Discussed is reactivity measurements on fast metal systems and moderated systems (graphite, BeO) used in rocket propulsion, pulsed neutron techniques used in graphite moderated systems, and BeO-U{sup 235} systems.

Relationships between surface appearance and actual depth of damage of sub-fabric burns have been established for only a few burns. Since surface appearance has been the most widely used criterion for evaluating the ability of fabrics to protect against radiant energy, it is of some importance to know whether or not bare skin and sub-fabric burns of similar appearance are of comparable severity. In this experiment it was found that both types of burn when produced by one second exposures and when graded 3/sup +/ moderate because of their surface appearance are, indeed, equally severe. Observations on healing of the two types of burn suggest no differences in the manner or rate of tissue restoration. (auth)

During the past sixty years, four elements beyond californium on the atomic number scale have been synthesized by the transmutation of lighter elements. The first preparation of einsteinium and fermium occurred in a thermonuclear explosion. Mendelevium and element 102, however, were prepared by a more conventional method, that of charged particle bombardment of elements of high atomic number.
