Experimental Evaluation of the Radiation Protection Afforded by Typical Oak Ridge Homes Against Distributed Sources
Report regarding experiments made to determine the fallout-radiation protection offered by several typical homes in the Oak Ridge, Tennessee, area.
Analyses of Coals in the United States with Descriptions of Mine and Field Samples Collected between July 1, 1904 and June 30, 1910: Part 1. -- Analyses
From Significance and value of Analyses of Coal: "The analyses published in this report cover samples of coal collected in many different parts of the country with unusual care by experiences men, in such manner as to make them representative of extensive beds of coal."
Analyses of Coals in the United States with Descriptions of Mine and Field Samples Collected between July 1, 1904 and June 30, 1910 Part 2. Descriptions of Samples
From Introduction: "This volume contains the descriptions of the samples whose analyses are published in the preceding volume, Part I of this bulletin. The descriptions have been compiled from the notebooks of the persons who collected the samples, have been condensed from accounts given in published reports of the United States Geological Survey, or have furnished by the collection themselves. Inasmuch as the descriptions represent the work of many persons during a period of six years, and inasmuch as they were recorded under widely differing conditions, they necessarily vary in fullness detail."
Estimate of Known Recoverable Reserves and the Preparation and Carbonizing Properties of Coking Coal in Anderson County, Tennessee
Report issued by the Bureau of Mines over investigations of coking coal reserves of Anderson County, Tennessee. Testing to determine suitability for producing metallurgical coke is also presented. This report includes tables, maps, photographs, and illustrations.

Corrosion Investigations of Redox Pilot Plant Equipment at Oak Ridge National Laboratories
The following report is based on the observations made during a visit to the Oak Ride National Laboratories of their Redox Pilot Plant equipment.
Fast-Neutron and Gamma Spectrum and Dose in Beryllium Oxide
This report follows a series of tests run to determine the shielding properties of beryllium oxide, conducted at the Battelle Lid-Tank Shielding Facility. Neutron and gamma penetrations through and behind beryllium oxide were measured.
Operating Process for Canning of X-10 Slugs
The following report describes the operation process of canning uranium X-10 slugs.
Analyses of Decay Curves of Irradiated Plastics
The following report covers the results of a general program that was conducted at the Oak Ridge National Laboratory to investigate the effects on plastic materials of exposure to radiation in the pile. In the investigation, several plastics were irradiated, and on removal from the pile, their rates of decay were determined by measurement of gamma activity in an ionization chamber.
Proceedings of the Sixth Tripartite Instrumentation Conference, Part 3: System and Component Reliability
Collection of papers presented during the third session (Tuesday, April 21, 1959) at the 6th Tripartite Instrumentation Conference. The five papers describe reliability, maintenance, and failure of electronic equipment and other components in reactors at Chalk River (Canada), Harwell (U.K.), and Oak Ridge (U.S.).
A Preliminary Survey of Radioactive Constituents in Rainwater at ORNL
Technical report surveying radio-chemical analyses by ORNL's Analytical Chemistry Division and Health-Physics Division of large volumes of rainwater for plutonium, uranium, and fission products. Overall, carrying efficiencies for Al(OH)3 scavenging of rainwater were determined for these elements, as well as for Pu and U. [From Abstract, Introduction]
Pathogenesis and Regeneration of Radiation Induced Bone Marrow Injury, and Therapeutic Implications
This report reviews aspects of experimental and clinical research performed in the investigation on the pathogenesis and recovery of bone marrow injury caused by total body irradiation.
