Abstract: The uranium occurrences near Goodsprings, Clark Co., Nevada, are divided into two distinct types which differ from each other in geographic distribution, localization of mineralization, mineralogy and origin. None of the known deposits is of present commercial significance and therefore this study emphasizes the genetic rather than the economic aspects.

Abstract: Two 20-foot-long, 7-foot-diameter, 10-gauge structural-plate pipes having longitudinal joints with 8 bolts per foot were buried and tested in the Smoky event of operation Plumbob at nominal predicted pressure levels of approximately 170 and 195 psi.

From introduction: This report is based on the field and laboratory studies of the uranium mineralization in the vicinity of Goodsprings, Clark Co., Nevada. The location of the region is shown in figure 1.

Abstract: Electrical resistance measurements and metallography were employed in a study of the kinetics of the gamma to gamma prime transformation in the uranium-molybdenum system at 16 wt% molybdenum.

The following progress report describes the examination of elements removed in comparison to a previous study on the power facility reactor operations.

This report for December, 1947 describes progress in ore dressing and pyrometallurgical studies, chemical work on phosphates, and analytical work.

The following document is a compilation of technical reports concerning the technical aspects of the Wagon Wheel Project studies, studies that analyze underground nuclear explosions.

This document is a sequel to HW-30226, "Steady State Temperature Distribution in a Solid Slug." A primary feature of the present as well as the former paper is a treatment of the stand heat flow equation in a manner which accounts accurately for the dependence of the thermal conductivity, K, on temperature, v.

This report describes the design, construction and operation of a sub-critical nuclear reactor, intended for college teaching of reactor physics and of nuclear phenomena.

Attempts to secure a high degree of synchronization of cell division of the Krebs mouse ascites carcinoma, by combined use of aminopterin and citrovorum factor, and by use of colchicine and N-acetyl colchinol, were unsuccessful. In the course of the work, a new method for securing smears of ascites tumor cells was out, which we believe will be found useful

The adsorption of acetic and oleic acids on the surface of thoria was studied by means of infrared spectroscopy. An infrared analysis of the adsorbates before and after adsorption using differential double bean methods indicated that the adsorption of organic acids on thoria surfaces occurs by an esterification reaction between the organic acid and the hydroxylated thoria surface. Ammonia vapor will not adsorb on thoria, indicated the basic character of the hydroxylated surface.

This technical report constitutes a brief review of the work undertaken, entirely or in part, under the Contract AT(30-1)-1772 with eh United States Atomic Energy Commission. The work published during 1959 is listed at the end of this report and copies of the reprints or reports are attached where available. These investigations have been concerned with the examination of defect production and behavior as it may be observed by high frequency ultrasonic attenuation and velocity (modulus) changes in such materials as quartz, silicon, germanium, alkali halides (especially NaCl and XCl), high purity aluminum, and glass containing boron. The irradiations used are cobalt 60 gamma-ray irradiation and the reactor irradiation obtained in the Brookhaven National Laboratory graphite reactor.
