Experimental investigation of effects of simulated nacelles and wing-root freedoms on supersonic flutter characteristics of a cambered, modified, swept, tapered wing

Description: Report presenting an investigation to determine the effects of simulated engine nacelles and wing-root freedoms on the flutter characteristics of a cambered, modified, swept, tapered, semispan wing through a range of Mach numbers. Wings were tested with and without nacelles and with the model restrained, free to roll, and free to translate in the vertical direction. Results regarding the effect of nacelles, flutter boundary, and effect of wing-mount freedom are provided.

Radiative Capture of Protons in Ne²⁰

Description: Abstract: "A preliminary measurement of the Ne²⁰(p,γ)Na²¹ reaction cross section has been made. Targets were prepared by bombarding aluminum targets with neon ions. The neon concentration in the target was determined by elastic scattering of 1.5-Mev-protons. The yield of positrons from the reaction Ne²⁰(p,γ)Na²¹(β)Ne²¹ was identified by the 23-second half life of Na²¹."
