Abstract: "The determination of trace concentrations of uranium in synthetic materials, ores, soils and water by neutron radioactivation analysis is described. The principles of the activation analysis method as applied to trace uranium determination, the processing of irradiated specimens, and some examples of the results obtained by this method of analysis are discussed in this paper."

Report discussing the possibility of structural damage which is most likely to lead to dangerous release of radioactive materials, as well as "the effect of sudden loss to vacuum in a device such as that described in "Engineering Analysis, Mark 2 (4-28-51)."

In an effort to gain information on the nature of the photon-meson and photon-nucleon interaction, a study of the artificial production of mesons by photons has been made at the Berkeley synchrotron. The major effort of this research was concentrated on a measurement of the energy and angular distribution of u+-mesons produced when the photons strike a target of liquid hydrogen. Detection of the mesons is accomplished electronically by the technique of delayed coincidence.

A first iteration of the diffusion theory result is executed for the thermal flux distribution in a 7.5" graphite-uranium lattice cell using the integral equation formulation of transport theory.
