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."

The Concept of Sets Enchained by a Stochastic Process and Its Use in Cascade Shower Theory (open access)

The Concept of Sets Enchained by a Stochastic Process and Its Use in Cascade Shower Theory

From abstract: "In the present paper, the above methodology is investigated stochastic processes in general and it is shown how certain choices of sets can be made which preserve the linearity properties, though not necessarily the Markovian principles"

Capacity Factors in the Performance of Perforated Plate Distillation Columns (open access)

Capacity Factors in the Performance of Perforated Plate Distillation Columns

From abstract: "A study of factors affecting the vapor handling capacity of perforated plate liquid-vapor contacting columns. Vapor phase pressure drop across plates, liquid entrainment upward from plate to plate, and plate stability were investigated as functions of operational and geometric column parameters."

Small-Angle Neutron-Proton Scattering at 90 and 290 Mev (open access)

Small-Angle Neutron-Proton Scattering at 90 and 290 Mev

From abstract: "The relative differential neutron-proton scattering cross section has been measured in the range of center-of-mass angles from 5.1° to 36.0° for approximately 90-Mev neutrons and from 10.7° to 37.8° for approximately 290-Mev neutrons."

Preparation of Metallic Titanium by Film Boiling (open access)

Preparation of Metallic Titanium by Film Boiling

From abstract: The Van Arkel-deBoer method for producing ductile titanium by thermal decomposition of TiI4 vapor and deposition on an electrically heated filament is modified by film boiling TiI4 liquid on a heated filament, resulting in similar titanium deposition on the filament and liberation of iodine to the gaseous phase."
