In previous letters we have reported a Av resonance, called Y*1, observed through the study of the interaction of 1.15-Bev/c K* mesons in hydrogen in the Lawrence Radiation Laboratory 15-in. bubble chamber. We now wish to report the results of the study of the three reactions [formula](1), [formula](2) and [formula](3).

"Mesic decay of hyperfragments is discussed systematically on the basis of a previous model for hyperfragments. The general formalism for the two-body and three-body mesic decay was developed. The polarization-direction correlation and the angular correlation for the two-body and the three-body decays are discussed together with the decay probability. The formalism was developed so as to include the isotopic spin selection rule ( DELTA I = 1/2 and 3/2) for the mesic decays. The theory was applied especially for the low mass number hypergragments where it was found that the branching ratios of the two-body and the three-body mesic decays of /sup 3/H/sub i and /sup 4/H/sub i, (/sup 3/ H/sub i yields /sup 3/He + i/sup -/)/(/sup 3/H/sub i yields D + p+ pi /sup -/) and (/sup 4/H/sub i yields /sup 4/He + pi /sup -/)/(/sup 4/H/ sub i yields /sup 3/H + p + pi /sup -/), could be used for the determination of the spins of both hyperfragments. The fraction of the p-wave decay rate for the free LAMBDA decay obtained from the reaction /sup 5/He/sub i yields /sup 4/He + p + pi where the decay proceeds through two-resonant states (p/sub 3/2/ and p/sub 1/2/) …

Abstract: "Experimental investigation of aerosol particle capture by evaporating and condensing water drops has shown that capture is a function of the rate of water drop growth and aerosol particle diameter. Capture was found to be proportional to the rate of water vapor condensation and inversely proportional to aerosol particle diameter. The influence of water vapor gradient and particle size on aerosol particle capture during evaporation is insignificant. The experimental results are explained on the basis of particle penetration through the boundary layer of a water drop. An analysis of previous research on radioactivity of dry particulate matter in an urban atmosphere is included."

Abstract: "The objectives of this program are the development of zirconium-base alloys possessing exceptionally good corrosion resistance to 680 F water or 750-900 F system and/or improved strength at elevated temperatures. Approximately 100 binary compositions were prepared and screened by corrosion testing in 680 F water; selected compositions were exposed to 750 F steam. The data obtained indicate promising bases for ternary and quaternary alloys. Related investigations involving zirconium purity and heat treatment for improvement of corrosion properties are proceeding. Hydrogen pickup and mechanical properties will be used as acceptability tests on promising compositions."
