Investigation of Shinarump Channels on Oljetoh Mesa, Arizona - Utah

From to the files: The Shinarump-Moenkopi contact on Oljetoh Mesa in the Monument Valley district, Arizona-Utah, was examined from November 5 to 15, 1951, to determine the location of and the mineralization in Shinarump channels. Twenty-seven distinct channel outcrops were located and examined. Three of these channel outcrops are mineralized and the remaining 24 are barren. Plate I shows the distribution of the Shinarump, the Moenkopi, and the DeChelly member of the Cutler formation; the location of the Shinarmp channel outcrops; the channel trend where there is good evidence for such a trend. The Hoskinrnini tongue of the Cutler was mapped with the Moenkopi as it is not a good mappable unit in this area. The three mineralized outcrops are indicated by the letters A, G, and AA while the barren outcrops bear the letters B to F and H to Z.

Alpha Particle Detection and the A. C. Operated Detector "A" (Howler) (open access)

Alpha Particle Detection and the A. C. Operated Detector "A" (Howler)

Abstract: This discussion concerns the operation, construction, and servicing of an alpha rate meter of medium sensitivity (30,000 alpha particles full scale per minute) and good stability. The instrument is equipped with an oscillator which increases both in frequency and loudness as the alpha activity is increased. The oscillator circuit includes an anticipator which causes a change in frequency depending directly upon the rate of change of alpha activity. Maximum sensitivity is approximately 100 millivolts full scale. Grid current varies from 1 to 5 x 10^-14 amperes. A general discussion of time constants and accuracy is included. Tables of stopping power, ionization and alpha activity are appended.

The Preparation of Anhydrous White Salt in Green Salt Type Box Reactors (open access)

The Preparation of Anhydrous White Salt in Green Salt Type Box Reactors

Report discussing a method for producing anhydrous TO2F2 in a box-type reactor, which takes approximately seven hours. "The method consists of a heating period of the charge oxide under oxygen, treatment, with anhydrous hydrofluoric acid gas combined with oxygen, and flushing or removal of the excess hydrofluoric acid and formed water with nitrogen gas."

Physiological Observations on Rabbits Exposed to Single Doses of X-Rays (open access)

Physiological Observations on Rabbits Exposed to Single Doses of X-Rays

Abstract: Most of the acute deaths among rabbits after single total-body x radiation occur in the first two days or at 10-15 days after irradiation. Signs of clinical depression are seen in survivors of sub lethal doses during each of these periods, termed the initial shock period and the principal acute radiation period.
