[The audience for the debate]

Description: Photograph of the audience for the debate. The photo depicts a row of people in the audience. In the foreground are three women then there is a young child bent over with his elbow presumably on his knees while his hands folded and two of his fingers pointing up at his nose. Next to the child is three men all looking toward the debate. In the background, there is a cameraman sitting in a seat that is lifted into the air. The cameraman is looking through the viewer of the camera.

Bond Energies, Valence State Energies And Resonance¹,²

Description: Previous attempts to interpret chemical structure in terms of x-electron resonance have been recently criticized. A reinterpretation of the lengths of the C-C bonds in terms of orbital radii has not revealed any effects of x-electron resonance in the ground states of classical molecules such as 1, 3-butadiene, methyl acetylene, etc. Even in a non-classical molecule such as benzene, resonance shortening of the CC bond is only in terms of the strengths of the hybrid orbitals. If the lengths and f… more

The Boron-Carbon System. Quarterly Report No. 3, November 1, 1960-January 31, 1961

Description: A definitive investigation of the boron-carbon equilibrium system is being made by x-ray diffraction, metallographic, and thermal analytical techniques. On the basis of metallogaphic and x-ray-diffraction studies it is concluded that boron carbide has a range of solubility from approximately 10 to 20 at.% carbon at 1500 to 2000 deg C. The melting point of the carbide-graphite eutectic was established as 2325 to 2350 deg C. No reversible allotropy of the beta -rhombohedral structure was observed… more

Bremsstrahlung

Description: An electron can suffer a very large acceleration in passing through the Coulomb field of a nucleus, and in this interaction the radiant energy (photons) lost by the electrons is called bremsstrahlung (also, bremsstrahlung sometimes designates the interaction itself). If an electron whose total energy [formula] traverses matter of atomic number Z, the electron loses energy chiefly by bremsstrahlung. This case is considered here.

BUILDUP OF Cf$sup 252$ AND INTERMEDIATE ISOTOPES FROM Cm$sup 244$ IN A HIGH FLUX

Description: The amount of Cf/sup 252/ and intermediate isotopes which could be made from Cm/sup 244/ in a reactor with high neutron flux was calculated. The variations of different isotopes formed in the bombardment as a function of time are described by a series of linear differential equations. The cross sections used were either weighed measured values or values estimated from the amounts of curium and californium isotopes formed in irradiations of heavy elements. The number of atoms of heavy curium iso… more

A Condenser for the Vacuum Distillation of Metals

Description: A condenser, suitable for use in the distillation of metals was designed. The temperature of the condensing surface was established by controlling the pressure over boiling NaK-78 contained within the condenser. Performance was evaluated in test units in which pure bismuth was distilled as the test metal. (auth)

A CONTRIBUTION TO THE STUDY OF THE REDUCTION OF UF$sub 4$ TO URANIUM METAL

Description: Reduction of small charges of uranium tetrafluoride with magnesium proved to be successful. By hand-tamping of UF/sub 4/-- Mg blend, tap densities ranglng between3.1 and 3.4 g/cc were obtained. The reduction yields for these densities ranged from 72.79 to 93.71%. In the case of machinecompacted UF4-- Mg blend having tap densities from 3.58 to 3.68 g/cc, reduction yields were higher, ranging between 91.45 and 97.2%. Machine-compacted blends gave much more uniform temperature distribution curves … more

Development of Injection Casting Methods and Equipment. Part Iii. Development of Fuel Pin Processing Methods and Equipment. Part Iv. Assembly, Welding, and Leak Testing Ebr-Ii Fuel Rods. Part v. Dodium Bonding and Bond Testing Ebr-Ii Fu

Description: The development of remote fabrication methods and equipment in which the cooling periods, chemical fission product separation, and complete decontamination of the fuel is not required is discussed. A process designed around precision casting in multiple, glass molds served as a basis for design of refabrication equipment. The injection casting process is used. Procedures and equipment were developed for the remote manufacture of right-cylindrical, uranium alloy fuel pins from the castings. Asse… more
