From abstract: "This project was a study of electrostatic classification of submicron aerosols. Classification of particles as small as 0.006-[mu]-diameter was shown to be feasible, and good classification of atmospheric dust was achieved. However, a practical solution to the problem of overlapping between particles larger and smaller than 0.1 [mu], the point of minimum electric mobility, was not found."

Internal-conversion coefficients may be thought of as consisting of two parts: a usually dominant part which depends only on the atomic number and the nuclear transition energy, and a usually small part depending explicitly on nuclear transition matrix elements. This latter part arises from the penetration of the converting atomic electrons within the transforming nucleus.

The discovery of the vector meson which mediates the weak interactions, W,1 would be of extreme importance for weak interaction physics and for field theory in general. The W, if it exists, will be made in a variety of processes such as v+N →W+ + e- + N, or n- + P →W- + P, or, as studied in this note, P + P → D + W+. The W couples to leptons with a dimensionless constant [constant not transcribed] where G is the Feral constant defined t=so that [constant not transcribed]. Thus for [equation not transcribed] and the smallness of this constant is, evidently, what makes any of the above processes difficult to detect. The W may have a variety of decay modes.

A previous report on this subject (Brookhaven National Laboratory, AGS Internal Report, ECR-4) described in detail the methods of measuring the injected and accelerated proton currents in the Brookhaven AGS up to May 1961. At that time the accelerated current was measured by extracting the bunch frequency component of the signal given by a pair of radial position observation electrodes. The injected current was also determined by the signal induced on a similar pair of radial position electrodes. Absolute values were then determined from machine parameters and a wire measurement of the electrode sensitivities. Linac currents, however, were measured with transformers, calibrated by putting known current pulses through a single turn loop. As described in ECR-4, a crude current transformer was placed on the AGS ring and cross-calibration measurements were carried out using a half turn injected beam. The pickup electrode value was then found to be about 10% higher than that given by the current transformer. This amount of disagreement was within the estimated accuracy of the measurements and calibrations used at that time.

The problem of separation of beams of particles of different masses but of the same momentum at Bev energies is the subject of a great deal of study at several high energy laboratories. In this note we shall describe the problem and tabulate a few of the cogent parameters. Frequently the student of high energy interactions is faced with a beam of miscellaneous particles coming from an accelerator. By standard techniques this beam can be rendered approximately parallel and an inch or so in diameter. By passage through a magnetic field the beam can be analyzed in momentum. Now it frequently happens that the particles in which the experimenter is particularly interested make up only a small fraction of the beam and the exigencies of the proposed experiment may well demand that the background of undesired particles be drastically reduced. The problem is difficult because the velocities of the various particles are almost equal to each other and to the velocity of lights; this makes time-of-flight techniques relatively ineffective. The energies of the particles are almost equal so electrostatic separation also is difficult. Since the beam is already analyzed in momentum, further separation by magnetic means is impossible.

Sheline and Johnson made Mg28 through the reactions Si30(γ,2p)Mg28 and Mg26(α,2p)Mg28 in order to characterize and determine a decay scheme for the new nuclide. Lendner separated a magnesium fraction from the spallation products of the irradiation of chlorine, as sodium chloride, with 340-MeV protons. The 21-h activity that was present was deduced to be Mg28 from the 2.3-m half-life of the Al28 that was milked from it, as Sheline and Johnson had done.

"Design work was completed and construction initiated on a prototype field altimeter based on the gas density dependence of Townsend discharge current in an electrical discharge. The design of an ion tracer air velocity meter for laboratory applications, and construction of three units were successfully completed. Theoretical and experimental support is presented, showing the applicability of the ion tracer system to the accurate measurement of linear gas velocity. The operating range of the laboratory meter is 150 to 2500 ft/min at ambient pressures between 200 mu and 30.0 mm Hg. Further investigations on the application of the ion tracer concept to flowrate measurements are presented. By generating velocity profile curves with an ion tracer calibrated thermoanemometer, it was possible to determine the flowrate for 2 flow and pressure conditions; 37.5 cfm at 19.6 mm and 75 cfm at 9.8 mm Hg. Comparison with a calibrated Rotameter technique was within 5% in both cases. Also presented are some preliminary investigations leading to the development of a generalized ion tracer flowmeter for low gas densities. Results of some supplemental electrical discharge experiments in rarefied atmospheres are described. It was observed that electrical oscillations could be produced in a low density gas discharge, …

Nusselt numbers have been calculated for heat transfer to fluids flowing through annuli under conditions of uniform heat flux and fully established velocity and temperature profiles. The following cases were considered: (a) laminar flow, (b) slug flow, (c) turbulent flow with molecular conduction only, and (d) turbulent flow with both molecular and eddy conduction. These Nusselt numbers were determined for two conditions: heat transfer from the inner wall only and heat transfer from the outer wall only. The results were correlated by semi-empirical equations. The final results obtained on cases (a), (b), and (c) are applicable to any fluid, whereas those obtained on (d) are for liquid metals only. Wall- and bulk-temperature relationships for the above four cases were also determined. These relationships were treated as dimensionless temperature ratios. Both the Nusselt numbers and temperature ratios were evaluated over the r1/r2 range, zero to unity; the former being the case of the circular pipe, and the latter, the case of infinite parallel plates.
