Adaptation of a Commercial Counter X-Ray Diffractometer for Investigations to 3000°C

Description: The rapid advances in many technologically important areas have not only served to accentuate the increased demands for high temperature metals and ceramics but have necessitated a more through knowledge of their physical properties when exposed to high temperature service. Toward this latter end, the use of X-ray diffraction has proved an invaluable tool in providing data of regions of thermal stability, expansion coefficients, solid solubility limits, and phase transformations by direct exami… more

Alternating Gradient Magnets

Description: The angle by which a magnet deflects the trajectory of a particle in the x-z plane is proportional to the integral [integral not transcribed] taken over the trajectory wherever B≠0. Alternating gradient focusing is achieved by designing magnets so that I=I(x) varies linearly with x over a suitable x interval. Usually this is done by shaping the poles to give a linear variation of By with x while keeping the length of the magnet constant for different x. Certain advantaged may be gained by varyi… more

Calculation of Average Flux in Moderator of Water Lattices by Means of a Relaxation Method

Description: The following report concerns the application of a relaxation mesh method for the determination of the average flux within the moderator of a light water moderated, 1.027 per cent U-235, hexagonal lattice with a volume ratio (V_H2O + V_Al)/V_Uranium of 4:1. It was hoped that the calculation would enable one to determine any differences in flux which might result from the fact that the unit cell is a hexagon instead of a cylinder. Because we were primarily interested in the effect due to geometr… more

Determination of the Single Interstitial Migration Energy From Stored Energy and Thermal Resistivity Changes in Irradiated Graphite

Description: The model used to evaluate the single interstitial migration energy from property changes due to interstitials is extended to account for vacancy contributions. The annealing function obtained can be used to determine the relative contributions of the defects and is sufficiently sensitive to distinguish vacancy effects that are an order of magnitude less than interstitial effects. Application of the model to stored energy and thermal resistivity data yields the same values of the activation ene… more

Diffraction Studies of Possible Ordering in α-brass

Description: Recently, there has been some evidence to point to possible ordering in the α-brasses. Masumoto et al. have concluded from their specific heat measurements that there is a possibility of ordering in the α-brasses. In particular they observed an anomaly in the specific heat curves for the α-brasses for the temperature range from 200 to 260°C and explained these results upon the basis of a change in local or short range order in α-brasses at these temperatures. In connection with the study of rad… more

Effects of Low Levels of X-Rays and Irradiation from C14 and H3 on Cell Population Kinetics in the Root Tip of Tradescantia

Description: Reciprocal labelling in double-labelling experiments with H3- and C14- thymidine showed that when H3- thymidine (1μc/ml for 0.5 hr) was given first in the labelling sequence followed by a 4 hr interval before the C14- thymidine treatment, that passage of cells into and out of DNA synthesis was normal. When C14 was first in the sequence, the rate at which cells entered DNA synthesis was decreased. This was attributed to a radiation effect produced by the β-rays from the C14. The rate at which ce… more

Electromotive Force of Transfer Systems Containing Membranes

Description: Report describes a few experiments designed to test the analysis of some systems where chemical energy can be converted to electric energy. From Abstract: "If a chemocouple is defined as an isothermal closed circuit, composed of two or more homogeneous ionic aqueous phases separated by two or more barriers of different sets of ionic transport numbers, we find that a spontaneous electric current flows in the closed circuit."

Four Short Articles on Genetics of Maize

Description: Studies carried on since 1956 indicate that the prosaic breeding procedure of sibbing among the most perennial segregates in the hybrid of 4n maize x 4n perennial teosinte quickly restores perennialism to 50% maize tetraploids through increasing the expression of the rhizomatous habit under selection pressure. Similarly, only two generations of selection at the 75% maize level have resulted in a progressive recovery of the perennial expressive. A high degree of maize-likeness therefore appears … more

Fundamentals of Vacuum Technology

Description: Vacuum technology is germaine to and is utilized in an extroardinarily widespread scope of the scientific disciplines. From the medical technician freeze drying hog cholera vaccine to the solid state physicist studying thin film phenomena, vacuum technology is an important auxiliary. When one visits the NASA center at Langley and sees the clustered space environmental chambers, looking like a field of grotesque mushrooms, one realizes that vacuum technology is a vital adjunct in this most recen… more

Hot-Atom Chemistry of the Solid StateL its History, Current Status and Future Prospects viewed in Relation to the Planning of Chemical Research Programs for New Scientific Establishments Centered about a Research Reactor

Description: The History, Current Significance and Status of the Field Hot atom chemistry, like many other fields of scientific research, can trace its origin to a single experiment, that of Szilard and Chalmers, performed in 1934. This is true even though recoil effects had been known and used for a long time. Almost immediately Szilard and Chalmers put their discovery to practical use: they employed the recoil effect in ethyl iodide as a neutron detector and observed the γ,n reaction in beryllium. The ing… more

The Hydrolysis of Orosomucoid with Trypsin

Description: In recent years a good deal of understanding about the structure of the α-acid glycoprotein of human plasma (orosomucoid) has been obtained. Since the isolation of the protein in an apparently pure state, it has been shown to have a molecular weight of approximately 45000 and to be made up of about 40% carbohydrate and 60% polypeptide. The latter apparently is in the form of a single polypeptide chain. The carbohydrate, on the other hand, has been shown to have at least 16 non-reducing chain en… more

Linkage in Autotetraploids and Allotetraploids of Zea

Description: Studies of linkage in polyploids have been exceedingly rare. Only three previous studies of linkage in autotetraploid maize have been reported. Murray (1944), in a limited analysis of crossing over among 4 linked markers in chromosome 2, found varying degree of difference in linkage values between 2n and 4n maize in the three interposed segments. Dempsey (1956) found linkage values wx - c region of chromosome 9 to correspond closely between autotetraploid and diploid maize. More recently Welch … more
