A Method for Monochromatizating and Precise Point Focusing of X-Rays and its Application in Low Angle Diffraction Studies (open access)

A Method for Monochromatizating and Precise Point Focusing of X-Rays and its Application in Low Angle Diffraction Studies

A principle for bending crystals with a minimum of strain so that they will focus x-rays and gamma-rays accurately to a point is explained. Detailed calculations are made of the aberrations in the foci resulting from various applications of the principle. the application of the principle in making a point focusing monochromator for low angle x-ray diffraction studies is discussed, and theoretical and experimental determinations of the reflection coefficient of the crystal are compared. A few experiments in low angle diffraction from biological materials using the new monochromator are described, and the results are compared with those obtained using other instruments.

The Nature of the Axioms of Relativistic Quantum Field Theory (open access)

The Nature of the Axioms of Relativistic Quantum Field Theory

"The formulation of field theories by means of Wightman functions is studied. It is shown that, given two field theories that satisfy all the axioms, one can construct a family of Wightmsn fields with the same properties by a process of superposition of Wightman functions. The condition of unitarity is formulated without reference to asymptotic conditions, and it is proved that the Wightman fields constructed by the superposition process (starting with "unitary" fields) fail to preserve unitarity."

Cobalt (II) Halides as Electrolytes in Acentonitrile (open access)

Cobalt (II) Halides as Electrolytes in Acentonitrile

"The electrical conductance of CoCl2 and CoBr2 from 10−4 to 10−1 mol/l over the temperature range 0–35°C is reported. The effects of water as trace impurity, and the halide common ion effect on conductance are examined. The properties of these solutes are also examined using spectrophotometry and transport numbers. Crystalline “solvated” compounds, of empirical formulae [CoX2(CH3CN)3]x can be separated from the saturated solutions. The magnetic susceptibilities of the crystalline substrates are in accord octahedral and tetrahedral symmetry for the cationic and anionic species in these “solvates”, the bonding in both being the spin-free type for divalent cobalt. From the optical properties of the solutions it is apparent that the “anomalous” properties of these electrolytes can be understood in a series of simultaneous processes under Mass-Law control, in which CoX2, CoX42−, Co(CH3CN)62+ and [Co(CH3CN) 62+CoX42−]° are predominant."

From abstract: During the summer of 1977, 1268 water and 1206 sediment samples were collected from 1292 lakes and streams throughout the 33 600-km2 area within the boundaries of the McGrath and Talkeetna National Topographic Map Series quadrangles in south-central Alaska. Each of the water samples was analyzed for uranium and 12 other elements, and each of the sediment samples was analyzed for uranium, thorium, and 41 other elements. All of the field and analytical data are listed in appendixes to this report, but only the uranium and thorium data are discussed herein.
