Temperature Dependence of Tafel Slope in the Formation of Very Thin Anodic Oxide Films on Niobium

Description: A kinetic study was made of the formation of very thin anodic oxide films on niobium at constant current over the temperature range --10 to 70 deg C. Formation voltages were limited to the range below the oxygen evolution potential to eliminate possible interaction of an electronic component of the current with the measured formation field. It was found that the measured temperature dependence of Tafel slope agreed with that predicted by the theory of Mott and Cabrera. Using this theory, a zero… more

The Transfer of Plutonium Hexafluoride in the Vapor Phase

Description: Plutonium hexafluoride is decomposed by heat, by its alpha radiation, and by reactions with most materials of construction. Laboratory experiments were performed to investigate means by which plutonium losses due to these reactions can be minimized during vapor-phase transfers of the compound. The experiments showed that plutonium hexafluoride vapor could be transferred satisfactorily through well fluorinated nickel equipment in a stream of fluorine or helium. The decomposition product of pluto… more

Metallurgical Examination of HRT Leak Detector Tubing and Flanges

Description: After several failures had occurred in the HRT leak detector system, several lengths of this tubing were removed for metallurgical examination. The tubing was of type 304 stainless steel and was 1/4" in diameter with a 0.065 wall. The tubing had been purchased as three different lots, the first in 45 ft. lengths and the other two as standards lengths. Tubing from the first lot was used primarily for the shield penetration and, therefore, sections of it are present in all lines of the system. It… more

Coal Geology of the White Oak Quadrangle, Magoffin and Morgan Counties, Kentucky

Description: From abstract: The White Oak quadrangle lies near the western edge of the eastern Kentucky coalfield and includes approximately 59 square miles of parts of Magoffin and Morgan Counties, Ky. The outcropping rocks are equivalent to most of the Breathitt formation of Pennsylvanian age. The regional southeast dip of the rocks is interrupted by the Irvine-Paint Creek fault, the Caney anticline, the Grape Creek syncline, and the Johnson Creek fault.

Experiments on Antiprotons: Cross Sections of Complex Nuclei

Description: Experiments are described that have been designed to measure separately annihilation and reaction cross sections for antiprotons of approximately 450 MeV on oxygen, copper, silver, and lead. A new and more luminous spectrograph has been built for this experiment. The antiproton cross sections a r e compared with total proton cross sections, and are found to be larger by a factor varying from 1.74 for oxygen to 1.39 for silver. Calculations based on the optical model give a reasonable connection… more

Analysis of horizontal-tail loads in pitching maneuvers on a flexible swept-wing jet bomber

Description: From Introduction: "The analysis of flight data in the present report is, to a large extent, based on analyses and information contained in references 1 and 2 for wing deflections, reference 3 for horizontal-tail parameters, reference 4 for airplane lift-curve slopes and angles of zero lift, and reference 5 for wing centers of pressure."

Horizontal-Tail Parameters as Determined From Flight-Test Tail Loads on a Flexible Swept-Wing Jet Bomber

Description: Report presenting an analysis of horizontal-tail loads on a flexible multi-engined jet-propelled swept-wing medium bomber to determine the tail lift-curve slope due to tail angle of attack, tail-lift curve slope due to elevator deflection, tail pitching-moment coefficient due to elevator deflection, downwash factor, and elevator effectiveness factor. The effect of the stabilizer, effects of elevator flexibility, and effects of wing stability are presented.
