From abstract: "This report describes work done on ARF Project C 216 from January 5, 1962 to September 15, 1962. The objectives of the program include evolution of an analytical research program to evaluate effects of environment contributed contamination on precise devices"

The isotopes of lutecium were used to measure the neutron temperatures in two collimated beans of neutrons emerging from HIFAR>

A survey of the aqueous coordination chemistry of beryllium is given. The possible use of coordination chemistry in the separation of beryllium from fission products is discussed, outlining methods for separation processes.

Technical report. From Abstract : "The determination of the crystal structure of bis(meta-chlorobenzoyl)-methane was undertaken by x-ray methods in an effort to clarify the ambiguous position of the hydrogen atom on the enolic form of β - diketones and hence in intramolecular hydrogen bonds."

The nature and types of internal molecular and thermal motions that polymer chains and polymer segments undergo have a great bearing on the physical behavior of polymeric solids. A relatively new tool is now available that permits us to observe and study internal thermally-induced motions directly at the atomic or molecular level rather than from macroscopic observations. this tool is nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy. This talk discusses (1) the nature of nuclear magnetic resonance, (2) NMR line shapes and the influence of temperature, (3) NMR line widths and second moments as a function of temperature, and (4) lists six general conclusions.

The Chase two-dimensional analyzer is a 64 channel by 64 channel analyzer with a magnetic drum memory and a buffered storage system. The memory capacity is 2 counts per channel. The maximum storage rate is limited by the drum speed and is about 800 counts per second for a featureless spectrum.

From Abstract : "The mechanism of the reactions of the halates, bromate, chlorate, and iodate, with dichromate in fused alkali nitrates has been shown to involve a fast equilibrium followed by a slow rate determining strip to give oxygen and halogen gases as final products." Experiments outlined serve as insight into the structure of fused salts or fused electrolytes.

Several of the plutonium assay methods were reexamined as part of a continuing effort to make improvements in these frequently used analyses. This investigation included a study of the controlled-potential coulometric, amperometric, potentiometric, and photometric titration methods and their applications to assays of delta-stabilized and alpha plutonium metal.
