80" Chamber - Low Energy Beams

Description: One of the major, as well as first, decisions which must be taken on a large chamber is to decide on the direction of the magnetic field, i.e., vertical or horizontal. Either alternative has advantages and disadvantages ad it is the intention of this note to discuss these features.

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

Autoradiographic Study on the Origin and Fate of Small Lymphoid Cells in the Dog Bone Marrow: Effect of Femoral Artery Clamping During in Vivo Availability of Thymidine-H

Description: Mammalian bone marrow contains a considerable number of small lymphoid cells (small lymphocytes and small lymphocyte-like cells). The total number of these cells (50,000 to 500,000 per mm3) depends on species, age and other factors. The origin, function and fate of these cells remain obscure in many respects. In particular, it has not been shown beyond doubt, if and to what extent small lymphoid cells enter the bone marrow via the blood stream or if their origin is in part or entirely within th… more

Bubble Chamber Vacuum System

Description: The vacuum system for the bubble chamber must evacuate rapidly a volume of approximately 500 cubic feet and eliminate the outgassing of a surface area of approximately 50,000 square inches. The backstreaming of oil from the diffusion pump must be kept to an absolute minimum to prevent oil films forming on the window. The vacuum system must also provide the protection against liquid nitrogen and hydrogen/leaks to prevent pressure buildup.

The Cellular Differences Between Acute and Chronic Neutron and Gamma Ray Irradiation in Mice

Description: It has been well established that even small doses of radiation will shorten life expectancy of animals, and that in general the causes of death are the same for the irradiated as for the normal animals. When x or γ rays are compared with neutrons in their ability to shorten the life span, some interesting differences appear. All available data from different laboratories on the shortening of the life span by x or γ on the one hand and neutrons on the other, have been compared. In spite of the … more

The Effects of 2.0 BeV Protons in Mice

Description: The Brookhaven proton synchrotron (Cosmotron) is capable of accelerating protons to energies as high as 3.0 BeV. The biologic effects of particle bombardment at these energies have not been investigated but are of considerable radiobiologic interest. In addition, particle beams have long been discussed with regard to their potential usefulness in medical therapy, and actual clinical applications have been made, although at lower particle energies. Recent rapid advances in space technology have … 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."

High Burn-up Tests on U-Al Fuel Elements

Description: The desired neutron spectrum for the High Flux Beam Reactor under construction at BNL requires use of U-Al fuel elements with more then 30 wt% U235 in the meat. The operating cycle of this reactor requires a minimum burn-up of 20%, and preferably 40% of the uranium in the element.

Past Decimal Counting with Binary-Decimal Logic

Description: Speed limits of decimal counting schemes based on binary-to-decimal conversion are considered. A simple "1-2-4-8" decimal logic is described, which is inherently as fast as the basic bistable. A decade for counting in 100-200 Mc/sec range, based on this logic and the tunnel diode-transistor bistable, is presented.

Progressive Epithelial Dysplasia in Mouse Skin Irradiated with 10 MeV Protons

Description: It has been previously reported that within twenty days following bombardment of mice 10 MeV protons (as well as with 20 MeV deuterons and 40 MeV alpha particles) that atypical epithelial hyperplasia developed without underlying recognizable vascular or collagen alterations as predisposing factors. The source of these monoenergetic accelerator-produced heavy ionizing particles was the 60-inch cyclotron of the Brookhaven National Laboratory. The technique employed utilized a variable-thickness f… more

Studies of the Binding of Insulin to a Muscle Cell Membrane Preparation

Description: Recent studies suggest that the primary action of insulin is on the permeability of cell membranes. This idea may account for the effects of the hormone in broken cell preparations as well as in tissue preparations with intact cells if the concept of the cell membrane is broadened to include endoplasmic reticular extensions and the membranes of subcellular organelles. Following on the initial demonstration that insulin was bound to muscle and the elucidation of the structure of insulin, evidenc… more

Studies of the Localization, Physiochemical Properties, and Action of Phycocyanin in Anacystis Nidulans

Description: The blue-green algae, classed as primitive monerans, represent the lowest level of organization known to possess a higher plant type of photosynthesis. The role in photosynthesis of the phycocyanin in these organisms is particularly interesting from the point of view of ultrastructural biochemistry. It has been shown repeatedly that despite the primacy normally assigned to chlorophyll, the light absorbed by phycocyanin is used more efficiently for photosynthesis (equated with photosynthetic oxy… more

Total Neutron Average Cross Sections in the keV Region and the Optical Model

Description: Many workers have recently attempted to evaluate the P-wave strength function from a measurement of average capture cross sections or average total cross sections in the kiloelectron volt region. The primary interest of these measurements has been to determine the strength of the spin-orbit potential in the optical model. In view of the interest in determining the size of the spin-orbit coupling and in view of the considerable disagreement group has undertaken to measure the average total neutr… more
