"The formulation of field theories by means of Wightman functions is studied. It is shown that, given two field theories that satisfy all the axioms, one can construct a family of Wightmsn fields with the same properties by a process of superposition of Wightman functions. The condition of unitarity is formulated without reference to asymptotic conditions, and it is proved that the Wightman fields constructed by the superposition process (starting with "unitary" fields) fail to preserve unitarity."

Recent developments in the field of photoconductive devices made possible the simplification and attendant improvement of the recording anemometer system used with the portable meteorological mast. The purpose of the work was to produce a simple, reliable recording anemometer system compatible with the project's existing instrumentation. Of primary importance was reduction of maintenance without loss of accuracy. This report discusses some of the factors considered in the design of the system, describes in detail the electronic circuitry and mechanical components, and presents some performance data. The data obtained from a twenty-four hour trial run indicates that the system has fulfilled the requirements.

The linear thermal expansion of thirteen tungsten carbide cermets with cobalt binder was investigated experimentally over the temperature range from 68 to 1800 F. Cobalt contents varied from 2.5 to 60 per cent. Several compositions included additions of mixed carbides of titanium, tantalum, and columbium. The experimentally observed coefficients of thermal expansion for the various compositions were compared with coefficients analytically computed from the coefficients for the constituents. Three such analytical methods were evaluated. In one method, the coefficient of expansion of the mixture was computed by volume fractions and in a second method by weight fractions. In the third method, the computation accounted for the stresses set up in the mixture by the difference in thermal expansion of the carbide skeleton and the cobalt binder. The expansions of all these cermets agreed with the values computed by weight fractions or by the stress method within 12 per cent, and by volume fractions within 28 per cent. The cermets containing less than one per cent mixed carbides agreed with the expansion computed either by weight fractions or by stress within 8 per cent, the cermets containing more than five per cent mixed carbides agreed with values computed by volume fractions …

Facilities shall be provided in the 221-U Building for storing the metal solution product of the dissolution step in existing tankage from U, T, and B Plants until a reprocessing campaign is scheduled through Redox. This section shall provide a sampling tank for fuel accountability sampling and a pump tank from which the solution will be pumped via a cross-country pipeline to Redox for further processing.

Increasing temperature in an aqueous liquid system results in a decrease in liquid density and an increase in vapor density. When level is measured by the differential pressure method, temperature increase results in a decrease in the effective span f the instrument and a shift in zero. When the instrument reference leg is uncompensated, both zero and span shifts occur with the effects being most pronounced at the high levels. When the reference leg is compensated, zero shifts are eliminated (instrument zero is at 100% level for this type installation). For control purposes at levels above 50% of full level, the compensated reference leg installation will give the best results. For measurement of levels below 50%, the uncompensated installation is best. As errors in level indications will be produced, in either type installation, by temperature, pressure and steam withdrawal (power) effects, the placement of taps should be such as to place the normal or control level in the region of 50% indicated level.
