"In this paper we solve for the diffracted wave which results when a weak hydromegnetic shock impinges on a rigid perfectly conducting half plans."

"Adlam and Allen and Davis, Lust, and Schluter have studied nonlinear plane-waves, propagating normal to the magnetic field, in a cold plasma. One solution of particular interest is a solitary wave, or single pulse. We present a method for solving the analogous problem for a plasma with finite temperature, in the limiting case where the amplitude of the wave is small and where, consequently, the width of the waver is very large."

Abstract: One hundred gram quantities of uranium dioxide, irradiated to burnup as great as 21,000 Mwd/MTU and previously reprocessed by AIROX (Atomics International Reduction Oxidation), were refabricated into high density pellets and encapsulated for re-irradiation.

Abstract: A 3000 kw (thermal) bayonet duplex tube model steam generator was performance-tested in a liquid metal test loop at MSA Research Corporation, Callery, Pennsylvania, under the cognizance of Atomics International.

"Activities related to Project Sherwood are summarized under the following topics: propagation of waves, macroscopic magneto-fluid dynamics, stability, particle orbits, cusped geometries, collisionless shock theory, and other subjects."

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."

"A finite difference approximation to a non-linear set of parabolic differential equations arising in shallow water theory is given. These difference equations were used to determine the shape and rate of propagation of a hum of fluid down a channel of constant depth. The hump of fluid was found to spread instead of steepen, as is the case in the usual shallow water theory."

"In the following report, a new technology is discussed which was first proposed in 1959, but which has been developed mainly since 1964; the in situ production of oil from shale by large underground retorts created by nuclear explosives. The first part of the present report describes this new process; the second part gives an analysis of the United States and the world endowments with crude oil resources and oil shale deposits and finally, the third part deals with expected cost estimates of this new technology as compared with present crude oil prices and potential costs of conventional shale oil production."

Abstract: An evaluation extending over a two-year period was made of primary system sodium and of stainless steel, zirconium, and beryllium specimens exposed in the hot and cold legs of a bypass loop in the primary system of the Sodium Reactor Experiment (SRE).

From abstract: Based on exploratory studies conducted over the last six years on the radiation-preservation of various marine species, it is apparent that low dose substerilization-radiation treatment of certain selected sea foods can provide advantages for the procurer, processor, distributor and consumer of edible marine products.
