Fission Fragment Energy Deposition Efficiency
Technical report describing how to estimate the energy deposition efficiency of the kinetic energy of recoiling fragments from nuclear fission in a chemically reacting system. Since it is not always possible to directly measure the deposition the report describes how to estimate through the aid of fission fragment range data.

A New Chlorophyll from Green Bacteria
The green photosynthetic bacteria are characterized by the presence of either chlorobium chlorophyll (bacterioviridin)-65o or chlorobium chlorophyll-66o (numerical designation based on the position of the red-absorption peak in ether) z. Most strains of Chlorobium contain chlorophyll-66o which has its major red peak between 74 ° and 75 ° m/~ in FiFo. KATZ AND WASSINK z first reported an additional minor absorption peak at 81o mF for Chlorobium limicola in vivo and a corresponding minor peak at 780 m F in ethanol extracts. LARSEN (Figs. 6-11 in ref. 3) also observed this 8Io-mF absorption band in another Chlorobium strain and a corresponding peak at 77 ° m/~ in acetone extracts. In strain L of C. thiosulfatophilum the minor red peak appears at 800 mF, clearly resolved from the main peak of chlorophyll-65o at about 725 m/~ (see refs. I, 4). We have observed the minor red peak once again in Chloropseudomonas ethylicum, strain 2K (refs. 5, 6), as a shoulder at about 81o mF on the side of the 75o-mF peak of chlorophyll-66o (ref. 7). The evidence presented in this paper indicates that the absorption peak appearing between 800 and 81o m/, in vivo does not belong to chlorophyll-65 o (or …

The Biological Effects of heavy Cosmic Ray Particles
Technical report investigates creating a microbeam of deuterons to simulate cosmic rays and the results of brain irradiation, irradiation of the eye, and irradiation of hair follicles of mice. The report's conclusion was that "astronauts exposed to heavy primary particles over a period of some weeks would be expected to develop gray hairs, but this is the only significant biological damage they would suffer."

The Solvent Extraction of Thorium by Thenoyltrifluoroacetone and the Influence of Aqueous Complexation by the Chelating Agent
Technical report investigating the solvent extraction of thorium. The solvent extraction of thorium by the chelating agent, thenoyltrifluoroacetone (TTA), has proved to be a very effective tool for studying the complex ion chemistry of thorium. This study led to the establishment of the existence of aqueous complexation by the chelating agent.

Problems of Bone Marrow Cell Transfusions
This technical report explores bone marrow cell transfusions and the effectiveness of treatments in both animals and humans in the clinical setting. It also proposes a means by which to label bone marrow prior to transfusion in order to follow the fate of the cells. Includes six figures to accompany the findings of this report.

The Angular Dependence of Thermal Neutron Spectra in Lattices
This technical report discusses techniques that have been developed for "computing the angular thermal flux spectrum emerging from a lattice. These methods are applied to water lattices and it is found that the computed spectra are sensitive to the geometrical description of the lattice, but insensitive to the anisotropic scattering by water. Comparisons with measured spectra indicate that corrections for gradients and the finite size of the experimental lattice are important." -- from abstract (p. 3).

Tracers, Transfer Through Membranes, and Coefficients of Transfer
From abstract: "The rate of flow of a tagged species of a material substance through a permeable membrane is proportional to the rate of flow of the substance itself when, and only when, the species mol [sic] fraction of the substance is the name on both sides of the barrier. The ratio of the osmotic transfer coefficient of a substance in a particular barrier to the exchange coefficient, determinable with a tracer, is greater than one."

Electromotive Force of Transfer Systems Containing Membranes
Report describes a few experiments designed to test the analysis of some systems where chemical energy can be converted to electric energy. From Abstract: "If a chemocouple is defined as an isothermal closed circuit, composed of two or more homogeneous ionic aqueous phases separated by two or more barriers of different sets of ionic transport numbers, we find that a spontaneous electric current flows in the closed circuit."
