more energy than they started with. He discovered the respective nuclei of helium-3 (helions) and of tritium (tritons).
There, he used a particle accelerator to fire heavy hydrogen nuclei ( deuterons) at various targets. He was awarded an 1851 Exhibition Scholarship in 1927 on the strength of the research he had done on mercury, and went to England, where he studied under Sir Ernest Rutherford at the University of Cambridge's Cavendish Laboratory.
