Electrical Properties of the Tungsten Bronzes

Description: From abstract: "The electrical resistivity of NaxWO3, LixWO3, and KxWO3 has been measured at 300°K. The range of x-values was 0.25 < x < 0.9. All resistivities were characteristic of a metal and lie on a single curve. An extrapolation of the conductivity curve to zero conductivity indicated that the tungsten bronzes should be semiconductors for x < 0.25. The resistivities that have been measured for tungsten bronzes with x < 0.25 showed semiconducting behavior. The resistivity of LixWO3 exhibit… more

Electromotive Force of Transfer Systems Containing Membranes

Description: Report describes a few experiments designed to test the analysis of some systems where chemical energy can be converted to electric energy. From Abstract: "If a chemocouple is defined as an isothermal closed circuit, composed of two or more homogeneous ionic aqueous phases separated by two or more barriers of different sets of ionic transport numbers, we find that a spontaneous electric current flows in the closed circuit."

Fast Neutron Flux Measurements and Analysis in SM-1 and PM-2A Core and Vessel Mockups

Description: Abstract: This technical report contains a summary of experimental and analytical work performed on cold clean SM-1 Core II with special components and PM-2A Core I each with thermal shield and vessel mockups. The purpose of this work was to define the neutron intensity and spectra to which the pressure vessels are subjected in order to assess the effect of irradiation on the vessel lifetimes. The radial distributions of the energy dependent neutron flux per unit power in the core and vessel m… more

Fission Fragment Energy Deposition Efficiency

Description: Technical report describing how to estimate the energy deposition efficiency of the kinetic energy of recoiling fragments from nuclear fission in a chemically reacting system. Since it is not always possible to directly measure the deposition the report describes how to estimate through the aid of fission fragment range data.

Hazards Report for SM-1 Core II With the SM-1 Core II With the Silver-Cadmium-Indium Control Rod Absorber Section

Description: Abstract: In the March-April 1962 shutdown of SM-1 Core II, the SM-28 element will be re-inserted in SM-1 Core II and an SM-1 Core I element will be removed. An SM-1 Core II europium absorber will be replaced by a Ag-Cd-In absorber, and surveillance specimens will be inserted above the core support structure. Analysis of these changes concludes that re-insertion of the SM-2B stationary element and insertion of surveillance specimens do not affect hazards potential previously defined for SM-1.… more

The Mass Spectra of Some Volatile Hydrides

Description: From abstract: "The hydrides of group VB an VB elements, except CH4 and NH3, have been prepared and, except for PbH4 and BiH3, their mass spectra studied. Fragmentation patterns and appearance potentials of the positive ions from these hydrides are reported. The ions have been tested for excess kinetic energy and this energy was found to be negligible. The average M-H bond energies and the ΔHf° obtained from appearance potential data agree well with values obtained by other methods. Evidence is… more

On Certain Finite Difference Schemes for the Equations of Hydrodynammics

Description: "We will consider two finite difference schemes for the solution of the Navier-Stokes equations in one space dimension. The first is a method used by Lax and Wendroff. The second method is based on an approximate solution of the centered, implicit difference equations. Since this approximate solution is obtained by successive substitutions, we will refer to this second method as an iterative method."

On the Structure of Sperm Whale Myoglobin. [Part] 1, The Amino Acid Composition and Terminal Groups of the Chromatographically Purified Protein

Description: The report objective is to establish the amino acid composition of sperm whale myoglobin. From Summary: "The homoprotein that comprises 96% by weight of the protein present in crystalline sperm whale myoglobin may be received into at least five components by chromatography on the carboxylic resin IRC-50."
