I am looking at the old problem of the ground-state energy of quantum many-Fermion systems. My tools will be a version of perturbation theory. It is plain that the ordinary, low-density rearrangement can not be used directly to compute the saturation energy and density of a system for which the two-body potential has a strong repulsive core and an attractive portion beyond the core, because the path of continuation from low-density to saturation density passes through the two-phase (vacuum, liquid) region. Likewise it is difficult to supply an expansion directly in lambda for fixed rho (density) because of the difficulty of the strong repulsive core and the tediousness of the calculations. My approach here is to expand the energy in a double series in k/sub F/, the Fermi momentum, and lambda, the strength of the attractive part of the potential. The plan is then to sum up, by the Pade method or a generalization of it, the k/sub F/ expansions of the coefficients of each power of lambda into a function of k/sub F/. The coefficient of lambda/sup 0/ is just the repulsive-core energy itself.

This paper presents a brief overview of the basic principles of bar codes and the equipment used to make and to read bar code labels, and a summary of some of the more important factors that need to be considered in integrating bar codes into an information system.

In the Consolidated Fuel Reprocessing Program at the Oak Ridge National Laboratory, a comprehensive remote systems development program has existed for the past five years. The new remote technology under development is expected to significantly improve remote operations by extending the range of admissible remote tasks and increasing remote work efficiency. The motivation and justification for the program are discussed by surveying the 40 years of remote operating experience which exists and considering the essential features of various old and new philosophies which have been, or are being, used in remote engineering. A future direction based upon the Remotex concept is explained, and recent progress in the development of an advanced servomanipulator-based maintenance concept is summarized to show that a new generation of remote systems capability is feasible through advanced technology. 20 references, 10 figures, 1 table.
