Oxidation of Metals Subjected to a Linear Temperature Increase: Cubic and Logarithmic Laws

Description: The total amount of oxidation which occurs up to a given time when a metal is subjected to a continuously increasing temperature has been studied by Fasseli and coworkers. A constant rate of increase as well as the linear and parabolic oxidation laws were assumed. The present report extends the analysis to include to the cubic and logarithmic growth laws. The notation for the nth order exponential integral functions which is used here simplifies the equations and the calculations.

A Proposal For Reducing Impurities in a Stabilized Pinched Discharge

Description: It is proposed to reduce the initial wall hangup and consequent plasma contamination of a stabilized pinched discharge by reducing the Bz pressure difference across the current sheath to nearly zero at early times. Two methods for accomplishing this are proposed, both involving multistage programming of the Bz system.

Taylor Instability in Shock Acceleration of Compressible Fluids

Description: The initial growth of irregularities on an interface between two compressible fluids is studied for impulsive (i.e., shock) acceleration. It was found that the ultimate rate of growth is roughly the same as that given by the incompressible theory, if the initial compression of the irregularities and of the fluids is taken into account.

Uranium Hydrogeochemical and Stream Sediment Reconnaissance Data Release for the Torrington NTMS Quadrangle, Wyoming, Including Concentrations of Forty-Two Additional Elements

Description: From introduction: This report contains data collected during a geochemical survey for uranium in the Torrington National Topographic Map Series (NTMS) quadrangle of east-central Wyoming (Fig. 1) by the Los Alamos Scientific Laboratory (LASL) as part of the nationwide Hydrogeochemical and Stream Sediment Reconnaissance (HSSR).
