A Method for Neutron Energy Measurement

This technical report discusses a method proposed to measure neutron energies by accurately determining the momenta of recoil protons in a magnetic spectrometer specially designed for this purpose. The main consideration in the design of the spectrometer is the shielding of the detector from the high radiation background associated with intense neutron beams.

The Thermal Conductivity of Uranium (open access)

The Thermal Conductivity of Uranium

Abstract. The thermal conductivity of uranium as a function of temperature is measured by comparing its conductivity with that of a sample of brass. An absolute measurement is then made of the conductivity of the brass sample. The thermal conductivities as a function of temperature of two samples of extruded uranium rod are given.

Thermal Stresses Arising from Defective Strip in Bond

Stresses set up by an insulating strip in the bond are estimated and found to be small compared to those normally present without the defect.
