"The problems discussed are those encountered in assigning unequivocal emf values to electrode systems. Three electrodes which meet the requirements for reference electrodes most adequately are considered in some detail: these are the hydrogen, silver-silver chloride, and mercury-mercurous chloride (calomel) electrodes. An assessment is presented for electrode systems for aqueous solutions, organic solvents, fused slats and biological systems."

"A compilation made as part of a research program dealing with the thermodynamics and electrical conductance of inorganic electrolytes in polar organic solvents is presented. Conductance and association constant data are included dating from 1922 through June 1962, classified both by solute and solvent. Other features include a selection of the physical properties of the most commonly-used organic solvents, a guide to alkylammonium salts studied in four or more solvents, and a survey of conductance extrapolation techniques."

Technical report. From report : "The method of least squares refinement is based on the prediction of the theory of errors that, if the errors of the observed structure factors follow the Gaussian distribution, the most nearly correct atomic parameters will be those which result in the minimization of the residual R = Σi [√wi(|Fo| - |Fc|)i]2."

Technical report. From Abstract : "The crystal structure of bis(meta-chlorobenzoyl) methane has been determined by three dimensional anisotropic least squares refinement of scintillation counter data. The molecule was found to be nearly planar with a maximum deviation from the least squares molecular plane of 0.068Å and an average deviation of 0.023Å. Fourier transform techniques to locate phenyl rings provided the key to the structure determination. The intramolecular bond distances and thermal parameters of the oxygen atoms support a resonant, enol ring with a symmetric, intramolecular hydrogen bond. The structure confirms conslusions from the structure of bis(meta-bromobenzoyl) methane where the symmetry of the molecule was forced by the crystal symmetry."

Report describing the helium atmosphere system in the Argonne National Laboratory's Facility 350. The atmosphere's ability to remove moisture, oxygen, and other impurities, how the atmosphere is purified, and experimental data regarding the use of activated carbon to absorb oxygen from helium are discussed.
