From introduction comments: The present analysis is intended to examine the relations for "adiabatic" injection in general from a different point of view.

The following report proposes various methods in injecting and heating in mirror machines, using high-energy ion beams.

In solving the two-group, two medium equations for neutron diffusion in a finite one-dimensional multiplying system, the equations in each medium can be solved, and the boundary conditions used to determine the coefficients. This direct attack involves eight simultaneous linear equations. The opportunities for error are numerous, and, frequently, a great deal of accuracy is lost by subtractions; hence, it is felt that an alternative method of solution, in which numerical errors would be less likely to occur, would be desirable.

Technical report includes three reports of research progress: 1) Range Measurements on 190 Mev Deuterons, M. Stephan; 2) Meson measurements, C. Lattes; and 3) N-P Scattering, R. Christian.

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).
