Report describing the helium atmosphere system in the Argonne National Laboratory's Facility 350. The atmosphere's ability to remove moisture, oxygen, and other impurities, how the atmosphere is purified, and experimental data regarding the use of activated carbon to absorb oxygen from helium are discussed.

Report issued by Oak Ridge National Laboratory that discusses progress and work performed by the Chemical Technology Division.

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 exhibited an anomalous peak in the ρ vs Τ cuve. The Hall coefficient of Li0.37WO3 indicated one free electron per alkali atom as was previously found for NaxWO3. The Seebeck coefficient of NaxWO3 depended linearly on x[superscript]-2/3 as expected from free electron theory. The implications of these and some other data are discussed."

This report, presented at the annual meeting of the Gerontological Society on November 10, 1961, expands on the research of Becquerel and Curies radioactive isotopes in medicine.
