Compton Scattering on Nucleons (open access)

Compton Scattering on Nucleons

From introduction: "The present paper deals with a classical calculation in which some of the meson effects can be included to all orders in the meson-nucleon coupling coupling constant, in particular those having to do with the gyration of the nucleon spin and isotopic spin. Such a treatment leads to results qualitatively different from the weak coupling calculations."

Production of Neutral Photopions as a Function of Atomic Weight (open access)

Production of Neutral Photopions as a Function of Atomic Weight

Thesis discussing the relative yield of neutral pions from elements in a reaction "as a function of the quantum-limit energy (the maximum energy of the quanta in the bremsstrahlung beam) of the Berkeley synchrotron." Interpretation of the results leads to values for the mean free path for absorption of the neutral pions in nuclear matter.

Scattering of K<sup>+</sup> Mesons Off Protons (open access)

Scattering of K<sup>+</sup> Mesons Off Protons

The total K/sup +/-p cross section was measured at the three K/sup +/- meson energies 175 er inch per 25, 225 er inch per 25, and 275 er inch per 25 Mev and the differential scattering cross section was measured at 225 Mev. The K/sup +/-p nuclear force was shown to be repulsive from the observed constructive interference with Coulomb scattering. The differential c=oss section was otherwise isotropic and could arise from either pure S-wave or pure P- wave scattering. Subtracted dispersion relations were applied to these data and the rest of the available K proton scattering data. The statistical errors on the data were found to be too large to determine the K-hyperon relative parity. However, if the K DELTA and K SIGMA relative parities are assumed to be the same, then if the coupling were scalar, the coupling constant g/sup 2/4 pi would be less than 0.6; if pseudoscalar, less than 10.

Electric Conduction in an Oil-Pumped Vacuum System (open access)

Electric Conduction in an Oil-Pumped Vacuum System

The leakage of electricity aoross a vacuum space in an electrostatic generator which employs a mixture of Sr/sup 90/ and Y/sup 90/ as the source of charging current was investigated. The vacuum is obtained by means of an oil pump. The leakage was shown to consist of a flow of positive and negative particles between the anode and the cathode. The positive particles were found to be primarily organic ions produced in a layer of oil on the surface of the anode. The negative particles were shown to be mostly electrons. Yields of secondary negative particles and secondary positive particles produced by average positive particles in the energy range from 50 to 200 kev were measured. Yields were found to be dependent on the nature of the target material as well as on the energy of the incident ion. A mass spectrometer was employed to study the nature of the positive ions. Most of these were charged fragments of organic molecules. Neutral particles were attributed to dissociation of a portion of positive ions during their flight from the anode to cathode. Electrons, most of which originate at the beta source, are presumed to be the agent for positive ion production. …

Control Aspects of Very High Flux Research Reactors (open access)

Control Aspects of Very High Flux Research Reactors

Submitted to Rensselaer Polytechnic Inst. The computation of reactor characteristics over a fuel cycle in a way suitable to the investigation of the control aspects of the reactor problem is considered. The dynamic problem including as independent variables the neutron energy, the spaces and time was studied. An additional condttion of versatility in the method used to obtain the solutions is necessary to explore the control aspects of the problem. The normal possibilities of the analog computers were surveyed, and a method was found to solve the reactor dynamic problem. The classical approach of considering the neutron energy dependency in groups and the spatial dependency in reactor regions is used. Only cases of regular symmetry are considered, so that the reactor three dimensional configuration is reduced by analytical methods to the study involving one space coordinate. Time is considered as a continuous variable. The Mighty Mouse Deactor is simulated, and the analog results are compared against published data. With the spatial dependency represented by three core and three reflector regions, the fast and slow flux distributions are within 5% of the digital computer solution of the same problem. At the end of the fuel cycles the flux distribution is essentially …

Complete Determination of Polarization for a High-Energy Deuteron Beam (open access)

Complete Determination of Polarization for a High-Energy Deuteron Beam

please delete the no. 17076<><DSN>13:017077<ABS>The P/sub 1/ multigroup code was written for the IBM-704 in order to determine the accuracy of the few- group diffusion scheme with various imposed conditions and also to provide an alternate computational method when this scheme fails to be sufficiently accurate. The code solves for the spatially dependent multigroup flux, taking into account such nuclear phenomena is slowing down of neutrons resulting from elastic and inelastic scattering, the removal of neutrons resulting from epithermal capture and fission resonances, and the regeneration of fist neutrons resulting from fissioning which may occur in any of as many as 80 fast multigroups or in the one thermal group. The code will accept as input a physical description of the reactor (that is: slab, cylindrical, or spherical geometry, number of points and regions, composition description group dependent boundary condition, transverse buckling, and mesh sizes) and a prepared library of nuclear properties of all the isotopes in each composition. The code will produce as output multigroup fluxes, currents, and isotopic slowing-down densities, in addition to pointwise and regionwise few-group macroscopic cross sections. (auth)

A Structural Analysis of The Brothers Karamazov

The purpose of this thesis is to reveal the structural unity of The Brothers Karamazov through the isolation and analyzation of the various techniques used by Dostoyevsky to unify the novel. In order to retain more than a few impressions and remembrances of outstanding events, in order to retain the novel itself, the reader needs to be aware of the structure of the work. If the fullest realization of the novel depends upon the reader's perception of its structure, the structure becomes the important critical element.

The present investigation yielded an orange product upon refluxing 2-butyramido-3-chloro-1,4-naphthoquinone and 2-aminopyridine in ethanol. When this material was purified, by recrystallization from glacial acetic acid, the melting point was 306 [degrees]. This compound has been shown to be benzo(d)pyrido(a)-benzimidazole-5,12-quinone by the present investigation.

A Comparative Study of the Reading Interests of Junior and Senior Students in Ten Texas High Schools

The problem undertaken in this study was that of making an effort to determine, in so far as was possible, the reading interests of the students enrolled in the high school at Nocona, Texas, during the 1954-1955 school session. A secondary phase of the problem was to compare these reading interests with those of students enrolled in nine other typical high schools of comparable size in other sections of Texas, as determined by means of a questionnaire survey.
