Energy Transfer Between Modified Maxwell Distributions
Abstract: "A particularly conventional modified form of Maxwell distribution is chosen. The modified expressions for (a) the energy transfer from the ions to the electrons in a plasma and (b) the brehmestrahlung from the electrons are calculated. Using the expressions some possible steady-state conditions for the ion and electron gases are derived and compared with those for the usual Maxwell distributions."

Production of Large Energetic Neutral Deuteron Beams
Introduction: A proposal for using an energetic neutral deuteron beam for injection into a mirror machine has been made by Eugene Lauer. This report describes an experimental attempt to produce a large neutral deuteron beam. The beam from the NTA ion source was passed through a target of hydrogen gas where the charge exchange mechanics produced a beam of energetic neutral deuterium atoms.

Some Preliminary Investigations in the Use of a Supersonic Mercury Vapor Jet for Providing an Energetic Neutral Beam
Report discussing experiments conducted under the Livermore "Waldo" project to determine "(1) surface densities attainable in a supersonic mercury vapor jet stream, (2) the approximate efficiency of a mercury jet for neutralizing a proton beam, and (3) the mercury partial pressure contribution in the bore due to side streaming from the mercury jet."

Plasma Heating by Transit-Time Magnetic Pumping in Single-Transit Systems
Report discussing the heating of a plasma which passes through a series of magnetic pumping cells by applying the second-order theory of transit-time heating developed by Berger and Newcomb. From abstract: "Transit-time magnetic pumping in single-transit systems seems to be a feasible method of increasing plasma energy by amounts of the order of a factor of 10."

Plasma Containment Configuration
Report discussing a plasma containment configuration which appears to have no escape cone. From abstract: "Arguments are given to show how the containment process works, including experimental evidence deduced from published reports on "electromagnetic levitation."

Weighted Least-Square Polynomial Approximation to a Continuous Function of a Single Variable
Report describing a method of fitting "a weighted least square polynomial of order n to a set of m observation points" in order "to satisfy the need for a general curve fitting scheme" (p. 1).
