The Higher Fluorides of Plutonium (open access)

The Higher Fluorides of Plutonium

A systematic set of thermodynamic data for most of the known compounds of plutonium is presented. From earlier data present, it is now possible to extend the tabulation of data for the compounds of plutonium to include PuF(4), PuF(5), and PuF(6).

Evidence For The Angular Distribution of Negative Pions Produced in n-n Collisions (open access)

Evidence For The Angular Distribution of Negative Pions Produced in n-n Collisions

The angular distribution of charged pions from 100 = 30 Mev neutron bombardment of C12 and Be9 has been measured. These data may be used to infer, by subtraction, the identity, within limits, of the [formula] and [formula] angular distributions.

Energy-Dependent Albedo (open access)

Energy-Dependent Albedo

From abstract: "Within the framework of age theory an expression is developed which represents the probability of a neutron being reflected with an energy loss corresponding to age, v, as a function of reflector thickness."

Shock-Tube Experiments at University of Oklahoma and Cornell University (open access)

Shock-Tube Experiments at University of Oklahoma and Cornell University

Abstract: "The shock-tube experiments of Professor R. G. Fowler and his co-workers at the University of Oklahoma, and of Professor Arthur Kantrowits and his group at Cornell University, are reported by the author, who visited the laboratories of the two groups. Fowler's group has studied expanding low-pressure sparks; Kantrowits and his group have studied shocks produced by the adiabatic expansion of a compressed gas."

Absolute Cross Sections for Secondary Particles Produced in High-Energy Nuclear Bombardments

From abstract: Absolute cross sections for the production of charged secondary particles is the bombardments of aluminum, nickel, silver, and gold by 332-Mev protons, 187-deuterons, and 380-Mev alpha particles have been determined.

Energy Transfer Between Modified Maxwell Distributions (open access)

Energy Transfer Between Modified Maxwell Distributions

Abstract: "A particularly conventional modified form of Maxwell distribution is chosen. The modified expressions for (a) the energy transfer from the ions to the electrons in a plasma and (b) the brehmestrahlung from the electrons are calculated. Using the expressions some possible steady-state conditions for the ion and electron gases are derived and compared with those for the usual Maxwell distributions."

Investigation Of Windows And Shields For Neutron Point Sources (open access)

Investigation Of Windows And Shields For Neutron Point Sources

An empirical approach for the evaluation of shielding materials for macrochemical manipulations of spontaneously fissioning heavy elements (curium and californium) has revealed interesting comparisons. High-density metal halide solutions were compared with lead glass and with rare earth glass for use as shielding windows. Laminated shields of lead-paraffin and uranium-paraffin were compared with water and with paraffin for shielding walls.
