This technical report contains day by day experimental data reported in Engineer's Log Book, Electro-Chemistry Department, supporting Report No. EC-11 dated November 15, 1944, by W. L. Grube, Research Laboratories Division, General Motors Corporation.

From introductory paragraph: "In a slightly hypocritical water boiler the introduction of a single neutron may give rise to a fairly large burst of neutrons which dies out slowly. As was shown some time ago by Frankel and Nelson with the help of A. Horn the statistics of this multiplication process can be treated in a simple way for the hypothetical case that the number of neutrons produced per fission is two."

The document consists of two photographs and ten drawing of an electrolysis assembly for electroplating radioactive samples and one drawing of a thin-window Beta-counter. Included are a cell support, an electrolysis cell, electrolysis cell cathode, cell rack, Geiger counter absorber slide, carrier for electrolysis cell cathodes, and a cover for electrolysis cell cathode carrier.

Abstract: Most of the acute deaths among rabbits after single total-body x radiation occur in the first two days or at 10-15 days after irradiation. Signs of clinical depression are seen in survivors of sub lethal doses during each of these periods, termed the initial shock period and the principal acute radiation period.

From abstract: "Rats have been fed active strontium which was adsorbed on clay, while their controls were fed the same amount of active strontium in aqueous solution. There was no significant difference in the amount deposited in the skeleton between the two groups, and it is concluded that if ions are adsorbed on inert material, they will be eluted during their passage through the gastrointestinal tract."
