The Admittance and Transfer Functions of Solid Core Electromagnets

Description: The admittance and transfer functions of large, solidcore electromagnets were determined. The effects of eddy currents and hysteresis were considered in deriving the functions. The study was concerned with the type of magnet employed in nuclear physics research which requires very precise regulation of the magnetic field. The study originated during the design of an analyzing magnet regulator for the ORNL 63-inch cyclotron. (W.D.M.)

Analysis of Current Distribution in Electrolytic Cells With Flowing Mercury Cathodes

Description: An idealized model is postulated embodying the essential features of industrial caustic-chlorine cells with horizontal flowing-mercury cathodes. This model is examined in detail, and relations expressing the local anode potential, cathode potential, and ohmic potential drop in the electrolyte in terms of local current density and other parameters are established. These relations are combined to give a system of equations relating current density at any location along the cell to applied total p… more

The Angular Distribution of Fission Fragments From the Fast Neutron-Induced Fission of U-234

Description: Submitted to Univ. of Tennessee, Knoxville. The fast neutron-induced fission cross section of U/sup 234/ was measured from threshold to 4-Mev neutron energy. A maximum of 1.26 barns was found at 850 kev followed by a minimum of 1.10 barns at 8050 kev. The angular ani-sotropy of the fragment distribution was measured for neutron energies from 400 kev to 4 Mev. Extrema in the ratio sigma /sub f//( sigma /sub f(90 deg ) were found at 500, 850, and 1050 kev; the distribution at 500 kev showing a ma… more

Antiproton-Proton Cross Sections at 1.0, 1.25, and 2.0 BeV

Description: The antiproton--proton interaction was studied at three energies, 2.0, 1.25, and 0.98 Bev. Antiprotons produced internally in the Revatron and channeled externally by a system of bending magnets and quadrupoles were selected from background particles by using a gas Cherenkov counter and scintillation counters. At the two lower energies, an electrostatic-magnetic velocity spectrometer was used to reject background particles. A liquidhydrogen target was completely surrounded by scintillation coun… more

Atomic Capture of $mu$$sup -$ Mesons in Chemical Compounds and The "Fermiteller Z Law"

Description: Experimental studies of the relative atomic mu --meson capture probabilities in the constituents of chemical compounds are described. Fermi and Teller had predicted that the atomic-capture probability is proportional to the nuclear charge of the atomic species weighted by its atomic concentration. This is sometimes referred to as the Fermi-Teller Z law.'' Previous experiments indicated no clear systematics to this capture process, and there are conflicts between the results of several measureme… more

THE CARRIER-RECOMBINATION BEHAVIOR AND ANNEALING PROPERTIES OF RADIATION- INDUCED RECOMBINATION CENTERS IN GERMANIUM

Description: Carrier recombination and annealing of radioinduced recombination centers were investigated for both n- and ptype Ge. The experimental results are explained by a model in which recombination occurs at 0.36 ev above the valence band in gamma -irradiated, n-type Ge; the position of this level is shifted slightly downward for neutron-irradiated Ge. Trapping levels occur in As-doped Ge (at 0.17 ev above the valence band) which are not present in Sb-doped Ge. For p-type Ge, an energy level present i… more
