[5 men playing basketball]

Description: Photograph of five men playing a game of basketball. Three men wear dark colored t-shirts, one of which has the number 3 on the back. The other two wear white shirts. All five men wear shorts. The man with the 3 on his back is in mid-jump, holding the ball aloft with both hands. The corner of the basketball goal peaks on the top of the photo.

Air blast studies with animals. Part II.

Description: Goats under Nembutal and mice were exposed in a shock tube modified to give longer-duration overpressures and equipped with ports for photography. Except for ear damage, displacement still seemed to be the major cause of injury in goats in the 4-foot section of the tube. However, it was found that mice were killed, apparently by pure blast, in a particular position in a particular type of side chamber attached to the higher-pressure, smaller-diameter, section of the tube. The relation between m… more

An Application of a Dynamic Pilot-Model to System Design

Description: Report describing the design, evaluation, and integration of controls and displays for advanced flight vehicles that present recurrent problems for the human engineer. This report presents a method for solving these on a fast-time analog computer and describes one application, centered on the use of a dynamic model of the pilot which can be instrumented on the computer along with the airframe and flight control dynamics, thus permitting design and evaluation of the total closed loop system duri… more

The Argonne 60-IN. Scattering Chamber

Description: The 60-in. scattering chamber used with the external beam of the Argonne 60-in. cyclotron is described. The scattering chamber permits operation over an angular range from 4 deg to 176 deg with an accuracy of plus or minus 3 min. of arc. The geometrical factors involved in the measurement of cross sections are known to plus or minus 0.1% or better. The angular positions of the detectors, the target changer, and an absorber foil system in front of the detection units are operated by remote contr… more

BIO-ORGANIC CHEMISTRY QUARTERLY REPORT DEC. 1960 THROUGH FEB.1961

Description: The current interest in the subject of fiber optics has brought about, among its many achievements, the development of a new technique for measuring refractive index. An instrument designed as a light-pipe refractometer or rod photorefractometer has been described by Kapany and Pike. these authors have presented both a theoretical study of the phenomenon and experimental results arising from a prototype apparatus. The range of applicability of such a device is limited, however, by the availabil… more

Comparative Boron Isotopic Analysis

Description: S>Surface ionization results for natural boron isotopic analysis are in agreement with other recent investigations indicating a B/sup 11//B/sup 10/ atom ratio nesrer to 4.00 than the more commonly accepted value of 4.31 based on BF/ sub 3/ analysis. (auth)

CONVERGENCE OF TRANSPORT SOLUTIONS FOR THIN SLAB CELLS

Description: Reported DSN calculations of reactivity worths of heterogeneities in ZPR- III fast critical assemblies, caused by use of various fuel plate and diluent thicknesses, have shown the necessity for high-order approximations to obtain convergence of flux shape and eigenvalue. Convergence properties of solutions for a simplified two-region, oneenergy-group, repetitive slab cell having regional thicknesses and regional cross sections representative of those encountered in some energy -groups of the pr… more

Corrosion of Aluminum and its Alloys in Superheated Steam

Description: The corrosion behavior of pure aluminum and some of its alloys in superheated steam was found to depend markedly on the method of starting the corrosion test. Pure aluminum samples survived only in tests that were brought to temperature and pressure very rapidly. Resistant Al-- Ni-- Fe alloys performed well only if a relatively slow starting procedure was used, suffering extensive blistering or complete disintegration in a test started rapidly. Over the range of temperature and pressure investi… more

Corrosion of Some Reactor Materials in Dilute Phosphoric Acid

Description: Corrosion tests in dilute phosphoric acid (pH 3.5) at elevated temperature are described for X8001 aluminum, 18-8 stainless steels, aluminized carbon steel, and Zircaloy. In a 307-day dynamic test at 18 ft/sec and 315 deg C, X8001 aluminum corroded at a rate of 1/2 mdd for the first 240 days. In subsequent exposures, the corrosion rate increased, but the total average penetration at 307 days was only 0.0005 inch. At 200 days, the total corrosion in this test was one-fiftieth that in distilled w… more
