A Criterion For Vacuum Sparking Designed to Include Both R. F. and D. C.

Description: An empirical relation is presented which represents a boundary between no vacuum sparking and possible vacuum sparking. Metal electrodes and r.f. or d.c. voltages are used. The criterion fits several orders of surface gradient, voltage, gap, and frequency. Current due to field emission is considered necessary for sparking but in addition, energetic particles are required to initiate a cascade process which increases the field emission currents to the point of sparking. An elementary cascade pro… more

Collision Mechanics and Energy Angle Nomography

Description: The general reaction of interest in nuclear physics is that due to N1 colliding with N2 and producing N3 and N4 with reaction energy Q. It is shown how the energies of N3 and N4 can be obrtained at any angle from a nomograph simply constructed of semicircles.

The Scattering Constant for Doubly Charged Particles in Nuclear Emulsion

Description: "An experiment in which a nuclear emulsion stack of 25 Ilford G-5 emulsion pellicles were exposed to 925-Mev He^4 nuclei is described. The tracks of the He nuclei entering the stack were followed in the stack until they interacted or stopped. From the data the scattering constants for He^4 and He^3 were calculated."
