Preliminary Cooperative Sunshine Report (open access)

Preliminary Cooperative Sunshine Report

At present there are three Laboratories actively engaged in analyzing samples for the "SUNSHINE PROGRAM"; Lamont Geological Observatory, University of Chicago and the New York Health and Safety Laboratory. The U.S. Department of Agriculture Laboratories at Beltsville ae preparing samples for the University of Chicago, and are running normal strontium analyses. In order that the results reported from each of the three laboratories may be used to evaluate Sr90 distribution, a cooperative program has been in operation since August of 1953. This preliminary report lists the results on samples received and distributed by HASL. It is hoped that complete results from all laboratories will be available soon.

The Scandium-Yttrium and Scandium-Zirconium System (open access)

The Scandium-Yttrium and Scandium-Zirconium System

Technical report. From Abstract : "The scandium-yttrium and scandium-zirconium were studied by thermal and x-ray methods. Both systems are characterized by complete solid solubility in the low temperature hexagonal form and in the high temperature bcc form. In the Sc-Y system, there is a minimum in the solidus at 50 at. pct and 1365°C, while the solidus in the Sc-Zr system follows a nearly straight line relationship between the melting point of scandium and zirconium. There is a minimum in the temperature of transition from hexagonal to bcc in the Sc-Y system at 43 at. pct Y and 1175°C; while the temperature of transition is raised in the Sc-Zr system to a maximum of 1415°C at 30 at. pct Zr."
